I got beat up by my neighbor...

[housenuts]

put a Jihad on him

Doing anything to him now is not going to solve anything. Ever think he made a serious mistake and has been regretting it ever since he did that?

I agree that talking about it would make you feel a lot better but beating the [censored] out of him is not the way to solve it.

Boot in his ass/American way/etc.

Or at least intimate that that's what's going to happen. It'll be funny, and you don't actually have to threaten him. Just remind him of the story. Maybe flex or something.

Personally I would do nothing, and believe that's the correct action.

However, for my viewing pleasure, I advise you go to start a fight with him and post about it.

Half of me says 'let it go', but grown men slapping about 12 year olds really, really pisses me off, even if it's not that hard.

That sort of stuff stays with people, and burns them up, and they just can't drop it...

All I suggest is don't get too keyed up. There's every chance he'll be embarrassed and apologise, and you don't want the adrenaline pumping when there's no cause for it.



Alternatively, you could go flirt with him, and tell him how 'manly' he was back then.

Fast forward to today. I'm back home for the holiday, and I get out of my car with my mom. I see my neighbors congregating in their front yard. We get into the house and my mom asks me if I recognize the guy wearing some sort of hat. I say no. She says, yup, its him.

Unless the guy wearing the hat was in a wheelchair or was in fact a ghost, your dad did not properly "handle things like a [censored] champ".

take Mrs. Mantooth out for a nice seafood dinner, make sweet love to her and then never return her phone calls.

that will teach him!

Honestly, I wouldn't let it sit. If it was some guy that beat me up when we were both kids, I could see letting it go on the grounds of a youthful mistake. But he was a grown ass man when the incident too place, he holds full responsibility for his actions (then again, I wasn't a snotty kid, maybe he gave you the assbeating your parents should have, and you should thank him, who knows). I wouldn't get any pleasure out of beating up an old bag pushing 50, but I'd probably make my presence felt. You should go over there and ask him if he still beats up little kids. Then ask him if he has tickets to the "gun show," and flex your biceps.

please?
