Some c*nt took offence when he stepped out in front of me and I managed to avoid running him over. I asked him why he thought it a good idea to step in front of a moving car and he went absolutely bat sh*t. After perhaps thirty second of verbal abuse from him, (where admittedly I did suggest that his mum must be very proud of him), he went into McDonalds, came out with a steaming cup of Maccers coffee (the hottest thing known to man) and offered me more violence.

When I declined his offer to get out of the car for a fight, he took a run up and pitched his full cup of coffee like a baseball, through my car window and it hit me square in the eye. (To be fair, as I was moving it was a pretty good shot !) the cup of coffee promptly exploded all over me and the inside of my car

My thoughs (with a scalding face) went along the lines of:
Ow ! my eye !
I'm gonna tear your f*cking head off !!!
Ow ! my eye !!
OW ! MY F*CKING EYE !!!!!

He promptly f*cked off, I got his numberplate and phoned the police. There was CCTV everywhere, so the police are pretty sure they'll catch him.

As a result, I spent 3hrs in A&E this morning getting by eyes checked for burns. Turns out I was lucky, I blinked as the cup hit. My right eyelid and side of my face is scalded and bruised, but my eyes didnt' get burned. So I've got bruises, scalds and a mild concussion to my right eye. Eyesight is a little off due to the impact, but thee doc said it should be fine in about 24hrs or so.

The policeman asked if I'd be happy to go to court. I said I'd help build the gallows !!!!

(and there was sugar in the coffee, so there's sticky residue on every surface in the car !!)

    Are you sure you weren't asking for it Matt?

    If this guy goes to prison, who'll look after his children?

    You'll have a lot to answer for.

    The only time I swore at him was after he had repeatedly shouted something along the lines of "come on, get out of the car you pussy", to which I replied, in a very dismissive manner "oh f*ck off ya prick". (it was about 7.30am, I wasn't feeling that imaginative).

    Any other time, perhaps I might have been asking for it, but not today I'm afraid.

    He'd already ruined it by putting sugar in it...... Perhaps that's why he threw it, didn't like the taste. I suspect it was because he's a c*nt though.

    I mean what sort of moron would go into MacShite, buy a coffee just to throw at someone? I know their "coffee" is crap but...........
    If he had gone into M &S, and came out with a smoothie and chucked it at you, that would be funny!

    I'm glad that you are ok but you could have been scarred for life. As an alternative to beating the living sh1t out of him I hope he is prosecuted for GBH.

    Don't sweat it. I am sure that Jim is being mischevious and linking to the "Unbelieveable" thread.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Hope you're feeling better soon Matt. Some people are just oxygen thieves, hope this gets sorted by the rozzers.

    p.s - Can I have the little token from the coffee cup? One more and I get a freebie :)

    Unbelievable.So much for the feel good factor-there are some unhinged individuals out there that have no restraints.At least he didnt pull a knife.Glad it wasnt worse but keep on at the Police to chase him down-they will certainly charge him if they can identify him.
    Whats the solution? Just pedal faster you baby.

    Why were you waiting for him to come back out of McDonalds. Presumably you weren't expecting him to shout you a happy meal?

    Anyway, any witnesses? This should be a very easy ask, even for the local plod.

    Keep us posted as to how it goes. And I do hope you were not to badly or permanently injured.

    In fairness that was the question I wanted to ask, but felt I'd get hammered for asking, after the 'other' thread.

    I wasn't waiting :lol: , I'd gone thought the drive through for a coffee. He was waiting by the door (which is by the exit for the drive through) when I came out. He actually pointed me out to his mate ! I drove past, at which he hurled a load of abuse at me, so I gave him a very dismissive "f*ck off", and drove on. At this he ran across the car park to cut me off and hurled his cup of coffee through the window at me.

    Fortunalely, it was on a retail park! There is CCTV everywhere and there's also the internal CCTV at MacDonalds to ID him from. I also got the reg of the car that he was in and the details of four witnesses, who had watched the whole thing unfold from their van.

    I guess that'll teach me to drink MacDonalds coffee :roll: :lol:

    You see, you've learned a valuable lesson!

    And, of course, McDonalds 'coffee' is no longer the hottest thing known to man outside a meltdown after that court case in the states. Had this happened a few years ago you and the car would have been melted.

    And seriously - getting arsey with people at a McDonalds drive through? Surely you are pretty much guaranteed to get a violent response? That sort of thing doesn't happen at Pizza Express!

    Actually, I got a free coffee at the time, and I called in this morning to look at the CCTV and they gave me a free breakfast and coffee. Don't know how long I can milk that for though :lol:

    Was the coffee very hot? You could sue MacDonalds for not having a warning about having hot drinks thrown at you?
