I broke a guys nose at Epcot......

[muse1983]

ummm - durring all this, were any names & addresses exchanged? If they were, JUST IN CASE, I would consider getting a copy of anything WDW wrote up on the incident. You COULD be sued - not saying it would be fair, but these days, people sue for anything....

Good point

 

[preludevtec01]

So you bust the guy's nose, break his camera, then are a total "Jimmy Thick" to the guy after it all "Sucks to be you". Class act!

 

[muteki]

Watch where you are going!!!!! Coming from someone who has been subjected to other guests, strollers, wheelchairs, and ECVs "bumping" into me. Simple courtesy of keeping a safe distance. It is really too much to ask? I guess for some it is.

How come so many people can successfully navigate the park without running into anyone else? I would be surprised if this was this "victim"'s first collision. Sounds like he was looking for someone else to fund a new camera for him.

I have found, especially at WDW, that the concept of "personal space" and what specifically it entails varies greatly from place to place.

He should have had the camera insured if it is worth more than a couple hundred dollars. I insure all the photography gear I take to Disney because I know something like that is bound to happen to me eventually.

I definitely understand him being upset over it all, but it sounds like he was being a total jerk about something that was a total accident. Good on you for offering to pay for a meal or something, but I definitely don't blame you for retracting your offer once the guy kept on being a jackass. :\


OH and by the way...
@ the fact that his wife shoved tampons up his nose!!!

 

[Mammymouse]

I'm trying to picture this nose breaking happening in my mind and came to the conclusion that Jimmy Thick must look just like his avatar to have broken someone's nose by an unintentional elbow! Seriously though, can you imagine what would have happened to the guy if Jimmy had REALLY wanted to whack him?!!!

 

[JustInTime]

This makes me sad actually. I don't know what I would have done. I think I would have cried if I had broken somebody's nose. :shrug:

Those were my same thoughts. If this actually happened the way OP described, the guy behind would have to be booking it pretty fast into the collision to cause such a serious nose break.

ummm - durring all this, were any names & addresses exchanged?

^Exactly. Getting/exchanging contact info should've been step #1, before any mention of free meals, and what not.

I wasn't there to see the alleged incident, but not all the pieces to this broken nose puzzle are adding up.

Sounds to me like this guy was tailgating and not watching where he was going. I can't stand being at a theme park when someone behind me in the line is right up my butt and constantly running into me.

Oh my gosh ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is so annoying, I try to keep my distance even with 4 kids, and do a pretty good job at it, I might add :goodnevil

EDIT: oh and Jimmy, thanks for starting another debate thread as the one we were working on earlier this morning was shut down by the Mods., which tends to happen when someone mentions King Louie on these forums! :wave:

What are you talking about?

 

[draybook]

Yeah, I hate when puny mortals run into me and break their bones on my exoskeleton like appendages too. I guess guys like us should have stayed on Mount Olympus.....

:ROFLOL::ROFLOL: ^Win.
But do you have as loyal of a fan base as the immortal OP stated he has?

 

[SleepingMonk]

It's actually very easy to break a nose especially with something like an elbow.

I doubt the guy's nose was "on the other side of his face" as the OP stated, but any cut in that very vascular area will indeed bleed rather profusely.

But too much is not adding up with this. The OP claims to be a weight-lifting police officer from Wisconsin, at least on user profile. Okay then, as a law enforcement official, he should know the first & foremost rule is to exchange personal contact info. And for a police officer, whether off duty or on, to use the: "hey, I'll buy you a meal and we'll forget the camera thing..", or to refer to the man as a bleeding "stuck pig"(irony)... that doesn't ride. My guess is this thread was an attempt to say, (like others have jokingly acknowledged), that "I'm so macho & tough that I can break someone's nose just by them bumping into me." It really came off (imo) as a brag. Then to begin the whole post by claiming such a "loyal" fan base he has of his threads....it just all comes off as narcissism at it's finest.
Not hating, just observing.

Am I the only one that thinks this was a made up story?

 

[mickey2008.1]

You're lucky it wasn't my kid!!!!!!!!! We all have to be aware of our surroundings.
EX OPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[the-reason14]

Am I the only one that thinks this was a made up story?

I kinda sense that too, but his posting style is like that so who knows!?:shrug:

 

[rustysgirl]

Am I the only one that thinks this was a made up story?

no ur definitely not the only one.
i'm sorry i just can't picture this woman whipping out a tampon & shoving it up his nose. just doesn't seem realistic to me. idk. just my gut instinct. but the fact that we are talkin about it & giving him the attention he craves doesnt help matters. :lol:

 

[Jimmy Thick]

How exactly would that have worked?

You eat with them, he mails you the bill, JimmyThick gift card?

Quite simple actually, I would have taken the little guy to guest services and paid to add a dining plan to his resort key. If he had wanted a signature dining experience, I would have added the deluxe dining option.

It does pay to actually know what Disney offers its guests I suppose.


But this Jimmy Thick gift card does intrigue me...


Jimmy Thick-No match...Ever...
