RE: NEC-HE-shrine chat?

From Paul England <xxxxxx@mail.utexas.edu>

Well, small-man's complex usually refers to penis-size as well.
The guy that gave me his small-man's complex theory was this
HUGE black guy that i used to work with (and talked to the other
day).  He has now split his theory into two - small-man's complex
and penis-envy.  In Japan, both still apply... I'm definitely sure
compared to this guy man.  Looked like he could break a truck in
half with his barehands.

One friend of mine got in a fight in Shinjuku station.  Anyone that has
been there knows that Shinjuku is quite seedy, and the only other
place that has lowlifes as scummy in all of Japan are the depths
of Roppongi. Anyways, this Japanese guy that obviously lived in the
states for a while (fluent English) kept INSISTING that he help my
poor white friend b/c he didn't know how to buy a ticket from the
machine.  After kindly asking three times, he told him to get off
his back or 'he would have to punch him.'  So, the cocky Japanese kid
comes back with "you're not going to punch anybody you wanker."
The Japnaese guy was right -- he didn't get punched, but he did
get a nice elbow in his newly broken nose and a shower of blood
on his shirt.  Of course he had two friends there that grabbed him
while the now disfigured cunt starting punching him.

At this point, my friend cares about one thing -- the acid in his keychain
that he threw across the station.  Just as he's figuring out what
to do (white people are guilty until your Japanese friend comes and
swears you won't do it again in Japan -- I'm not shitting you) about
the police, some other guy he new some kind of martial arts bailed
him out.  My friend ran every wicket home -- didn't pay for a single
ticket. Hehe.

  You know, I almost got into one fight here in Hawaii for the same
  reason...small-man's complex.  This dude was local, about 5 feet 1, and
all
  mouth.  I told him to bring it on...and he continued his eloquent mouth
  work...walked away pissed off...saying that it wasn't worth it.  Eh?
Yeah,
  right...whatever.  On the stupid side, one time I saw a military jarhead
  (i.e. big square head, no brain, false idea that you are badass) messing
with
  a huge Samoan...who he summarily pissed the fuck off.  When I drove off,
the
  Samoan was walking in circles around the guy, yelling at him, and prodding
  him.  The dork was doing that standard "smiling while sweating and
shaking"
  maneuver.  I imagine that after I left he became one with the pavement.
That
  is a bad case of "small-man's complex."  After having living here awhile,
one
  that is not advised, especially being fair-skinned like he was.  Guess if
  would be the same thing sorta, Paul, if you went up and picked a fight
with a
  Sumo.
