Did they fly there? Why don't they do a "brake stand" in their own vehicle?

Arrrrrg! This is a pet peeve of mine. I completely understand trying to deal with jokers like that. I'm young so I tend to run into younger guys and they have no shame in asking things like that. I won't even do it for them let alone give them a crack at it.

Default Obviously had too many drinks and given that fact ...

He may be a capable pilot when he is sober, if he really is one as mentioned in several other posts, but he cannot legally fly any plane if he has been drinking. Making me also question his ability to drive in that state of mind. I love the comment about them all being either pilots or seals.

You handled it very well.

I don't care if he's a pilot or if he's Dale freakin' Earnhardt Jr., nobody touches my car.

I think you answered your own question.... your at a bar, what do you expect? They were drunk...

Not just 'near' a bar, but in front of the bar in that 'special' parking spot. If I can't get that spot, I'll drive home two blocks, get my truck and drive back.

...and no, he's not an idiot becuase he's drunk, hes an idiot becuase of what he asked me. Earth to dude... come in dude.

You should have asked if you could take his GF/Wife home and pound on her for a while.

Navy guys! I have been in the Navy for years and this story doesn't surprise me at all. I know a few guys on the submarine I just left that would ask stupid questions like that too...amazing what a few beers can do to people!
