A favorite on /r/askreddit, or at least it seems that way to me.

I only have one, and it's not very entertaining.

I was on a bus going to work. A few stops before mine the bus gets cut off by another bus. The driver started yelling at the other driver then pulled over and got out of the bus to, I assume, escalate the conflict. We were near my stop anyway, so I got off before things could get hairy.

Ten years ago I went to a work colleague's stag-do. I got very drunk off of numerous pints of lager and shots and the night was going great, until we went to a gay nightclub.

Someone in our group got very belligerent with me when he was asking me what kind of drink I'd want. At the time, I thought he was going to seriously hurt me (the alcohol was probably clouding my judgement), so I quietly removed myself from the situation and literally ran from that place.

Unfortunately, the "friend" who I met up with after I bolted took me back to that place because he was more interested in scoring cocaine and dancing with other men than looking out for me.
