Filling my car up at the petrol station last night (cheap Tuesday) was a bit more, er, exciting than usual. When I got out of my car and picked up the nozzle, I glanced into the shop to see a bit of action inside, involving two youngish males who appeared to be threatening the two petrol station attendants behind the counter. So I kept filling up, avoiding eye contact while still watching what was going on, and eventually one of the guys decides to get out of there, and drag his mate with him (who didn't seem the slightest bit fazed) when the female attendant picked up the phone and started to dial.
Anyway, it turns out that the two guys were threatening to rob the petrol station. I think they were high on something, they both seemed really twitchy - in fact, when I first saw what was going on it looked like one of the guys was in a rap video by the way he was throwing his arms about... On the way out, they kicked a few things outside before sprinting off across the street.
During the discussion with the attendants, I offered to run them down if I saw then on the way out - it was the least I could do. I have no idea what I would've done if the guys were still in there when I finished pumping, or they actually made progress with their threat... Maybe I should go get some capsicum spray or something.
Nah, too girly. I'll just bring a cricket bat with me wherever I go.

You mean you don't already carry a trolley bar or equivalent in your car??? Or is that just a K'langur thing? hehe.
Must be a Clanger thing - I think the closest thing to a weapon in my car is my umbrella.
Actually, now that I think about it, I'm the type who would try to use a weapon and find that the person I'm trying to use it against manages to take it off me and attack me with it...
Maybe I should carry an air horn...
Rofl, good old Lang Lang XD
Best weapon is a key, stab em in the eye :3
