What would your advice have been?

A friend of mine just got back from his sons wedding. It was out of state.They got there a few days early and met the inlaws and other folks and around lunch time they all decided to go out and eat. The father of the bride was driving one car and my buddy got in the back seat and was waiting for the car to fill up. While they were alone the father turned back to my friend, points his finger in his face and said, "If your son hurts my daughter, there will be hell to pay!" Said he had a crazy look on his face too. Well, I told him I didn't think he could have done anything without being blamed for ruining the wedding no matter what the asshole said. So what do you guys think? What a crummy thing to do.

I would have pissed on the guy's leg to establish dominance, then said "Come at me bro!"

I'll tell him next time I see him. Thank you. Your opinion is very valuable and this conversation may be recorded for quality assurance. Press 1 for English...

Well if it's any consolation... I tried my damndest to talk him out of this...

If I were the guy, I would have told the asshole that it looks like he has a piece of spinach stuck between his teeth.

I think my son would expect me to drag the fucker out of the car and ruin his day and the fucking wedding.

Maybe he could have just played this tune on the radio just to piss the guy off!

I did that to my son-in-law, but not his dad. lol Men are very protective of their daughters, so your friend should just let it slide. Personally I would expect it from the fathers of my daughters-in-law to feel the same way, and they will feel that way until they die, same as I will. My son-in-law is keenly aware of that fact as well. I only feel slightly less protective of my daughters-in-law for that matter.

I would've simply said, "You might have me for your back up because I didn't raise my kid to be a screw up."

God bless you and your friend always!!!

A quick head shot would be my response to that.

Happy wedding memories.

It could be a joke or an expression of concern. Adding the part about the "crazy look" doesn't enhance the argument. It's best to ignore it and go on with the celebration.
