9. I had a naked man point a shotgun at me.

Feb 2016

He was drunk and vanished into the bedroom. He came back out --nekkid as an egg--carrying a shotgun. Pointed it at me and said he was gonna shoot me unless I agreed to sleep with him. I was drunk myself and not in any mood to put up with his bullsh*t. I told him put the gun down, I could see he clearly didn't have the balls to use it. (I shudder at that memory of how stupid I was when I was drunk, BTW.) He put the gun down and started screaming at me that he was gonna beat me for being such a bitch. I told him go for it, it'd probably make my day to get to kick the shit out of a dumbass.

I found out later that his "thing" was to get women alone and beat them while raping them. He liked to hear them cry and beg him NOT to hurt them. I think the only thing that saved me was that I was drunk and pissed off. Had I acted afraid it might have ended badly...
