My Bad

As I was driving back to my apartment today, I saw a guy on the corner of Broom and Gorham carrying a bicycle tire over his head. I also noticed that he had his collar flipped up - a white and black collar, sticking way up over the back of his neck.

As soon as the thought "What a friggin' douchebag" entered my mind, I drove past him and noticed that what I thought was a shirt collar was, in reality, a massive neck brace.

Huh. Sorry about that.

Was it a neck brace or a cervical collar? If it's a c-collar, he was probably previously assaulted for popping his collar, so it's all good if you thought of him as a douchebag.

I couldn't tell, but you're right. I shouldn't assume he didn't deserve what he got, and that it wasn't directly related to the offense I assumed he had done originally. He may have just left from an encounter with Mr. T. And anyone who knows Mr. T knows he doesn't jive with popped collars.

(hote: I deduced he couldn't have had an encounter with Chuck, because no amount of popped collar/neck brace could cover up the obligatory lack of skull.)
