ReplyDelete"Hey pull over here so I can hit you with this bat."
"OK. And take my phone, too."
pretty odd.
Yeah I totally agree why would you pull over and stop and the person just get out and start beating you. Something is not adding up here. Come on there needs to be some serious investigation here. This is totally not adding up.
