Marlboro Man indeed.
But physical strength requires lots of physical exercise.
And mental strength requires lots of mental exercise.

In all seriousness try this.

Take a chair into your bathroom and sit there for an hour and see if you can remain calm.
If you can't , recognize that your core energy is negative and you are using distractions like food tv media alcohol drugs to cope.
That's not tough that's weak.

Weak people need pot , alcohol, phones, tv , sweet food, mouthing off about trump.
It's not strength , it's weakness.
They need a crutch to cope. Cry

I imagined Aqua like this :

Aqua is actually a close doppleganger for Tony abbott Wink

Geez I can’t believe it! There must be something in the air for such confrontational aggressions?
At 3.30 pm today I went to pick up library books on hold, then before going to buy seafood I felt like going for a punt at the pokies.
I parked nearest the entry where and in the outdoor smoking area saw a few tradies sitting around probably having an after work beer etc.
Half hour later I decide I will walk out $50 in front.

As I walk out the entry area, I noticed 2 elder guys on my left stopping to look at something.
There was an argument between 2 guys in the car park.
One was pointing the finger and mouth going, the other one turned to walk away nodding his head.
Then the finger pointer said something that made the other guy go back to him.
I walked to my vehicle and opened door, I looked over at them thinking if I get my phone out to video it, it will escalate. As I went to drive off I see 4 guys on the grass arguing and another tradie started hopping with his fists ready to box, the 4th tradie put his hands up in surrender and nodded no and stepped back.
I noticed a man in a car nearby opposite and he looked as if he was trying to look occupied with something in his car but he had his door open and looked ready to jump out.
I drive out of carpark, happy to see the tall young tradie put his hands up to not fight.

Should I have gone back in to tell security?
Well nothing happened and I’m thinking they all had a bit to drink!

But what a coincidence! I thought of you Aqua!
Me makes a note to go earlier to pokies before tradie Knock off time (I was dog sitting all day until 3pm)

Interesting sofia.

Tradies drinking ... Cope
Pokies ...bit of a cope.
I usually see tradies eating pies and Red bulls...cope.

Low consciousness living. Combative, dark energy , asleep , numb , unthinking masses
Sort of like a cow or a sheep.
Not surprising it's a place with animal like behaviour.

Bushwalking , art galleries, beautiful cathedrals and architecture
Joy, thriving , gratitude, high vibration , collaborative expansive
Higher consciousness living
Not likely to see a punch up break out in an art gallery or cathedral or bushwalk

My advice -

don't yell and carry on in such situations unless you are prepared to back it up with your fists.

You did well to avoid fisty cuffs.
