Was driving through town earlier and slowed as a pedestrian was crossing, and then proceeded to the traffic lights and stopped. Anyways, glancing around as you do, I noticed the aforementioned pedestrian glaring at me in a rather angry manner confused A bit baffled, I looked to my left thinking it might be someone else, but when looking back he pointed at me, gave the beanshaker sign and then attempted a mindmeld with a lamp hehe

Haven't a clue what made him so angry, but just to warn you all that if you see a little fat man in surf shorts with a lamp-post shaped indent in his head, he might be a bit odd laugh

I assume he's peeved off at you for not stopping?! Possibly...

Yes, if there was a red light ahead then it would have been common sense to let the guy cross.

Edited to add: my mistake, I had to re-read the OP's post (watching the tennis). How weird!!

Yup! He was already in the road and strolling along but not looking at traffic coming towards him (from behind), maybe he thought I was closer than I was when I passed him?

Must have thought you were pretty close to him. Anyways, he might not get out much and wanted to enjoy the moment of bking you wink

Well he has a bruise on his head now from the lamp he walked into so he might watch where he's going in future rather than trying to act powerfully built hehe

P.S Forgot to mention he was walking along whilst glaring at me after crossing the road! Might be where the confusion came from!!

Obviously you should have told him to 'f**k off' then locked your doors.

Just sounds like your run of the mill bellend, you should've just pointed and laughed at him, that would definitely diffuse the situation wink
