Would you ever do something for "the lols" that legitimately hurts another person?
To everyone who thinks I was overreacting. It's sort of like this for me... All my life I've been told that I should be careful when walking home at night. All my life I've told my sister and friends to be careful when walking home at night.
It was just something I said, something that was passed down to me, something I didn't really believe.
But this incident has jolted me into a reality I don't like. You always think, "This won't happen to me", but now that it has, you're far more aware of the world, and the potential dangers.
More than anything, I'm disappointed that my bubble of "everything will be fine" has been popped, and I've been exposed to people who do things without thinking of the repercussions.
It's not the throwing of the eggs that has shocked me; it's an egg (despite the fact that it was travelling with the speed of the car + the force of the throw, so at the very least, 60km/hr). It's the idea that someone can do that and get away with it, and feel triumph for doing so.

news at 10: egg throwing has become synonymous with rape
I like things that make me feel stupid. - Ken Levine

also not to sound mean or anything but i have a friend that was raped like a week ago and she didnt over react nearly as much as you are about an egg being thrown at you
youre really making a big deal over nothing

o.o Some people react differently to certain things. If she's not psychologically damaged over being raped, I can't imagine what would cause her to go into hysterics. I've never had anything done to me physically with malicious intent, so for me it's a big deal. Sounds like your friend has some issues and may need some help. I hope you've been supporting her.
