There was a time in my life near a decade ago that can be best described as wasted youth. It was a time when I hit the club almost every night with my best friend. Let's call him J. A philanthropist, poet, and a man of many hats. It used to be hip-hop fever back then, and we would always hit the joints around town, just to feel like kings on the dancefloor. Vodka-Redbull was our liquid of choice. It's both cheap and effective.
So there was a night when we managed to get quite drunk and I thought that I shouldn't drive at all. Hence it was decided that we should just drive a little to stop at a nearby 24/7 eatery. J went to the carpark a little bit further off than where my vehicle was. It was four o'clock in the morning, and true enough, there was a large entourage of gangsters clogging the midnight streets.
My impulsive, younger self could not stand for such public nuisance, and so I swung by their entourage at the side of the road. Without thinking too much, I flipped them a strong, erect middle finger. One that's mighty enough to send the message through thick skulls.
"Take it!" I said in our local language. Thanks, Redbull. And vodka.
With the courage of a valiant knight, I drove off with confidence after getting flabbergasted looks from those notorious folks in their motorbikes and sportscars. Little did I know they actually tailed me to the food stalls, right beside the twin towers in Kuala Lumpur. I was shocked after seeing about 100 people looking at my direction after getting out of my car.
After getting a few slaps and managing to cool the gang down all by myself, my friend arrived in his obnoxiously loud sedan.
"Do you know who am I? I am the king of Kuala Lumpur!" he shouted with bravado. It kinda reminded me of a scene in Scarface.
Needless to say, I turned into a punching bag. Hell, I even got my first taste of a flying kick to my face. My friend? He ran way and tried to take a meat cleaver off a kitchen nearby just to scare off the angry mob. But the chef said "No! That's only for cutting Tandoori chicken!"
