Ever had a time when you almost hit a stranger in public?

Let me backup and tell the full story before you think I'm odd for this. Because I nearly DID kick a man in public, and frankly the idiot was asking for it. My parents, brother and I had gone out to a movie one Friday night. It was a rare family outing. So movie ends, and we decide to go out for dinner. First place we went to had an hour wait. Best part is, my coat chose this moment to break (Zipper broke) AND my mother and brother decided to take up the doorway so I cannot get in. (Neither could be bothered to move to the left or the right so I could get in our of the damn COLD!) Any rate, it was decided this was too long, so we took off to another restaurant. This is where things went bad. Going to try and make a diagram of the situation here: ---dd--- |__m __| |__b __| ---me--- As you can see, they did it AGAIN! Either could have shifted to the left or right so that I could get inside, and out of the doorway. So I was already kinda in a bad mood because they did this to me TWICE, ignoring the fact I was freezing as they stood there, for whatever reason. But then some guy comes up behind me. This alone makes me nervous, I do NOT like having people behind me where I can't see them. But this idiot takes it one step further. He HITS me in the back, telling me the door is no place to stand, and to move it. I yell, strongly resisting the temptation to kick back because I am now extreamly uneasy, that there is no where for me TO go because some people are standing in the door. Finally my mother and brother take the hint and move. But the idiot who hit me doesn't bother appologising for it, or anything. No admitting that hitting me was NOT a good idea. We decided (Thankfully) to try a third place. I'm not certain I could have stayed around that idiot for the hour or so wait it was. Yes, I was that pissed off, and he's lucky he didn't get a kick for it. I managed, barely, to restrain that instinctive move.
