A Tribute to Charles Cao

Mar 05, 2004 00:17

I have a friend whose name is Charles, or Chaz as we lovingly call him. Or hatefully if your name happens to be Drew Lichtenstein and you're bitter towards life in general. Just kidding Drew, I love you. Sort of. But yes, as you've undoubtedly heard by now, some freshman made a good run at ruining Charles' shit with a big honkin' SUV. The better firsthand account of the actual event can be found at www.xanga.com/holycao86 , which is his xanga. The kid was driving a big ol' nasty explorer, when all of a sudden he drifted onto the curb and struck my friend in the back and side, hitting him so hard HIS FUCKING SHOE CAME OFF. Ronjon reacted in true form, yelling " OH SHIIIIIIIIT!!!!"...the kid is lucky I wasn't there, because RJ and I probably would've fucked him up then and there, and let Davita take care of Charles. Because if I get mad to the point of hitting people in soccer games, I don't imagine I would handle this situation very well. But I digress.

Charles Cao is one hardcore motherfucker. Charles was walking at an estimated 5 mph, and weighs around 140 at most. He was struck by a vehicle going around 30 and weighing easily over 1000 lbs. And HE fucked the Ford up worse than it did to him. Insane props to Charles for acting like a hardass in the most dire circumstances. The people better give him the side mirror he snapped off, so he can put it on a plaque and put that plaque on his wall, so it can be named The Mirror of Doom.

You cannot deny the absolute toughness of a kid who got hit so hard with a car that his SHOE CAME OFF, FLEW 20 FEET AWAY, AND REMAINS MIA TO THIS DAY. He's still truckin'. Charles, this one's for you man. You're way tougher than I could ever be, insane props. And if you want the freshman's head on a platter, give me 72 hours and I'll see what I can do. (Kidding. Sort of.)
