Today, while lifeguarding at my local beach, I noticed someone having difficulty swimming back to shore. I ran out and swam him back to shore. Once we were on dry land, he cussed me out for "emasculating" him in front of his girlfriend. FML

Hey guys, it was a pretty rough day so I wasn't surprised at least one person encountered trouble, and he didn't speak a word whilst he was gripped tightly to the flotation device. Once on shore I asked him if he was alright and instructed him how not to get caught in another rip current. He promptly to me to "f off" and that he didn't need help. At that point his girlfriend ran up to ask if he was hurt, and everything went downhill from there. I appreciate the sympathy, but it would be a little irresponsible of me to let the man die :)

That's when you tell him to prove it (with his girlfriend listening to you) that he can do it on his own.

OP, don't worry about him. He should be thanking you. :) Besides, if he drowned and no longer was alive, he wouldn't be able to use his balls and junk anymore!

What a small, fragile little man.

Perhaps you could have asked him if he wanted to gently placed him back in the water and take him back out to where you got him? His girlfriend would probably had a laughing fit!
