Wow. Just wow.Ima Facultiwyfe wrote:When I was in third grade, there was this big bully of a girl, nearly twice my height, who used to delight in switching my legs with a long twig on the way home from school every day. I'd run and cry all the way home. Finally, one day in front of Rink's Grocery I'd had all I could take. I turned around and actually climbed up her and hung on until she fell backwards.

I love it! Reminds me of the scene in "A Christmas Story" when Ralphie beats up the bully.Ima Facultiwyfe wrote:When I was in third grade, there was this big bully of a girl, nearly twice my height, who used to delight in switching my legs with a long twig on the way home from school every day.

Most people say that is it is the intellect which makes a great scientist. They are wrong: it is character.

I've never been punched. Never been in a fight. Never punched anyone. I feel like something's missing in my life. But it's not like I'm about to go out and pick a fight.

Re: Have you ever been punched in the face?
Just remember that over yonder is all about "Fight Club." I suspect that most mods have either been punched or have punched in the face... or at least they have fantasized about it. And if you don't fantasize about it (as witnessed by OY moderator discussions about Fight Club), then something must be wrong with you.DukeUsul wrote:I've never been punched. Never been in a fight.

Great analogy. The first rule of OY moderation is you do not talk about OY moderation.

Re: Have you ever been punched in the face?
My best friend in California had never been in a fight either. He has a rather big mouth at times, not out of spite or malice, I just think he's clueless in some social situations. I attributed it to the fact that nobody ever punched him in the mouth when he was a kid. For me, that was a quick lesson (one that I don't condone btw) on when to keep my mouth shut. I told him all the time that if he ever got his ass whipped as a kid, then he would be nicer adult.DukeUsul wrote:I've never been punched. Never been in a fight. Never punched anyone.

You seemed to have made it through life pretty well, so I don't think you missed out on anything.
