You remind me of a friend of mine. His daughter (martial arts student) was picked on in school until a much larger boy started a fight with her. She avoided the fight until it was inevitable, then popped in square in the nose; she broke his nose and ended the fight in one swing. When my friend was called to pick her up and heard what happened, he turned to her figuring out the situation fairly quickly since she had previously informed him of bully problems and asked, "How did you punch him, thumb in, or thumb out?" Right in front of the principal. To say the principal went from confused to shocked when my friend smiled at his daughter and offered her ice cream would be an understatement.
No? Overwhelming retaliation pretty much guarantees the guy grudgingly avoids you permanently.
Personally, had I not been such a puss in school (grew up with a single mom and learned no self-defense until high school) I probably would have done the same. I've seen what happens when a bully wants revenge for getting matched in a fight, but putting the fear of pain and injury into them psychologically changes something in their mind and at that point normal people avoid the source at all costs.
I congratulate him. Something tells me he unknowingly prevented a few beatings just by being around.
Gargamel is chickenshit. I'll one up this even: don't limit it to things that won't permanently injure or maim. Break bones, twist joints, bite, gouge eyes, and use choke-holds before stomping their face. After an overwhelming win, then get the bully to the nurse. Why? Because barely winning is not an option. Bullies need to realize that despite being bigger than you, you will fuck them up and they need to be afraid. They need to know that bullying will have serious consequences. It's only fair: their emotional attacks on the weak cause many permanent emotional scars. Bullies don't like the idea of receiving pain in return, but they absolutely fear being unable to compete in sports or hobbies (bad body, bad eyesight). Being out for a season and dealing with a cast for months because little Timmy shattered your knee means you probably won't be picking on anyone for a long time.
Why don't we just invade crazies like Iran and North Korea? Because they're crazy and have no problem causing massive damage just to make sure there is pain involved in taking them down despite the fact that we could trounce either nation in a war (current debt not withstanding, though the nuclear option would be monetarily cheap). Number one fear of adult criminals? Victims that don't play the victim. Why? The thought of getting shot over a car or TV is frightening from BOTH sides.
As much as guys complain about the drama, they really should look at Cougars. Sure, they have drama, but orders of magnitude less than the young models. They're single, have their own life, and don't need you mucking it up; do your thing and then she doesn't care until next week.
The cold war arms race averaged around 25.000 tons of TNT, though there were some weapons made that did 50k and some with a theoretical limit at 100k tons.
Wrong prefix. Some were made to 50Mt with a theoretical of 100Mt (Tsar Bomba).
And I wouldn't want to be in the same ocean as a nuke burst. Hydraulic forces can hurt, especially at any distance where the explosion would be visible through the water.
As we're finding out, lack of sunlight does not mean lack of life/growth. Animals living on sinking waste, and lifeforms which use chemical-based metabolism (thermal vents), both would remain a problem.
Because the internet is not restricted to what you can do on a handful of ports with little more than a handful of protocols. That so many technical professionals limit themselves to the "web" tends to restrict creativity.
And doing so when the target shoots back, you're amped on adrenaline, and from a less-than-stable shooting position is several orders of magnitude more difficult. Well trained shooters increase their "hit box" 200-300% in strictly adrenaline situations. Untrained individuals tend to stop looking at the sites and do much worse by far. So, while a professional soldier is going to keep some of their shots on a torso during a situation, without a shadow of a doubt I am sure you'd hit absolutely bunk, except by pure luck.
Actually, county clerks have told people exactly that. A large portion go unanswered anyway due to out of date addresses or people no longer in the court's jurisdiction.
Most ISPs already ban the running of servers according to their service agreement, unless you want to upgrade to a business line, even though they have no good way to enforce it.
And that attitude right there is what's wrong with many officers this day in age. They think they're a parent with supreme authority instead of a civil servant which leads to them wanting any legal ability possible to play nanny.
You assume speeding = reckless, which is not the case at all. Speeding above your own capabilities and those of the road and car is reckless, but speeding itself is not.

This already has the western theme, mod to add spaceships and viola!

Exactly, the bar is already so high it can't get much higher.

Actually, I thought it was the memory mismanagement and bloat.

So you're saying the oil leak in the gulf is a cover up for a nuclear explosion? My god, someone tell the media!
Somehow, I think Games Workshop's legal department is full of lawyers and were the ones to make the decision to protect the IP.

And the man was complaining about them being broken on delivery:
my mail man used to break an awful lot of DVDs trying to shove them in my mailbox
Which means dropping the disc into the blue box on return will do absolutely nothing.
Some people would rather their Senators sit around and wank rather than pass ever more encumbering, convoluted, and generally pork-filled laws.

NASA's performance was once the measure of the USA's intellectual success...
Sadly, it still is.

That's not a boobquake, that's a flapquake. Quite different. Boobquakes are enjoyable.
Literal translation of "ass?"
What if identical twins hook up?
As long as they're cute and female, it's no problem as long as I'm in bed with them.

As hinted to by omnichad, tell me how that works when a natural disaster levels your provider's datacenter, or drops your POTS lines.
Several already exist. Behind the curve again, unfortunately. Could still open one in your area though.
