Every situation is completely different its about control and keeping a level head and not going off like a stick of dynamite. Women being the weaker sex I do not believe in any way shape or form. I work at an auto shop and tow company, I have seen our little office lady put rather large angry gentlemen on the floor in a heartbeat.

My ex had actually written down in her little divorce scheme that I threatened to kill her. Not exactly true. She has pulled so many knives out of the drawer I can't count; and swung a planter at my head so hard I still have the cracked forearm bone with a lump to show for it. What was the worst thing I did? Threw a pack of bologna that whizzed over her head (on purpose). If I were a Muslim, I could have beat her; and, went on over to my other three wives for entertainment

My brother (RIP) actually knocked some woman out in a bar. She looked like a man from behind he said. She was a cop!

And, she did looka lika man

And, he was 5'4" 140lbs, and, no one here could whip him. Except me

We actually fought to draws, so, watch it whoever is the first to irritate me this trip

Don't make me ball of chalk cross the Atlantic up your apples, and beat you with your dog and bone!

Just being silly chna plates; don't get all mum and dad on me

It's getting more dangerous to pick up hitchhikers here, or, even stop to offer help if someone seems stranded; but, everyone has cell phones now, and, I do stop for hitchhikers still. But, as for any set of 'rules' I live by one. I try to refrain from doing what I don't like to other people. 'Do unto others' thing. But, I don't care which fork is for what

I'm just a regular guy; but, I'm not fat. I found this amusing however.

That's a shame about the hitchhikers thing, because it's a great way to meet new people but I understand how unsafe it is.
