Someone tries to pick a fight with you, but doesn't know you are an expert in a martial art.

What do you do? Kick butt? Give a warning?

    Martial or not, I'd walk away and not look back.  I ain't messing up my body for some idiot.  Who cares.

    That's even better. Make them pee their pants and bawl like a baby.

    Element!  You are already giving him a body-part complex.  What if he wasn't afraid of his supposed manhood??

    A Ph.D huh?  I wondered why you scream so much.  All that training must have been stressful.

    Ha! I don't think so.
    I believe the if absolutely forced to fight,
    the goal is to use just enough force to cause the person to stop.
    With some a demonstration of skill by tossing them on the ground would be enough.
    Some might not stop till badly bruised, or injured.
    Some might have to be knocked unconscious.
    The skilled martial artist does their best to avoid causing permanent damage
    unless there is no other way to remain alive.
    Part of the skill is automatically knowing those things at speed.

    I can't believe you really believe that.
    Surely it's a version of hangman's black humour.
    Same with your comment below.

    Well if you feel the person deserves a warning you give them a warning. But if the person is a SOB or bully  you egg them on a bit so you can give them a taste of their own medicine. Cheers!

    Always let them throw the first punch...physically or verbally.

    If I were ever in a position to do it to TRUMP?  I promise I would throw the first punch.  And it would land.   Because I have been practicing on a pillow.   And I would not waste my punch for the side of his fat face.  It would be dead center.

    Well if you ever do that I hope you have a Wet Wipe with you because you will get orange powder all over your fist. Cheers!

    That is exactly what Don says.  It must be a "smart" guy rule.

    Never throw the first punch. This post was edited by Merlin at December 10, 2019 9:47 AM MST

    That avoids an assault charge. Self-defense is legal.

    I am cracking up, as I always do when I read your posts!!

    Just this morning I read a pun and thought of you!! It's weird how people pop into your brain at the oddest times.  I know the reason you did was because it was a list of puns.
    I'll message you to carry on this thought.  It will be too much off the subject to carry on here.
    :) :)
