You must have lived your entire life in profoundly violent settings...
I am several decades older than you and I have hardly ever experienced the violence that seems to have pervaded a large part of your posts here... It must be a rough life for you...
Kinda true. My 2 brothers and I fought a lot growing up. Way more than most kids did. I had been training for it my whole life, lol. My brothers are tougher than eff too. So, I compared guys who would start sh1t with me and know it was gonna be easy.
No one has messed with me since my early 20s. I haven't been in a fight since college. I don't start sh1t, and you'd have to be a effing idiot to start it with me. I don't start sh1t, but I have no problem finishing it.
I wasn't even a member of my fraternity and was just a pledge and 3 guys at sigma chi, the house across the street jumped me as I was walking back to my house across the street after I walked out to make sure one of my future brothers was okay, who was talking to them, after some altercation that I wasn't even involved in.
My whole house saw me beat the sh1t out of them and send one away in an ambulance. I had hardly a scratch on me, lol. After that, it was by default that I'd have to deal with any guests who caused problems at our house. I didn't ask for this. It wasn't a big deal and over the course of years, I only had a few problems I had to deal with. A bunch of kids and tons of alcohol is gonna create problems sometimes.
