Except now I'm thinking of Danny Thomas. Mmmm....
Surely you mean Danny Kaye?
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Trudy, if their billing, which seemed to be run out of the location itself, is frelled, doesn't look that good for stuff stored on the ground floor, does it?
I know. It really doesn't. But it could be personnel frelled or computer-fried frelled... sorry if I'm being a pollyanna.
I hope it turns out alright.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I will do no such thing. Goof off and play, young lady!
I'm afraid there has been too much of the goofing off lately. NSM of the playing though.
You might as well ask Fraggles to motivate you, dude, as Buffistas.
Fraggles were a Henson creation right? I think I was too old for the Fraggles.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh! Foot stomps are indeed in the bearhug defense. However they're not really something you can spend time teaching, since everyone already knows how to do them. Reviewing elbows, round kicks with the balls of the toes -- I must check my notes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Fraggles Rock!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Worries for another daaaaaaaaaaay!

bearhug defense.
Slamming your head backward. Going limp with your feet off the ground.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I should call. I've been nervous to.
You may not post again until you've called!

Nonononono! Don't take your feet off the ground. Sag, yes, limp, yes, but sink downwards, and keep as planted as possible. Chances are good they want to pick you up, and that's escalating to a worst case scenario.
Our textbook defense is:
- drop your centre of gravity as low as possible
- create as much space between you and the attacker as possible (you're much harder to lift this way)
- wriggle like a motherfucker/wet cat/cranky toddler
- stomp on feet, kick to groin, elbow to head
If your feet come up off the ground you have a different set of worries (lift and dump), but those options should get you free if your attacker isn't on PCP/on angel dust/undead/hasn't trapped your arms.
Should. Feel free to do any other vicious thing that comes to mind.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
One of us could call for you.
