Am home now. The most exciting part of my journey home was that a man barked at me. We were walking towards each other on the sidewalk - he even changed his path to be closer to me - then he said, "Arf! Arf! Arf" in a somewhat high-pitched and very loud voice. Kinda' startled me. As I was walking away I heard him barking at someone else, which made me feel better that he handn't just singled me out.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

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

So, does the Grinch lie to her to prevent her from sounding the alarm, or to avoid hurting her feelings? (I don't remember.)

To avoid getting caught--he sent her to bed "with her cup, then he went to the flue, and stuffed the tree up!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't like those suggestions, tommy, not because I think they're wrong (cursorily I don't disagree with much in the "take a punch" one, but have a few issues with the street fight article) but because reading written suggestions is pretty much useless. Especially any the length of the street fight one.
You need practice to take a punch or win a fight--might as well sign up for one class or another, or just start picking fights. The learning curve is probably more painful in the latter scenario.
