I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

One of my favorite parts of karate is practicing take downs on people of different sizes. I'm just at the beginning of this part of the training and it is so empowering. With each technique we learn the classical form and then how to apply it on the street. Knees, crotch, eyes, carotid artery...all lovely targets.

I have never worked with real weapons. Never held a gun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Kicking guys in the nuts can rapidly become a pleasure. Kicking girls in the groin is pretty fun too.

The eyeball thing will need mortal danger of me or someone around me to be tested. I don't have any children to function as a trigger, but I'd go balls to the wall (no pun intended) if I felt better equipped to than whoever I was with. Family determines the extent to which I'd go for revenge.

We learn defenses against guns in krav. There came a point where it just seemed stupid to be able to take one away and then not really know what to do with it other than squeeze and pray (or pistol-whip), so I took some classes. I'm a good shot with a handgun, although not a fast aimer. My shotgun skills need more sharpening up, although I surprised everyone by not bruising myself at all. Apparently girls are supposed to hurt themselves.

Because books.

That was another thing I loved, in my rewatch of Sympathy For the Devil. When Zachariah offers to heal Bobby if Dean says yes to Michael, he doesn't even waver -- it's a blunt no. And yet, for a lot of people that would be such a trigger. And Dean held firm.

Jesus, Thursday night cannot come fast enough.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I had a friend who, in his youth, was a pretty rough street fighter, and ended up doing some teaching of knife fighting and knife defense. He recommended that, if at all possible, you should grab your jacket or something to wrap around your non-dominant arm and go ahead and sacrifice that forearm to the knife. The knife can get hung up in the clothing or your arm and give you a few seconds to get in a blow elsewhere. When in doubt, go for the side of the knee.

I think only vampire slayers and others of the supernaturally inclined can actually successfully grab the blade.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Sorry. Was outside planning a reorientation of the entry. And arguing aboutdiscussing it, inevitably.

IDEK who these guys are

No sudden moves, buddy.

That's it? That's what you got?

I love the maid of honor's expression, looking at Jared.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

it makes me hot all over

so, Amy ... what about Dean doesn't make you hot all over? (I'm sure it's a very short list)

Now wait just a minute, Todd! There's ...

Okay, I got nothing.

Actually, my father taught me to shoot when I was 12 or so. But I really hate things that go boom. I did fencing and archery in college (too many Errol Flynn movies when I was a child?) and discovered I prefer the quieter weapons.
