Your Country, presumably South Africa, and yourself... I would say a flat battery is a small issue in comparison. But you could always run your car for about 5 minutes a week if you're worried. Or a battery charger every 6 weeks or so.
Meh, that was only the last one... I think every 15 or so years some clown has a crack... I don't think its paid off for any of them yet... But next time I'll be pretty old so maybe it will... But probably not, the difference between mean and tough is a funny line.
Yeah maybe Gal, I guess I'm on the other side, had the broken ribs and black eye, but flogged the piss out of him lol... Nothing to glorify, its ugly. The whole idea is ugly. Rather just go out and have a good night instead.
But getting back to reality, violence is ugly. blood, broken bones, police dramas... Sure you can win the fight, but probably will have a broken rib or black eye, its not the same as Hollywood at all. Lets not gloryfy the idea, its an ugly busines, people mean you harm and you mean them harm. Its chaotic, there's yelling and screaming. Clothing gets torn. there's blood everywhere in the first few seconds, believe me its ugly. Everyone's night is ruined immediately, security gets involved, the police are called...
But yeah, 3 Asian guys all line up perfectly to wait for that specific punch that will break their jaw, without fighting back at all, because that is what is written in the script?
I don't think you have much brawling experience, is all.
Your son is allowed to defend himself proportionally, fists can defend against fists, I think that other idea might be from one of the diehard films or something, has no basis in law. Not here anyway, it might be a Bruce Lee movie you're thinking of.
Its complicated here, we have a law of proportionaility. So if someone attacks you with a golf club, you can defend yourself with a golf club... If someone hits you with a fist, you could be in trouble retaliating with a golf club. You probably wouldn't be, unless it was a judges son or someone with heaps of money or social status with the golf club, and you were black or poor...
Security guards usually carry those big mag lights with 10 D-cell batteries, because they're a torch not a club lol... Carrying a weapon if you're not trained how to use it, will probably be used against you.
Good pair of shoes, no shame losing the fight by 200 metres.
Yam ! Bam ! Mon chat Splash gît sur mon lit A bouffé sa langue En buvant tout mon whisky Quant à moi, peu dormi, vidé, brimé J'ai dû dormir dans la gouttière Où j'ai eu un flash En quatre couleurs
Allez hop ! Un matin Une louloute est venue chez moi Poupée de cellophane, cheveux chinois Un sparadrap, une gueule de bois A bu ma bière, dans un grand verre En caoutchouc Comme un Indien dans son iglou
Ça plane pour moi
Allez hop ! La nana Quel panard, Quelle vibration De s'envoyer sur le paillasson ! Limée, ruinée, vidée, comblée You are the king of the divan! Qu'elle me dit en passant I am the king of the divan
Ça plane pour moi
Allez hop ! T'occupe, t'inquiète Touche pas ma planète It's not today Que le ciel me tombera sur la tête Et que l'alcool me manquera Ça plane pour moi
Allez hop ! Ma nana s'est tirée, s'est barrée Enfin c'est (marre) à tout casser L'évier, le bar me laissant seul Comme un grand connard Le pied dans le plat
The dog used to follow us down the dirt road, and my grandma used to give it heaps when we got on the Pacific highway. We'd be all looking out the back and running a commentary how well he could keep up. It was a 3 on the tree, went heaps hard.
I remember my grandad lighting up his pipe without a care in the world, and us all in the back of the Torana opening these gay flip windows that only opened about 2 inches. I miss the man with all my heart, and that Torana (which incidently was used in a bank robbery) would be worth about 50 grand these days. A very small car with a big engine.
I was reading just before, about Benny and Bjorn complaining about oiled up young men in the sauna. I'm not sure if its true or not, but I wrote it anyway.
