    Yes, but I get to eat bitter.

    Yeah, but how many times have you been blowed up or shot at?

    Sure, get all serious.

    Technically, I've never been blowed up or shot at. I did, however, watch Daredevil.

    I've been shot in the leg, stabbed in the side of my other leg, bitten on the arms by a dog and also on the leg.
    I've also bean whacked about the head and neck far too many times to keep track of.

    But, so what. lol
    I'm sure a few guys on here have eaten some bitter.

    Oh god I hope so, I'd hate to think I've thrown in with a pack of losers and dough boys. I'm kinda hoping some of you have some hurt in your life to help you be a real man about stuff.
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    I had a dog chomp down on my hand once... so I went to beat it down with a chunk of lumber. You know what the girl next to me said?

    "Stop, don't hit it! You'll make it mean!"

    No. She managed to completely flabbergast me. The bite was nasty, though. Got infected, hand was swollen.

    Oh, her? Nah... she was kind of chunky and sort of got on my nerves. Maybe if I was drunk.

    In a very non compassionate moment, I killed one of the dogs that attacked me by collapsing it's airway with a well placed and hard kick. In my opinion, it was dead when it decided to attack me.
    Kung Fu is good for you.
