    Totally.

    My mom would always ask, “Why didn’t you walk away?” And I would respond “I get suspended either way, at least this way everyone knows not to fuck with me.”

    I am so glad I haven’t had to hit someone in a long time.

      That, and have you ever tried to “walk away” when there are like five people chasing you with the intent of beating you up? Good luck with that.

          Oswald was only doing it to get a rise out of him. Kennedy should have been the bigger man. Really, he’s just as culpable for giving Oswald the reaction he wanted.

        Or my favorite, “just walk away” when dickhead would sneak up behind me and put me in a headlock…

      Or my favorite “Well did you tell them to stop treating you that way?”

      Woah, Master Oogway, that’s some deep enlightenment right there. :O
