    Our school was at a public event one time. Another school was there too. Saw the other schools kid pick up a cockroach off the ground, and put it on their friends lap.

    Every year, the line “teenagers scare the living shit out of me” gets more and more relatable to me

    That bullshit trope always bothers me. The one pushing back only has to direct the knife to one side or the other not push straight back. The worst case I’ve seen of this is in season 2 of The Punisher. The girl fight in the therapist’s apartment has one of them up against the wall with a knife being pushed at her face as she gets cut below her eye. It was especially bad because not only could she have directed the knife to the side, but she could have also just bent her neck to move her head out of the way.

      They have these classes in college about penetration testing. I didn’t expect to take them for a cybersecurity degree.

      Pretty sure the activity is “See if we could kill each other with a knife [if we had a knife]”, not “Maybe actually kill each other with a knife”.

    If you’re the attacker here, instead of trying to force through the button mash QTE-esque thing, what you want to do is make a forceful cut parallel to the guy’s body and try to cut their hands and wrists, then go for another plunge. Ideally in a different place, but even if it’s the same place, now they’re trying to defend against you with injured hand(s).
