unrelated but similar: now maybe i was a bad kid for this, but once when i was younger (like 11?) i went hiking around a lake with my godparents and my cousin. my cousin kept chasing me and hitting me in the arms so at one point i started running for her. a little ways back i hear my uncle say “stop that hes going to hurt you!”… he wasnt totally wrong. for whatever reason, the logic in my brain went “why am i running? why dont i just block???” so i fully stopped running, took a wide low stance and my cousin ABSOLUTELY trammed directly into my shoulder. she ran back to her parents and my uncle just goes “well i told you that would happen. stop chasing and bothering him then”
I’ll hope, she’ll try it again :-)
No, you shouldn’t.
Did I already suggest you should have a “been there” button?
Someone did, but man, she really does!
I can hear my Dad now. I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
