    imagine a masculinity so fragile that not only do you think the most basic, lamest fictional character is important, and you’re upset about it, but you’re willing to say that in public?

    Seriously, these people have never been in a fist fight and it shows.

        Punching a subordinate who you know will almost certainly not fight back doesn’t count as a fight, in fact it fits exactly the bill for these types. Find people in relatively weak positions in a dominance hierarchy and exploit the power differential to hurt them.

        Come back to me when he’s punched Piers Morgan, I would pay to watch that.

            …holy shit, I did not even think to check if that had actually happened, because that would be an insane thing to have happened, and to your credit you did in fact get back to me.

            Okay, well, you’re right, you do kinda have to hand it to him a little bit, I misjudged the man.
