Inb4 religion...Whats is a good reason why you havent armed yourself? With everything going on around us, it might benefit the world as a whole for you to equip yourself with an equalizer.
Go buy a cheap pistol at the very least and learn to put rounds on target. We need all the backup we can get.
My mother grew up in a culture where slap tapping when you laughed at a comment was common.
After I went to college, she was in the store with her sister & a younger fellow got her laughing & she swatted his butt. My Aunt was mortified & called my mom out on it. The guy laughed it off & shot back that he appreciated good looking women taking notice of his scrawny glutes. Both my mom & aunt couldn't stop laughing & apparently held the line up for a couple minutes trying to calm down.
If we can laugh at others mistakes, out lives will miss some fantastic laughs & memories.
edit: My mother did her best to make sure my siblings & I never picked up her habit. She hated it once she moved to Utah. Everyone though she was flirting. Oddly, that line of reasoning didn't help her boys stop LOL
Too funny! Your mom sounds like a great lady. And thank goodness that young man has a sense of humor!
