NuclearConfusion -Not a lot of money in the revenge business

Having grown up in Western Washington, my friends and I used to have slug fights. You sidearm some of the bigger ones just right and the resulting slime splatter on the chest of your foe is just priceless. We'd often come home covered in slime and strangly numb. We always thought we were just throwing too hard, and decided to throw even harder to get back at the others. We never stopped to consider the possibility that we were dulling our nerve endings with chemicals.

good times
