Have you ever had to throw down?

[Last One In]

I have a couple of times, but the fights were rather pointless. in one I thought some kid stole 10 dollars from me, which I found in my backpack the day after the fight. In another one of my friends was drunk and was looking for a fight, so I gave it to him. We didn't care the next day.:thumbs:

 

[nutcrackr]

I must admit I've never heard the term "throw down" before in my life so I guess that answers your question.

 

[Raziaar]

Is a throw down, like... when you toss them off a cliff or building to murder them?

I need to get that clarified before I answer.

 

[Last One In]

To throw down means to fight. Sorry about your unfabulous terminology.

 

[Nat Turner]

Stop making up phrases, man.

 

[Last One In]

Where I come from, "to throw down" is a perfectly accepted term. I think it originates from someone having to take off their gloves for a fight or something. i could be wrong but you guys probably don't know what the hell I'm talking about. BTW to throw down means to fight, as in how many of you have been in a fight?

 

[Steven]

Once a guy stole my hat so I beat him up.

I'm about to get into a fight with you, with all your whacky terminology! <pulls off his gloves and tosses them onto the ground>

FIGHTS ON!

*Dances around Last One In, hopping around carefully on his feet, sure to step lightly as he moves around in controlled circles. Inching his way closer, he feints right his right fist, and quickly sidesteps behind Last One In in order to pop him in the back of the head with a fast jab. Last One In falls to his knees, and bitterly accepts defeat.*


WOO!

That must have been one nice hat, although a person who steals deserves to have his hand chopped off (unless the person is starving and steals a loaf of bread. although if he abstained from stealing and held his constitution, he would probably go to heaven for standing up for what he believes in.)

*Last One In tells a few jokes to calm Raziaar down, while his pack of wild dogs lurks in the background, waiting for Raziaar to throw the first punch so they can maul his ass.* Sorry Raziaar, my dogs are the best in the business.

[Uriel]

I've fought more than Ive liked. Its stupid but sometimes theres no other choice.

On an aside note. I just ate a pomegranate recently. ****ing things are difficult to eat!

*Comes back to life, his torn up body parts merging back together as he rises to his feet. With an undead, zombie like growl he glares at the dogs with his evil eyes. Grabbing two by the tails, he squishes them together into a mangled pile of flesh that oozes blood onto the surrounding ground. The other dogs flee in terror, seeing their companions die so easily. Chuckling with a mighty, evil laugh, Raziaar turns back to Last One in, and quickly dominates his soul with unholy magic.*

LOL. crappily written, but I dont have time.

 

[Last One In]

Fighting is truly the black side of humanity. No one really knows why they do it, they just do it. If I had my little way, any billigerent little shit who tried to start an unjust fight would have to sit down with both a phsycologist and a priest for one week straight. They could talk about whatever the **** they wanted too.

I was, I dunno five or something.

"Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent."

And quoting wise words is the first refuge of smart wannabe's.

No but seriously. You're not dumb just because you have to fight to defend yourself etc.

Nevertheless, I haven't fought in a long time. Tend to throw punches with a guy during gymnastics class but that's just friendly and in good fun.

Some week ago or something during lunch time in my school, this big arabian (wouldn't mention it if it wasn't for the fact that most immigrants are really obsessive about respect and getting it by violence) guy approached me because I apparently had taken his chair, it was pretty obvious he wanted to start a fight. I just stood up, since I'm pretty long we were about equal in length, and looked him in the eyes and calmly, but kinda in an authoritive way, told him that he could take another chair. He backed off and instead started yelling at his friends for giving away his chair. Was kinda funny because you could really see how he changed in body language from going all "Who do you think you are?" to "sorry, i don't want to cause any trouble.. sir"

So yeah, I think you can avoid violence to a great deal if you prove you're the man. People who aren't good at showing it with confidence and body language tend to resort to violence much quicker.

 

[15357]

I avoid fights. But when they can't be avoided, here comes the fire extinguisher.

 

[Firebox]

I'm a terrible fighter. I mean, meaningless violence is fun to watch, but not when I'm involved. Usually I cower in the corner and poke a stick feebly in their general direction untill they leave.

 

[Cormeh]

I'm certainly not a fighter. I trained Karate for 8 years, and that taught me to try and negotiate yourself out of a potentially hostile situation.

But to put it more simply, in the words of the immortal Bender™:

"I'm a consciences objector - you know, a coward."

 

[Unfocused]

Uhh.. "throw down". I was thinking about swallowing your vomit instead of letting it out of your mouth.

Yeah, that's gross. :x

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

It's all about projection of power. If you look like you'd rip someone's throat out as soon as look at them, you tend to get left alone.
Sadly, though, there's going to be times when you have to partake in a bit of unnecessary violence. You're on your own for that part

 

[Sulkdodds]

I'm glad this thread has stopped being The Arena.

 

[short recoil]

I havn't had a fight for ages, no one ever threatens me anymore.

I have friendly fights with mates from time to time, it's fun and great training.

 

[Sulkdodds]

Mates? Who are these 'mates' that could stand up to you in even a friendly fight?

Jesus?

Buddha?

Mr T?

 

[15357]

Perhaps TX?

lol, it's just a laugh, i don't go all out obviously.
Unless i am fighting my brother who is a pretty fair match.

 

[Cormeh]

Perhaps we should arrange a HL2.net "Meet and Scrap". :upstare:

 

[short recoil]

I would actually be up for that ....if you weren't joking.

 

[15357]

yes except make it 15,965 vs 1

That would make it rather fair. I mean, we would all be knocked out in a minute whcih is very long.

 

[JNightshade]

I hate fighting, but occasionally it's unavoidable. A few years ago, I went to a skateboarding camp, with a friend of mine (who happens to be gay). About halfway through the week, this complete bigot finds out and flips out. Calling him all sorts of awful names, threatening him, just in general being an awful person. My friend turned his back on him, and this shithead clocked him in the head as he was walking away. I was right nearby, and obviously I help my friends when they need it... anyway, long story short, I broke his face.

Damn right you did.

 

[DreadLord]

LOL @ "Throw down".

It's almost worse than British slang.. But not quite.

 

[JNightshade]

It makes me think of a combination of squaredancing and professional wrestling... but that's just me.

 

[Ennui]

U jus' mad cuz u got served.

 

[JNightshade]

I ain' mad, I's jus' ponderin'.

 

[Llama]

I was hanging around with a group of female friends (no, seriosuly, im not that ugly ) When this Chav walked past me and rammed my shoulder. I turned round and shouted out "WTF are you doing" He turned round, walking straight up in my face to try and intimadate me (as chavs do) so I rammed my knee upwards into his Crotch with as much force as a could.

Poor sod was in so much pain I was able to walk away laughing

 

[MTG_Maro]

Some guy was talking s*it to me so I smacked his throat befor he could start something.

 

[Dalamari]

I've never been in a fight

That is all

 

[JNightshade]

This one time, I saw this one girl, and she was like "euuuh", and I was like
"WHATEVAH"
