I just got punched by a Jay-walker in a suit

to be fair, 99.9% when asked first, declined.

if you are calm and measured, people seem to realize even if they beat you, it's going to hurt first.

taking off the coat, rolling the sleeves up, adopting a muay thai stance etc. all helps

agree. come across like you are distracted with thoughts of really fucking them up.. for fun.. really stare into their eyes and deliver measured scentences like you are ordering a grilled cheese and onion sandwich with a splash of brown sauce.. on the side so you can dip it as apposed to all over, cause thats cuntish.

Then they realise they have lost control, you can see it in their face. you keep staring they start to appoliges. its when they wake that morning and you are still there staring into them they really get the message.. fuckers.

If you want further tips on this children watch Paddy Cs performance in Dead Mans Shoes.. fucking great!

Don't know this Thai Stance you are on about? it's not that one where you tuck your veg between your legs, start rubbing your nipples and flutter your eyelids is it?
