I saw such a stupid example of this in the new film Dogman. A dog jumps up onto a security guard sitting in a chair, cause him to fall over. He did not hit his head on anything, he just toppled over in the chair. In the next shot he’s now unconscious on the floor so the criminals can do whatever they need to do.
I’m thinking the gloves make a difference as well, if only to keep the boxer’s hands from being broken.
They also minimize bloody cuts on the face, making the spectacle somewhat less barbaric looking.
in a bathtub full of bubbles.
A thin layer of bubbles on the sides, a thick layer in more strategic spots.
Yes, bubble bath is a thing. For kids. Along with a cute rubber duckie.
When was the last time you had a bubble bath in real life?
This year - but no rubber duckie.
Verrrrrry slowly.
And when the door bursts open and the good guy/bad guy/cop or total stranger (sometimes the hotel bellboy, who is always 19 and geeky) rushes in, instead of screaming, she will smile coyly (confident in her bubbles), make a suggestive remark in a baby-doll voice, and ask for the poor schlub to hand her the towel.
What’s so relaxing about s bath when you have to perch 50 candles around the tub and then light them all? Or is that only for women who can afford to hire Buleah to do it when she’s not busy peeling a grape?
This cartoon appeared in my local paper a few days ago. Funny, but not a good idea.
Back in the day people, sometimes even park rangers, would ‘soap’ a geyser by tossing in a bar. It would clog the vent making the geyser erupt within a few minutes. It’s not allowed any more.
I remember reading about explorers who, upon discovering geysers, would throw things like rocks, sticks, broken wagon wheels, etc. down into them, just to watch them fly out when the geyser erupted. It was the last thing some of them did.
We really haven’t changed all that much, have we?
Whenever I have a bath vs a shower, so at least once a week.
What’s the point of a bath without bubbles?
Heh, I’ve watched some Bare Knuckle Fighting on Fubo(?). It is barbaric! Every fight involves facial swelling and cuts. Bloody messes. And there is a women’s division.
Without that there’s no John Conner.
Any port in a storm.
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
Lately it’s struck me how often I TV and movies I’ve seen one man call another man son. The one being called son is younger but very often an adult. I’ve never called anyone son and I’ve never been called son by anyone, even my father.
I think that might be a regional thing. I’ve been called son several times by folks that weren’t my father.
There’s a “pecking order” thing there, that my dad was really into. Everyone’s got to know their place. He’d call someone younger “son”, and NEVER let anyone walk into a restaurant before him.
He’d say he was “acting chivalrous”, holding the door for everyone… but it was an Alpha Male thing. Once, just to test him, I got to the door first and held it for the whole family. Even though I was an adult, and a dad by then, he had to wrest the door away from me and basically push me into the restaurant in front of him.
Then he’d put his hand in the middle of my mom’s back and “guide her” where she was “supposed to go”.
(I really wanted to say “Ummm, I think Mom knows how to walk down the aisle of a diner, all by her little lonesome…”)
When I see guys do that, it’s almost a trigger. And it’s always guys, women never get to do that. Nor would they want to… but there are guys who have to do that.
and before they have sex, while they run for their lives they are holding hands the whole time .
