    A bit of scrap always clears the air. But one's own intelligence should define the boundaries. This is acceptable for me:

    -Mild playful strangulation. But if they seem to be enjoying it, then back off.
    -Nipple tweaking. Short. Sharp. To the point.

    For men, wedgies are permissible. Easier done with the lower order blue collar types, as they will be wearing company issue polo shirts.

    Kung Fu is generally too timid for me, although there are a couple of hard core schools around. I do Krav Maga and full contact medieval tournaments, along with battle re-enactment.

    At the moment (other than writing this) I mild frustration with the work I am doing as I cannot quite seem to get my head around it as the technical book does not match the other technical book and neither of them match the existing code base. Along with slight concern that due to lots happening in my real life and an injury and now a slight infection I have not training enough for the melee I am fighting in on the 9th at Raglan castle. I intend training with various weapons at lunch time but need to be careful in case it prevents my thumb from healing in time for the actual event.

    It involves large daggers, and I don't mean a night out with Brillopad in Brighton.

    A lot of the violence I feel in my soul, can be directly attributed to my C++ days.

    I made a conscious effort to get into web stuff, because it seemed more normal and viable. More women. Less snotty little gits.
