In my own opinion, if you get into a fight: 1. You were either in the wrong place where you shouldn't have been. 2. Couldn't handle a bad situation in a better way (see #1). 3. Are the type who, even if you don't know it, secretly wants to get into a fight.

My $.02

Granted, there's always exceptions, but come on -- I'm 30 and have been hit twice in my life. Once, because I was in eighth grade and stupid (#1), the second time because I was fucking wasted and didn't realize the situation I was in (#2). In either of my cases, I deserved those two punches in my 30 years on earth. If you think I'm wrong in my assessment of that, you fall into the #3 group. If you fall into the exception, well, then just disregard my post.

Anyway, carry on.
