/v/Showerthoughts is a subverse for you to share all those thoughts, ideas, or philosophical questions that race through your head while in the shower.
"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to any thought you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. If you disagree, explain why in the comments. Downvoats are reserved for submissions you don't like or comments that do not add to the discussion, not opinions with which you disagree.
RULES
-
Please refrain from shower "observations;" we've heard them all before
-
Ideas for Voat features should be posted in /v/ideasforvoat, even if you think of them while in the shower
The spirit of this subverse's rules is to foster a community where dissent, free thought, and open discussion are tolerated, limited only to trolling, excessive abuse, site-breaking rules, or content that is better suited for another subverse. All moderation activity should operate within this spirit.

It’s always about not making yourself an easy target, they won’t steal your money anymore if you stab them

If only that worked with the IRS...

Have you ever tried?

It does. Church of scientology pulled it off and they no longer pay taxes. Despite not being qualified to be a tax exempt church.

Can confirm. This fat fuck named Austin picked on me in the sixth grade. I put a tiny shitty pen knife (2" blade) into his thigh. Never fucked with me again. Didn't snitch either.
Edit: Thanks for the upvoats, fellas.
So I decided to take a trip down memory lane. This is very similar to what I had: http://magaimg.net/img/75ad.jpg
I know, I know, a slow, crappy piece of shit, right? Still, when you're 11-12 years old and all the adults basically tell you weapons are a no-no, being able to get one of these for a couple dollars is an incredible rush (especially if you're kind of dorky like I was).
After losing that knife (I kinda just plunged it in and walked away), I ended up buying another one just like it. I never once went to school without some sort of stabbing implement after that. Plenty of kids at school would get caught with bb guns and butterfly knives or whatever, they'd get suspended/expelled too. I never got caught with my shit because I knew better than to show it off or pull it willy nilly (never had to for the remainder of my schooling years). Probably helped that the school security guards and admins saw me more as one of "those" (good-but-weak) kids they had to look out for.
Come to think of it, that was my foray into the importance of self-reliance and introduction to self-defense and use of force. Since then, my gear has only gotten better. Thanks Austin, wherever you are -- I'd be a helpless cuck had you not volunteered your fat ass thigh and subsequent squealing all those years ago.

My bully ended up getting leukemia. He died within a year and i earned my self a talk with the school psychologist after laughing out loud in the gym, when they gathered us all to give us the "sad" news.

Early, and often.

Challenge them to a fight but make sure your back is against a wall. Preferably brick or stone.
Goad the ever living fuck out of them until they wind up to swing at you, then duck.
They won't do it again.
In an adult world nothing fucks up bullies and woman bashers more than getting straight in their face and staring them down. You've just turned the tables on them and every bit of power they have (scaring the fuck out of people to get their way) is now being used against them. One of two things will happen. They're either a complete fucking banana in which case run like fuck or they're a complete fucking pussy and will start thinking of YOU in exactly the same way they want you to think of them.
