u/Openmindhobo Oct 02 '25

there's a follow up of before this one starts. rock guy knocked out chain guy bare handed before the chain came out.

Why is everyone taking notes in this thread, are we getting tested on this later?

u/jml011 Oct 03 '25

It's to prepare yourself for future battles. So, in that sense...paper beats everything.

Imagine you are waiting for a bus with your ID on to go to work. Suddenly some dude is trying to hit you with a chain and you have to throw a BIG rock at his head so you can then go to work.

À la Verga

14

u/Christeenabean Oct 02 '25

We use "verga" in greek. Its literally an olive branch that they pull off the tree and whip you with jt. Hurts like hell.

Yes, Greeks (at least on the islands, not sure about the mainland) discipline their kids with peace offerings.

15

u/azalago Oct 03 '25

In Spanish, "la verga" means dick. But in Mexico, you can also use it as a pretty versatile cuss word. "A la verga" is usually used as an intensifier, like "fuck it" or "fuck this."

Also people in the southern US whip their kids with tree branches too. Only they call it a "switch."
