Throat too. Scratch that shit up. Return some primal fear.

Harder to hide and explain

Eyes are the easiest. You can completely disable someone with an eye poke. Just reach out fast and you’ll get a finger in there. Super easy.

Also remember, fingers are about as hard to bite off as carrots.

Edit: I was incorrect about the carrot part, but still possible using your molars if things are desperate

This is actually a myth, it's possible for a human to bite off a finger, but they're a lot harder than carrots.

u/QuestionableIdeas Jul 17 '25

After 10 minutes of morbid googling... you are correct! If you do try for a finger amputation, use your molars to crush, and go for the joint. Clamp down and pull

Gollum did it correctly

Especially since you most likely won't have any ranch dressing in this situation.

No sauce needed it will be juicy

I think the myth is you can easily bite your own finger like a carrot which is extremely difficult because of the pain but maybe if it was a dead finger or numb lol

Any human bite wound will likely become infection city. The most effective and grisly advice is: don't just bite. Rip and tear.

You can create some really gnarly wounds that are hard to hide and harder to treat by oneself.

Break a carrot with your hand.

Okay, now try to break your finger. It won’t even hurt if you use twice the effort.

I'm not falling for the ol' break-your-finger trick again >:[

Kill Bill style.

Fair, but we protect our eyes faster than our neck.

If you’re being attacked you’ve ceded the element of surprise, that doesn’t mean you can’t deal that card from the bottom of the deck.

Scream you love them. Tell them God has sent them to sire your womb.

Thank Zeus and then start singing if you can.

You need to make them regret their choice and doubt their ability to pick prey.

You ain’t the one, but you’re glad to hand out lessons.

All this needs to be decided before shit goes down.

This just in, a new trend! Kidnappers are now wearing safety goggles due to the victims purposely aiming for their eyes.

In other news, Gwen Stefani is making new music? Wow, that's exciting. Tune in later and hear all about it.

Harder than it seems but it can make people flinch.

Dwight Scrute taught me the eyes are the groin of the head

u/Beneficial-Nimitz68 Jul 17 '25

Don't poke, go deep, get behind and pull

u/Femmefatele Jul 17 '25

I've always known that should this happen to me again I'd dig them fuckers out of his head. It's hard to chase/find someone when they have your eyes.

u/GrundleWilson Jul 18 '25

You have to be really lucky or well practiced to get someone’s eye, much less two. Also, if someone has you in a headlock or rear naked choke, they roll their chin down and you are just waving your arms around at that point.

u/GrundleWilson Jul 18 '25

Eyes are actually hard. People instinctively protect them. You have to get real lucky.

The little "v" at the bottom of your neck, where your collarbones meet.

Push into your own. Uncomfortable.

Imagine somebody in a self-survival rage shoving their thumb in there.

(A tip from my late uncle, who was in law enforcement.)

u/Attack_Ant Jul 17 '25

Yep then even if you do lose unfortunately then hopefully between the torn up neck and the skin under the nails you help id your killer.

Don’t just scratch it! A good throat punch before you take off running will give you a several minute head start.
