  • This reminds me of my grandpa, who gave me my first pocket knife when I must have been 6 or 7. I was really into making bows and arrows out of twigs and branches I’d found in the yard, and he gave it to me simply as a tool for a hobby I’d formed. Everyone freaked out at first, but he taught me how to use a knife safely and I don’t think I ever cut myself (as a child anyways. I’m a reckless adult).

    If we stop teaching kids to be afraid of stuff because of what might happen, and instead teach them about how things work and the consequences of misusing them, I think we’d have less people afraid to use the stove in their 20s.












  • Reg, why’d you just stab yourself in the shoulder?

    Ah cmon, ain’t ya ever seen a movie?

    Well of course I’ve seen a movie, but what the hell are ya doing?

    Every time the guy stabs himself in a movie, it’s right before he kicks the piss outta the guy he’s fightin’!

    Well that don’t… when that happens, the guys gotta plan Reg, what the hell’s your plan?

    I dunno, but I’m gonna find out!
