I’d suggest the back of a closet door or similar!

This is essentially my idea as well. Hang em by the clasps. Even without permanently affixing something, a few quick-assembled rods with hooks, held in place with a suitable amount of command strips or similar no-damage hanger.

I’d rig up some kind of hanging solution. Hang them from the clasps in a row on like, the back of a closet door or something.

Take your fuckin upvote and go hahah

Reminds me of this video, the the impotence of proofreading

He left a while back. Anything one of us can help you with?

Unironically why I avoid complementing about half the things I want to. I just think you chose a good color for your hair, ma’am, I swear!

Cuffed would be more like detained. Not free to leave, because they’re actively investigating, but no charges are being presented. Literally just placed in cuffs while the police do their snooping.

I posted here about getting into armored MMA. I can echo this sentiment. Feeling yourself getting better, and flooring the complete newbies from time to time is a wonderful experience. Or getting one good, clean takedown on your instructor, even if it was mostly a fluke. Having a good instructor makes all the difference, too. Someone that can explain the how, and the why.

It really does sound scary, and yeah - people get hurt. But that’s not the goal of the sport, at least not like, seriously. People look out, and at least in my sport, the first few classes were all how to be safe.

It also surprised me just now hard even striking can be, like you said. It sounds super easy, just got em with the sword. Or your hand. But there’s so much to just throwing a good hit, let alone while someone else is trying the same thing.

So yeah, 10/10, if anyone’s at all interested in a combat sport, take the dive.

Yeah that was my reaction hahah. It’s getting more and more popular, the gyms are popping up in most areas. Maybe one day we’ll fight :D

Here ya go! This was from an exhibition show back in July.

It’s a good time. Finally giving me reason to get off my ass hahah

Armored MMA! Cage fights in authentic armor, with historically accurate weapons. I’ve yet to get in armor, just soft kit sparring and pell work with the real weapons.

Sword fighting. I joined an armored combat gym and just went consistently. They provide the equipment, at least til you get to the point you want your own armor and weapon. Good fun, good exercise.

The rabbit lies too.

Depending on what you’re needing done, a lot of times IT has to cover their asses. If it didn’t happen on that phone call, it didn’t happen. I always appreciate the gumption, you probably saved us like, 30 call just from figuring out other issues yourself. If it’s anything that will cost the company money, though, like replacing hardware - if I don’t take due diligence in making sure those earlier steps are done, it’s my ass on the line.

You know you’re smart enough to do the troubleshooting, but that technician has probably 1000+ users that rotate weekly, they can’t keep a log book of which ones are good and which ones will land them in the shit. I totally get the frustration, but the ones who lie about doing simple troubleshooting ruin it for everyone.

It’s the same as going to a mechanic and saying “my car doesn’t work!” No shit? That’s usually why people come here. Wanna be more specific?

I support doing the troubleshooting yourself. Just be aware, if you call with one of those 9 out of 10 cases, we’re still going to have to do ALL of those steps again, so I can document that we tried them before sending any hardware. I’ve been burned one too many times by someone telling me they’ve already tried something.

To be fair, I do IT for convenience stores. Sometimes we have to reboot pumps or similar, and all we can do is have them throw a breaker for 30 seconds lmao
