What I Learned From Kevin #88

Fighting strategy: “Go for the medics, then go for the other medic and the heavy and fly off invisible!”

-Team Fortress 2 but it’s 2019

Bonus lesson:  “Don’t drink, it’s a bad example for the viewers.”

How to Relax During a Fight

How to Relax During a Fight

I received a returned video from a well meaning, but severely misguided, former customer. This is a rarity since over the past 2 plus years and hundreds upon hundreds of videos shipped; I can only count 3 returns. One was unopened, one included a note that the recipient thought the videos would be something else, but he…

The Art of Storming Away

One of the first things you will notice when you move in with your girlfriend is storming away just doesn't have the same flair that it used to.  Before when an argument got too heated for battle, you could storm away, drive home, lock the doors and have a peaceful routine to calm down to. 

Now storming from the living room to the bedroom less than 20 feet away just doesn't have the same effect.  Eventually, you will realize, if you haven't already, that you need to get OUT of the house, apartment, condo, cave, igloo, or whatever you live together in.  Inevitably you are going to get in your car and start driving, or if you don't have a car then, well, watch out because she might catch up and that's the last thing you want.

The linchpin of this whole theatrical event is where you go to next.  You can't just keep on driving, gas prices are over $4 per gallon, you are risking accidents, and if you've already stormed out of your place - you've probably been drinking.

Here are the following tips:

Phoning a friend will NOT work in this scenario.  No matter what time of day or night this is, your friends will NOT pick up for this call.  They can sense it.  They don't understand it, but for some reason they will not pick up.  They will come up with a reason why later.

Work is also NOT a safe bet.  Do not drive to work, even if you have a nice office.  She will find you.  In fact, don't drive to any destination where you think she might find you.  That is the last thing you want.  You need time to cool off or else you are going to end up on a bad episode of Maury.  Plus, it's embarrassing... trust me.

The best thing to do is PLAN AHEAD.  This will take a few fights, but find a spot that has the three W's.  Without people; Water; and Walkable.  These should be intuitive.  You don't want other people around, including park rangers and police officers or strangers for that matter asking you any questions - you aren't in the right place.  Water?  It's relaxing.  Duh.  There is no secret to human's fixation with water.  And walkable?  Statistically there is an 85 percent chance you will need to walk it off to calm down.  I made that up.  But you better be ready to walk, pace, and have room to move around if you ever want to calm down so when you return to your dwelling you have a coherant argument ready because trust me, there will be blood.

So that's it.  As guys we don't think ahead for these situations.  WE SHOULD.  But don't share your spots, they're yours.  Find the three W's and don't forget the cardinal rule - ALWAYS think of your strategy for when you get back home.

Good fight.  And good night.
