Had a guy slap me on my bare shoulder, cos I have a dragonfly tattoo there. Could not understand why I lost my shit at him. Complete strange
DarthWaiterSE
Knew a guy whose dad was a USMC Drill Instructor; girl goosed him from behind and his reflex elbow broke her nose, then she needed surgery.

Totally agree. I’m the wrong person to surprise with ‘Tickle Fight Friday’ JFC. Don’t touch people unless invited.
PJays
I scare people for a laugh, but i dont blame the victim for what they do to me. Got headbutted in the lip before, 100% deserved.
When i say "people", not strangers. People i know.
Whatwhatsomethingbutt
A roommate tried to scare me as I came around a corner. He did. I shouted & kicked him in the balls. He wasn't angry but never did it again
Xecryo
I literally did this to my first girlfriend. I bent down to grab my underwear after some sexytimes. She decided to grab my ass and it took>

They fuck around, they fucking find out.

Ex-friend tried to sneak up on me while I was bowling in me back swing, he had to get fake tooth to replace the old one, don't even feel bad
bear1cw
Got PTSD and I decked a coworker that did that Infront of boss, boss just laughed and walked away
Roqinn
I remember a long time ago, I was on 3rd shift and mopping a floor. One of my coworkers came running at me while wearing a Halloween mask 1/
It startled me for a second and then I jammed my mop handle into his solar plexus, knocking him to the floor gasping for air. LOL
Phobetor42
It's one thing to fuck around, It's another thing to be shitty when things don't end up going your way in the finding out phase. 1/2
To be clear, I very much don't believe in touching other people without their consent unless you absolutely have to. 2/2
angelsword1
Got it! The finding out phase can and should be harsh!
Spiffytown
A joke is funny if it's funny for all involved
SunshineCamo
When that happens I accept my death with dignity.
Therepostingposterwithoutanytitleperson
Lol a girl jabbed me in the sides after sneaking up on me in highschool. She wasn't tall, i jerked back and elbowed her in the braces,
And broke them apparently. She had them on for a further 6 months to a year i think
CailinAmaideach
I had a guy a lot taller than me do that in high school. I turned around, and swung. Pretty sure I did bruise his sternum.
FriendlyNeighborhoodGrammarPerson
I like to scare people. I understand that if I get hurt in the process, that's the risk I run. They say sorry and I'm all, "I deserved it."
quietwalker
I did this to a girlfriend once, I was very sorry about it, but in my defense, she did grab my junk from behind, while I was on skates
UncleRat
The response is to fight, flight, fuck, or freeze. The resulting reaction could make for an exciting evening.
TattoosAndTENS
???? “Fuck” isn’t one. It’s fight, flight, freeze, fawn, fold. Any good martial arts instructor will teach these. Schools won’t. Wonder why?
“Why didn’t you fight or run away? Obviously you weren’t really scared. This is obviously a false accusation.” - jerks
nat300Lord
I normally don't wanna bone a d-bag that scared me for chuckled. It's usually fight or flight for me.
GrassssssssTastesBad
Waiting for a bus one night and a dude comes up and goes, "BAAAH!" Right at my face but my reflexes are slow so I just kinda stared at him
ElbowDeepInBillCosby
That's why you just hide places and jump out yelling boo a safe distance away
LuminousElk
Yes. Like from around corners crouching
Exactly, safer for everyone involved, and no involuntary touching.
solidshaolin
My older brother got an elbow to the ribs when we were young because he did almost exactly this and he got mad because I knocked the wind o
ut of him.
craftyfox
Prank culture, full of pricks. I love it when it back fires on them.
Never understood the "sarcasm is the lowest form of humor" line. No. It's pranks. Pranksters are bullies who have low emotional IQ.

Funnily, that quote is originally from Oscar Wilde, who was being sarcastic when he said it.
Really? Interesting.?
Tigersterne
I mean I learned that some people don't like that in 7th grade, but I guess people don't learn....
levelfivedetentionblockaa23
I had an ex co-worker jump at us in a Target parking lot and scream, “gimme all your money!” I almost decked him after I recognized him.
Couchwarrior1337
Deck him, go "whoops, I didn't recognize you at first." Then deck him again.
orivalx
After?
Merdock
My BIL tried grabbing me from behind and received an elbow to the face. His response, "ok, maybe I shouldn't do that again"
Wolfshead009
My dad decided scaring my mom was a bad idea after he tried it and almost got stabbed.
yomahnn
That’s a very reasonable lesson to take from that event.
Knollimar
lucky they didn't get shot wtf
CommentsThisTimeLastYear
Those same assholes will single out people who startle easy. Maybe we should teach their victims some good takedowns...

Heyyyy…
thevortexmaster
I once hid behind a fridge to scare my buddy. Kinda forgot he was a multiple black belt. I jumped out and he dropped me like a bag of bricks
CaptainThePirate
I think even if you aren’t startled you should be allowed to elbow people who touch you without consent right in the mouth. But I’m a prick.
Kbantar
I'd call that self defense to an assault. Grabbing without consent is a hell of lot different to just jumping out yelling, "boo!"
I have anxiety so would consider yelling, "boo" at me still major asshole behavior though.
rudoux
You may be a prick, but it's not for that opinion.
noReallyIamPrincessBob
No, you will break the skin on your elbow and probably get a really nasty infection.
quaggie

barzival
A depressing number of people play the "fuck around and find out" game, then complain about finding out
IAmTheBadW01f
The sales lady at my office used to have a cubicle in a blind corner, people would accidentally sneak up on her all the time. I offered to 1
Put a bell above her head to see if we could startle her into jumping high enough to ring it, she didn't like the idea 2/2
Rogahar
My husband and I fuck around with each other a lot, but on the occasions it does go wrong, we accept that it was our fault for doing it lol
Slowelovin
I got super smacked across the face in high school pulling a similar stunt with bff. She smacked the shit out of me. We laugh cried
PalaverQuader
yes. indeed. and when u tell them in easy words.. they start pretending to not understand etc. idiots that need an elbow in the gut.
ChicanoBatman
Wife scared husband from behind and got an elbow to the nose. Cartilage and force caused permanent brain damage. Sadly FAAFO Deluxe Edition.
Zabulus
Oh man this kid put me in a chokehold and I just sharply raised my heel and blasted his boys. He dropped quick and called me an asshole lol

PennywiseTheCat
I sometimes fuck around, but when I find out I'm usually the first to lol. Humility is important and more ppl need it
Miyamotofan
Sound pretty proud of your humility there
johnnyshitknucklez
Bro dont you know?!?!? This guy here, most humble motherfucker youll ever meet!
Shaodyn
If you don't want to get attacked, maybe don't trigger someone's fight or flight response for your own amusement.
DarkSlayer54
But what if I do? Would tickling be an acceptable means of initiating a fight with Ryu, the world famous street fighter?
You'd have to ask him.
weird huh?
EchoPMIM
On the other hand, I can kinda respect people who find out and then laugh it off because "yeah I had that coming".
It's startling their numbers.
BearsDontCare
I tend to just naturally pop up out of nowhere, and I have learned to keep distance and let people know im there. Less likely to get hurt
samwyze
You don't really notice how quiet you move until everyone you speak to jumps at your first word.
drezrale
A lot of those people are also part of the "All violence is bad and it's not part of human nature" mentality.
MotherfuckingJesseEisenburg
"Not part of human nature" What a load of horseshit.
People are deranged when they think that humans are inherently good.
Humans have a wonderful capacity for compassion and socialization. We *also* have a wonderful capacity for incredible violence.
I've never seen this compassion in my life. While I was homeless I constantly got kicked and set on fire by random people.Thosewere niceones
icommentwithsteveharvey
If you're startling someone for fun, you're looking for a reaction. You deserve whatever instant reaction you get
HistoriesOfXandY
"And that's why I kicked the toddler 20 yards."
FoodSafetyTy
After a few incidents in my house it is now known that no one tries to sneak up on me or startle me that way. My response is also fight.
sixseasonsandamov1e
Isn't this exactly what the post said...
trikucian
I've been doing martial arts for 20 years on and off. My startle reflex is to throw my hands up to block my head, looks like a punch
SebastianCrab
I love to scare my family members. If they or I get hurt, 100% on me.
likeumreal
Yeah cool always on the lookout when around loves ones sounds fun yeah ??
SidewalkWidflower
Same here, my kiddo got me the other days so bad I peed myself (was in my way to that), almost have him a top scarer award
Yeah you too... cool always on the lookout when around loved ones sounds fun yeah ??
