Dazzn, I officially hate you now.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

It's more poetic if you assault them in club and with a club. Then afterwards, they can explain the experience by saying "I got clubbed in a club by a schlub, whom I slugged and threw in a tub." Maybe even punctuate it by saying "wub wub" at the end.

I personally think it is, since anything goes morally.
Bored now.

Aside from bullying, super-duper evil psychiatrists..
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

lol.. ok, so assaulting some dopey teens or people in general in a bar is "baaaad"? lol. who even determines badness?
somebody will say most likely "would you like it for people to do it to you?" lol.. who cares, the golden rule is not something most follow. people say things they don't mean.

Or at least he used to, until he was murdered in a club.
