one foot, lift one of your legs back to charge for the kick, and simultaneously drop your subject (Figure 6). Caution: It is important to note here that you must drop the subject. Do not toss him! This is a dropkick, not some pansy tosskick (Figure 7). Do it right, don’t be an asshole.

      STEP 3: Connect the kick with the face. As awesome as this is, try to stay focused to make it count (Figure 8). You may optionally gloat, but do not initiate some stupid Super Bowl touchdown dance. This will only make you look stupid, which may qualify you for a cock punch of your own.

      PLAIN OLD HONEST-TO-GOD PUNCH TO THE MOUTH

      Sometimes a friend or relative will do or say something so stupid that you have no choice but to cock your arm back and slug that son of a bitch right in the mouth. Sometimes the person is so annoying that this happens involuntarily, like your arms transform into sentient beings with a primal sense of justice, lashing out at the source of your frustration like a reflex; nothing too showy, just a plain old-fashioned punch to the kisser (Figure 9).

      For example, everyone knows someone who will drive an extra ten minutes across town to buy gas from a station selling its fuel for $.01 per gallon cheaper than other gas stations. For 99 percent of the population, it’s obvious why this is stupid, but for the rest of you who don’t understand why it’s a waste of time (i.e., the two or three women who will get this far into the book), I’ll elaborate: the average car can hold fifteen gallons per tank, so if you save $.01 per gallon, that’s $0.15 you save every time you fill up, which is usually once per week for most people. So that means you’ll save $0.60 per month, or $7.20 per year. If the average person drives from the age of sixteen to sixty-five, that’s forty-nine years of driving, which brings your grand total of lifetime savings to: $dick.

      When you point this out to your frugal acquaintance, he will ramble on for hours with various precalculated scenarios designed to save him a trivial amount of pocket change. What these tight-fisted misers don’t realize is the amount of money they could save by not having to buy extra food to restore the countless calories of energy they expel by simply not shutting the fuck up about how much money they save on gasoline.

      These are the same people who consider it a wise investment of their time to undertake the laborious task of pouring over newspapers on the off chance of finding a coupon for a product that they want—let alone need. You see these people everywhere: haggling over the price of candy at checkout counters, sending back steaks that don’t live up to their epicurean standards at Red Lobster, and bringing commerce to a grinding halt by tediously writing out every letter of every number on their checks. No man pays with checks. Real men pay for things with real money. Slabs of molded ore if possible, and if not, then with big crumpled wads of lint-caked bills, straight from our swampy pockets to the register. Cut the foreplay; you give us stuff, we give you money; end of transaction. None of this organized memo-field bullshit. If you need a memo to remind you of what you spent your money on, then you probably shouldn’t be buying it in the first place. Stick to the basics.

      Speaking of basics, as straightforward as a punch to the mouth can be, it’s not as efficient as it could be at delivering the ass kicking.

      The fewer joints involved in pummeling someone, the less likely it will be that one of the joints will bend incorrectly, which could dampen a blow. A more direct approach would be to forego the wrist joint entirely. In other words, cut the middleman and go right to the elbow.

      MOUTH FULL OF ELBOW

      Hitting someone in the mouth with your elbow requires close proximity to your target. One of the few occasions that you might get close enough to someone to make a delivery is when you’re talking to a friend or a relative.

      You might be hesitant at first to pummel a friend, but here’s a thought: by not hitting your close acquaintances, you’re discriminating against them. What kind of friend discriminates? Show him that you’re a true friend by giving him a taste of your elbow (Figure 10).

      HEAD-BUTT TO THE OVARIES

      Sometimes a woman will manipulate a man with her striking good looks and flirtatious demeanor. This type of woman can live her entire life without lifting a finger to earn a penny; instead, she opts to lead men on with a life that can best be described as one long cock tease of an existence. Since it’s unbecoming of a man to hit a woman,2 sometimes a guy needs to find another method to keep her in line. Sometimes a man needs to head-butt a woman in the ovaries.

      The head-butt is tricky to maneuver since there are very few reasons a guy should ever find himself kneeling in front of a woman. One potentially legitimate reason a woman might expect to find a guy on his knees is for a proposal—which is clichéd and stupid, but play along. Just get on one knee and reach into your pocket like you’re going to pull out a ring. Then when she least expects it, grab her thighs, buck your head back (Figure 11), and thrust your forehead into her baby maker (Figure 12).

      BACK BREAKER

      Tired of foreplay? Want to tell a certain someone “I’m not working late this weekend, so you can kiss my black ass” in not so many words—or no words at all? The back breaker is a great alternative and will assert your manliness like few other ass kicking methods will.

      To break someone’s back, you have all the tools you need on your body: hands and knees. Here’s how:

      STEP 1: Take hold of your opponent and lift him in the air above your head. Make sure to do this dramatically, like a professional wrestler would (Figure 13).

      Figure 13

      STEP 2: Drop on one knee so that your other leg is extended outward, then thrust your victim down onto your outstretched knee so that the center of his lower back takes the brunt of your thrust (Figure 14). You may now make a formal declaration that his shit has been ruined.

      Note: after administering the back breaker, your victim won’t be able to walk, so you may get cited for littering if you leave him lying in the street.
