So here's LiVEwiRe's little helper...
This picture shows how versatile it is. Two spikes to the eyes or even throat (or...well, use your imagination...). If you get a better grip they stick out about another inch. A nice crack to the temple with the semi-blunt end (which should always be pointing out from your pinky finger; it lets you gain momentum on the downstrike) is effective. This thing is 5.5 inches long and is heavy as hell as it is made of solid steel.
So that is part of my assurance. It is completely and utterly illegal yet I've had it for 14 years. The police in Ohio have seen it on a couple of occasions yet not one comment was made.
What's that you ask? Have I used it? Come a little closer and I'll tell you... {wink}

I grab my keys in the same kind of fashion. But I'm a bit scared of you now...
Oaw,that's my girl..u rock,terminator;)))))!!!
I'm not even mad at you. Do what you gotta do. ;)
haaaa I WANT ONE!!!
a while back my husband bought us each a whole bunch of survival stuff.... now I have a deafening whistle and a flashlight you can see from 800 miles away (which is good in the event that I need to get the attention of someone on mars)
but THAT thing could really come in handy!!! hehehe
p.s. I LOVE the frog!!!!
That's a sweet little piece of reassurance. I wouldn't mind toting one of those things around. I like how you are so matter of fact about the way it can be used. You go Livewire. Take no prisoners. Heehee.
Anne - No need to be afraid; you are on another continent. =) Perhaps you need one for the screechers?...
Foulla - WooHoo! That's how I feel about it! =) Terminator... that's a good one!
Goddess - Yep, that's right. And in some situations, I simply don't play. Perhaps I need to work on a sneer or something.
Kitty - Lol... flashlight morse code to Mars, I love it! Man, that thing would sear your retinas if you looked directly into it! I had an ex that liked it and made one at the metal shop where he worked; either find someone that can do that or go to shops in the seediest parts of the city... that's where I got this! Yeah, isn't my frog darling? I loooove me some frogs!
Anduin - Of course I won't take any prisoners; they'd just annoy me...lol. It is comforting to have it and it says 'business' all the way! =)
Ooooh. Want one.
ROFLMAO!!!
LiVEwIRe you are too much, hahaha!
You'd fit right in if you went to SA, let me tell you. All you'd need is a Desert Eagle in your knitting bag and you'd be sorted
:-D
Combined with your 'Beware' message it's... HAHAHA!!!
btw Who's the dude in the b&w photo? I can't see nicely on my screen.
LOL, girl!!!! Anybody seeing that thing in ur hand won't come any closer ;)
I think I, for one, will admire it froma distance ;)
Fence - Just go to one of the seediest parts of town, find a shop with delinquent-sorts hanging out front and bars on all the windows. They most likely sell them there. =)
Terri - Heehee... thought you might like that! Good, I've wanted to go to SA for many years so you tell me when and I'll bring my er, weapon... =) I'm sure I can find a bag big enough for a DE, too. I think it would be the 'beware' message that should scare them the most! The guy in the photo is Matthew Good: musician (my fave), geopolitical activist, and outspoken, smartass Canadian. =)
Tigress - See, that's just the point! You're safe though... as long as you're nice to me... ;)
Sappho - I'm not sure about internet stalkers... I think you need the modern equivalent of 'cootie spray' for that. I figure if someone is coming after me, they have their own weapon of choice and most likely would not expect that. That and they'd have to figure out which way to hold it...lol.
*cowers in fear*
My uncle, who is a special task force cop, always tells me to carry an umbrella, the ultimate weapon. Using keys or whatever else in your hand would still allow someone to get all too close to you. An umbrella has a wide ark and apparently is a much more effective deterrent. Oh, and apparently it keeps you dry too, in case of rain. I wouldn't know for sure though, seeing how mine is always at home when it pours.
Guess what I'm asking Santa for this year???
I'd LOVE to use it on a few punks in my neighborhood!!! Grrr.
Yeesh
good lord, that is quite an implement! p would love that little metal frog on your keychain.
I'm also a bit nervous of you but, fortunately, like someone else, I'm also on another continent.
If I had something like that, it could be a good mechanism for my stalkers. If they didn't stalk my blog, I would be blogging about them.
One of them threatened the other with his life last week then, some hours later, threatened me but I took that with a bag of salt even though he definitely is unstable.
wow - I agree, I WANT ONE!! (i always just used a spiked bracellet)
Bean - Not to worry! =)
Jay - I think I heard that, too - something that keeps more distance. And what did I buy yesterday? A Micro-Mini umbrella. Great, now my ass is toast...
Stacy - I remember the ones you are referring to!!! They need to meet up with this, that's for sure! =)
Prisoner - Just stay on my good side...lol.
Rose - That little frog was a gift from a former coworker who owned 2 real frogs named Hansel and Gretel. I think it was from Walmart if she'd like one.
Nomad - Perhaps I've just led you to believe I'm on another continent... nah, I'm too lazy and erratic to be one of your stalkers. =) You know, we really must do something about that!
Heidi - You don't have to cower... you have ladybug pillows in your house! =) (Can you picture this with the slippers?) Quite a statement!
Mysfit - Correction: you probably want one for each hand! =) Spiked bracelets work well, too. Given my tendency toward a perpetual state of gracelessness, I'd most likely hurt myself with one...
I want one of those!!! Found you thru Heidi, little earthquakes....
Jodes - Hey, thanks for stopping by! =) Yeah, it's nice to know I have that tucked away when I'm coming home from work at 12:30am!
I didn't know you were into chains. :-) Though I always thought you could do the same except using keys instead. I guess that one's easier on the hands.
I myself prefer to use a combination of aerosol can and a lighter (since I smoke). Baby, light my fire! ;-)
I am scared! That contraption looks lethal, to say the least.
Even scarier is that I know a few ppl I would like to use it on... hehe.
Banzai - You might be surprised... ;) And using your keys in that fashion is pretty much along the same lines, this just give more strength and stability. Much easier on the hands!
Chitty - Don't be scared... I don't think I could get it on a plane to SA! =) If you ever want to borrow it, I'd offer to mail it but customs would grab it!
o-o! & they say men are rough,tough,... ;-) that's some deadly weapon LW! In an adroit hand that can cause some real damage of no-return ;-) anyways I find it necessary to own & carry such things for personal safety. I mean hey we live this life only once & we better live it through healthily :-)
P.S: Ok I am keepin the distance. Tell me when it I got into range ;-) good luck
Dr O2 - HehHeh, you know, in a battle for what could be my life I'd like to know I have a fighting chance. I agree with you on living through it healthily! I'll set up a radar system that beeps for you if you get too close and I feel threatened... no surprises, promise! =)
ok LW you got me, i want two - and yes, i did hurt myself with spikes in the day, mostly i accidently hurt other people: like patting someone on the back wearing the bracelet or running into give some a big hug with my spiked collar on...
Mysfit - I can see how those unintended injuries could happen! (This is taking me back to the Tank Girl pics!) Eh, some of them may have even deserved a little blunt force trauma, who knows?! ;)
