Literal punching is not recommended, except when dealing with members of the Fly. Aim for the spot right between their upturned collar and their backwards visor. 11. Remember, you don’t have to be a sketchy jerk with no respect for women to get into the A.D....but it don’t hurt! 12. Don’t keep walking around with your pants unzipped, asking members if they want...
...times, it seems as if people do as much as they can to ensure this remains a community defined by the standards of its upper crust, which always hover just below the surface, hiding behind the popped pink collar and the aristocratic lockjaw...
