We don’t jump sharks here, or strap laser fricken lasers to their heads, we just fence with ’em. I actually knew someone who used a teddy bear as a parrying device, though. It worked quite well. The incongruity of it tended to distract the opponent.
Thanks to Benj Christensen for all his wonderful effort for Jenny Everywhere Day! The site looks great, and there’s some wonderful Jenny Everywhere art and links there to enjoy.
A trifle unwieldy weapon there. So, we have two Jenny’s talking? Curiouser and curiouser.
Yep, that’s what happens when you get startled out of a good depression. And yes, two Jennies talking. What’s so curious about that?
What’s so weird? Well, the other one isn’t a furry 🙂

I knew a man who used a large fish plushy as a soft parry. He wiggled it at people. It was very effective.
I used to use a teddy bear or a wooden beer stein. Both worked very well, but the bear was remarkably useful. Opponents seemed reluctant to hit it because they didn’t want to hurt the thing.
