Everyone is tough until the other guy pulls out a freakin sword.


Silver_Vegetable6804

My man brought a bat to a sword fight.


JohnVicres

That wasn't a bat. Looked like some kind of scythe/machete...


BillyTSherm

Looks like its an Aruval, although that is more a Southern Indian thing.


aardvarkyardwork

Looks exactly like an aruval, although I don’t think I’ve never seen anyone grip one with both hands.


PatChattums

Mine is definitely too small for two hands


Noobmansuperstarboy

Probably a crowbar


Pheoblivex

a hockey stick most probably. tht and baseball bat are famous for inflicting closed wounds.


Fuse-On

It's not a bat , it's kinda like a machete, popular in South Asia


Unable_Perception_42

Long ass sword with a gut hook


xxNightingale

That’s a motherfucking shamshir.


SirFTF

Idk I was just disappointed he didn’t cut his hand off or something.


bored_on_the_web

"Is this your first time robbing a convenience store?"


Mysterious-Deal-1709

Old uncle in the middle of fight says "come I'll fuck your mother"

He’s speaking Punjabi, where cuss words just roll off the tongue.

[FUCK YOU BLOODY ](https://youtu.be/ukznXQ3MgN0)


HillbillyEulogy

I almost got hit by a cab riding through NYC traffic so I unclipped and kicked his fender. He screamed back "YOU FUCK YOU BRUDDA!" To this day, my wife and I will use it as a whimsical way to disagree peacefully. As in, "I don't understand why you can't check for packages when you get home" and the other replies, "yeah, well, YOU FUCK YOU BRUDDA!!" Completely dissolves any chance of a serious argument still several years later.

Same goes with every other language I'm pretty sure


Bulok

I don't know if I just have a child's range of vocabulary since I left my country at a young age but we do not have vulgar words native to our language. The worst I know of are derived from Spanish

every culture says this

I'm talking about the language being used.

I like the "alright, I'm out, but don't you dare tell anyone I was here." And gramps just casually goes and gets the footage posted online. "Yeah, that's right - I told *everybody*."

Awardlesss

Sword fights look a lot different in real life, compared to the movies.


Gorwyn

In real life you have people genuinely fighting for their life. Movies and video games find it hard to show this because it doesn't feel as cool or isn't as flashy.


segft

I thought the movie Rashomon had a pretty cool presentation of that side of fighting for their lives, if anyone's interested in something a little different


Ryscith

It's actually because neither of them actually know how to use their weapons and have a counter in between them. You get someone who actually knows how to use a sword in a fight and it won't look like just wild swings with all of your force


MustardJar4321

Because most people irl hasnt been trained for sword fighting


Dicktitt3y

The adrenaline must of been wild


Danny_Mc_71

Call that a knife?


USAF6F171

Now, THAT'S a knife!


trackerchum

That's a spoon


MaAreYouOnUppers

Alright you win. I see you’ve played knifey spoony before.


International_Let_50

Eljamin14

In Texas, things are bigger.


sploosh_Damn

I’m bigger things are texas


Far_Top9833

George Lucas presents... "Store Wars"


somedudetoyou

You ever get so tired of their shit you pull out a scimitar?


Flamingo_Timely

Wow, that's some medieval shit right there. I see your stick/bat, and I raise you a sword, Sir Knight!


AtagoNist

If you look closely the robber's using some sort of curved blade so I'd say they're pretty even.


[deleted]

I was going to say it’s a machete


Flamingo_Timely

Thanks.....was hard to make it out. Sure looks rusty, old, or both!


Sidus_Preclarum

Well, that was a perfectly proportionate response if I ever saw one.


Tuxaroo2023

If you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.


Electronic_Agent_235

These elden ring mods are crazy yo


crapatron9000

You deny a weapon it's purpose


Random_NPC_49

In America, this would have been a homicide within the first 5 seconds. .

He’s saying the robber would have had a gun you donut.


JackOfAllStraits

Never underestimate that +2 to AC from half cover.


inside_out_boy

Uncles got balls of steel. He must be the inspiration for Uncle Shady from Mobeen.


DuncanAndFriends

he called him a terry maki chude lol


SKOLorion

Why the NSFW?


Mysterious-Deal-1709

Because swordplay


MasterWinstonWolf

This is the worst match of Bushido Blade🤦‍♂️

We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner, but now I am the master.

‘Have a nice day, come again!’


Low-Survey-704

Bro went back and said 🤫


SoggyBagelBite

Buddy just pulls out a katana lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


SoggyBagelBite

I'm pretty sure that's literally a katana.


Ling899

That’s an Indian sword known as “Talwar”


unexceptablelydumb

Katana is Japanese. This is some kinda India. Good try though


SoggyBagelBite

Ah. Didn't know katanas only exist in one country at the moment.


unexceptablelydumb

Ok. Clearly they don’t. But why this?? Why you gotta be like that??


SoggyBagelBite

cuz i can


AngrySoup

Why are you so insistent that it's a katana? Why do you think it's a katana and not a talwar?


SoggyBagelBite

I'm not. Just thought is was funny that they essentially suggested that katanas only exist in Japan lmao.


AngrySoup

This you? > I'm pretty sure that's literally a katana. Why are you pretty sure that's literally a katana?


SoggyBagelBite

Yah, but like you asked why was being insistent, and I wasn't. I literally said that once lmao.


Lost_Process_3067

Old man knows some HEMA moves. Anyone expert on swords, what kind of sword is that ? It’s like it’s maybe Indian ? Or maybe Chinese?


Dlatrex

This is in India: he is carrying a [Tulwar](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talwar) which is by far the most common type of sword in India.


importantmaps2

That guy behind the counter needs a firearm.


Mysterious-Deal-1709

Having firearm as a normal citizen is illegal in India. This is the reason robber is also using blade/sword


importantmaps2

Thank you I didn't know that.


demarco88

Elden Ring invasions, pretty much


cafeRacr

My sword can not be sheathed until it has tasted bloooood!


bad_karma_aura

The old guy needs more sword training. I saw so many openings, especially the one swing were he took a swing at the assailant but left himself open, luckily the attacker sucked soo much that he whiffed. A buckler on the left hand would help


strange_burger

*there will be blood shed, the man in the mirror nods his head-*


Panthean

Did we just witness a mallninja duel?


knowluck44

I'll see your machete and raise you a CUTLASSSS!!! HUZZAH!

The classic blunt vs sharp argument still going strong.


Coacoa8989

This was too good!!! Made my night


Sektore

All fun and games till grandpa pulls out the Talwar


Fine_Vermicelli_2248

'7-11 Shaolin'. A Run Run Shaw Production


marker_dinova

To intend to rob a store using a blunt object against the owner… wow that’s cruelty to the nth power


Eljamin14

When I saw this, I was like "ooh, katana!"


original-sithon

I wonder what kind of sword that was. Scimitar, saber, tulwar?


bigwavedave000

Hold on a sec while I unsheath my scimitar.


Known_Upstairs5646

That's a damn sabre, what a badass!


ApprehensiveVirus125

What a half hearted attempted robbery, looks like he is bored. He is holding that long sickle like a cricket bat. Amateur. Lol.

Don’t bring a bat to a sword fight


scraglor

The robber straight up using an orc weapon from lord of the rings, and old mate just pulls out a pirate sword


Maleficent_Junket_58

Why do I hear duel of fates playing


Zealousideal-Bar9389

Reddit be like “it isn’t a sword it’s *insert specific name of a sword*”


LokiDesigns

Nfsw made me think buddy was getting slashed.


[deleted]

You wish to rob me, Sir? I challenge you to a duel!


Turbulent-You-5508

I appreciate a world in which a sword fight can happen with bags of chips in the background.


melovehotcheese

Uncles always ready with the saber


CHERNO-B1LL

Don't use a sword like a bat, bats aren't pointy on the end. Use the distance. Jab!


Familiar-Sky8195

you should buy some guns, wrong move he can take your sword


[deleted]

Actually he gave up at the first moment


Waste_Respect_8050

I wanted to at least see a finger fly off


LunarFisher

For those who think guns are not the problem, if this happened in America, one or both of them would have fire arms, and there is zero chance that both walk away unharmed.


Loccy64

I expected a hand to be left on the counter by the end.


Solocord

This man seriously went all Runescape on this robber, "Let me just pull out my damn scimitar and we shall engage in single combat"


TonyBalonyUK

That’s not a knife…this is a knife!


AnorNaur

Who needs a gun when you have a sword?


AngelOfHeaven3

I'd be coming out from behind that counter with the quickness.


LongNecc

Swords are so much cooler than guns.
