gollark: <@178552839721844736> I've heard different things. Fighting is a learned skill like anything else, and having actual practice through MMA and whatnot is almost certainly better than "I'll just poke them in a vulnerable part" or something.

gollark: Unless people just panic-buy instantly when it's back in response to how much was panic-bought before.
gollark: Hopefully people will stop panic-buying eventually so there'll actually be pasta and whatnot available in stores nearby soon.
