Moments with Christendom Friends

I announce to a room full of people, "I'd like to marry a guy who can beat the crap out of someone else, but doesn't actually do anything like that." I receive several nods, and then a couple of my hearers go on to define in what way one can be said to be prepared to beat the crap out of someone, whether physically or mentally, and how the potential for that kind of action can be gauged. Later, I discuss with one of the guys how the passion of anger ties in to the ability for quick and retributive action in such a case. These types of moments are commonplace when your guy friends have bachelors' degrees from Christendom College.
