I think you're confusing bad luck with stupidity!

Alright, maybe not stupidity then.

Let's just call it a BAD IDEA!

A really, REALLY bad idea.

I had an older brother and a younger brother.

Let's just say that clothing wasn't the ONLY thing that was handed down!

When your older brother terrorized you, it was worthwhile knowing you had gained new ammo for your younger brother.
