Chick Fight – Initiation

by Amy on November 15, 2008 · 201 comments

Have I ever told you about the time I got the living krap kicked out of me in a chick fight ???

No?

Seriously?

I haven’t?

Well then …

To begin,

It’s not an entirely accurate statement that …

I got the living krap kicked out of me in a chick fight.

I didn’t really.

Technically speaking,

I got the living phucking krap kicked out of me in a chick fight.

Total,

Complete …

Annihilation.

Krazy, I’m tellin’ ya.

No, No, Nooooooo !!!

My dear boy viewers …

Stop that right now !!!

Slowly,

… Gradually,

…… Discretely,

Lift your hand and place it back on the keyboard.

I’m not talking about the kind of chick fight where …

Women-folk scratch and claw one another,

Pull hair,

Tear off tops,

Fall into mud,

And eventually end up making out with one another.

Ohhhh !

Oohhhhhhh !!

…… Ooohhhhhhhhhhhh !!!

Nope,

Definitely not that type of chick fight.

The type of chick fight I’m talking about is …

The one where one woman,

Or group of women,

Assert a …

Moral,

Intellectual, or

Societal standing,

Superiority over another woman.

One of those “I’m better than you” kinda fights …

Where women go no holds barred …

To make sure the …

Alleged,

Accused,

Asserted …

Less moral, less intelligent, or lower class standing chica is well aware of the identified differences between them and is thoroughly …

Degraded,

Beaten, and

Humiliated.

So not fun.

Now I know,

You’re probably saying, “But Amy-wan, you’re a Jedi … how could you have gotten the living krap kicked out you in a …

No, no“, I’d interrupt, “That’s not what I said.

Oh, you’re right,” you would correct and rephrase,

I meant .. but Amy-wan, you’re a Jedi … how could you have gotten the living phucking krap kicked out of you in a chick fight?

Well kiddos,

It’s simple.

I was unprepared.

One of the down sides of not growing up natal,

In addition to the whole just going through the motions, being internally miserable at best, and not even coming close to living life things,

Yo,

Is that I was totally klueless when it came to the whole chick fighting scene.

I didn’t know the warning signs that a chick fight was developing,

That I was in peril,

Who would have my back,

And most importantly,

How to defend myself.

Heck,

I was so klueless that …

Not only did I get the living phucking krap kicked out of me,

But I was actually in two separate chick fights at the same time.

And to make matters worse,

I was not even aware I was in either chick fight until it was too late,

And I laid broken and bloodied from both.

Ummm … could use a little help here. Ow !

On a scale of 1 – 10 …

It sucked.

Anyways,

I learned a few things from the experience,

And consistent with the whole theme of sharing my life here so others can learn from my mistakes,

I’m not an example, I’m a warning ! :)

This Chick Fight mini-series covers the Uno, Dos, and Tres of what I learned from the experience.

Peace be with you.

This post is the first in a series of five (1 of 5). As each of the posts are published, the links below will go live. And contrary to most of my mini-series, the only post that I have yet to complete is Aftermath, meaning it’s my plan to post one a day in successive days. Enjoy. She shoots, she scores !

Anybody think Amy might make a New Years resolution to post once a month?

Meg December 31, 2008 at 2:29 pm

Actually, Amy could make a resolution to post daily. Still not likely to happen. But, then again, she seems to have a busy life beyond Amynews. Good for her.

yodette December 31, 2008 at 2:46 pm

Resolutions won’t give her more time or less procrastination. Resolutions are only good intentions. Amy has no shortage of good intentions.

Bobbi December 31, 2008 at 5:36 pm

As the first entrant in the “Where in the World is Amy?” game, my guess is in a bar in her hometown….Chili’s??

yodette December 31, 2008 at 8:07 pm

“… is in a bar …” Fish. Barrel. Gun. … Duck.

JC January 6, 2009 at 1:12 pm

Can it possibly January 6 already?
And no new post of pics either.

yodette January 6, 2009 at 2:52 pm

It’s less than two months since her last post. She has been running six months between posts.

JC January 7, 2009 at 7:46 am

Amy, do you see a correlation between the deteriorating economic scene and a rise in clients needing your services?

Bobbi January 7, 2009 at 8:54 pm

I don’t know about Amy’s practice (although I would suspect that there is an increase in criminal activity that will only get worse over time), but part of my practice is bankruptcy and that has certainly increased!!! Interestingly, there has always been some increase in bankruptcy filings after the holidays. I think some people take one last opportunity to use their cards for holiday shopping and then realize they are over their heads.

yodette January 14, 2009 at 6:25 pm

Ahhhh. Remember the good old days before Amy had a life?

JC January 15, 2009 at 8:08 am

It seems like only yesterday….

Bobbi January 24, 2009 at 6:25 pm

We haven’t played “Where in the World is Amy?” in a while. My guess…since St. Patrick’s Day is the next holiday, sitting in a pub, getting in shape.

yodette January 25, 2009 at 3:12 pm

AT this vedry moment Amy is at her computer composing the promised “Chick Fight – Lesson Uno” installment and as soon as she finishes proofing it she’ll post it. … NOT!

JC January 27, 2009 at 10:32 am

It must be a very long post….

yodette January 30, 2009 at 2:32 am

First guess, about three months long….

yodette February 2, 2009 at 9:53 pm

Amy saw her shadow today. It could be six more weeks until her next post.

Sianna February 9, 2009 at 4:29 pm

gods her spelling got atrocious. When the hell did that happen?

now I know why she wont ever email me at least. Horrid.

Amy February 9, 2009 at 4:32 pm

My spelling got atrocious ??? Seriously ??? Except for my phonetic use of K for hard-c’s and fondness for PH instead of F, I thought I usually did fairly well ! Heck, I should have enough time to spell check things considering my distance between posts !!! :)

Hi all !!! :)

yodette February 9, 2009 at 4:33 pm

Just a guess – as the economy goes down the toilet, defense lawyers get very busy.

Amy February 9, 2009 at 4:36 pm

As is always the case … Yodette is wise and totally on point !

Sianna February 11, 2009 at 11:17 pm

Your spelling is atrocious. Your grammar and stylistic voice are both a train wreck and a beached whale, respectively. In summation your blog is a foul offense to the Universe. It is matched only by the terror that is your Death Star sized ego.

All my happy way of saying that I miss you, wingnut.

Amy February 12, 2009 at 10:27 am

LOL Gawd luv ya girl !!! :) I honestly love that review and am going to use excerpts when pimping my site !!! :)

” . . . a foul offense to the Universe”.

“[Amy's] grammar and stylistic voice are both a train wreck and a beached whale” and her “spelling is atrocious”.

Sweet !!! :)

other amy February 14, 2009 at 3:04 pm

Happy Valentines ;)

I hope your day is Roses and chocolates and a cute boy on your arm for a fine dinner.

Sianna February 19, 2009 at 5:04 pm

Amynews’ spelling is atrocious, her grammar and stylistic voice are both a train wreck and a beached whale, respectively. Her website is a foul offense to evolution and the universe at large. In short, George Lucas would love it. -Sianna

JC February 20, 2009 at 9:46 am

Don’t let Sianna goad you into posting. You’ll only be playing her game…..

yodette February 20, 2009 at 11:41 pm

Don’t allow Sianna to throw her into the brier patch?

A.J. February 21, 2009 at 6:12 am

I remember when I was growing up, that the schools would hold girls up as models of good behavior and wonder why boys had to cause troublem.

This generation of girls we’re seeing though… from my experiences with my stepdaughter, I’ve seen several knock-down dragout fights between young girls, a couple of which have ended with arrests. Never underestimate the power of girls.

BTW, like the site; I pop in once in awhile but this is the first time I’ve actually commented here.

yodette February 25, 2009 at 5:00 pm

Amy, it’s been more than three months since you promised the rest of the bar fight story…. Sometime soon would be welcome.

;-)

Amy February 25, 2009 at 5:34 pm

Jinkees !!! Has it been that long … I’m such a loser. Yes, mahster !!! I have bowling tonight, but I’ll post within the next 24 hours.

Meg February 25, 2009 at 6:54 pm

24 hours in Amy-Daze time, no doubt. Not that I want to jinks a promise or anything.

Meg February 25, 2009 at 6:56 pm

On the other hand, 3 months is about average for Amy postage.

yodette February 25, 2009 at 11:53 pm

Of course it is Meg. Therefore, the reminder. :-)

JC March 6, 2009 at 9:26 am

First! In March!

yodette March 6, 2009 at 6:23 pm

My, what a remarkably long 24 hours. Feels like more than a week….

Meg March 10, 2009 at 2:08 pm

I think Amy-Wan has moved to Mercury, where the day is 58.7 Earth days long. That would explain her “day” being somewhat longer than we’re accustom to.

Hopefully she has good air conditioning, as the average surface temperature is a toasty 350 F all year. At least there isn’t any snow to ruin your commute.

If she actually lives on Venus, we’re in trouble if we really need an Amy-fix. The day is 243 Earth days. But acid rain is a real problem there. And the temperature is even a bit warmer, at 850 F.

JC March 17, 2009 at 7:57 am

Drunk yet?

Amy March 17, 2009 at 7:59 am

LOL Not yet !!! But it is on my agenda for today !!! :)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day !!!!!

stacy March 21, 2009 at 8:03 pm

oh, you know, from time to time i stop by to say that i’m still alive, and i’m glad that you are too…

yodette March 22, 2009 at 4:51 am

Amy’s alive, but hybernating

yodette March 22, 2009 at 4:26 pm

She’s either hybernating or Hibernian-ating… the difference between sleeping soundly and passed out drunk.

JC March 25, 2009 at 8:11 am

April 15th is right around the corner and you know what that means, right? Another post from Amy!

yodette March 25, 2009 at 7:53 pm

I expect Amy will be up late on the 15th of April, busy at her computer… doing her tax return.

Meg March 26, 2009 at 11:59 am

April 15 is just aroound the corner, but it’s still a month too early for Amy to post.
In the meantime, I suppose we could play that old countdown to 100 game.

JC April 3, 2009 at 8:41 am

First!!

In April.

Meg April 3, 2009 at 1:40 pm

Wow! Are those actually new photos of Amy? Maybe she’s getting ready to post.

yodette April 4, 2009 at 1:17 am

Amy has a kitty?

Meg April 4, 2009 at 2:05 am

Yodette,
I believe that is the new man in Amy’s life. If memory serve me correctly after lo these many months from an earlier post.

yodette April 4, 2009 at 2:46 am

I vaguely recall, now that you mention it.

So much time. So few posts.

Meg April 4, 2009 at 1:04 pm

100
