I don't even want to look at that again, but - what the gently caress is this?

Not that bad. That's a mouthguard, a piece of molded rubber people keep in their mouths when doing high-impact sports like boxing so that hits to the face don't end up breaking teeth. Dude just opened his mouth, so the guard wasn't being held in by his jaws, and then gets popped so the guard flies out.

Is it a known fighting tactic to stand still with your arms sticking out to the side while you wait for the other guy to belt you square in the face? I realize I have zero context here other than "fighting sports" but that seems like a bad defense against someone trying to hit you.

Taunting is a real mental strategy that can work if you're trying to demoralize an opponent that has fatigued or is being inaccurate, so that you can exploit an opening in their attack.

This man's opponent did not appear either fatigued or inaccurate.

I know this was the entire point of doing that, but that just sets off my OCD something fierce.

I have no idea what the point of that gif is supposed to be. I assume it's some kind of fetish.

So do you leave the plastic on or the fingerprints? Because my OCD is having to pull that plastic off the first second I can.

Likewise. It drives me nuts when I see people leave it on stuff because the corners inevitably peel up and stand out more then finger prints ever will.

Does anybody not peel the plastic off? I thought the point of the plastic was to protect from scratches in-transit, not to stay on forever to keep fingerprints off.

I have been known to leave the plastic on things until said time that it starts to peel.

I've seen people leave the heavy gauge on that sometimes came on the outside of a laptop's lid, until it had little crumbs and hairs trapped underneath it. It was pretty impressively gross.

edit: oops, thought I was in the PYF purchases thread.

I leave it on purposefully for a while, but remove it once it gets noticeably dirty. There's just something satisfying about having a device that looks brand new after nearly a year by simply peeling.

Working in IT, whenever I would see plastic wrap on electronics I would pull it off and tell the client that I cleaned it up for them since it then looked spotless.

Sheesh, with the angle it looked more like a disgorged organ than a mouthguard.

It's required equipment, and that's probably cause he keeps doing mid-match yodeling performances.
