Count your blessings. It's no fun. Schoolyard fights were common when I was a kid. As a young adult the scenario was always one of my friends getting into an argument in a bar, and everyone jumping in. I was the innocent bystander.

Yes. College parties were peaceful in my day too. I do remember one time, though, when a commuter friend invited his neighborhood buddies to a party at our college, and all hell broke loose.

Perhaps this is it. I’ve never been one to go to a bar, I can probably count the times I’ve been on my hands, and many of them are for work events
