Master has given Dobby a doctorate! Dobby is free!

He might take the phrase "cut that shit out." differently than you do, though.

The thing is, my friends and I asked him to stop before. We were only semi-successful. The next time, I am going to try giving him this blunt foam sword that I have. It is less dangerous than a knife, and I think it might work.

I really shouldn't be asking for social advice on SEN (hey, at least it's not dating advice), but Azrael's advice seems the best. I laughed a lot at some of the other responses though.



Win by luck, lose by skill.

Why didn't you try that to begin with? I mean, most people generally try to talk to the guy before taking advice from anon.

Relatively ancient and inactive

If you have a friend that can't stop jokingly threatening people with knives, then stop being his friend. Otherwise, just ask him..

I don't see the problem here. Either he's a moronic douche who'll decline and who you can then drop, or he'll respect yourr wishes and stop doing it. Why do you need help figuring this out?

Quote from name:Azrael.Wrath
The next time you see him, before he actually does it again, you casually say "Hey man, you know that thing you do where you point knives at us? To be honest, it makes us feel uncomfortable. You think you could not do it anymore?"
This is pretty much exactly what I was thinking, and the best advice in the thread.

You definitely need to say it is making you feel uncomfortable. And not just 'you' but you and all your other friends. You can also tell him that if he keeps doing it, you will all stop going round to his house (and wherever else it is that he does it). You can still be friends (albeit this would put stress on it), but you don't have to put yourself(ves) into uncomfortable situations.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
