    Just quickly lean towards their hand and snap your teeth like you’re going to bite. Works with all sorts of unwanted touching, just be ready to actually bite if they’re also nuts and try again to call your bluff. Even if they get angry they’re much less likely to want to throw hands with the high possibility of getting bit hanging in the air.

    The downside is you will look even more insane than with just fork stabs, but on the plus side you will look insane enough people will stay the fuck away in the future too

        I’ll wager a guess that the individual that won’t listen to no may enjoy the “fight” and it won’t go well

        Might have to draw blood if the guy is really not responding to verbal warnings.

          Verbal warnings are for when the touching attempts haven’t yet happened. When the hands get close, the first snap is the warning. To have aura of insanity there are no second warnings

        People are prepared for punching or screaming and shit, but usually nobody is prepared to get bit, so probably even if the risk of violence is higher. But getting a chunk out of some jerk has its own satisfaction, they will remember it even if you get hurt worse

            It’s just the risk that has to be taken when threatening to bite, if the threat is bluff it’s not wise to try it. I mean it’s probably not wise to try it in the first place, but sometimes idiots just need some bared teeth at them to learn
