I've been reading up on the situation in the Middle East and I've concluded war is bad and we shouldn't do it

If I was wolverine I'd probably just carry some regular knives around. Then I could pull them out without slicing my knuckles. Like, they're not even illegal or anything

I wanna be like her when I grow up

Like they do [checks notes] every single time?
