now, it's at the top of the list. i have been headbutting anything and everything from grandmothers to solid oak doors if they so much as look at me wrong. at that door really deserved it, i tell you what.

headbutt first, ask questions later.
Otherwise known as the Glasgow Kiss (gotta love those Scots), the headbutt has a couple of advantages. I think number one is surprise, since there's no windup of any kind. You're also using one of the heaviest and hardest parts of your body to land a blow. It is really good for breaking the other guy's nose. One properly placed headbutt and the fight is usually over. I have used it to advantage once or twice against in your face drunks in bars. I think it's a more common fight move in soccer playing countries for obvious reasons.
you get banned for slapping nowadays. :P
