fighting

many people believe that fighting serves no purpose. In fact, fighting serves EXACTLY the purpose of the two participants. Everybody gets hurt.

While it is possible to "win" a fight, it is exceedingly rare. Winning requires that each participant be almost identically capable of inflicting damage, and that each one possesses an honest belief that the fight is a good idea.

Otherwise it is simply 'somebody getting beat up'.
