When Gandhi was on his first hunger strike

People would routinely bring him bread in an attempt to get him to eat. What people don't understand though is that Gandhi was actually a very temperamental man, and prone to anger. So even when his friends and family were the ones bringing him bread, he would take it and hurl it at them, sometimes leaving bruises and welts. He justified it by saying it was all a part of his philosophy of naan-violence.

Texted our mom and dad about our frolf game cut short. Classic dad.

Sister: We just got caught in a hail storm frolfing and had to run a mile to the car and Mitch had to cover his eyes because they were so big. It hurt so bad I have welts on my skin.

Dad: sounds like you had one hail of a time!
