    Oh no he’s appeared in my home! I’ll stumble over furniture and throw 4lb items at them until cornering myself.

      Honestly that is one of my favorite parts about the Scream movies. The victims never go down without a fight and make the killer look like a clumsy goofball lol

      I have at least a dozen items in my house that I know I’m gonna be throwing at a burglar’s face in case of a break in. I’ve lived in first floor units all my life too so I always have a Roman gladius by the window. It’s not sharp, but it’s metal and it’s blunt.

        Metal doesn’t have to be terribly sharp too pierce flesh. As a 6 year-old, I accidentally stabbed myself with a cabinet handle that was extremely blunt. It’s all about the ratio of force applied over an area. The most mall ninja shit sword will still cause potentially fatal injuries, it just wouldn’t be a good battlefield weapon.
