      Have you ever had a bully almost but not quite hit you, instead hitting something else, but you react as if you were about to be hit and flinch. And then one day you flinch and hit your head on something, but the bully didn’t hit you so they tell you it’s not their fault. Or worse…you flinch and accidentally hit them lightly, and now they have an excuse to really hit you. Yeah…

        Yup the West is always playing chicken with the east.

        When two people are playing chicken then it is normal when only one person is playing chicken that person is up to no good.
