Punching Lincoln while proudly showing off your TMBG tattoo... talk about a double entendre.

Just tell EA that mailing weapons is a bad idea, and unfortunately, you won't be able to return them.

I was heartbroken -- heartbroken! -- when I received the call today. Stupid sensitive people cramping my style. The irony, of course, is that the cigar that also came with the kit will probably cause more damage over the long term.

At least we get to keep the wooden box. And that handkerchief will come in handy when I'm old and have no shame.

Just send them the auction number and an ebay link. If they want them bad enough, they can have them.

Isn't sending weapons through the mail illegal? You wouldn't want to break the law now by returning them. ;-)

Oh well, just keep in mind that if you have to send them back that things can get "lost" or "stolen" out of packages quite easily.

As I learned in the 80s from the back pages of certain magazines, it isn't a weapon, it's a "custom brass paperweight." Just like switchblades are really "mechanical letter openers."

how can we live in a country where you can buy assault rifles (in most states), but you can't give away some sweet brass knuckles?

I don't think an article has been full of so much win in quite some time. Are there other things in West Virginia that need a good punching?

Could JMac put down a Thundering Herd? How about Chuck Yeager? David Felinton?

Absolutely awesome, especially the last picture.

The loss of the brass knuckles has surely created more awesomeness than their continued presence could have ever achieved.

I'd be like: Brass knuckles?
What brass knuckles??

Then they'd be like: We'll call the police!

Then 'd be like: To tell them I won't send back the offensive weapons YOU sent to me in the post?

Then they'd be like: Well played speaking cup... well played.

I think they're probably asking for them back because shipping actual weapons like that would be illegal (I know shuriken, nunchaku and other exotic martial arts weaponry cannot be shipped to and from CA), and they'd be liable if you guys actually did spend the day punching everything in sight.

Heck, they might be able to go after you, just for sending them back, which would be hilarious in a way. =)

Mail them back the cig box but inside, instead of the brass knuckles it'll have a video of you staring at the camera saying "no-givey-backsies" then running into the distance like a seven year old.
