Refers to a person's using the well-known prevalence of widespread fake/mass-advertising correspondence as an excuse for his not obeying/acknowledging a 100%-legitimate-but-unwelcome message he has received, such as a hefty bill, restraining order, or other upsetting/disappointing directive that he does not wish to comply with ("Well, it made no sense to me, so I honestly believed it was just a fake message, and simply shrugged it off"). The effectiveness and/or defense-worthiness of said practice --- and your chances of being let off the hook as a result --- can sometimes be further bolstered by "pre-innocentizing" yourself (such as frequently showing up in court for no reason and claiming every time that you'd received an order to appear, and then finally --- after being irritably told for the umpteenth time by the court-clerk that they'd never sent you a summons --- declaring in a frustrated huff, "Fine... well, I guess somebody's been playing sick jokes on me, so from now on I'm just gonna simply IGNORE any and all such notices I receive!") sometime before committing whatever infractions would likely result in said unwelcome orders, so that you can appear justified in your non-compliance with what you supposedly thought was yet another fake order.

When you piss off all the bad guys so they'll kill each other fighting over who gets to kill you. Named after Commander John Sheridan of Babylon 5. Also known as the Dresden Defense, after Harry Dresden.

When you pull anal beads out of your butt to attack someone who is attacking you

The Rocky Mountains, on the Coloradan side.

Similar to The Chewbacca Defense, wherein a person will completely switch the subject of their argument to something totally unrelated. By hammering this point home the intent is to make the debating partner completely give up. In a Dead Chewbacca Defense, the point that the user switches to will be completely wrong, untrue or contradictory, and he or she will continue to support this point and hammer it in until the opponent has to go with it and submit.
Named for the Chewbacca Defense and the Dead Parrot Defense.

If you know your offense is struggling, and you feel like mice, there's the story about the two mice in the cream. The first one drowned, but the second one kept struggling until itchurned the creme into butter and crawled out until it could walk again. Really though, when you decide what you will allow to happen (on defense), and whether you will let somebody else determine the pace or the fate of what happens, is what makes the difference between whether it is hard enough to seem impossible not to lose, or whether it is actually impossible to lose. If you're going to fight, fight as you and not to be like somebody else, that way they don't determine your fate.

What you allow to happen will. Your opponent won't pass up an oppurtunity, so usually it's defense faaling asleep instead up waking up and fighting to the end that makes the difference in what will happen. When you let an opponent control your fate, they always will, every time.
