Potato Pugilism

1. Two people fighting each other with a full sack of potatoes. No throwing of individual potatoes is allowed. Attacks must be done with the full sack of potatoes. First to get knocked out or have their potato sack bust is the loser.

2. Punching potatoes with fervor.

Potato Pugilism is the new rising sport.

pugilistic-diplomacy

When involved in a politically-tense situation and all progress has halted in discussions, it is the practice of applying percussive-logic to your opponent in the form of a beat-down.

"Justin was ignorantly speaking about 'homos' again last night at the bar. But my gay cousin was with us and got really upset. So I stuck up for my cousin and argued with Justin until he threw a beer at me. At that point I switched to pugilistic-diplomacy and prevailed in the argument."
