Like, fatally stabbed? That's a bit much
But, you know, a flesh wound, a bit of an ouchy, something to make you think next time you open your goddamn mouth Kevin you ignorant waste of skin…
Yeah I'd say that's reasonable
Nah. Not fatally.
Yeah but injuring the dude's heart is way too far.
The appropriately-scaled reaction is to stab a pen into their arm. Or maybe a fork to the thigh if it's accessible and it happens when you're eating.
(J/k but like, barely)
I think we can all agree that intentionally killing or maiming someone is a step too far. A little light stabbing in response to malicious cuntery is perfectly acceptable
Absolutely, well put.
So wrong. Also world of tiers.
It's not right.... But I understand
This is why missions to Mars are doomed before they even begin.
Just make sure they can’t take any books with them.
The wounded man was evacuated to Chile with a knife injury to the chest.
His heart was injured in the attack and he was admitted to the intensive care unit of a hospital but his life is understood not to be in danger.
Reports say the altercation was fueled by alcohol.
Fueled by alcohol. Ya don’t say.
is he wrong?
As mod, I declare him innocent.

According to this it was fake. And seems likely since I've never seen a follow-up.
A Russian scientist working in Antarctica is facing attempted murder charges after allegedly stabbing a colleague for telling him the endings of books he wanted to read.
Sergey Savitsky, an engineer, is accused of stabbing welder Oleg Beloguzov in the chest, the Sun reports. Beloguzov was evacuated to Chile for medical treatment, and his life is reportedly not in danger. …
Although he faces criminal charges in the Russian city, Savitsky will probably have access to plenty of books that Beloguzov hasn’t already read. …
Alexander Klepikov, the deputy director of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute, said of Savitsky and Beloguzov, “They are both professional scientists who have been working in our expeditions, spending yearlong seasons at the station. It is down to investigators to figure out what sparked the conflict, but both men are members of our team.”
Some reports suggest that alcohol was involved.
Jury nullification.
If it’s in international waters, is that necessary?
It was on a Russian Antarctic base, why would international waters be a consideration?
NTA
Agreed. Had to block a friend on Facebook cause he would post updates with spoilers "wow, this part in X books where the main guy dies is amazing!". People thought I was being too extreme, maybe I should have stabbed him
Ordinarily I'd say that was going too far, but it seems like the stab-ee was a repeat offender.
Please let me be on his jury.
I said, not guilty!
“Let me know you get to the part where….”
I don't see a problem here, not one bit.
Quick, someone check to see if his breath shows up in the cold air.
I mean, I understand.
What did you saw about my cooking?
Bored now.
I get it.
