When talking to someone, you step up to them and grab their arm.
Then you force them to walk around with you, while you have their arm. Total attention.

- hdjjhhvvhga 4y agoSurely You're Joking, Mr. Mr Sgt. I can't imagine anyone doing that to me. Seriously, WTF.
- dusted 4y agoYeah you'd have to be real fucking important for me to not simply pull back and walk away without a word. But, I'm really interested in which situations you've actually done this, what reaction you wanted, and what actually happened ?
- drcongo 4y agoSame, you'd need to be Don Corleone himself or I'm off.
- MontyCarloHall 4y agoAnd if you’re Don Corleone himself, you don’t need to grab someone’s arm to have their undivided attention.
- oops 4y agoI figured OP was being sarcastic and got a chuckle out of it. Seems like it didn't land that way in general though, looking at all these replies!
- sgt 4y agoI got a real chuckle out of it. But I am feeling a bit remorseful. Will add /s next time.
- turmeric_root 4y agoplus if you do this often enough, people with guns will take to a room with free food and board!
- _-----_ 4y agoSeems like a good way to end up on #metoo
- kstenerud 4y agoThat's what's called a power play, and it'll get you into a lot of trouble once you encounter someone who will stand up for themselves.
- MattPalmer1086 4y agoI was once meeting some potential partners. The big tall guy did some kind of power handshake on me using both hands and exerting an uncomfortable amount of pressure. I just thought he was a total dick head. We did not partner with them.
- stevemk14ebr 4y agoTouch me like that and conversation is over.
- zecg 4y ago"Yeah, that's interesting, but could you fuck off off of my arm?"
- Gordonjcp 4y agoGrab my arm without asking and the next person you'll be talking to is your dentist.

- dang 4y agoCome on you guys. This was probably a joke. I mean look at that gif.
- a_m_kelly 4y agoNot sure where you're writing from geographically, professionally or culturally but I can't imagine doing this to anyone. In a professional environment, grabbing someone's arm and leading them around by it seems like an incredibly inappropriate breach of that person's personal space.
- yuters 4y agoTotal attention? You would sound like the teacher in Peanuts in the other person's mind while they're thinking about what the hell you just did.
- hackeraccount 4y agoLOL. Literally. Do people do this? I gotta try this with my wife - on the one hand she's going to smack me but on the other hand I'll get a serious laugh out of the experience.
- thefz 4y agoYeah. If you do this, I despise you.
- znpy 4y agoMy uncle does this. It’s fucking unbearable.
