In which a Greek woman is fierce, and I'm not talking about one of my drinking buddies!

A 26-year old Greek woman has become an overnight national hero after setting fire to the genitals of a 23-year old drunken Briton who allegedly tried to sexually assault her in a crowded bar.

She also won a technical Oscar for best non-internal use of ouzo.

They're all like that.

So when are we going to see you throw a drink and flick your Bic? Cause I'd go to WorldCon to see that. Or even DragonCon.

I suppose it'll happen next time someone wags his or her genitals at me.

[teratologist]

I'm surprised that this hasn't already happened.

I've been to Malia. This needs to become a trend.

[teratologist]

I feel that it should become a trend everywhere.

Ha, why am I not surprised it was a Cretan woman? You don't fuck with Cretans-you just...don't.

No but seriously, GOOD for her.

She's obviously very quick-thinking. I probably would have gotten flustered and forgot I was carrying a lighter.

I apologise for the idiots we constantly manage to offload in other countries. We've got a steady supply of idiots for anyone else who wants to practice their drink lighting for the next European football tournament.

This is no doubt being spun in some quarters as an "unprovoked attack" or "those feminists have ruined it for men" or something, but I won't go and look. Anyway, good for her. Give her a medal, Greece!

That's alright, you've got nothing on Americans when it comes to offloading idiots!

Although come to think of it, you offloaded some of the original American idiots, so maybe you're not off the hook yet.
