My father had a crawfish paddle, I still get shivers today if I see one like he had. A friend has a mortal fear of the sound of Velcro because his dad was an LEO and wore a leather utility rig secured by Velcro.
That sort of behavior would have had me standing on my tip toes for a week before I could even
think about sitting down. Thank god I don't have any kids, because I don't know if I would possess the strength of character not to take any punishment I handed out too far.
