"I'm used to the abuse and I know how to counter much of it."
As Bill Cosby used to say...

You forget the multiple times she's head butted me in the crotch, the time she kicked me in the throat, and the time she pulled that Barbie Switchblade and stole my wallet...
OH YEAH! The other extra special one...
She head butted me in the nose and I literally saw stars...
