Have you ever engaged in a baguette fight?

Two wielders stand close and jab, block, and hit each other with baguettes.

Indeed.

The game would be called “Breaking Bread.”

“Hey wanna break some bread together?”

“Sure thing. (Picks up baguette, throws one across*) EN GARDE!”

An oven is baking bread - the oven of Ciabatta. All the crumbs of the old Bakery have entered into a holy meal to satiate this carb craving: Breakfast and Lunch, Dinner and Brunch, with Butter or filled with Chocolate. The fluffy bun is already acknowledged by all bakeries to be itself delicious bread

You underestimate the power of a high velocity baguette strike to the teeth in such a duel :)

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
--S. Huntington

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.
