This Pun Could Save Your Life

Over the weekend, I found myself involved in a discussion of what to do when one finds one's self on a late-night subway with some "shady" characters:

A: I think the best thing is to try to disarm them with some humor.
L: I'd think martial arts would be more effective at disarming them.
A: No, really, just make 'em laugh and they'll back off.
L: What would you say?
Me: [pulling at collar] "Is it just me or is it a bit muggy in here?"

Ba-dum bum, ching!
