She said, "If you give it to him just right under the chin whilst he's a runnin' his mouth, you'll catch his tongue betwixt his teeth and he'll bite it about half off."
Boy, howdy.
That one will get 'er done.

As brother Phil Jones pointed out, a good fight is the best way in the world to establish respect, clear the air and gain lasting friendship too.
But the timeless wisdom of granny already understood those delicate principals and has gained her the lasting love, respect and admiration that goes along with it.
Go granny!
