"Bro, your face is pissing me off, want to throw down?"

That's an example of the sort of dialog that goes on in a new app called Rumblr, which can be used to set up fistfights with total strangers — you know, Fight Club style.

Rumblr is set up like a dating app, except the dates happen in parking lots and back alleys, not restaurants, and they culminate in throw-downs instead of get-downs.

Sigh.

    In the spirit of freedom, we should be rejoicing that a method of finding willing participants is available, rather than having all the bullies sucker-punching random people on the street.

    Nah. Rumblr would have brought them willing combatants. Someone who WANTS to fight must be confident. They might be confident for a reason. Bullies want to pick the fights they think they know they can win.
