Beat as in you submit to an ass whupping?
Damn. Like almost every day I see either of my half uncles by a bar or some shyt and they use that '' I use to wipe/whup his ass when he was a kid, now look at him'' shyt when trying to mack on chicks and I go over to greet 'em.

Buy 'em a pint, clap my hand on their shoulder and go '' 'preciate you keeping me in line back then, Unc. I'm good now so if you were to try that shyt short of me hitting my mom, gonna cut your fukking evening short, old man.''

Then you gotta do the whole ''This is my fave uncle'' routine and drop some dusty ass anecdote from back in the day to make the chick laugh 'cause I can't have her thinking dude can't defend himself or he less of a man or some shyt. Ain't a cockblocker.
Other than that, damn near everytime I'm in a UK pub and the blokes had too much to drink and start arguing, especially in Birmingham.

Been privy to too many punch-ups over Football, debates on attractive birds and spilt pints.
