Errrr, what?
1. Phrase said on the first day of a new month, accompanied by a pinch and a punch to the victim. * Must be done prior to 12 midday to prevent retaliation. * If the phrase ends "with no return", under NO circumstances is the person that has been pinched, allowed to retaliate (as long as this has happened before 12 midday). * The exception being, the victim can respond with "A kick and a flick for being so quick" accompanied by a kick and a hit to the original speaker. This cant be retaliated to. * A version encountered on the Canadian west coast turns this phrase into a race of who can say it first, on the first morning of each month. "A kiss and a kick for being so quick," is uttered by the person who is beaten to the "punch" line. * Its origins are from old England times when people thought that witches existed.People thought that salt would make a Witch weak so the pinch part is pinching of the salt and the punch part was to banish the witch. The witch would be weak from the salt so the punch was to banish her.
