Types of ass kicking

The usual ass kicking appears within the context of conflict. One party fights or competes with another, and achieves a lopsided favorable victory.

Fighting

Physical conflict (such as officially sanctioned or non-sanctioned brawling) can be called ass kicking if a party can not offer an effective offense or defense to their attacker. Scientists can gauge the level of ass kicking by observing their brutal pummeling, or study of their numerous injuries (most telling of which being a black eye) in comparison to the victor's lack of injury.

War

During warfare, Battles where one side delivers disproportionate amounts of damage to the other are considered ass kickings. Opponents often achieve this kind of success by possessing superior weapons, greater numbers, or successful execution of a surprise attack. If the loser delivers significantly huge amounts of damage to the victor prior to their defeat, it is also considered an ass kicking.

Sports and video games

Ass kicking in sports or video games occur whenever one opponent achieves the overwhelming score over the other during game play. If the beating is obvious during gameplay itself, the term used while gameplay is active is "getting their ass(es) kicked".

Needless to say, every country that volunteered to sacrifice themselves was subjected to the most all encompassing ass kicking in sports history.
