Okay, just kidding. You're talking about the mantis shrimp, which strikes with such a speed and force that it forms vapor bubbles from areas of low pressure (generated by its strike against water resistance). Once the bubbles collapse, not only will the shock wave knock the target out, but also emit light and heat - up to 8500 degree Fahrenheit. You better not challenge Freddie to a fist fight. | ||||

That's Harry Dresden from Jim Butcher's Dresden Files. His full name is Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden, and he's named after escapologist Harry Houdini, The Great Blackstone (full name Harry Blackstone Sr.), and David Copperfield.

This one is a two-parter: unravel the portmanteau, then tell the universe(s) they come from.

I'd like to put a hole in that bucket please, thanks.
To show that one wasn't carrying a weapon in their right hand. Depending on where exactly you lived, the handshake would also include either grasping the other person's forearm to check for hidden daggers, or fulfill an up and down motion which was believed to shake lose any knives hidden in that person's sleeves. | ||||

Alright, boys and girls, I'm going to have to extend the question answering limit. Prize payout will be the same, but you have to wait an hour between questions. You can still correct people and add to their answers without a time limit between corrections and additions.

Depends on who you ask. Nowadays I've heard people use it as a more sophisticated version of get the fuck off, but old Shakespeare would know it suggests a woman (Ophelia in his famous play Hamlet) should go join a convent instead of bringing children into this world. I probably don't have to tell how Shakespeare appreciated lewd humor - nunnery also used to be an euphemism for a brothel in Elizabethan times, which makes it a very deliberate double entendre.
