I got a bottle of Hai Karate on, maybe, my 16th birthday. And yes, there was a little flyer in the packaging with self defense instructions. It was, I recall, a basic hold break.
Illustrated. With a weedy looking guy in a suit fending off a predatory hot chick. Because... I dunno, Hai Karate was stealth marketed to gays? Or else it was a joke.
Predatory sheilas? We all knew the secret was being on stage in a rock band: https://youtu.be/7gqcfO9nPbk AND it's a song about cicadas. Who knew it would bring so many groupies?
You mentioned turning 16, which reminded me that at that age I was a drummer in that band until they found a better one anyway.
