To spontaneously get in a fight and throw down, but also mutually and organized. At the end of the fight, there are no harsh feelings for each other, because it was a two-way agreement.
EX. 1 - Dude, this rando was calling me out on the streets last night, calling me offensive names. I didn't like it, so I asked him if he wanted to sanction. He complied...I fucked him up...good night of sanctioning...unprovoked of course.
EX. 2 - Dude, I was being a huge asshole to rando people last night. I was trying to pick fights and everything (slapping, hitting, etc.). Well guess what? Some guy who I tried to pick a fight with called me out. He asked me if I wanted to sanction. I said yes...bad idea.

Empty and baseless, sanctions are punitive threats thrown about like playing cards from the U.N. at nations that commit grave offenses, such as North Korea and Iran.
Compared to a slap on the wrist, but less effective, sanctions are nothing more than United Nations PR "showing" the world that they are hard at work keeping baddies in line.
Not quite as powerful as the wag of the finger, sanctions have absolutely no effect on the country they are imposed upon.
North Korea, and Iran have multiple sanctions against them from the U.N. for crimes committed (ex. secret underground uranium enrichment plants)
However, these countries go about their day to day plotting because sanctions are USELESS.
Show some balls, World.
