The popularity of Fried Liver Attack among beginners in the US is puzzling to me. When I was learning chess (in Europe), I was told not to waste time on it since it's not a "serious" opening. With black you just need to know to play Na5, sidestepping all this drama with black king in the center.

Or play Bc5, though you have to face the Evans Gambit occasionally.
