Looks like you've just revealed your motive behind asking the question. But if you think you're going to silence me with that, you've got another...
I swear, there are at least two or three others here besides you who must not have finished high school. I don't see how this is a response to...
LOL, unless you rescind what you said about movies... your foot is still in your mouth. All you're doing is trying to out different spins on it...
^^^Coming from the guy who says one can become a martial artist from watching movies.
Those all were separate conversations within this thread. That's why you're so confused. For example, the only reason I even brought up Old West...
Huh?
I came into the dojo untrained myself, but have some experience scrapping. What I've noticed in myself, and others who come in to the dojo with...
You're preaching to the choir. I was making that same point earlier; I was just acknowledging what someone else said.
Thanks, but that's something I'm not going to take from others.
I always thought it was the opposite. Often, poor rural people get made fun of for being into "rasslin." As for boxing... I'd be hard-pressed to...
For example, trying to patronize others. Take your own advice.
I have no idea what you're saying here.
I'd actually have no problem answering that under normal circumstances (I actually did, a year ago), but if Buka was looking to turn this...
At the end of the day, though, it really doesn't matter. Sure, we can say it does while we're talking on MT... but when the fight goes down,...
I'm suggesting that local live events at lower levels and more common than that. For example, little podunk towns having arenas that are no...
That's a door that swings both ways.
I appreciate the advice, but that's not how I'm looking at this.
Something else that just occurred to me: even though TV didn't exist a century ago, and the film industry was still in it's infancy (not sure if...
As it relates to @isshinryuronin 's claim, these are things that would've happened a century ago too; not just today. Here's the thing: there...
It just occurred to me - I'm an 80's and early 90's kid, and back then, martial arts movies were all the rage. And it was always the real dorky...
So if a guy watches the Karate Kid series and practices the crane kick, the drum punch, and the wax on/wax off; he's gonna be a dangerous guy?...
That's because I'm suspicious of the motive behind the question.
Yeah, but it also seems that you all missed my response - that is, when you walk into a store to make a purchase (i.e., you're a paying customer)...
That's kind of a stretch. First and foremost, they are educators. Though they may not spend the majority of the day in front a classroom,...
Understood, and I'm not disputing that. However, this... ...throws in a "trust" factor; which wasn't previously discussed that I can recall....
A year. I thought most of you knew that. However, if that's going to be used as a basis to say that I can't call BS on claims that "this martial...
Seems equal to third grader asking the principal if 1 divided by 1 is really 1, because he didn't believe his teacher. I'm sure that the...
In this particular case, he's expressing a distrust in the instructors that were placed by the head instructor. I just can't see anyone thinking...
Bro, this came straight from YOU: The way I see it, the only way for you to get your foot out of your mouth is to rescind some claims. Now if...
I don't know the stats, but if I was a betting man, I'd say that quite a few Model T's and/or whatever else was out at the time have been taken...
Separate names with a comma.
