The Things We Do

[O'Malley]

Top three responses when people find out I do karate:

1). Hi-yaaaaa

2). Hands go up to chop and then, “Hi-yaaaaa”

3). Hands go up and circle then, “wax on. Wax off, eh ?”

If 2), do koshi nage.

If 1) or 3), strike the eyes then do koshi nage. Great at office parties.

Surely you can hit other people? They’re just not allowed to hit you…the ultimate martial art!

When I hit people, it's only fair to allow them the same opportunity. Plus, hit them hard enough and you can bruise your hands. I've certainly done so many times.

That's why weapons are nice. But yes, it's very gauche to hit people and not allow them the option to hit you back

There’s the problem…your sense of fairness. Once you can cast that off you can start having fun again. Bruised hand…🤔…knuckledusters!🤓 Are they legal in the US?

So basically fold their clothes while they are still in them ?
