Alright, the wife wants to watch that Dr Dolittle movie. I’m not watching a fucking Dr Dolittle movie unless Jim Carrey’s in it and he’s talking with his asshole. So I look up what else is showing and I saw this.
Nicholas Cage playing Nicholas Cage on a ship full of animals. That’s how you compromise on stuff in a marriage.
I don’t know anything about Judo but I used to see lots of Wing Chun and Hung Gar guys get beaten up by season brawlers or Muay Thai guys when I was in school. All this shit was normally initiated by angry kungfu kids who thought they knew how to fight. And there were a lot of them where I lived. The Muay Thai guys I knew wouldn’t go out looking for fights since they were already sparring daily in their schools. It’s one of the reasons why I took up lifting to get bigger(I was already taller than most of the kids). It was to act as a deterrent. I didn’t want get into stupid fights.
Never stopped any of us before!
We should all be happy that Chris tolerated having the second incarnation of this thread in the BSL area =D
Only it I am at home. The gym owner frowns on me plugging in the toaster next to the squat rack.
Robocop said it. “Stay out of trouble”
Otherwise, I tell my daughter…eyes and balls…eyes and balls…
Funny story: I was on flight a while ago, when my daughter was around three. She was acting up and so I picked her up and stood up from my seat. She started punching me, hard, with her pudgy little fists, right in the face. I was really proud of her; she had her knuckles, wrist and elbow all lined up really well, and I imagined how everyone on the plane watching would admire my patience and good fatherliness in not complaining or even objecting one bit…until, she got tired of straight punches and eye gouged me, and then, closed in and bit me hard on the cheek.
I sat down, and Daddy and little princess were NOT friends for a whole three minutes…
Still really proud though…
Guy in the beginner sections reinforces the false narrative that everyone who runs gear is clueless regarding training.
Most people who actively train and compete in combat sports do not go out looking for a fight, they have nothing to prove as they know what the are and are not capable of.
I know a lot of people who have never done the above, and lift/take drugs to get big due to insecurity who are usually the ones who think they are tough and look for fights because they have no clue what they or others are capable of. Fear and insecurity drive the dumb behavior.
Pretty much why the scariest mother fuckers out there are the ones who do not get riled up and are very calm when instigated against.
Haha, I hate this! “Why is there nothing but healthy food here?? Who runs this banana republic??”
I wouldn’t make this generalization. There are all kinds of dangerous people. I do agree with the rest of your post, though.
Confession: I really enjoyed the new Jumanji and Jumanji 2. My man-crush on Dwayne Johnson might have played a small part in this.
People who are not afraid are people to be afraid of. Goes for my statement and also in the polar opposite which I think you are referring to. People who are calm usually know how to handle themselves, but people who are not afraid of the consequences of violence are dangerous in ways more than knowing how to fight if that makes sense.
I’ve had exposure a couple of times (through work) to unhinged people, and they’re terrifying.
But of course, I’m the type to hide under the bed in dreams about intruders, so milage may vary.
Imagine getting to a point in your life where no-one gives two fucks about the quality of your work, they just want to hand over the cash because it’s you haha
I have been dealing with an unhinged (Parkinsons) person for hours. Sometimes the crazy starts to seep in. Wears, me out
I was given a liniment stick, and thinking it was about as strong as tiger balm I applied a lot. After a while I felt inclined to read the back of the pack where it says apply in one, at most two, layers.
I’m already ablaze, hence no flaming needed.
Even more? Can you give us a hint?
No new shit… just giving the heads up for anyone new reading this.
