Ultimate advice:
Opinions are like assholes , everybody has one and they're usually full of ****.

Someone will inevitably disagree with you, its not the end of the world.
Some people won't understand you, it isn't not your job to make them understand. It is your job to state your views and explain them. That is all.
Some people will curse at you, don't bitch about it, its allowed. Grow a pair.
Some people are biased to their style. Correction, everybody here is biased to their style, so play nice with others if they don't get you.
And finally, if your style of choice isn't on the "preferred menu" take heart, you'll find your way despite it all.

Good luck and don't be a spelling or grammar nazi.


Oh and BTW, ignore everything below this line for 24 hours.

Ask, if you do not understand...I have done that several times. Always with good results..

KS is indeed a forum junkie; she still trains hard. She came to our school and participated in friendly beatings with much enthusiasm.

Alright, question time from king dickhead here, now with an example! yayyyy! (Read: With the advent of this thread, in particular, Phrosts postings on 'necromancy" I wanna get it all out and clear so I avoid looking like a total tool, even though im about 90% there already) so without furhter bullshit:

Take This thread. Now, hasnt been posted on in x months and y days, so it would be grave digging if I were to post now. Given it's my style, I think I got something to contribute by posting there with my experiences. (as per the first post) Just checkin: that wont warrant a barrage of flaming goodness?

+5 for irony due to the fact Ill cop more **** for an inane question like this than I would by just posting, but I figured I should do it for a) posterity and b ) :f-off:

If the post actually contributes to the dead thread in a new way, it is welcome. We will still ridicule you. Got it?

In my defense, I've shown up to 2 throwdowns, posted about 5 videos of myself sparring various people and have had my face on the front page of bullshido twice now. I also manage to keep a fairly updated training log (for whatever that's worth)

I was just stating the facts. I was attacking or anything. Just stating that you apparently need a life. :lol:
I know that you went to a throwdown (I didn't know you went to 2) and that is much more than myself. You are young and need a life. I am old, married, burdened with hundreds of children, a mortgage, and a job. Kid, enjoy you free time in SpatulaCity...while you can.

Sweet, now I can go and piss you all off with inanities! Even if I now cant even be bothered posting on the thread in question. Go figure, but thanks anyway.

Oh, two pet peeves --

* Don't use an avatar someone else is already using -- it's confusing.

* Don't use a famous person's name for your screen name if you are not that famous person -- it's stupid.

MEMO POINT #247: Relax. Your opinions are not that important.
