a shirtless attacker becomes your worst nightmare

you instinctively bridge and roll whenever you wake up from a nightmare

you're teaching your kid to ride a bike and start off with ukemi drills

you see someone taking a bad fall off his bike, and the first word that pops into your head is "ippon!"

[broken fingers]

you run away from BJJ guys

[broken fingers]

your stinky but you can kick ass so no one says anything

you instinctively bridge and roll whenever you wake up from a nightmare

You DON'T pay $90 a month to learn groundfighting. :P

[broken fingers]

you cross your arms in the mirror with your shirt off, trying desperately to look like Kimura

[Bang!]

You get nostalgic for the caress of a particularly nasty gi against your face.
