The sad thing is that lots of BJJ nutriders actually believe 50% of that...the only one I'm guilty of (and I don't do BJJ) is this one:

You quote down everything Royce say, and only then because he says some funny stuff.

[g-train]

i started a thread like this on the old "in the guard" forum.

71. you rub and pinch your ears secretly hoping they'll cauliflower.
72. are constantly trying chokes and locks on your poor girlfriend (or lucky boyfriend -girls)
73. you catch yourself humming the abu dhabi combat club theme song.
74. you wear t-shirts that say "bad boy" and "tap out" and other rediculous stuff.

Just in advance.

"42. Carry a copy of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu The Master Text everywhere...while trying to tell everybody that it's the equivalent of the Holy Bible"

Well, it makes definitely more SENSE that the Holy Bible.....
