Guess what: no I don't give a fuck that you're trying to "clean up" your style and that you train "right". No I won't stop trolling you. No I won't stop advocating bjj and mma whenever you open your fucking mouth.

Why? Because you blew your fucking chance.

Do I give a shit that you're trying to encourage other people in your styles to adopt aliveness (though I doubt you even know what it means)?
No I don't.

Why? Because you blew your fucking chance.

Do I give a shit that you try and encourage your students to learn to grapple (which to most of you seems to mean you teach them to crapple)?
No I don't.

Why? Because you blew your fucking chance.




BJJ came onto the american martial arts scene a little more than ten years ago. Modern MMA somewhat more recently. What did you do before then and since?

You allowed charlatans to persude people that athletic fitness wasn't a component of self defense and fighting.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that mythic figures had superpowers and that if they trained hard enough (i.e. paid enough) they too could have superpowers.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that taking 10 years to become proficient (i.e. barely able to walk and talk at the same time) was a reasonable requirement.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that high kicks were for kicking people off of horses.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that down round kicks (yes I'm talking to you hapkido) were for breaking the legs of horses.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that a morbidly obese women could defeat a trained, competitive boxer in a "real" fight.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that ancient tiny asian men could defeat any modern fighter.

You allowed charlatans to persude people that resistance during training and sparring were bad things as opposed to essential.

etc.etc.etc.


So shut the fuck up about how you, as a practicioner of some crap art, don't get respect even though you're trying so hard to fix things.
You blew your fucking chance.

Exactly what are you trying to say?

[UpaLumpa]

I probably should have outlined that.

[It is Fake]

You are missing the letter "A" in your rant.

[UpaLumpa]

You do Kung fu.
Toss my salad.

[Gezere]

I think Upa needs a hug.

[It is Fake]

You do Kung fu.

Yep.

Toss my salad.

Oh shit I thought it was called BJJ.

[Ke?poFist]

*looks around* No Kempo references?

Whew! That was a close one.

[UpaLumpa]

How about bullshit hybrid mix of crap?

[CanucKyokushin]

Whew!He's only talking about Enshin and Daido Juko.

Bush needs to take the arsenic out of the water. This is getting ridiculous.

It's ok Upa, all those arts will soon dissapear. MMA is getting more and more credibility. Meanwhile all those arts are deteriorating into utter garbage.

Ten years ago I used to go to a good TKD class. We had a punching bag, did full contact (not olympic or point) sparring, and only learned one form per belt level. Also the instructors back then were a marvel to watch.

Nowadays you have TKD classes with obese or old instructors that are barley Brown Belt level in skill yet hold a BB. Students are bogged down in learning two forms so they can be part of both orginizations. Then there's crappy one steps for countering a long winded punch thrown from a front stance. Even the most credible TKD schools teach olympic point sparring (which everyone knows is utter crap for self defense).

And no I'm not trying to fix TKD. There's no way to fix it in the first place. The people in charge are the ones that have "done it for over 30 years", not the ones that are the most profecient in their art. Maybe if you had a time machine or something or an immortality serum.

[It is Fake]

I wasn't talking about your title either upa.

[UpaLumpa]

I really don't care what you're trying to say.

[It is Fake]

Waaaaaah!!!!

I know you do. Really.
