Here's some things said by thai bri. IO felt that the belonged here.
Lets review some of the classic arguments given by our Church of Bruce Lee Worshippers:-
"bruce lee was a featherwieght quicker on his feet than anyone or possibly anything that ever existed" Yeah. Quicker than anything that ever existed. This is clearly not illogical hero worship.........
"Ohh and if i want to hit trees and it makes me happy is'nt that living the way i please. hitting trees takes care of the im gonna do what i please, i meditate to calm the soul and bring happiness." Hmmmm. Hitting trees? Sounds impressive, eh? Until we get to the next quote.........
"Sorry im bullshitin ya about beating up trees, but i do use sand and pebbles." Oh dear. Bullshitting. And I thought you were scientific.
"Name someone, anyone, since then Hmmmm? At only 135 pounds able to stop a 400lb bag with a kick?" A 400lb bag? Wow! Sounds impressive....... until, of course......
"I admit I was wrong about the 400lb bag. It was a 200lb bag made by Bob Wall" There. Thats more like it.
"The reason Bruce didn't fight well known people is because it became dangerous for him to even spar with people without holding back." So, he DID fight them. But he didn't. Both at the same time.......
"I challenge all of you who say bruce lee was not anything less than what penocde had to say cuase its all true. Come find me and i'll beat your ***." A classic. Needs no comment.
"Thousanths of a secaond could mean 20/1000ths, 300/1000ths, 5/thousanths." Yeah. And thus it becomes totally meaningless. Maybe it could mean 3000/1000th? Who knows. What bollocks.
"Ohh and please, if you must bring no guns or such. a knife is unfair but if you want to bring it by all means all cut you with your own knife. i don't fear death like so many of my competitors." He don't fear death, man. He don't fear the rules of grammar, neither. Man.
"gracies? sorry i don't know who they are..." Of course you don't. Your knowledge of the martial arts is way too sophisticated for the Gracies......
"if you dishonor my teacher with disrespect. He would be happy for me to uphold his honor by taking on you. im sure that was'nt the most proper way to tell you. But, too tell you the truth i don't really care. First of all i did'nt send a challenge to anyone who does'nt like bruce. that'd be absurd, but i did send a challenge to all of you who disgrace his name with blasphemy." I love this one. The religeous fervour! The passion! The barely literate style! A true classic!
"What I have learned over the years is that people only will believe what they believe to be true. Even when presented with information the fact still remains ignorance must really be bliss." Fancy. People will only believe what they believe to be true. How silly of them. Durrrrrrrr
Yes. This thread contains the knowledge and wisdom of another Tao of Jeet Kune Do. Bruce would be proud...... so proud. Remember, people (and say after me) - ""if you dishonor my teacher with disrespect. He would be happy for me to uphold his honor by taking on you."
Amen.
