I thought it was pretty funny & true.
The three arts mentioned relate to the internal arts.

Please dont take this too seriously, it is just fun, er unless you think you have been infected
Yep, I think it is a good ole case of IwanttofightandbeamartialartsguyandIdonthavepatience-itus
Symptoms:
1)
learn one thing, takes too long and is too hard, so only learn a little, or learn it half assed, then complain that it does not work or is not complete, so move on to "the other system" that has everything the first one you did not learn lacks...but this one is surprisingly hard as well and slow to learn as well so repeat the steps above, then repeat all again with a new style, then rifle through the most easily applicable to fighting methods that were not even halfway absorbed in all three of the styles, and put them together;
Presto, now there is "gongfu" made from three distict styles with completely indistict methods that were indistictly not learned at all because there was just not enough time to wait for teacher to inject the students arm with long term gongfu study serum.
2)
Next step, become a teacher, because the very basic half baked level of the three arts that were not learned well combined can be used in a simple (in comparison to any one of the single deep arts if actually learned) and effective way against others who know even less if you add a little more strength and maybe some BJJ and kickboxing...oh, and marketing, sorry forgot that one.
3)
Be totally unaware of the collosal failure to patiently persue and absorb the deep internal art that you did not learn, (similar to a certain age related form of dimentia) or conveniently forget to mention it to your students.
In the late stages of the disease the patient begins to actually "shed students" like the herpes virus...they are produced in droves, all having the firm belief that what they know is the universal truth, as it has been implanted in their very DNA for reproductive purposes by a special process the Virus uses to attack brain cells that can be called Shifu-psycho-phillus.
Protective measures:
When encountering such shedded students one should protect themselves by wearing masks, ear plugs, sunglasses, even bad smelling perfume, whatever it takes...
Cure-treatment:
No reliable cure has yet been approved, though treatment is under research study. Some patients respond to "someonewithactualinternalgongfujustkickedmyass therapy" but not all as in some cases the brain cell damage by the virus is too advanced. In other cases this type of therapy cannot be used because the patients resistance to the therapy is great and the necessary dose of the drugs would probably kill or incapacitate the patient.
Currently quarantine is being investigated as an option.
