MMA is Not Self Defense!

Michael wright: I'm still laughing, that was funny!

The soul almost never leaves the body without a fight. But ensuring that it does leave the body is as simple as a hand gesture. Anyone who wishes to fight me to the death unarmed, might very well learn the hard way.

If you wish me to stick around then try not to insult my intelligence or belittle my own personal tradgedies, because personally I could give two shits about what you think of me. That being said, if all my statements are going to do is create drama then I will leave.

I am sure now there will be posts negating the things I have said yet again and in an attempt to not make enemies I will refrain from reading them.

I do proof read my posts before I post them, read them again, and edit them when I notice mistakes. My keyboard sucks and I am not perfect.

Pound, Hemingway, Twain, Bukowski, Dillard, Snyder, Ferlinghetti, Faulkner, Burroughs and Vonnegut were all writers and by extension, "artistes", though they never found it habit to flaunt pseudo-intellectualism about.
There is nothing about a real writer that is or should be pretentious. We're a subtle kind, an austere kind. You seem to know what you're talking about when it comes to writing and authorship as much as you know about real world application of martial arts. Please just stop refering to whatever skills or trades you have.

Panpan_Goat:
Eat a root you typical stereotypical, judgemental, by the book, irritating, dipshit. You know nothing of me or what I have been through and any preconcieved notions or conclusions you come to about me are almost cirtainly false/wrong/gay/stupid.

You made a blatant attempt to reduce my worth as an individual and for that I hate you.

None of you know anything about me save for what I tell you, stop pretending you do.

No, I am not mad, I find this highly amusing. It shows me yet again why I am the way I am. You are the ones who dont get it. I can not make you get it. Your minds are made up.

I sever myself completely from your reality, for it's manifestations within my life have brought me nothing but pain and torment.

Take your text book advertisements and commercialized lunch meat and stick them right in you ass. Your church and your schools are anti-sanctuaries. Your petty escapes and mind numbing tretchery is a testament to your lack of free thinking.

This is directed twards everyone and no one:
I am the one you fear that your children will hear. The children you molest behind closed doors and repent about on your death beds. The one who always fell through your grids will be the one to make them all burn. I am not a marionette, you cannot pull my strings.

By now I am sure you all hate me. **** you for being annoying, it has shown me yet again that there is no place for me in society. Enjoy your sucky forum.

You cannot say I did not try to make a possitive contribution.

My friend,

You came on here acting very defensive with folks whom are mostly here to discuss martial arts, combat and other of life's hard topics.

The people here are mostly good people - so I can't understand why you came with this kind of attitude?

I don't hate you; I don't know you.

Relax, take some time to read some of the forum topics and respond to them without the defensiveness -

Hope you enjoy your stay.

Whilst MMA tournaments are usually considered sport (just like boxing is considered a sport), I would feel sorry for the guy who came up against a good MMA practitioner

Obviously it is difficult to put MMA into one category (you get good gyms and bad gyms), but certainly MMA is one of the most physical types of martial arts training out there

Grappling alone takes it out of you, but to do that as well as standup cardiovascular training is hard work

It is like arguing that a boxer is poor in self defence situations. While I would argue (and have done on other threads) that a boxer will find it difficult once the clinch is initiated, he still has the power to knock you out

MMA is similar in that whilst it is mostly promoted in cages etc, it is still designed to make you an efficient all round fighter whether it be in the street or in a ring

[DickHardman]

which one of you guys are going to ask him out first??

[GQchris]

STFU kid.

I can just hear him singing now...

"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Sure it is. That's what the "M" and the "A" after the first "M" stand for. It's right there in the name and everything.

Well MMA instruction is that of Muay thai, Boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Wrestling/Judo......... what the **** do you call those things???? martial arts!

[taoistscholar]

Names don't mean anything. It is what it is. MMA may be martial arts... but what i see when i look at the majority of MMA is a comercialized sport. It's scewed from what's martial arts in essence.
