Drunken Monkey Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 but san soo isn't 'wushu'. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."

Icetuete Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Looking at the posts here, I think they are mostly famouse for being completely misunderstood. that goes for many other arts as well i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Monkey Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 and back to my post. it doesn't matter if it is true or not, or whether you agree or disagree. the original thread was about the things chinese arts are 'famous' for. fact is, a lot of people believe that they don't work. so, ONE answer to the question 'what are chinese arts famous for?' is 'they are famous for not working' post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."

Treebranch Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Well I don't think they don't work, because the first kung fu I ever studied was far more effective than the previous MA's that I had studied. My experience with Kung Fu is a very different one from most people I guess.

Icetuete Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 nobody said that they dont work. drunken monkey only tried to point out that there are people that might think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treebranch Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Yeah, I see what he is saying. I hear that about everything these days. Karate doesn't work, Kung Fu doesn't work, TJJ doesn't work, Aikido doesn't work. I hear it about anything that isn't BJJ or Muay Thai or some form of MMA.

But Neo used kung fu agaist Mister Smith, didn't he? LOL Sorry guys, but I do not think Matrix had been the same movie if Neo had rolled with Smith with some dull BJJ or something.... (JUST kidding!) I think Kung Fu is best known for the life style behind and for the richness of styles, at least I do think it is known for that. If the first lesson was a failure, then you know that skydiving isn't for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
