Nurvingiel Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 This thread is hilarious! You guys are awesome. I'm happy to be exempt from "Is that anything like karate?" - man, would that get annoying."My five year old junior is a black belt at (local mcdojo)"Response: "He must really be a Kindergartener's worst nightmare."LOL McDojo! Hee. How about..."You're in karate?" Thanks a lot there buddy.Response: "Yeah, wanna see?" (We're never this witty right in the moment though eh?) Kata is like a good stir-fry: preparation and timing are everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aodhan Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 "What do you do?""I teach MA""So, I bet you think you're tough, huh?" (Hate that)"Doesn't matter what I think, matters if YOU think I'm tough" (That one usually takes them a few minutes to puzzle out)Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBN Doug Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 My roommate asked me,"Can you teach me how to kill someone?"To that you could respond,"have someone try to figure out how Jean Claude Van Damme is still making movies."Its bond to give someone an anurism.

Jiffy Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 I quite like Steven Segal, but I won't get into that, I guess that's a thread for the entertainment section. The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nurvingiel Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Good one Aodhan. If someone says to me, "So you think you're tough eh?" I hope I remember to call them on it. I'll be all, "Yeah, I do. I'm so tough, I can bend rebar with my eyelids. You got a problem or something?" (Except I won't really because I don't want to make martial artists look bad, but it would be funny.) Kata is like a good stir-fry: preparation and timing are everything.

Aodhan Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Good one Aodhan. If someone says to me, "So you think you're tough eh?" I hope I remember to call them on it. I'll be all, "Yeah, I do. I'm so tough, I can bend rebar with my eyelids. You got a problem or something?" (Except I won't really because I don't want to make martial artists look bad, but it would be funny.)Heh, yeah, but then most of them see it as a challenge, and get all in your face. I try to come up with responses that make it clear I'm not afraid of them, but without challenging them at the same time.My other favorite is to hand them a card, and say "Here, come down for a free lesson and judge for yourself"Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red J Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Ok, the grandmother of them all....Are you ready?....So you're a black belt huh?Did you have to register your hands a lethal weapons with the FBI? Response: No, blackbelt registration is now under the Department of Homeland Security. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
