bullshido taking the piss

[Dale Dugas]

It seems the people over at Bullshido are enjoying themselves at the expense of some of the members here.

take a gander here

The thread they are talking about is ancient if I remember correctly.

home of the most goddamn pretentious fucks ever to take up a Martial Art/Geriatric Fitness Program.

Hee hee! I may have found my new sig line.

I think they are confusing us with before the great split.

...wow...not discussing other, ah, unique aspects of this guy´s mind, we know one thing for fairly certain: he´s psychic. At least when Felipé or someone else looks at that and then does what he Foresaw in his own post...

Thank you, Dale. That was a disturbing insight into, well, something.

Sarcasm. Oh yeah, like that´ll work.

To the pit...

Personally, I think it's hysterical. Even the stuff we're going to keep needs to be subjected to healthy amounts of sillyness and ridicule. Frankly, if we're not going to police our own stuff by making fun of ourselves, others are going to do it for us...and well they should. Take the Robot Tai Chi clip. It is funny. Really funny, not just an, "okay, that looks a little odd, I'll admit" kinda way, but really funny. Hell, it may even work for teaching that form, but it's still just silly as all get out, and nobody should be shouting that fact louder than those actually promoting it.

The exactly wrong response is the one that CaliG gave. It completely confirms (to them) everything they are stereotyping us with. It says we take ourselves waaay too damn seriously and that we can't take a joke or laugh when something's funny. We then classically engage in psychological projection by rationalizing that, "I don't take my self seriously, but my art is sacred territory that can't be impuned in any way by pointing that some of the things it contains are funny". Sorry, guys, but as I have to occasionally bring up around here, martial arts don't exist. They are abstract labels for describing sets of physical behavior by certain humans. They don't have feelings to hurt, pride to act as a stumbling block, nor face to save. They're us.

If you really want to throw the younglings just discovering the joys of hero worship and masturbation over at Bullshido a curve, you'd not only acknowledge the humor in a clip like that, but provide even more where that came from. That would take the wind right out of that proverbial sail. Show them you're not too blinded by groupthink, Confucianism, insecurity and self-deception to look at what you do objectively on its functional merits, nor to consider other methods which may be outside of what you're already doing with the very same objective perspective.

Ill-bred children are wont to throw stones- what more is there to say?

The video IS funny. However I wonder how come Red Leaves and BS didn't merge yet?

Yes, our other even more homiest home where we have all our secret Sinophile LARP-er meetings to plan and say incredibly silly stuff that could be made fun of on bullshido. Thank goodness they don't know about Emptyflower.net and all it's sweet sweet potential for ridicule.

S- the fools..they thought they had found our headquarters..ha ha ha ha!

[Dmitri]

Oh no... What should we do, what should we do?!
Maybe we should rename our forum into something else, then?
How about www.wedontgiveashit.com? Ah, damn, that's already taken...

[shawnsegler]

until discovering the wetlands, I thought my yearning to feel the hard swollen penis of a black man inside my bored housewife pussy would always be unfulfilled

nice copy.
