Super Rare Style Club Best-Practice Refresher

Postby GrahamB on Wed Apr 27, 2022 5:45 am

Hello fellow denizens of RSF,

I just wanted to refresh everyone on the Super Rare Style Club best practice we put together in March. 
I've noticed some people are still not crediting their Super Rare Style correctly, can we make an effort to be Brilliant at the Basics with our Super Rare Styles, please?

Our content is being shared across the world and it has been flagged to me that when the basics are missing it makes bragging rights and ego boosting more time-consuming than necessary.

In particular, it has been flagged that a number of people are not correctly crediting their Super Rare Style at least once a week. Super Rare Styles need constant reference, not just once a year at the annual Kung Fu Banquet get together.

So, here’s a timely refresher:


1. The first rule of Super Rare Style Club, is that we do not talk about our Super Rare Style, unless nobody has asked about it, in which case we talk about it all the time. Although, if somebody asks you about it specifically, you just reply, “Sorry, it’s secret”, obviously.

2. The second rule of Super Rare Style Club is to be sure to condemn other people’s Super Rare Style as bullshit. Just not your own Super Rare Style, which we can also refer to as “elite” if necessary.

3. At least once a week you must casually mention that your Super Rare Style is no big thing, except that it TOTALLY DOMINATES in all physical encounters.

4. Avoid all sparing type scenarios and sport fighting matches, or anything that involves “testing”, with anybody except your own students. This is not the exclusive venue that your Super Rare Style demands!

5. Remember, the reason your style is Super Rare is that it’s exclusive, special and THE BEST, and not because nobody actually liked it that much, so it all but died out. Those are lies perpetrated by your enemies!

Thank you for your compliance, and have a great day!

Clearly you know nothing of the true Super Rare Style because every single thing you said was WRONG.

You didn't even get your name right!

What are the rules for Super Rare Club to bash videos from a different Super Rare Style?

Is there a sub rule set under Rule 2?

Easy. All Super Rare Styles that aren't your Super Rare Style are bullshit, so bash away. See rule 2.

Bonus points for dropping in some variation of "in our style we do it differently..." then turning the whole thread into something about your style, or you, instead.

I have to respectfully disagree with your first post

I think we are doing a GREAT job with following this rule

I would recommend connecting your body in general but especially chin+asshole, crown+perineum, fingers+toes and all parts that are along the way in a sucking in - contracting among with a pushing out - expanding sensation, finding the middle in between those two while occupying as much space as relaxed as possible in your body.

Also be aware that all struggle and suffering arise from your individual subjective experience

Calm, kindness-love that doesn't manipulate in either direction is an emotional state that is permissible in most if not all situations in the outside world, but it needs to be informed by wisdom and insight

Metta + Vipassana for example

Finding the middle, neither savior nor destroyer is not easy

So it's Thursday and I still can't decide if I'm the butterfly or a 300lb Testo enhanced Bodybuilder, but I remember the ancient Greek forum to be at least as entertaining as modern one's

Has communication between people ever changed on a person to person basis?

It's always two hearts connecting in some way or another

Exchanging, without noticing, all insecurities and beneficial parameters of their own past and present life experience

Also how each person deals differently with their destiny is quite fun to watch

I hope that those who wish to be dance instructors at an imperial court with fancy clothing get to do so in order to satisfy whatever may linger in their shadows and blocking their source of light

You are unique view point through which the universe is experiencing itself.

Direct communication is very challenging. We bring so much baggage to the table that there's no room left for food.

I'm striving for openness these days. Come get a care bear stare little buddy. Let's hug it out.

The secret art of my super rare style is make ten thousand friends and not one enemy.

Except Formosa, that guy is a dick. -nunchaku-

I've heard the Chinese saying eat bitter eventually taste sweet

Eat the bitter baggage wrapped up in cabbage but no tomato sauce :-(

Then comes dessert, but chewing digesting shitting still have to happen

You could also think of rivals as a transitioning step between friends and enemies

Friends can still challenge each other, albeit not in the classical Kung Fu term with no rules

There is no reason to go anywhere
Sit down and relax, then comes a blabbering imbecile like me, sputtering non sense in tongues and making people upset

Tsts, I really need to work on my manners

I wonder if people who follow Knigge's eating rules to a T have ever had a real deep belly laugh

HAHAHA
