new five elements clip from me

[GrahamB]

Say it's not true!

Jose... in my mind you were a mighty Internet warrior in Tai Chi pajamas... now I'm going to have to come up with something new....

[Josealb]

Sorry buddy...

But..if it makes you feel better, i make fun of those guys too.

[GrahamB]

But..if it makes you feel better, i am one of those guys too.

Fixed.

[Josealb]

Man - you've even taken down that "10 seconds" clip where you get bum-rushed by Felipe - that was one of my favourites....

I can learn from this.

If I may have a word: In my opinion Graham purposefully puts little things in his comments that he knows will incite people.
He is a bit of a backbiter and has a real mean streak. I know full well why Graham doesn't like me. There are three major reasons
1)I've called his bullshit a few times, for instance in the thread about my brief article where he made some underhanded comments, and in other places over the last year or so.
2) People in my school have expressed their lack of admiration to Graham in the past (both on the forum and I believe through emails). Actually, I think this is the major reason. So in that aspect its silly to get all pissy at me as I'm not even the messenger of these attacks. If he wants to get pissy he should be made at the people who actually attacked him.
3) I have made some pretty big comments against well known people in the IMA community. For this one I do take a bit of the blame. Its not really nice to go around calling people's practice shite unless you can actually do better than them yourself (Which for the most part I can't).
However, it is also important to speak out against something if you think it is fraudulent, so in this aspect it gets a bit more complicated.

Now I sense Chris L dislikes me because I bad mouthed his teacher. Thats fine and honestly I feel recalcitrant for dissing him, it wasn't right of me to do that.

Now Chris and Graham, I should like you to note that you gentlemen have also in the past formed dog packs against myself and to a certain extent I think my friends on here are sensitive to that (Just like I would be if someone attacked them). Clearly we are all guilty of being harsh to each other and therefor shouldn't cast stones at each other's glass houses.

I took the video down because I don't think its representative of the best xingyi I have done. I think my old video is much better, so I'll let it speak for me as opposed to just leaving the new one up because some people want to be able to say "hey, look at that guy, he sure sucks".
I'm sure if you were in a similar position you would also choose to take down the crappy video and leave the good one, or maybe not, but thats what I chose to do and I stand by it.

Now can we stop being factional for a few minutes and get down with some of the Christmas spirit that Segsy has been promoting?

[Josealb]

Tell us something we dont know.

Dont you have any respect for yourself man?

[Josealb]

Yeah, thats the thing. He plays game sneaking in little condescending remarks but almost ALWAYS seems to drop some incredibly stupid comment any beginner can debunk....and theeeen....always backs down without addressing the issues while leaving some other bit of lame attack as an excuse.

I mean, he just admitted he makes his shit up...and still thinks people should take him seriously. Why even bother to make fun of him? because its too easy and he brings it on himself.

Downside is by the end of the day hes still the same clown and theres no way of getting back the time wasted in the discussion. So...im out fellas.

[chrislomas]

I Certainly do wish all a good Christmas, and we can agree on that.

[mixjourneyman]

Good night Jose

I think I'll take Jose's lead and bow out of this thread myself.

Maybe Graham can fill a couple more pages with witty epithets.

Merry Christmas/kwanza/hanaka (sp?) or whatever it is that you do around this time of year.

I'm feeling the love for all my brothers and sisters.

Peace.

OK Mix - now you're sounding like a stalker... you're like my crazy ex-girlfriend or something. Dude - just get over yourself!

[Overlord]

Any one puts his clips up deserves my deepest respect, job well done Mixy.
