So I said to him: look here mate!, if you don't cut your sh!t out, I gonna throttle ya. And after word got out about who I was; I got quite a lot of respect.

Needless to say. You don't fark with someone who has deep gang relations, comes from a kooky family, and has enough martial arts background to maim you with one finger.

Oh what a world we live in.

Hmmm...my stepbrother has a black belt in Tae-Kwon-Do, but I can still kick his ass...(though I'm about twice his size lol...).

I did get into an altercation with a guy at work who I disliked intensely, anyway one thing led to another and he sucker punched me in the mouth...
I figured that was a blessing in disguise and instead of fighting I just told my manager who promptly fired the guy. which was exactly what I wanted....lol

worst for me is the wankers that backstab you...I hate that.

Belts hold your trousers up, nothing more.

Black belts are really easy to get at most "Dojos". There are still some good ones left however. It took my mother ten years of training and sparring to get hers.

I've worked with them....and I've worked for them.

I'm not the most patient person in the world....nor the most intelligent....but, I've learned that if you can't deal with them, it's a good idea to move on.

My current boss has a college degree and is cocky as hell (he's the only one at my location that graduated college)....if it wasn't for the other 4 guys I work with and the pay, I'd probably have gone else where by now. Unfortunately, it does no good to complain to the company owner because my boss is his son....

In my opinion, Tae-Kwon-Do is not a very good fighting art. In fact, I know a few people who switched over to "Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate Do" and they said it beats Tae-Kwon-Do hands down.

We're quite lucky in the Wairarapa, we have some of the top trainers in New Zealand and we cross train quite a bit, BJJ, Boxing, Kickboxing, etc.

Plus I've been told I have a natural talent for it lol.

But I absolutely despise violence. I had to say something to the smart-ass at work giving me a hard time.

Damn, factory people are loony.

Awesome 80's band.

I have to agree with that.

Would love to try out the style, but kind of limited in my area.

Anyway, Ninjutsu is meant to be the best. It covers absolutely everything.

My bro studied for 8 years....maybe your mom was a poor student..?

Or maybe she purposely missed gradings until she thought she was worthy of the grade.
