yo what's up elmo, hows everything been going?



not bad, still on the same grind. knees currently hurting. pretty sure i cracked a rib sparring a couple weeks ago, but i haven't gotten it checked out since i'm pretty sure there's nothing you can really do about it. sorry i missed your msg on aim, but you should get on more often.

i'm on right now so we can agree upon a time and place to put your sparring and training to the test. let's do it bro.

I think when that guy said dont do drugs he was referring to fake big pharma shit, not real shit like dmt joe rogan building seven info wars dotcom

why is like half of this forum so narcissistic that it causes them to be severely dysfunctional

well considering he's probably making a lot of bank, has loving relationships both with his family and out of it, and probably isn't engaging in any self-destructive behavior besides a bad sleep schedule, he doesn't qualify as dysfunctional in any real sense of the word. nothing he's talking about sounds any more narcisstic than the average whining of a young adult without a family of his own in a bad job. i mean, your need to play a poor diogenes is much more indicative of narcissism than anything he's expressed.



eh C-

your burns are ok but its too obvious that youre all mad and shit. like "my need to play a poor diogenes." just call me a poor diogenes, thats a lot better than trying to make it out into some kind of psychological loser thing. causes the burn to flop. good effort tho.

also drwhat is a suicidal mess i mean artistic license and all that but lets not get silly with it.

maybe you shouldn't play the aloof teacher if you haven't even finished a masters. also, if drwhat is a suicidal mess, how does it feel to be less successful than one?

listen, babyfinland i think you're relatively smart (not half as smart as you think you are though) and can be funny, but you're also a hateful prick with delusions of grandeur and not an ounce of humility.

getting paid to go to some 2nd tier turkish school as a token white guy to up the international profile of its student body and still being unemployable in academia after you finish is barely a notch above paying for gradschool, but congratulations

elummenopi how long have you been doing martial arts



i did like 5 years of taekwando as a youngster, which was mostly bullshit but i could do crazy reverse kicks and shit, but i stopped and all my hip flexibility is gone. i started getting into general mma shit in the past few months. been training bjj 2x a week, and sparring with friend that's a kickboxer.

thats cool, i did tkd as a kid too. it is mostly silly agreed but it was cool because it was a place where people were all really respectful and caring to each other. i kept with it for a pretty long time, until i moved away from my hometown. we had a really good teacher. kickboxing seems a lot more appealing these days, i'll prob stay far away from mma though. how'd you crack a rib



that's the exact reason i got bored with tkd, i just wanted to fight not listen to a bunch of generic eastern philosophy and spend all our time polishing our forms. i had one trainer that was actually good though that had us spar and introduced shit from other martial arts. as for my rib, i took a decent amount of kicks and knees to my left side during one session and then when we were grappling that same friend decided to drop his body onto my ribs when i was on the ground. what's your problem with mma?
