maybe I SHOULD calm down.

[lucidmist]

This from "watch your mouth" boy himself? Interesting.

i think garland and jubajizz are a couple.

anyway, like i said, people make mistakes, i made mine, i apologized, and no one else seems to be as bugged by my stuff as you, jubajizz. i'm sorry you're not man enough to handle it, or even handle an apology when someone's big enough to admit his mistakes. that and plus the fact that whatever i said never even amounted to half the meanness or crude and rude stuff that someone "great" like you have said throughout the entire forum. someone's made a mistake, said sorry to everyone, what more do you want? a fight? a battle to the death? you wanna pick a fight, go fight someone who's a real master then, because you and garland just love to show everyone you know everything.

grow up.

unlike you and garland, using classless vulgarities and mindless insults, that's just a whole lot better than me. yup. definitely you've both accomplished much more than anybody else.

Nope...once again, you assume too much, ass. There are functional systems, and there are garbage systems. If somebody trains for their whole life in a garbage system...they'd be better off curling up in a ball, and will be worse for wear than if they hadn't ingrained all those bad habits into their muscle memory.

Functional, combative systems teach people how to fight, and moreover, how to survive and overcome physical situations. It's reflexive.

It's not STYLE VERSUS STYLE, nor is it THE PERSON, NOT THE STYLE.

It IS the person and their tool kit.
If a person is a well conditioned athlete, has all of the physical attributes that make a good fighter, has good mental acuity, can adapt to a situation, and most of all- is extremely aggressive...they've got the deck stacked in their favor. SKILL will not always save your ass. Sometimes it comes down to who's the more malicious, underhanded, and quickest off the gun.

The easiest way to win a fight is to hit first and continue to hit without giving somebody breathing room. Even someone bigger. It's that simple...get there first, don't let up. Skill helps. But some people get caught up in the whole analytical track- the game plan goes away when you get hit, just like the old maxim says.

I think it's truly amazing that you can't see the forest for the trees. You've said almost exactly the same thing several of us have said and you can't even see it through your ego. Do you even read what you post? Your ass is showing!

Its great that you apologized, but that doesn't give you a free pass to be a hypocrite.

[lucidmist]

hahaha, that coming from a guy who goes around using the "f" word freely on people, calling people names like "dope" and "moron" and much worse? then trying to kick up trouble with me over my ONE harmless post. hypocrite? speak for yourself. it's just ONE post. get over it. it's sad that all you do is focus on all the minor things i said, to spend all that time focusing on my words and analyze them. your life must be pitiful, to have nothing else more important than me that you have to keep hanging on to me and my that ONE post. wow man. you ARE sad.

[jubaji]

You must agree with me if its bothering you so much.


Oh, btw...

Seems like you're getting the hang of it just fine. Time to step off that high horse.

[Garland]

Your ass is showing!

you know you like it.
isn't it mesmerizing?

[lucidmist]

hahaha! juvenile! that should be your new nick. thanks for the entertainment and the attention, no-lifer. and wow, one single post of mine got your long-term high and kind attention, you bothered to come back and forth to keep harping and brooding over it. hope you find something better to do, but if you don't, it's fine, just keep revolving over my words cos we know you don't have anything else more real than that LOL

[lucidmist]

wow. such intelligent remarks. such an accomplished person who knows everything except to read properly. please. be your juvenile self or we won't recognize it's you. yes yes, that's what a forum is for. swearing, cussing, etc etc. glad we have you to show what class and knowledge is truly about!

[jubaji]

There ya go, now you can stop even trying to pretend you are anything but a D-bag.

Um...yeah, I'm certainly not a very intelligent person...that's why I have to resort to sarcasm and bemoaning everyone else's behavior instead of defending my own diatribes, rants, and thinly constructed arguements.

I have been using the language I use for a long time on this forum. We have a tendency to do a great deal of linguistic horseplay, and bust each other's balls...you've been here for a month, and already you are the one telling everyone else that they are out of line?

Consider your position. If you are an educated person, you will climb on down from that faux ivory tower and tell me, directly, why my position is wrong and yours is right, before you come stumbling and slip from it.

And who is this "we" you refer to? Redrum, polecat, and yourself?
Why woud I value your opinions? So far you have contributed NOTHING except for a great deal of inane and round-about B.S. and bitching.

If you want to come to a forum to learn, ask questions. If you're coming to this forum with another intent- to inflate your own ego by spewing garbage- expect somebody to say something to put you in check. That's all I did.
If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen, certainly don't presuppose yourself to be the head chef.

I am taking this opportunity to lay down my arms and ask you directly-
WHY do YOU think I chose your post to respond to? What about it could have offended me?

Perhaps then, we can come to an antithesis, and understand each other's positions a little bit better. I want you to know where I am coming from...perhaps you'd like to clue me in as well.

Maybe this dialectic approach would suit you better than my usual coarse koine and casual style.

At this point, I'm trying...I'm being cool...let's see if you can do the same, or just respond with some lame personal attack.

[jubaji]

This is disgusting. I've never read anything so offensive.
