You are still one of my favorite Rant posters so post more.



Slight thread derail, but did not want to have this discussion continued in the Coastie thread, what are your musical tastes? Hanging out with old hippie dudes is cool,but are you into old hippie dude music?

Couple of real Sherlocks we got here. Same favorite team, same initials, same black/white themed avi.

Straws -- anyone that's willing to read these posts should be able to see you're wrong, even if they know nothing about this topic.

For your own knowledge, in most BJJ gyms the 'sport' aspect is not the sole emphasis. All programs that I've seen integrate real life scenarios into BJJ and teach a full scope approach to self defense -- and of course fighters interested in becoming well rounded practice other disciplines aside from BJJ.

You seem to not grasp the concept that BJJ is a skill within the skill of grappling. Isolating the art for the purpose of mastering it has value.

I'm sure now that it is football season I'll be picking it up a bit more.

In terms of music, I like a lot of hippie music, phish is my favorite and while I enjoy a lot of the other bands in the current'jam scene I don't follow / love them as much as I do phish although I really like Gov't Mule and most anything Warren Haynes does.

For the old hippie music, I do like grateful dead but mainly because they have phenomenal songwriting - I just prefer my music to have a little more teeth (see JRAD for my favorite rendition of Dead songs and one of my favorite bands playing right now). Hendrix, Zeppelin, ABB, The Band, Beatles etc. are all some of my favorites. I like old progressive stuff a lot too like Pink Floyd, Talking Heads and Velvet Underground.

Pretty much if it isn't that horrible country stuff (I like Jason Isbell and some of that kind of stuff, but not super in to it) or horrible hip hop / rap i can dig it. Don't listen to a lot of rap but there are some artists that i definitely respect.

Further evidence that you have real and legitimate comprehension (among other) issues.

Your issue is with slamming in BJJ sport competitions.

I've graciously explained to you why isolating the gentle and skilled art of BJJ for the sake of competition has value, and explained that a BJJ practice doesn't solely focus on the sport aspect.

You got that mind illness.

In conclusion, you should read someone's posts before going off on your little fairy armchair psychologist rants. Even the last thing you said, I deliberately put ''While remaining loyal to the style''.

Poor kid.


I think he's pretty clearly stated that "being loyal to the style" isn't some force field out of of the implications you're making.

You've been a member since September 2016, no one mentioned the avatar being black and white. So it's obvious you're an alter of someone.

Has he actually defended slams other than saying it's illegal and nuanced?

If he has, I'd love to see it. I still fail to see the difference between being slammed and being spiked by an uchi mata.

And the deal is sealed. You dumb. (Honestly, if you couldn't understand what I was saying with that I truly feel for you. Life must be extra tough).

The defense rests.

Jesus you're autistic.

When I said "We've got a couple of Sherlocks here. Same favorite team, same initials, and same black and white avi" -- did you not understand that was an admission?

I'd imagine most 2nd graders would have figured that out. I'd bet even Cheese Grits could put that one together.

You were shown up in this thread, and it wasn't even close, that has to be upsetting.

On top of that you were just made a fool over comprehension issues.

Double slam.

Supreme Sleep, out.

Yikes.

You're really hurting over there.

Sending you good thoughts.

We create our reality. I hope you can create a positive one for yourself.

Is this your 5th or 6th alter? Or do you have even more multiple personalities that we are yet unaware of?

So you admit you are an alter and folks wonder why Mizzou gets such a bad rap for having so many alters. If anybody needs an education greater than 2nd grade, perhaps a look in the mirror would do the trick.

Just a suggestion.

As for me, after all these years I still have the same account and ZERO alters. I must be at least smarter than you.

I haven't posted anywhere on this site in 12 months.

I was banned for a poli board response thread. It happens.

You're a weird cat. You were making a fuss out of this thread being moved to the MSB because it's not technically an 'off-topic' topic. That's real odd.

I don't have any interest in interacting with you here.

But you didn't keep the gender you were born with.

Let's call it even.
