NOTES ON THE PAGE (and rant as well)

You dont need to be a mcdojo white belt to figure out that the fighting stance of Cedrick is waaaayyyy awkward. :)

Speaking of mcdojos, mcdojos are supposedly "martial arts schools" that either charge unreasonable high prices and/or deliver crappy training while claiming to make you into a total badass by the time you get your blackbelt… even though you never sparred… even though you never got punched in the face.

In a good martial art school, you will ALWAYS come home dead tired and/or beaten up… and during the training, be finding yourself often in a position where you need to push your limits. And reputable martial art schools dont charge unreasonable prices and "belt tests" either (unless for blackbelt of course). Reputable MA schools usually charge enough only to give the operators a slight profit and to cover maintenance expenses of the gym.

Anyway, mcdojos become mcdojos because they need to make money. Face it. Who in his/her right mind would wanna pay for something that gets them hurt in the process? Nobody except BDSM people or SERIOUS martial artists (or those who SERIOUSLY wanna learn how to fight and defend themselves) would pay for that shit. Martial Arts is about COMBAT. Its about ASS KICKING. Not about a bunch of kids feeling like theyre badass saying KYAAAAIIIIAAAAAA!!!!!!

So there. Martial artists are crazy people in a way. In the dojo where I used to go, I've seen some guys who seemingly looove the element of pain. I punched a guy in the face (with gloves of course…) and his nose bled… the guy was smiling as if he's enjoyin that shit. And another guy almost got his neck broken with a neck crank… He screamed out loud like a dying man… and when it was released after he tapped out, the dude was just laughin like he's a fuckin mental case or somethin.

And remember… NO amount of martial arts training is gonna turn you into a a one man army who can beatup 30 thugs (all in one room charging you at the same time) all by yourself.
