Antonio is an akido master and not any taller than I am, so he was always literally looking up to the WS. He inadvertently taught me that akido is for faggots by challenging me to lock a particular joint (his elbow) in the stupidest possible way (with an overhand forearm grip.)

...

Before this encounter I had never thought about how unrealistic the ritual seme/uke (and they do use those terms) "sparring" is that happens in akido. I realized all at once that it was a dumb waste of time that makes you stupid and gay.

Ugh, that annoys me so much that you eventually came around to saying Aikido sucks! I was trying to convince you of that in so many deleted posts, even way back on OMM! One time the debate was on how the "sparring" partner throws the dumbest punches anyone has even seen, and I was all "good luck catching a real punch" and you were all "Well, could you catch a baseball? How about a baseball thrown at you from 3 feet away? It's not impossible." Look at how that stuck with me nine years later! I'm personally insulted I couldn't convince you but you were convinced when you manhandled a dude half your size. Anyway, I'll focus on the relief I feel that we're all on the same page now. Plus I've got new beefs with you:

Which leads ultimately back to the Big Martial Arts Secret: it's supposed to be sport for the wealthy who will only use it against each other in Devil May Cry-style dramatic battles. They hated low, dirty, nasty shit like muay thai and were perpetually trying to elevate domestic low dirty shit like boxing into some kind of rarified art. MMA blew up that whole scene; not only did the rich warrior caste have to mix it up with all kinds of low nasty shit, they also had to mix it up with people who didn't even bother declaring a style or a school.

Traditional martial arts is for the wealthy. Worst theory ever. Traditional martial arts is and always has been for the nerdy as soon as guns were invented, and even more so once the treadmill was invented. Your MMA theory also sucks because people do "declare" styles and schools. They say their style is Jiu Jitsu in which they have a BLACK BELT, or their school is Arizona State University where they WRESTLED (hey, where does wrestling come from, BTW?). And then they have great success in MMA.
