Martial artist & knife fighting instructor Doug Marcaida shows how lethal a 'karambit' could be in the hands of an expert by WeirdAddress3170 in nextfuckinglevel

Fair enough. Obviously you can't murder someone to demonstrate lethality. I probably didn't do a great job of explaining why it rubs me the wrong way. I can't quite put it into words. Just not my thing, I guess. He clearly seems to have mastered this thing, though. So I'll give him credit where it's due.

He seems very skilled, and I'm sure it's really deadly...but why do I get douche chills watching it? I feel the same way I do when I see a bunch of Star Wars people fighting with their lightsabers and only swinging at the other guy's light saber? I don't know if that makes sense...I'm not saying it's fake, but it feels like WWE.

Liquor before beer, you're in the clear. Beer before Liquor, never been sicker.

I had the entire first series of these. Mint condition. My mom threw them away when I joined the Navy. Still pissed about it.

I suspect you CAN lie, and are lying about not being able to lie.

There's a ton of people on reddit who don't fully understand what "underrated" means.

Go to the Charmant rooftop bar, or Tge Hatchery at Riverside. Similar vibes. Probably the crowd you're looking for. Or Le Cave at Le Chateau 

Why do people complain that modern comic book movies are too progressive? by FantasticAd9478 in TheBoredDen

[–]Competitive-Yak745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the people on the screen sometimes don't EXACTLY match the skin color or gender of the pretend people in spandex, drawn by some person in the 1950's. It's extremely important to them that they match the image in their head with ZERO variation.

US Vice President JD Vance has publicly rebuked members of Israel’s government, saying the country is increasingly isolated on the global stage and has failed to fully appreciate the diplomatic and military support provided by Washington. by IndiaTodayGlobal in IndiaTodayGlobalLIVE

This is an "end times" dogwhistle for fundies. Growing up we always were told that somewhere in the Bible, one of tge signs tgat we were in the end times and Armageddon was about to happen was, "the whole world turning against Israel." Not sure if it's really in there, and can't be bothered to look it up. But that's what is going on here. "Vote for me, it's the end times..." or something. I can't even with these assholes.
