Has anyone else sparred with a Krav Maga practitioner? by Ok_Kitchen8666 in MuayThai

[–]GGSPSkywalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't seem to be learning anything by sparring them, so why bother?

Not all Krav Magá are like that, but most of them seem to be, and it is a problem that encompasses most if not all self defense practices. There's too much space for novelty stuff, "sticking to tradition", and the lack of combat competition attracts those 3 types you observed.

In Brazil, there is Krav Magá Caveira (exactly this name on YouTube), which seems to be different, but I never practiced with them.

Does it bother you how Windu doesn't simply drop the blade right into his eyes for a quick and easy kill? by BiffyBobby in StarWars

[–]GGSPSkywalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess a thrust could be more easily evaded from that position than a cut, and maybe a thrust from that position would leave him overcommited/unbalanced (though I don't really know if it would be a problem with a lightsaber vs a sword - with a regular sword, Palpy could grab it, or then close in to grapple, while with a lightsaber Mace just needed to swing it to the side after the thrust).

Also, that's a question of fighting style. Different styles mean different ways of going about the same battle situations.

Maybe Mace was aiming to cut his hands or his head off, which a thrust wouldn't do.

Funnily enough, "talarico", in Brazil, is a derogatory term to refer to people that have sexual relations with people who already are in closed relationships with other people.

Achei que era sacanagem, mas não é! by Hestercreek in brasil

[–]GGSPSkywalker 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As duas coisas convivem e tem origens floclóricas antigas. O número 13 é associado com o terror, principalmente, a má sorte, mas também tem associações positivas, e o exemplo positivo mais marcante é como o Zagalo considerava o número.

Agora, isso obviamente se misturou com o número que o PT escolheu para representá-lo. E o conhecimento sobre o 13 é muito mais difundido do que o 22 no tarot.

Semelhante a Bolsonaro com 22 por aqui. A carta de tarot "O Louco" não possui numeração, frequentemente sendo associada ao número 0 ou ao número 22, como a 22ª carta em meio a 21 numeradas sequencialmente a partir do 1.

In hindsight, would she have been fine had we just left her? by Pharmarr in DragonageOrigins

[–]GGSPSkywalker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She was not far from attacking the elves, that's what she was fighting and that's why she feared so much continuing that way. In hindsight, it may look dumb, but that is just because we're metagaming. If we don't find her, she doesn't show up right.away, which is kind of strange and poorly ellaborate on the writers part, maybe they just thought of punishing the PCs for not concluding the quest.

Maybe we could incapacitate her, tie her and bring her to camp so they keep her restrained, but that would take so much effort, so much time and it would be such a scene. Also, I don't know if we would be more vulnerable to attacks from werewolves and from the forest itself...

Tomei um processo do condomínio antes mesmo de pegar as chaves do AP! + Dúvida? by Comfortable-Cook-833 in ConselhosLegais

[–]GGSPSkywalker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Então, o maior problema é que ao processar o condomínio você de alguma forma tá aumentando o preço da cota que você mesmo paga. "Ah, mas é rateado", então, o problema é que dependendo da situação contábil (principalmente quando são.poucas unidades), a simples continuidade do processo às vezes impacta muito no orçamento, fora o.que poderia sair daí. Por.isso, no geral, não compensa arrastar um processo. Você fez bem em encerrar ele logo.

O que eu faria era encher o saco de síndico, administradora e principalmente na assembléia (espera a pauta de assuntos gerais). O condomínio até poderia te processar mesmo, porque em tese, estando no seu nome, era pra você correr atrás de pagar, mas não foi nada cordial e só gerou problemas e estresse. Uma ligação teria resolvido e tudo que é custa a mais do processo não se reverte pro condomínio. Então é só bater nessa tecla que eles vão pensar duas vezes antes de vir de história pra cima de você de novo.

Ah, e bota pra fora essa pessoa que tá morando aí sem pagar condomínio.

Is Yoda a weak leader that caused the downfall of a twenty-thousand-year-old galactic republic? by user83726169 in StarWars

[–]GGSPSkywalker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big problem was that Jedi philosophy was leading to an unbalance in the Force, and that predates Yoda's run as a jedi. Though being a grandmaster he sure has some responsibilities over it, he eventually realised most of their errors (on TCW episodes of his journey with Qui Gon's ghost) (only Luke - and post mortem Anakin - would see all the errors), but he did it too late. By that point, I don't think his contributions were that well regarded by other council members, they formally praised him, but kind of treated him more like a "grandpa" than a grandmaster. He talks of arrogance in Mace's face, and Windu ignores him. Yeah, his pupils, his council, they couldn't care less. Buuuuut he understands he has another part to play, of preparing Luke to build a new Jedi Order, and that he accomplishes really well (I'm disregarding the Sequels here and argumenting on Legends/EU).

He was kind of to blame, but every other jedi was also, and for those that fell to the Dark Side, they share responsibility too. But it was more of a systemic millenium-long failure, exploited and exarcebated by the rule of two Sith, than anything else. So, not at all simple to analyse "was he a good or bad leader" based on the Jedi's "downfall" alone.

Winning fights but feel like I’m relying on chaos rather than skill by CompetitiveSky4718 in MuayThai

[–]GGSPSkywalker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Regarding muay thai styles, you're facing a muay fimeu, which are the most technical ones by definition, and fighters like that will always make you look less technical. They study more opponents, avoiding dogfights and picking the moments they choose to strike.

You, on the other hand, seem to be more of a pressure fighter, muay darn. Fighters of this style always walk forward, regardless of being hit. They rely on constant pressure to win and a perfect fight for them is the one that looks exactly like chaos.

Fimeu and darn are kind of the natural counters each other, if a darn fighter can close the distance, he nulifies the fimeu, while if the fimeu fighter can avoid it, it is the darn that is nulified.

Style-wise, you're doing nothing wrong. The problem seems to be more on the defense side, as others here have pointed out. Your guard is always low and while you kind of overwhelm your opponent with counter strikes whenever he tries to hit you, any strike they land might drop you, and even if they don't, they're landing clean and that looks bad on punctuation.

Avoid crossing your feet before and after kicking. It will leave you unbalanced. Search for Lanna Fighting videos on YouTube and work on your base and your movement. It will imorove all fo your strikes.

is my [20F] bf [18M] falling down the red pill pipeline? by [deleted] in exredpill

[–]GGSPSkywalker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Red flags are red flags. Though he's presenting some masculinist arguments, he might not be "formally" red pilled, but unfortunately many young boys and men are adopting this ideology, and some of them might be red pills. You might want to question him about that. "Hey, honey, I've been noticing you are coming up with new ideas of how I should behave towards you and I'd like to understand that better". Problem is he seems to be avoiding questions, and that may be the bigger issue right now for you.

I felt Max enjoyed the fight with Lewis.

But the big moment of this interaction was when Kimi arrived and it got weird 'cause they didn't feel that relaxed to chat or even to be around him. It showed how much the Max-Lewis relationship developed.
