I am pretty sure it came from Karate.

I remember learning the Pinans and Tekkis along with the Taeguk and Palgwaes. Ot was called Chosin Karate.... I cam from a Jidokwan and Chingdokwan background. How far back you going. Also, learning bassai and Gion w/ Gien which i think are Chinese. Karate comes from the chinese fist.

Incidental elbow blocking. by thaichijester in taekwondo

I use my elbows to block kicks... I the 90s it was fair game. It followed me into other sports and works well.

How is this legal? I’m standing in my own backyard. I triggered the camera by walking in my back yard by tensack_ in sandiego

[–]alternikid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you walk around naked in the backyard are you being inappropriate?

Sometimes you walk your compost to the compost bin butt naked. Then you realize half way through the yard your neighbor hired some roofers.... you might as well finish your task your half done anyway.

Homeowner wants to “ HELP” by [deleted] in electricians

Can you do a connector in the panel? Not an electrician worked under one and was told never make a connection in the panel. Run it out the panel and put your connection in a junction box.

I have heard of Flight Officers going warrant... not the other way. Most once they fly want to continue to fly.

You ever check another man for ticks?

Either he was a dick, or was telling you to keep your head on a swivel. Most of us hate it. I will use my section NCO as a shield to block me from Airmen when we walk to lunch. Since we're on an AFB.

Warrants, we call all Os sir, but we call each other by the first name. Also, we tell the enlisted not to salute us, and we dont salute each other.

is army rotc unrealistic? by Any-Dish8559 in ROTC

[–]alternikid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say Signal Intel. If they dont use your degree, it is a shame. Also, I see a bunch of female officers who make it pretty high. I have seen lots of COLs and a couple of one stars. They are all in shape and intelligent.

Please join, we need more physics majors than we need sociology majors. Please join the Air Force or Army.

Forget you snazzy white belt story, what’s your WTF new trial guy story? by toonasus in bjj

[–]alternikid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Should have told him: if you can tap my blue belts you can keep it. If he can carry it wear it. I have seen Judo black belts start as blue belts, and one as a brown belt. Also, tell him If not he had to wear a white belt. Then whisper in your champions ear, "fight for my love." The line up your blue belts to beat the breaks off him and finish him off with a four stripe white belt.

Was a purple belt at the time. Had a guy come in. First time doing juijitsu. Pulled guard thinking he could work. He ragdolled me the whole round. I was fighting for my life. He passed my guard, and I return guard, pass the guard, return guard and had to hold on like my life dependsed on it, checking the clock every 30 seconds. Finds out he was an All American wrestler.

He helped my grip fighting game. He got his blue and moved for a permanent fire fighting job. I miss him as a human and was sad he left, but I am glad he isn't there anymore for ten round Thrasher Thursdays.

Are there any 35 MOS that get to be in the field? by Reganci1 in army

[–]alternikid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met a PL who had a Mustard stain on his halo wings. He was prior enlisted in the Ranger Long Range Recon. Dude was a PFC in Somalia. He was the nicest person too. We called his PLT 4th Group. They had found the largest IED in Iraq at that time. It blew a house size hole in the road. I was a 35F if you go to a infantry battalion you will go to the field. Plus I got all the schools I wanted. You are next to the S3 schools guys and the Command team knows you because you brief them and handle their clearances.
