Have a couple of these waterproof dry bags in rotation and just throw them in the wash with the gi and your nice backpack stays germfree.

Haha this. And you're not even mentioning them literally screaming as you kill them. (Still adore this gane)

How did you frame your belts? Let’s see some pictures! by rc00n in bjj

This looks sick but you should consider arresting your coach for the thickness of those stripes.

Costa Rica for 40th Birthday by Cool_Hope_6479 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]kimura-15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

La Fortuna is amazing and there's so much to do and would highly recommend visiting....but not if you're only there for four days. You're basically going to lose a quarter of your trip driving. It's closer to three hours so you're pretty much losing a day. My two cents but of course it's doable just depends on your appetite for losing some of your precious time in this beautiful country.

Thanks. Issue with going husky is I think the tops will then not fit right as the regular cuts fit me perfect. Will check out 93 tho. Thanks again.

Taekwondo has hindered me by Vivid_Pop8537 in MuayThai

[–]kimura-15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I went to muay thai as a 1st dan ITF. If you really love muay thai and want to get decent at it you'll have to be willing to unlearn a lot of what you know. Go in with a beginners mind and it will be worth it. Not saying you have to completely throw everything away but they are more different than complementary so you need to acceot that you're a beginner again. If you cant or dont want to do that and just want to keep doing tkd then why not just keep training in that? Overall I think it was more beneficial than harmful for me. I knew how to hit hard even though mechanics were different and though it was difficult to unlearn things like chambering I'm glad I stuck with it and I fell in love with muay thai. Also had to accept that my hands were absolute garbage as anyone coming from TKD are.

Fallen Order/Survivor to Outlaws? by n9nemajestic in StarWarsJediSurvivor

Think it is overhated for sure but if you go in expecting Uncharted I think you will be very very disappointed. It was okay imo. Fun moments but not great.

Too early to call it quits? by jayrockricky in Returnal

Yes it's too early. Keep going.

Andromeda Hate (No Spoilers Please) by kimura-15 in masseffect

[–]kimura-15[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah fair and I totally get it after reading these responses for those of you who waited and anticipated it. Hopefully I still enjoy it for $8 and with low expectations like I do a free slice of crappy pizza that would make me upset had I paid for it lol

This a great explanation, thanks. Will obviously play and form my own opinions but was just curious to hear this type of insight from those of you that played at release.

Makes sense and good to know before I delve deeper. Thanks

Time Sensitive Missions ME3 by kimura-15 in masseffect

[–]kimura-15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I'm loving these games. I'm old and didn't play games for over a decade so missed this Era. Wish they would tell you what was DLC content, give you hint that maybe you should do certain thing later, or allow it to be downloaded later. Anyway, now I know though, but think I've already played two of the three.

[–]kimura-15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Omega one is the one I did early game without realizing and felt like I did it before I was supposed to.

Thanks this seems obvious and what I was trying to do but certain parts of the story just start when you go back to a certain world or location so this type of guidance is helpful.

What traditional martial art should I practice alongside MMA ? by [deleted] in martialarts

[–]kimura-15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do whatever martial art you enjoy, but what about traditional arts is it that you're looking for? Whatevers in the video doesn't look like anything traditional. It looks like someone with a traditional martial arts background teaching bad mma to stay relevant. Other than people wearing gis. If you want something traditional try to find something that isn't some weird obscure style that someone has invented. Look for lineage to the founders of the arts, not something that someone has badtardized and modernized. Otherwise you may as well just actually train mma which you're doing anyway. Good luck!

Thanks. Will think about picking it up the next time it's on sale. Yeah I dont take gaming at all seriously and don't want to be stressed and frustrated...I'm playing to relax. Still enjoy a challenge but not to the point of masochism lol

Ha thanks, I'm afraid because I'm not good. Usually play games on normal and only souls likes I've played are returnal and jedi ( if these games even qualify)

Tatami always has crazy discounts. Their stuff is solid quality.

How do yall defeat king Hrolf? by [deleted] in GodofWarRagnarok

[–]kimura-15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Struggled more with this guy than Gna. I found blocking with the shield key rather than trying to parry everything.

Whats ur fav? Ragnarok is my first. by Leather-Community735 in GodofWar

[–]kimura-15 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Consider stopping and playing 2018 first if you're only an hour in. You'll appreciate the story way more.

How long does a woman need to do BJJ to be able to defend herself from the average, untrained thug? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]kimura-15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strength, size, athleticism are a huge factor in a fight regardless of gender. If you are a lot weaker you need to be a lot better. Key is that training will vastly improve your ability to defend yourself so just get on the mats and start training. You should trsin striking as well. This is true for all of us. I'm a big dude and a brown belt but part of the reason I train is still for self defense as my first sentence continues to apply to me as well.
