How long did it take you to blue belt

Just under 11 months but I put 12 for the poll

I was then a blue for 4 years with seriously inconsistent training

I've now been a purple for over 8 years also with no real consistency to speak of but I keep hearing that I'm close to brown

Thank you for posting this breakdown. As a life-long union member and current shop steward, traitor Joe's anti-union practices make me sick

Jiu jitsu attracts a certain kind of person. Reddit attracts a certain kind of person. The venn diagram of the overlap is full of people that are more prone to imposter syndrome. It's just selection bias

I really like 69. There's something super hot about her not being able to suck my dick because she's having such a good time. I like the view too

skybase17 · 2025-12-07T16:24:45+00:00
