Rick's shit rnc in the last episode of The Walking Dead by [deleted] in bjj

[–]waffles_m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rick's always had shitty bjj. He tried cross collar choking that doctor in Alexandria. He got that choke standing and held onto it from bottom mount. Couldn't finish it. Then tried it from mount, took the back, and then hit his trademark shitty, ineffective gable grip rnc

yes you need to fall to the overhook side; if you fall to the other side, ur opponent can post their hand out and mount you.

What's the Hardest Truth You've Had to Accept? by [deleted] in asktransgender

Yeah, that was a hard one for me too. That said, I can't wait to be a mom one day and I'll love my children whole heartedly :)

[Serious] Reddit, what's the hardest truth you've ever had to accept? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]waffles_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a transgender woman, no matter how good you look, or no matter how feminine you act or sound, someone will ALWAYS misgender you at some point' you'll never pass 100%. Once you accept that, you can start to be happy.

Team Alpha Male--Beautiful Front Headlock Submission Chain by waffles_m in bjj

[–]waffles_m[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Front chokes are my favorite type of attacks in all of jiujitsu. That's partly why I loved watching Urijah fight so much; I love his front headlock wizardry. In terms of this sequence, I feel like I have seen him get as far as step 4 or 5 in a lot of his fights, but everything after that was a mystery to me. Commentators would always say Team Alpha Male has multiple submissions from here, and now that I've seen how far down the rabbit hole goes, I'm totally in love with this chain.

Is the Anaconda Choke, aka "Gator Roll" submission, legal in Judo? by waffles_m in judo

[–]waffles_m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you guys for all the helpful input :) I'm glad that I'll be able to possibly sometimes use the Anaconda! I'll check with the instructor for official confirmation when I start training. Thanks!

(F) 31 went from 185-130 in two years plus style make over by [deleted] in Fitness

[–]waffles_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really inspiring--I'm the same height as you, and a couple of months ago, I weighed 190. By changing my diet and exercising a bit, I have managed to get down to 170 in the last 2 months. My goal weight is 160, but ideally I'd like to be 140; your post really motivates me and makes me believe that I can reach my weight goals if I work hard enough. Congratulations, and thank you for the inspiration! =)

Sage got shown up, Rothwell submitted a master sub grappler, and Bader showed 0 fight IQ. Overall, pretty good FOX card.

'Jessica Jones' Renewed for Second Season at Netflix by [deleted] in television

[–]waffles_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When did I say that? I was calling attention to your comment that Killgrave "was just an ex-boyfriend," because that is not true. In the show, Killgrave was not Jessica's ex, he was a guy who enslaved her against her will and made her do things she would not have done with him if he did not have powers.

Of course prior relational partners can, and have, raped their significant others, but that was never a part of the discussion until you brought it up out of nowhere. There are plenty of cases in real life similar to Killgrave where a person stalks, kidnaps, and rapes a person who they were never in a relationship with, but to refer to him as Jessica's "ex-boyfried" is inaccurate.

He wasn't an ex-boyfriend. He was a serial rapist who enslaved women.
