“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Supreme Dark Lord vs Bullshido

Our beloved and dreaded Supreme Dark Lord (PBUH) Voxemort the Malevolent recently turned his baleful gaze upon a certain Joe Rogan, and the results were… well, pretty damned interesting: As is the norm with His Voxness’s Darkstreams, this one is an hour...

Twink-Fu: The Legend Continues

About 15 months ago I wrote up what I thought was a pretty funny article riffing off of a video made by Elgin “Trap Lord” Mones, mocking a “grassroots fitness” club called Project Haymaker. The video clip that the Trap Lord roasted consisted of...

Precision beats power

… and timing beats speed as Conor “The Notorious” MacGregor would say. Here is the proof: Indeed, the Notorious One himself features in that compilation, showing everyone else how timing is done. Hell, the compilation ideally should have contained...

The Dominator mindset

Dominick Cruz was the UFC’s bantamweight-division championship – twice over. When he first entered the fight game, he was only around 20 years old. He amassed an amazing 9-0 record in his first fighting organisation, “Rage in the Cage”, before...

Bullshido by any other name…

… still smells just as foul: I came across that Marie Claire “self-defence” video for wimmenz sometime last year, I think. One of the black belt instructors at my school saw that in his Instagram feed and showed it to a gang of us while we were...

Punch soyboys in the face

Anybody want to guess what happens when four soyboys decide to try the manly art of beating the ever-loving shit out of other people? Well… this: Oh dear. To me the most telling moment in that entire episode comes from this one little GIF: As I recall, it was an...

Domain Query: The Brotherhood

Commenter Zarathustra had some germane thoughts to add to a recent post that I wrote about the benefits of learning how to beat other people to a bloody pulp with your bare hands: Because in the beginning stages, when one gets his first licks to the head, liver, etc.,...

When you actually believe your own bullshido

As I have written before, I am a big fan of the film Bloodsport. As far as cheesy 80s action movies go, you cannot really get much better than this film, such is its sheer epic silliness. Of course, from the perspective of an actual martial arts practitioner, there is...

“How the hell did he do that?!?”

There are many. many martial arts styles out there. Some are more effective and brutal than others. Of the striking arts, I have particular and profound respect for tae kwon do (done properly), kyokushin karate, muay thai and its ancient ancestor muay boran,...

Let the bitches fight

The former champion of the UFC’s middleweight division has some sensible words of advice to offer to any would-be white knights out there: “When we got off the bus, that girl, Magana, was right in front of me. As I come off the bus, all I see is Cyborg run...
