Well the first one is good. Don't think it qualifies as heroic bloodshed though.

Do you like any supposed 'kids' movies?

Oh, come on! Curious George was adorable! <.<

Do you like any comedies?

I like certain Jackie Chan movies, like Robin B Hood, Rush Hour, etc, if you count them as comedies.

Which, I maintain, they are.

Oh yeah, Rush Hour is definitely a comedy. Haven't seen the other yet, but am mildly interested.

Prefer baths or showers?

I run the water, say I took a shower, and apply coverscent.

ohhhhh

That's kinda like what I used to do with brushing my teeth. Without the coverscent.

Favorite type of martial arts?

I like Janna, the art of the hashshashin, but that's not taught anymore.

So, Krav Maga or Escrima.

Hmm, never heard of the latter. What's it based around?

Also, a friend of mine was showing me some pretty sick stuff with aikkido, but I imagine it sounds like kid's stuff compared to the others, haha.

It's a Filipino weapons based martial art.

Basically, screw all that fancy movement, I'ma bash your friggin skull in.

Very Filipino.

Hahahaha.

Why is it so appealing then, if there's no skill involved in movement, parries, offenses and the like? Anger unleashed?

There's skill involved, but only when it doesn't hamper efficiency.

Watch.

Shows you how much I know. XD

Poor guy in blue shirt. :|

Actually it sounds like some kind of virus.

Do you practice any martial arts yourself? I mean, I'm assuming you do, but I don't want to look stupid. Which I think I've already done.

I do, but not 'formally'.

Mostly RMA, some minor escrima training.

'S cool.

Is working out required for that sort of thing, or do you just have to be in good physical shape?
