I didn't see "Resident Evil"...that good, huh?
I enjoyed "The Ring"...had grown men running out of the theater toward the end...their disruption actually added to the whole experience...I was crying watching them!
well, you got me... the lord of the rings trillogy was the best, but will be more enjoyed at home.
if ya get a chance, get resident evil... not dissapointing!
I really Dug Resident Evil. But I think it may have had something to do with my lusting after Milla... I know she's kinda scrawny, but she does things to me...
As for the young guys, I agree with Thrasher, I have yet to find a kid under about 22-23 that would seriously stand his ground. Even with his pack of little wannabee hardcore thugs. (Suburban Thugs)... Yeah, watch out... I have found that the right body language and the right look in your eyes will pretty much clear up about 90% of the attitude and BS. The other 10%, just ake certain no one is looking and just apply the mighty SMACK, SMACK em' like you mean it, leave that trail of finger prints.... It serves as a useful reminder... AND It's proof that you struck with an open hand.
I have also found that they are not too hard to instigate to violence, it's pretty easy to get the High school guy riled up enough that he takes the first swing... After that, it's pretty much open season...
Then Again, Waving the Gun around while Quoting the Bible seems to work as well....
The thing about old guys versus young guys I think can be summed up pretty simple.. And I have this knowledge from my own personal experiences as a 41 year old man, former marine and student martial arts instructor.
Young guys have lots of testosterone which lots of time they don't know how to control, then combine that with what all of us guys have when we are young, and that is the SUPERMAN complex, meaning we are indestructible nothing can happen to us and death is the farthest thing from our minds.
So when the young guy is puffing out his chest he is thinking the worst thing that is going to happen is he might hurt his knuckles hitting someone.
Now, pit that up against an old fart like me. I have seen death, I have seen a guy break his hand after he hit someone in the face, I have known of people that were fighting and stumbled backwards and hit there head on a curb and died right then and there just as sure as if someone put a gun to their head.
If I get in a fight with someone, all my years of training to fight and seeing $hit has taught me one thing, even if the guy you are fighting isn’t TRYING to kill you, he might accidentally kill you so guess what?
I always do whatever I can to take the high road, to avoid conflict, I don’t fight, I don’t want to fight, I will do pretty much whatever it takes to get out of it, because if I do get in a fight, I am giving it 200% and my goal is not to break your jaw, or break your leg, my goal is to illuminate the perceived threat as fast as I can. No anger, no vengeance.. Someone trying to attack me is a threat and as fart as I am concerned they are trying to kill me. I am not going to hold anything back.. and I will pretty much try to kill the person. If the person does not die then they would be lucky.
I am not trying to sound like a bad ass, because I am not.. I think I am one of the nicest people I know.. and I don’t go around being a jerk or a bully and I take a lot of poop from people. But I think what I just described is the general attitude of most males as they get older, they realize fighting is not a game, it is serious and as such, most older males are too old and tired to screw around, we will take a pool stick, trash can, whatever it takes.
$hit, my martial arts instructor is a 7th degree black belt, has been fighting and training for over 30 years, he is fricken deadly, I have seen him do $hit that not only blows my mind but some times is just down right freaky..There are very few people on this planet that could kick his arse, he has trained with some of your best martial artists
Guess what? He has a concealed weapons permit, he carry's a fricken gun everywhere he goes. His attitude is if you mess with him he is just going to put a cap in you. He is not going to even exert any energy, squeexe the trigger, your done.
Again, he is a guy who is 42 years old, tired of messing with people.
The young guys… they have not been alive to be really truly honestly tired of peoples $hit like us older guys are LOL..
So, that long drown out explanation is why I agree with Rev, I have not met too many young guys that would have the heart to be able to stand their ground with me. Or any other older man.
And this is not meant to be disrespectful to any of you young guys out there. And if there are anyone that has taken offense, I apologize, it was not intended to rile any of you up. Just an old tired warn out guy ranting
