I got in a fight today. Now, seeing as this is my senior year, and I haven't had a decent fight in a while, I was despairing of ever having the opportunity to whoop some arse. Luckily, in class today one of my friends apparently got pissed at me, and threatened to beat my ass. I, of course, just warned him not to make threats. Now, to be fair to my buddy, I have about 25 lbs on him, and we are the same height (5'11"). So offhand I would appear stronger. Add to that the fact that I take weightlifting, and I powerclean 203 lbs and benchpress 190 lbs, and it genuinely seems that my friend must have been out of his mind. However, he called me out, and because I am a man, I could not back down. Like any hard-headed SOB I was hooked into the dispute. So we have everyone go to the back of the community baseball field after school, and I get out and wait for my pal to get there. He finally arrives, and we go at it. Now, unfortunately for him it was a fairly one-sided fight. Sadly, he was unaware that I wrestle and take boxing lessons. However, he took the beating like a man, and of course, being guys, five minutes after he got up off the ground for the 4th time, we were cool again.


I suppose this brings me to my point, which is that I love the way we guys can settle our differences quickly, violently, and still have no hard feelings afterward.

Not to mention that fighting is just plain fun.
So my advice is for everyone to get into a fight this week, and just have fun. Granted, I bruised both hands all to hell, but it was so worth it.

damn my thread sucks. no one has even looked at it.

The title is wrong- people are probably expecting it to be a confession to excessive masturbation.

You can only bench 190? Weak.

That was honestly my first thought as well. :p


So...do you know Tyler Durden?

I will admit the title made me curious. I wanted to know what kind of masturbation technique involved hurting your hands.

Then I saw it was a about a fist fight. They're only fun if you win them, unlike mastrubation. :(

That was honestly my first thought as well. :p

Such a badass movie. We started a fight club here, incidentally, but it got ended because too many people wound up with bloody noses etc. Now we just do boxing, which is so much better...

But anyways, yes, I know Tyler Durden. And that song "Where is My Mind" by the Pixies, from the ending credits is one of my favorites.

Only because nobody else is that interested in your testosterone-brained subhuman boasting, "man". :)

Well, true. But then again, as long as you can be a man about losing, people will still respect you.

And benching 190 is not weak... Considering I only weigh 145.

WEAK!

But I do have 100 pounds on you. Both in weight and benchpress. I'm just giving you shit.

Yea, I hope you whoop me on lifting. I just don't have any body fat left to convert :(. Taking weightgainers is helping a lil bit though.

Ah. I've got plenty of body fat to convert. My bench used to be up in the 330 range when I was still playing football in high school.

but you did...

No, but simply that, being a compassionate, i.e., human, being I was interested in your well-being. Oh poor you! Hurt his hands beating on a "friend" to prove his "manhood". :rolleyes:

Well, true. But then again, as long as you can be a man about losing, people will still respect you.

145 ...?

Whoah dude, you're too small to be fighting. You could get hurt.

Actually, its kinda funny. You see, I had to start fighting because I was small. Not to mention, the best fighters are the quick ones, not the lumbering guys with the most muscle. You gotta hit before you can do any damage. Besides which, my pops weighs 160, and believe me, you wouldn't wanna fight him. Size really doesn't mean that much. It's all about speed.

That's true. I've got about 70 pounds on my father, and I'm still scared to fight him. Something about his three black-belts....

Well that's true if the little guy is good, and the big one is just a lazy fat pig.

They played the Game of Death (unfinished bruce lee movie) the other week on cable. The bit where he fights kareem abdul jabbar is pretty funny. Well I laughed at least, at one point I thought he was going to bite kareems kneecaps.
