re: Did you take martial arts lessons at any point in your life, and which one(s)?

They did. They did some tests and observations and determined that I suffered from being a perfectly normal 12 year old boy in 1977. We got in fights all the time. We also had bb wars, had horrendous bicycle crashes, hunted shite out of season with .22 rifles and airguns...all manner of shite that seems strange today. We would play king of the mountain and tackle the man with the ball and someone would be fighting every 15 minutes or so...and we would do it hours everyday.

To quote the great Judge Judy, "Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining."

We were still doing all that shite in the 80's, and like most boys, I got into my fair share of fist fights. A handful a year was normal for most boys. If you were getting into one or two fistfights multiple days a week for years, you were an outlier and had a serious psychological problem.

I mean, let's do the math here and I'll be charitable and go with the lowest possible numbers.

I was taking taekwondo and boxing golden gloves at the same time between 10 and 14 and also getting in a fight or two most days of the week

So at a minimum you fought 4 days a week, and fought twice a day on at least one of those: 5x52=260 fights a year over 5 years=1300.

You got into [bottom estimate] 1300 fistfights in a 5 year period and you're going with "1977 was a different time"? lol

But if there's one thing I've learned from your OWEO on adderall posting, it's that you're usually full of shite so I'll chock this up to being another instance of that.
