The last time I got into a sword fight was on a film set in July. ⚔️🎬✨
What about you?

I have to use Kali Sticks every week to defend myself. Of course that's also because if I don't, my sparring partner will whack me with his sticks. Outside of class, I've never had to fight anyone using Kali sticks or a bo staff.
Hehee😅
Happened three times this week— then I woke up
Keep on young lady you are fun, amazing and inspiring ❤
in response to the metaphorical fighter: As Doc Holiday Put it….I got two guns, one for each of ya! hehe
I scared an aggressive dog away with my walking stick once, but I wasn't spinning it at the time. It's like the old days, when fencing masters and dancing masters were often the same person – the skills are complementary, but they're not going to perform a minuet during a duel.
I did martial arts for about 15 years. My sensei told me that one time, he was backed in a dark alley by 2 guys. He found a lead pipe long enough to use it as a staff. He started to spine it around. The 2 guys paused for a moment and decided to walk away. So my sensei always said that sometimes, spinning a staff around can be enough to scare people off.
Lol! Great, great descriptive rationale!
Are you kidding? It’s Thanksgiving. You try getting my mom to pass the potatoes without a quarterstaff, I dare you.
It's simply dumb. There are plenty of 'learn to fight' with this or that weapon videos online. And not every tool has to serve in its exact purpose all the time. If you were juggling hammers, nobody would try to ask how the skill can be used for effectively driving nails.
People want to set their personalized goalposts like that to take things away from you. Or they 'teach.' Just randomly, I don't mean like you. Had a guy do that to me the other day. Comes up to me out super of the blue and starts showing me how to strike with power with the kalis I made, and that's honestly my last priority rn.
And I don't feel I'm very good at faking interest once someone immediately makes themselves the most forgettable person in the world like that, lol.
"o wow so cool have a nice day sir thank you so much am appreciate" 🤥
Im always looking for sticks to spin just in case someone randomly attacks me. That’s why forests are great places to spend time. So many spinny sticks.
It’s like Highlander.
Does just once count?
