Some years ago they were.
ETA: Not since '79, though.
I meant, as in not from St. Louis. Like how I'm still from Jamaica, although I left shortly after the Jazz went north.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So wait, are the movies of skits for dayjob work or your krav work?
If dayjob, what kind of movie are you making about your workplace where hitting is necessary?!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
ita, are you playing the thug in a "don't assault your coworkers" training film?

The skits are dayjob -- the krav stuff is just filming classes.

Well, it was the least actingish thing they could have asked -- it's a meeting, and the guy sitting next to me says "Gentlemen..." and I smack his arm, and he retools his address. Perfectly in character, have done many times before. Except the guy I hit usually whines about it.
And then the cameraman's all "You were good with the hitting!" Stop!

Would it have been more fun if it were "You were good with the hitting! Stop! Stop!"?
Did you tell him it needed more whining to be realistic?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What are people doing this weekend?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I need to take my car for an oil change and clean and probably do some laundry so that I can head out of town on Sunday.

Yeah. "Usually people cry when I hit them -- if you don't trust his acting, I can make it for real."
This weekend? Sleep, krav, commitment ceremony, at least one movie.
