A cup of coffee

[Tribesman]

The chemicals can have a calming effect in everyday life, though the stimulation they bring can rip through that calmness.
So how about Tea?
More of the chemicals by weight but imbibed to a lesser degree in usage.
Unless of course people go mad for tea.
Has the crazy tea overdose led to candidates that are so junked up and visibly twitchy that the Democrats will walk it in November?

After all leaving aside all the birther nonsense and instant hispanic voters you have to be laughing at candidates that think bicycles are part of a global UN conspiracy.

I have to have four cups of coffee per day. If not I get a terrible caffene head ache. Yet if I have the coffee too late in the day I end up awake late into the night. Like now. :damn::rotfl2::damn:

Is it a bad thing that so many didn't understand it, after all some tea party supporters can be just as freaky as the candidates they are selecting.

While it has some basis on pieces from the Irish and British press its mainly based on US coverage of the selection process for the upcoming US elections, so perhaps it is not illiteracy but simply just plain ignorance as you yourself suggest

Well, that's clearly not me, as I've been well-trained enough to know that kicks that high are for the dojo and exhibitions only, and almost always a bad choice when fighting on any surface where the footing is not guaranteed 100% stable, except as a no-other-options last resort desperation move.

It's not that we have anything against kicking people in the head, mind you. We just prefer to put our opponents on the ground first, or at the very least give 'em a good shot in the 'nads to double 'em over. Kicks to the head can then be performed almost at one's leisure. :up:

Yes, we followed the same principle/phylosophy in Aikido :yep:

Not to mention the fact that a kick that high attempted against a savvy opponent is a very good way to put one's own 'nads in jeopardy... a fact that some Tae Kwon Do would-be tough guys end up learning the :doh: way.

I once had a guy at work do a spin-kick on me, just for fun. I just happened to be raising my right hand for some reason, and I just managed to catch his ankle with my armpit.

He looked pretty silly trying to keep is balance, what with the hopping on one foot and all.

:yep:

And just imagine all the things you could have done from that point on, had he been a real attacker intent on hurting you. At the very least, he gets dumped on his butt.

I'm a kicker by nature, and flashy kicks are awesome... until somebody catches one, even by accident, or the one foot you're trying to balance on slips because the ground is uneven or sandy or gravelly.

Knees and groin are plenty good as targets and much easier to hit quickly and with maximum force. And if you're in fairly close they may never see it coming.

I think Bioware have been following this advice ,for the Han Solo smuggler type in the Starwars The Old Republic MMO ,there's a special move they can use - Boot the opponent in the Nads then shoot them in the head as their bent over.
Which of course gives you the best of both worlds - the flashy (Insert Fu of choice here) move and guns :D:D

I was always envious of those who could drink coffee. It upsets my stomach, but I have tried repeatedly to drink it over the years, as it is really so much hipper than tea. I mean, coffee shops are just plain cool. I've ordered tea before at a local Starbucks, but slinked out the door after the snorts of derision coming from behind the counter. :haha:
