[quote=W. Rabbit;2418909]I didn’t know Ving Tsun was a distinct branch of Wing Chun. I didn’t even get that from the wiki, I thought VT was just an alternate spelling for years, since they are everywhere in gong fu.[/quote]Okay I have no clue why I thought that at all… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_Chun
Wing Chun (traditional Chinese: 詠春; pinyin: yǒng chūn; literally “spring chant”), also romanized as Ving Tsun or “Wing Tsun”
I had seen that Wiki page but my first encounter with Ving Tsun was watching this demo tape from 2007. I thought Ving Tsun was some new MMA thing at the time, before I started learning some Chinese. Then I learned about romanization and realized I was being stupid and it was just Wing Chun but now I guess it’s Wing Chun++?
a cosmic event that was observed by scientists around the end of last year.
Please provide the source material for this “cosmic event”. I am very much an astrophysics geek and would love to read about something so insignificant in the history of our universe that scientists ooh’d and aahh’d about it and an artist decided it would be best illustrated by drawing inspiration from the Earth and Moon.
On a similar note I just observed my three year old shitting his pants. It was about as spectacular as your avatar.
It was found in the Sydney Morning Herald but as I am not claiming it as proof of anything but an artists interpretation of something that happens all the time, you can take your demand, shove it up your stupid fucking arse, retrieve it and lick it like it was a lollipop.
Fair enough. I found the fuller image. I like the artist’s laziness in illustrating a binary star system…“let me put two little fake suns in the back.” I could have done that with MSPaint.
If that were a real planetary collision I am pretty sure none of the water would stay on the living world, in fact tidal gravitation would have pulled much of the water towards the moon world before they even touched.
Thread needs more planets colliding. Here’s a better illustration of tidal forces!

[quote=kikkoman;2418857]Forearms are effective in real fights and can neutralize the BBJ guard. The wing chun fighter can simply put their fore-arm on your throat, totally immobilize the BBJ guard.
