    One though question for buddhists!

    Krav Maga

    I agree dude. One thing to consider though, street fighting is a little bit different from MMA contests with rules. Although BJJ is monstrous in a 1 on 1 situation, it's not gonna save you against even 2 attackers. Anyways, to be honest, I think the most effective training for normal...

    Why are Guys now carrying their GFs handbags for them?!

    Help!! Is there a problem with me?

    Sorry to hear about your plight bro. Just to throw my 2 cents in, my dad was henpecked by my mom for 20 years.. His personality (and mine) are very very like your's... Non confrontational, rational, giving, but when we are stretched we suffer immensely, in silence. So dad internalised his...

    ideal wife / girlfriend ?

    Hahaha funny, here's a little something that happened to me. My criteria are: 1. Ang moh pai with good sense of humour (as in, will laugh at Monty Python skits or Chris Rock's/Dave Chappelle's standup comedy) 2. Appreciates Britpop on the same level as I do 3. Smart, but not bitchy 4...
