(14,912 posts)about it. I have told several people "I *usually* get paid to hurt people, but I'm fixing to fuck you up just for the fun and the work-out of it". People would call me an asshole and I'd just look at them and say "that's MISTER asshole to you, fuckface". I went through a period where I was drinking and doing cocaine heavily and had a VERY cocky assed attitude.
Quitting drinking 20 years ago, along with quitting cocaine almost 24 years ago... plus age and wisdom, have mellowed me out a LOT.
When I first started bouncing, I found that you could talk to, and reason with, about 99 out of 100 people and never have to fight, but there was always that ONE PERSON who wanted to fight no matter what. Violence was the ONLY language they understood, and I spoke their language very fluently. I always used the core of martial arts as SELF DEFENSE, but somewhere along the way I lost my way and became about being a bully and being self *offensive* to get my way.
I'm glad I found my proper path again, and became the person I am today..
Peace,
Ghost
