The mind transcends the body. It's also a little cold because of that. Please get it a blanket. I wish I could read your mind, I can barely read mine. "Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

The translator's note makes it a much better joke. (Potentially NSFW) |

Kung fu classes are taking effect already. We expect, of course, a running tally of people or objects that explode from sheer awesomeness. |

Nothing quite like that. Just the umpteenth attempted mugger of the year. Who wants the full story?  |

It basically goes like this. I was walking down the street when this guy approaches. He was skinny, smelly, and didn't look particularly strong, or even armed - but the way he looked at me told me he was a two-bit hood. Guy comes up to me and says, "Dude, I've got two other of my guys further down the street, we don't want trouble, we just want your money, your cell phone... It's three on one, you know."
"All THAT tells me is you didn't get into the drug-dealing business because you have the math skills of a first grader. Can't count beyond ten without an extra set of hands, can you? If you don't want trouble, you're just gonna have to walk away."
"Don't provoke me man, it's not good for you, just gimme your money and whatever else you got I can sell later."
"What's not good for me is inhaling the stench you give off. Pretty sure it's killing my brain cells just being on the same sidewalk as you."
At this point, the guy decides to try and get violent. Now, the most basic move anyone in "street fighting" goes for is a low kick followed by a swing - you grab the attention of your target and smack him in the head, disorienting him. It usually works pretty well because most people without any kind of formal training fights head-to-head, and only cares about the front angle.
I, however, had this moment of clarity where I could almost see the guy moving in advance. My brain kinda kickstarted the adrenaline from there, and I had this quick play in slow motion where he completed his move and I reacted. So I stepped to the side, making the guy get closer without hitting me, then stepped forward while swinging my upper body with an outstretched arm aiming for his throat. Dude flipped and fell on his back like a sack of potatoes. He clutched his neck and started coughing like I'd given him tuberculosis. As I walked away I could see his two "friends" running up to him and moving him away.
I can't wait to learn actual kung fu strikes. They're bound to be more fun than just improvising.

Do note that learning martial arts actually weakens your combat ability at first, since it makes you more predictable (especially to guys studying the same school). You only start seeing advantages once you're good enough to improvise them. |

Talked to a guy who drives the ice-cream truck the other day. He told me about one of his colleagues who got approached by a guy (approximately 17 years old) with what looked like a gun. As the punk puts the gun to the drivers face he realises it's a fake. So on pure instinct he throws a straight punch right on the guys nose, which breaks it and causes him to fall flat on his back. At this point he just goes back into his truck and drives to the next stop.
I can't help but laugh at how the punk must have felt
