Re-read what Ilumairen said earlier, who said it far more simpler--it had nothing to do with "losing an argument". You claim it's not calling me out by titling that thread with my name, but by definition--it is. I told you I was mad you created conflict by insisting I was attacking Mo Pai, I was only talking about the limitations of learning from video. You ignored my questions about immigrants and people with learning disabilities trying to study videos and those limitations--you insisted people are just lazy and unmotivated, and up to now, still have not addressed this point. You kept circling back to Mo Pai, and I said I wasn't even talking about it, just in general, but you had to pick a fight, and if she and others can see it but you don't, as well as your arrogance and inability to apologize for the wrong you've done, you're no better than the poor white trash refusing to apologize for the racism done to blacks and others for years while claiming to be victim yourself.

But by definition, you are trolling, as you did in the original thread and the one calling me out. Except what you define as "defending yourself" wasn't what happened; I never attacked you, but you attacked me, and I simply responded in kind to your aggression. Your refusal to apologize and dismissiveness are like the hipsters who say, "I'm not racist; I have black friends, so I'm just being ironic, and you're just too sensitive". If I say so.

Now that I am on my computer, here is a little more: Our particular Xin Yi encompasses a mixture of Bagua, Taiji, and Xingyi for skills, especially in tuishou, song, circle walking, and then Liuhebafa harmonies. Then we have all the power from Yi Quan, the bullet. The form comes out in Liuhebafa, the gun. Together, we have the skill to play with people like a dog and her pups, but we also have the power of restraint because we only need contact once to fajin. It takes years to learn it, the shortest being 5 (if you're lucky and the teacher is available, and you do all the assignments, and your body adapts without needing to take breaks; more often, people take closer to 10 years to complete it and be competent and even then that assumes they've rewired the body completely to build power). Xingyi was often learned fast because it could be done competently very quickly with just the five elemental fists and linking form, with their power coming from Santi posture (or "Trinity"). Some have claimed they could learn power and form in six months, some say 3 years, which is still not terribly long compared to Taiji. Bagua, for example, could be learned completely in 2 years for Liang style, but even then, the mastery of it is a lot longer since just memorizing the forms and drills isn't going to give you power or skill.

Xin Yi is tied to Yi Quan and Liuhebafa primarily and is focused on power, like fajin. Xingyi is focused on Santi posture and five elemental fists, and often the 12 animals.

any practice will be better than this quarrel that you made here. @MegaMind is right and he truly what to find a way to this technology. That’s great. Anyone can say BS I just don’t understand why you spend so much time to kick @MegaMind from this forum. You don’t have nothing to do? Or what? Go and try something and let us know. Don’t waste your time because it’s never enough. @Đрл Грей @Starjumper @GSmaster @thelerner @Zork All the grief Megamind has is self-created--months ago he created conflict and forced his paranoia onto me, someone who actually tried to bury the hatchet and advocate for the group, then does several egregious acts and refuses to apologize to me for it and says there is nothing to apologize for. Seeing how you posted in Russian, I want to ask how much Putin is paying you to troll now from the Internet Research Agency. Perhaps the FSB is looking to recruit WMPs to help them fight Siberian shaman. I can imagine you as a gopnik typing this out on your stolen phone smoking Chinese cigarettes.

Just watch the video of the slam dunk. You’ll learn from a video and reading the coach’s playbook and tips, even if it’s only the first 10 pages of his notes.
-
Interesting enough, he earlier said people can learn from videos and are just lazy if they don’t get it. Then he brags about tutoring others. Then he disregards official licenses and qualifications to teach because he tutored. Sounds like a real hypocrite. If I say so.

Dear Bums, It's that time of the year and I thought to experiment in a new tradition, in the spirit of being merry and where usual aggression, be it passive or active, can be turned into affectionate roasting and toasting, ribbing one another because through it all, we're a dynamic community and family, who bring each other up and piss each other off, like the Addams Family and the Honeymooners, even with a few odd ones out like the Archie Bunkers and Al Bundys out there. Begin with any member, conversation, thread, or memorable event of the year and celebrate it with a roast, a toast, or a jingle. You can do this as many times as you want, but you must do so in a manner appropriate for the season. And if you're Jewish, come right in and give us Hanukkah fun too. Let this go through Kwanzaa to New Year, folks. Whatever you do in this thread, don't be dicks... be Dickens! I'll start out with a little jingle, to the tune of Santa Claus is Coming to Town, a toast for Sean's triumphant return, I give you, Sean The Man is Cleaning up House You better not shout You better not fight Better get out If you're the Alt-Right Sean the Man is cleaning up house He's making a list And checking it twice Gonna find out who's naughty and nice Sean the Man is cleaning up house He sees what you've been posting He knows when you're a bloke He knows if you've been bad or good So be good, don't just be Woke! O! You better watch out You better not cry He's kicking them out Kiss the Alt-Right trolls goodbye Sean the Man is coming, Sean the man is ready, Sean the Man is cleaning up house.

It is also a big problem in Japan, which is interesting given it has a vibrant pornography industry and many people are consuming it there, not just their global exports market. The number one complaint we heard from women in Japan was that their boyfriends didn’t like sex. Many of my friends who hear this of course are happy to volunteer themselves for a good cause of addressing the emotional and physical health epidemic faced by these deprived people.

The real issue isn't porn itself--it only exaggerates the existing problems.

Guess I woke up too late and missed this. Drat. -
no, porn itself, as stated. “It” is the article and study.

3 Goals for this year, easy, hard and near impossible
Earl Grey replied to thelerner's topic in General Discussion
E here is much easier than offline. I tend to get into conflicts when telling people to lower the volume of their phone or use earphones instead of playing music and movies from their speakers, and some people are nice, others want to fight. I hate Steve Jobs for inventing iPhones and the smart phone revolution. I hate people for not respecting public space. This is why I end up in fights because it’s hard to ignore. -

As a Sagittarian Water Pig, I am hoping for a better year myself after a few bad ones consecutively. -
Strange, I thought Megamind would have gone to Dr. Dre for a pap smear! Hey, with that video of rubbing sticks and bare feet, maybe that foot fetish issue you identified is coming out...

Yes, many pre-requisites, and transmuting the energy is a simple skill, but addressing the desire itself is another issue altogether. Desire is okay, unhealthy desire is not. Some of my practices make me a horny little devil, but by the same token, they curb my libido and I can go between abstaining for months easily or being this way.

Earl Grey replied to thelerner's topic in General Discussion
Easy - do more training, reading, good eating, cash raising, loving my dogs and cats and rescuing and finding homes for more strays Hard - sleeping early instead of playing video games/going on TDB/chatting with Super Cultivation Bros Brutal - neither starting nor continuing fights and just accepting people with love, respect, and forgiveness -
You admire them so much you want to be like them--to the point of calling yourselves members of the Mo Pai lineage. Human, but you treat him like he's an idol. No one else? So there is someone, a regular! Hence thunder farts from panda Ken! How much was that 2b video, again? How does one know truth without scientists measuring for facts or sticking copper wires up your butts for you to measure amperage? Happy New Year, Megamind! May you tell less lies, smoke less weed, grow more hair, and practice more while posting no more here on the forum! And take a shower so you don't stink anymore, too!

Chinese pillow history - What is the perfect pillow?

More like if you can’t see how idiotic you sound or what a paraphrase is, you’re still an idiot. -
Chinese pillow history - What is the perfect pillow?
Earl Grey replied to sean's topic in General Discussion
what was paraphrased earlier is now here now that you said to post it. Calling me the product of colonialism and having only two choices—it’s like you’ve NEVER talked to someone who comes from cultures you claim to speak for when criticizing colonialism. That, gendao, is you being exactly the kind of person you despise: a condescending colonialist who thinks people from other cultures are not intelligent enough to see what you see. And what you see lacks ANY nuance of history, language, culture, complexity, or sociology. It’s bizarre you use Taoism and nature as an argument when you don’t even have ANY practice whatsoever or lineage to give you credibility whatsoever. -
Chinese pillow history - What is the perfect pillow?
Earl Grey replied to sean's topic in General Discussion
I have a screen capture and frankly it isn’t much of a stretch to believe you’d say something absurd, with all the brain damage you have being the unwanted scrotum dirt you are. You’ve done your own share of personal attacks, so don’t think you’re above it. I make no attempt to hide my animosity for you since you shat on my experience serving others and completely missed the point, so it makes no difference what you think or say because it is already a given that nobody on this forum in their right mind takes anything you say to have any value or factual accuracy whatsoever. Up to now, you still can’t show what your education, experience, or language skills are, and yet here you go time and again, thinking you’re insightful. Another year, another opportunity to accept that some people—gendao as one shining example—come in wide varieties from stupid to insane to outright idiotic. -

No, but I sure oughtta be paid (as should you and everyone else) for having to put up with him going on over the same crap in every thread and still not making any sense! -

Sleeping qigong position: a lack of pillow uses a rock or something to support the head. I practice it, so yes, we do use pillows or other supports. I use 3-4 pillows on my bed, and if my dogs and cat count as pillows too, then more. -

Chinese pillow history - What is the perfect pillow?
Earl Grey replied to sean's topic in General Discussion
You know, for a guy who keeps talking about broad strokes of history, truth, revolutions--it's amazing how the actual details of any one group of people, he never bothers to talk with them, doesn't speak their language, or spend time in their land, and then to me once said I wouldn't know anything about truth because I come from "colonized cultures" as though everyone who was "colonized" (and it's a very broad definition for him) is incapable of thinking at all. The actual quote was, "You lived in Hong Kong and the Philippines? You must be really brainwashed because they're both colonized people. That to me is probably more egregiously stupid than actual historical colonial mentality because it assumes nobody but him is able to think, when he hasn't even got any clue about individual histories or complexities--and assumes that modern people aren't ever able to go beyond his broad misunderstanding of colonialism. Using Rosa Parks and oppression for people whose lives were threatened on a daily basis and had institutional racism denying them rights and turning the other way as others sought to keep them down is a complete false comparison and false analysis, given that it's just a fucking pillow. Yeah, good way to start the new year: laughing at the absurdity of a little man who thinks pillows are a result of oppression, and doesn't know that old Chinese literature had pillows in them too...but claims to be a Taoist...
