In a game of defense.
In Defense of the Genre by Say Anything in 2007 was a 97x sponsored concert that I took my college gf to for her birthday. It was an all day even capped off with a showing of 30 Seconds to Mars with Jared Leto.
Dude, I was not thrilled. I was not in college. I worked at a graveyard. I listened to Chimaira, Can-i-bus, Chuck Misler, and Charles Darwin.
But pop punk was and hasn't been in my wheel house. Even The Offspring feels more metal than pop. Offspring is one of my top 10 bands.
This show was full of skinny, fat guys in tight fuckin' jeans despite it not be clear who was going to be fucked. I was once told if you sit down at the Seminole Hard Rock casino across the street from the Fair Grounds that if you cannot tell who the mark is at the table then you're the mark.
Just walking in you're the mark. Where the fuck do you think the money comes in from? They only use those trucks to get money out of the place. Your money. Sucker.
I remember when that place was a physical zoo with a gator wrestler and bears and tax-free cigarettes for adults and free suckers for kids. Suckers.
A bunch of C.M. Punk dudes without the muscles or wrestling magazine support.
The kind of guys Triple H''s character made fun of when the crowd was behind him over oiled-up bodybuilders who put in time in the gym. Hey, people used to like the guys who spent hours on the mat. Remember Adam West in the Batsuit, then compare him to Chris Reeve in the suit.
Triple H is on my mind because Stevie Richards and James Romero took a shot at him and he is often the whipping boy but he wasn't writing his own storylines. He, like Darth Vader, is taking queues.
Do you think HHH wanted to beat Sting at Mania? You don't think he knows who Sting is? Who decided that? The same guy who beat WCW. He wanted to beat WCW but did he want to end it? Did he want it gone?
They were selling out, he bought them on the market.
He also decides when Triple H, his King of Kings in his Universe, defeats our regional hero.
Do you think Triple H thought it was great to do a necro-mocking angle mid Championship run just to fuck with a guy? Do you think he wanted to pretend he was racist towards Booker T? Does anyone mock Necro-Butcher?
This is a show using pro wrestling matches as a vehicle. The hated wrestling, pro wrestling and even considered dropping the Wrestle in WrestleMania.
The dropped World Wrestling Entertainment to WWE to avoid Wrestling.
HHH is the red-rooster. The red-herring.
He's become the whipping boy for all wrong decisions.
This is what a king of king does, HHH.
He crops his hair as an offering.
He adopted a beard of trend.
The way workers used long hair to hide their mouths.
I really like him and that win over Sting, stings.
Like the demise of WCW.
Like you jab.
Sucker.
Today is a Jiu Jitsu tournament and I am heading over.
A game of defense.
Speaking of suckers.
Having neighbors that for somehow can have roofers starts roofing and sawing a 6am on a Sabbath.
Am I the hater because I asked "What the fuck" because I don't have a new roof?
That is the response.
This is like saying someone is sucking dick because they're thirsty.
It starts making you seem like the Gran Torino, the car.
I used to be made of steel and run on gas and be built to last, now you mother fuckers are being built of plastic, disposable, and built to replace. No wonder you hate labor so much you are talking women out of it.
Weak. Not effective. Effective at handing over the cash for new plastic.
Watching several of the kids matches first, including some kids from our school.
I saw a white boy about 11 get arm barred by a white girl, same age. He shook hands, crossed the mat and shook the other coaches hands, but when he came to his dad, his teeth flared and his eyes welled up.
He isn't crying because he lost to a girl, like some fucking prick watching thought. He didn't want to let his dad down. I'll tell you what. That boy's dad is proud to have a son competing in something and taking the stage.
I watched a few other matches. A lot of tears regardless of the losses or wins. I watched another white girl from the last fight beat a black boy from our school by arm.
I watched one boy beat a couple girl players and they did the same thing as the white boy earlier. Held it together until they approached their dad.
Some of the kids are different. The ones with a coach that isn't dad seem to digest the loss quickly and without much affect.
It is presenting yourself before your father that seems tougher for the kids.
That said,....look online when you see a jiu jitsu girl submits U.S. Marine in grappling match. Of course. Sure, the Marine is gritty but he is also smart but that doesn't make him a chess genius. He is well rounded for multiple tasks. He is a sharpshooter compared to an Olympic level shooter but he could probably grind longer and damage the shooter in a physical contest.

I respect the man in the arena.
I also respect the man on the telephone tower who volunteers for Brandon, FL and is a bad mother fucker in the Air Force Fire Fighter in his 9-5 dies in the line of duty on a telephone tower needing to be taken down.
You are the man at work and you don't come home.
Watching the competitors and being involved coaching and watching it seems easier or safer than it looks.
Capt. Boniface was killed in the line of duty for trimming a tree obstructing the view to the BRIDGE OF NO RETURN like cleaning satellites from around the black hole.
Pulling weeds by the hornets nest.
Observe and report.
Many people in Jiu Jitsu and in their field wrestle with imposter syndrome. This implies that you are secretly competent and able but you don't believe in yourself.
Trust me I believe in my self.
That is why it is not imposter syndrome there is not a way to make someone react when nothing is on the line. To be out there acting would be pro wrestling. Winning don't feel great, it feels unearned and fame seeking, to me. You can't be a quiet jobber paying to have hard matches but to make everyone around you look good like a pyramid scheme when you stayed up the bottom but have been a loyal customer since the doors opened.
It is not imposter syndrome because you short changed yourself. This is Darwin's Doubt, this is a form a self-Preservation. This is survival based on belief not truth. You believe danger is imminent and you vacate the grasslands for the forest.
It doesn't matter if the danger was present or not. The sense and awareness itself, the potential for danger have preserved you. This is not to show the belief is false solely due to your use or the origin of the belief. The Genetic Fallacy.
Because Nazis were the first people to ban public smoking it makes the The UK looks like Nazis to ban fags in public. Since the Nazis did this we cannot.
It's a cigarette, mate. I'm not your mate, fag. - Randall from Clerks: Animated Series
Remember Disney used Werner Von Braun - the Jew Killer - to promote NASA and the Space Program. He was a super brain for space. Was it right to use his mind?
We melted down all the Japanese Swords after world war 2.
Imposter Syndrome is when Imposter syndrome is a psychological pattern where individuals doubt their accomplishments and have a persistent fear of being exposed as a fraud, despite external evidence of their competence. Symptoms include feelings of inadequacy, lack of self-confidence, attributing success to luck, and a fear of failure or success. While not a formal mental health diagnosis, it is a common experience that can lead to anxiety, stress, and burnout.
So without the anxiety, stress, and burnout. Then what are you left with?
Maybe being a Black Swan, you mean Black Sheep? Huh?
Maybe this is Ugly Ducklings? You are math guy but you are into archery. You don't hunt because you don't have the vehicle, the wardrobe, the dad that taught you.
Where do you begin? Also being a dad what will you have to share. Some dad's share their favorite movies, no matter the rating.
Some dad's try to box or wrestle with their kids and hopes that it sticks.
It most likely won't but something about archery stuck in with the mathematician.
It isn't his rodeo. He isn't going to ride. He isn't in it for the medals. He doesn't belong there. He just loves it. It isn't his life, his wife, but he was bit and he cannot shake it.
It is his fight club. The two hour class. The occasional lone trip to shoot his arrows is all he needs. Something to not do the math job. He doesn't want to hurt. He just wants to let it rip. He wants to let the arrow fly.
Marijuana is the gateway. Gateway to what? You don't have continue down a slippery slope. You can allow for observances and let the details reveal the dangers.
Drinking alcohol and blazing up in front of your kids isn't wise and the alcohol will add up quicker. They call that shit spirits for a reason and it fucks up Indians and Aboriginals pretty fucking bad. Not saying it isn't for good times like when Lazar Wolf and Reb Tevye tilt a few and dance with the Russians.

Also for people who say Jesus Christ Superstar is a parody and not to be taken seriously are people who are scared that mocking Jesus has been a gateway to embracing Jesus.
The Alaxemenos Graffito, one of the earliest depictions of Jesus. The graffiti shows Jesus on a cross with a donkey's head, with the inscription "Alexamenos worships [his] god," apparently meant to insult Christianity. Found near the

Palatine Hill, 1st Century AD
The fact that the guy could even scribble and they had writing is impressive when you consider what books and manuscripts have survived the travel through time.
The only reason we have Beowulf is because 1 copy was found in the folder of Laurence Nowell from 1500 - 1530s called the Nowell Codex.
Without the Nowell Codex there is no Lord of the Ring.
Tolkien wrote about war but he was inspired by literature of Beowulf.
Remember when people mock others in public we get a receipt.
These moments leading up through 2008 - 2016 this guy really targeted a guy that Hollywood all liked, rappers looked up, and people tuned in to watch his television.
Then Obama, the Clintons, Puff Daddy, everyone else linked with Epstein too, all abandoned ship on him and he goes to the other side and cleans up.
Bilbo did not kill Gollum. Instead of killing him, Bilbo chose to spare his life out of pity, which is a pivotal moment in the story that had significant consequences for the fate of Middle-earth. This act of mercy allowed Bilbo to resist the Ring's corruption for a time, and eventually led to Gollum inadvertently destroying the Ring when he fell into the fires of Mount Doom.
Bilbo's decision: During the riddle game in the caves, Bilbo had the opportunity to kill Gollum, but he decided against it. He felt pity for the creature's miserable existence and recognized the unfair advantage of his own invisibility with the ring.
The consequence of pity: Gandalf later tells Frodo that Bilbo's act of pity was the reason he was able to resist the Ring's evil for so long. It also set up the events of The Lord of the Rings, as Gollum played a crucial role in the destruction of the Ring.
It also seemed odd the older side-kick was installed as the 46th which stalled more than vanquished the 45th giving him an even more historic Grover Cleveland foot note in the history books as being the only other two-term President to not be consecutive since .
22nd and 24th - first democrat elected after the Civil War

During his first presidency, Cleveland signed the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887, which made the railroad industry the first industry subject to federal regulation by a regulatory body,[4] and the Dawes Act, which subdivided Native American tribal communal landholdings into individual allotments. This policy led to Native Americans ceding control of about two-thirds of their land between 1887 and 1934.[5][6] In the 1888 election, Cleveland won the popular vote but lost the electoral college and therefore the election to Benjamin Harrison. He returned to New York City and joined a law firm.
Democrats struggled to win the U.S. presidency immediately after the Civil War primarily because their party was associated with the Confederacy, slavery, and secession, while the Republican Party was seen as the party of the Union victory and the popular former general Ulysses S. Grant.
Association with the Confederacy: The Democratic Party was the dominant party in the South before the war and many of its members led the secession movement. The party's national platform in the 1868 election included explicitly "anti-black, pro-white" messaging, which further alienated many Northerners and newly enfranchised Black voters in the South.

It looks like a what if the South won map of the CSA and the Union aka US of A.
There are many Americas, but only one US of them. New World Rules. Union Specific.
But now there is claims that this flipped and the Southern Dixie-crats, who enjoyed Woody's White House film festival at the White House.
Woodrow Wilson's connection to the film The Birth of a Nation is significant because he hosted the first-ever screening of a film in the White House, showing it to his family and cabinet in February 1915. Wilson, who had a friendship with the film's author and who had previously re-segregated federal jobs, praised the movie, calling it "history writ with lightning". The film was a commercial success but a major controversy for its racist portrayal of African Americans during Reconstruction and its glorification of the Ku Klux Klan, which many historians believe contributed to the KKK's resurgence.
Some folks felt like even Obama and Kamala were both front-men for the Democrat Band. Like a Plantation Owner sending out a [employee] to deliver the news because he doesn't want to come outside the Plantation because you may see who he really is....and you may not like what you find out.
Not all slave owners are a different color than you.
Slave doesn't always mean no [pay] or no benefits or special treatment for those who work inside the house. Remember what Jay-Z taught us and it magnifies what Malcom X said.
No not the bagging on Jesus rhetoric. The ideas he said that got him killed.
"You know they murdered X and tried to blame it on Islam." - Rage Against the Machine
Fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy. - I love that song. That song feels strongly American to me.
It was title Wake Up and was on the Matrix soundtrack from 1999.
That system was so able to milk us. Music and Movies and Music Videos and Albums and T-shirts now it's all online and there are no Magazine Covers worth a fuck. We all blog, we all can watch fights and porn for free, music is free. We already paid for the phone what is a few seconds for an ad too, right?
Back to being an anti-imposter.
I am not one of you.
You can be the loner at the Gathering of the Juggalos. You like the music but this scene of [freedom] comes with not only the ticket cost, but the cost you inflict on your family back home. You cannot sustain without work. Fame and public admonition isn't coming.
There is a reason Michael Scott wants you to understand the Chris Rock metaphor for who wants a reward for shit you are supposed to do.
I can appreciate what I'm supposed to do but even Apostle Paul wrestles with that. Sting made me appreciate apostle Paul by facing the WWE's King of Kings.
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Apostle Paul was, allegedly, according to fan reports, was executed by god's son Nero around 64/65 AD
Christians don't win. He is made stronger in our weaknesses. I don't like the Chiefs but I appreciated Patrick saying,
Patrick Mahomes plays football with the belief that his faith is central to his life, and he uses his platform to give glory to God, whether he wins or loses. He has stated that he prays before games to thank God for the opportunity and to be a better person, regardless of the outcome. His faith provides him with a source of strength and identity, helping him deal with both the success and failures of his career, as he has said that he plays to be the best he can be "in his name".
Remember the Muscular Christianity fad that kicked off the YMCA

Sometimes you can even feel like you are into The Lord and the religious aspects seem overwhelming. Then start there.
Like DDP the Wrestler and Arthur the Paratrooper from the Army. Do what you can.
You aren't an imposter if you aren't on the stage or in the arena. You are participating in the process. You don't have to vote to open the polls and make sure others get to vote.
There has to be gate-openers that are there for others and not for self gains.
If I open the fence in the camp for several to get away and they don't breed the kind of people who would hold a fence one day for others then there will be no fences held for you.
The Great Escape relies on someone getting caught and killed so that others can go back to normal lives but those normal lives that mirror the heroism of the one who died holding the line.
You may not be called to charge the Confederate line or storm a Normand Beach but you are called to be vigilant and maintain the flame when people tell you the threat is gone.
Someone standing up stream making sure someone doesn't piss in the water that you are chugging freely downstream in the safety of your village.
"We have purifiers for that now." You have people who live off purifiers but cannot build a purifier.
You have people who want clean water but do not know how to get it beyond a tap or exchanging your weekly check for a few bottles of it, right?
You are an imposter.
You don't know shit.
You can appear to know but you don't know.
This seems safe.
The brother that I grew up with and started the journey with belt collected too. He was skilled in karate before securing tae kwon do and a cert. in Combat Hapkido.
Combat Hapkido is no sport and is for higher class situations.
A "Come with me, Sir." hold is what they are called.
You may not have the space for double legs and it is handy for close-quarters combat where punches are to rudimentary and a scuffle is trying to be avoided.
Think in a church or bar when someone needs to be escorted.
The Master of Combat Hapkido, despite obviously given rank, would tell us the belt is only to hold up your jeans.
It makes sense.
My brother would often point out regarding belts, for some, where their belt ends a bitch's ass begins.
My brother once bought me the badass leather hat that triple H wore that was first worn in wrestling by Shane Douglas. Shane Douglas exists because he wasn't made to be the top guy on those shows. We could have gotten a fake Shane Douglas in WWE, a character, he needed the axe to grind. That grain to resist. If he was on top of the WCW who is he telling to fuck off. He led a revolution even if he was paid to.
Sure Triple H wore the hat too, he wore a lot of hats. He might appreciate Shane the same way we do. His friends fucked the guy over but so did Apostle Paul when he was Rabbi Saul the Pharisee. He killed Christians. Big deal Christians are generic and white and a dime a dozen, right. That would be convenient for the reverse narrative.
It's generic to the west because it is a pillar in the west. You are familiar with the pillar but you don't build pillars. You talk about how easily "we could build pillars' looking at them but you don't build them. Not without like minded 'gents gathering with cause.
You build upon past success and failure.
Sting entered the WWE Universe knowing that they would not know what to do with him. He arrives on the heels of the death of the Ultimate Warrior. Sting shows face to remember his Pro Wrestling Twin. His tag team partner in The Blade Runners, Jim Helwig aka Warrior.
So now that we have used a few rounds to take sight in on the pile, we can now shoot the shit.
Am I an imposter.
It's hard to say. Most people who say they are imposter syndrome suffers are experiencing the same anxieties everyone experiences and gets a lot of mileage out of by pretending they are exclusive and have monopolized anxiety sympathies.
We can help each other through it but if you are going to drag your feet then be prepared to pray with your feet.
I saw a really inspirational jiu jitsu fighter yesterday who was representing YESHUA-Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. They sponsor a fighter who has no physical use of his legs so they ask the opponent to have their legs tied off with a belt. Most seem to agree and are good sports and the man from the chair fights to execute loop, baseball, and Ezekiel chokes.
It is awesome seeing a team of guys in shirts that say YESHUA picking him up, and the opponent even, hoisting him up and putting him in the wheel chair after his fight.
You don't always win but the Father Son called Salvation Yeshua means "Yahweh is salvation" or "Yahweh saves,"
That is Who Jesus is. He is Yahweh saves. The God, not brainrot gods. Where are your gods now was a physical question. The gods were made of gold and silver that is able to be repackaged. Jesus cannot be repackaged and re-sold as anything and a new religion. He is the Old One. Hi, Howard. There was already a Nyarlathotep
He swept the countryside among women, oppressed Jews and God-fearing Gentiles, it hit the Greeks and Ethiopians and respected no race when it comes to Grace.
Everyone receives GRACE. It is there for the taking. All who look upon the Bronze Serpent were saved from the poisons serpents. No child cuts a check to their father when they reach out in pain. The father wants to gather us all as a mother gathers her chicks. That is the real way to say, :....or her."
Because early on God is described as a Word between
Not that this isn't being described by Moses in a local rap style that is meant for us to run through Rap Genius or Lyric Genius websites.
He describes God's sides interacting the way we blend business with hobby to create life.
Bringing the gospel to the Gentiles was a pivotal development in early Christianity, primarily led by the Apostle Paul after receiving divine instruction through visions and encounters with other apostles. This mission, which also involved other apostles like Peter, involved preaching to non-Jewish people, a move that established the church's global reach beyond its Jewish origins and emphasized that salvation through Jesus Christ was for everyone, not just the Jewish people.
Perhaps we can wrap this up with the defense of The Game and Defense of the Genre. Say Anything.
Paul was charged to bring the good news to the Gentiles. This seems like shooting fish in a barrel now since it seems the Gentiles are lousy with "christians" but that could be cultural and not practicing.
You can be laid back and enjoy the vibes without surfing, doing jiu jitsu, or smoking weed.
Bringing the good news sounds like you're bringing the Hendrix to a race rocker or bringing the Michael McDonald to the folks who didn't know he was white.
You'd think it would be as easy as saying, "this is like convincing black people to like basketball or rap music" both seems to be good at these two things.
But at the time of Apostle Paul, only the Jews and a few Romans and Ethopians and Greeks knew about Jesus and saw what happened. The rest of the world didn't know that God had taken center stage and had taken the best crucifix and punishment the Romans had to offer, the government's best shot, and He was still standing and eating fish with His friends.
Newsflash. This Roman empire isn't shit compared to the Kingdom that is coming, some call it heaven, but it'll replace all this one day, and to some that seems or could be read (red) as re-incarnation but that is often based on punishment and rewards for work or karma.
The Father has many rooms in His mansion.
So as far as this goes in defense of the Game and The Genre.
Paul Turns to the Gentiles
44 The following week almost the entire city turned out to hear them preach the word of the Lord. 45 But when some of the Jews saw the crowds, they were jealous; so they slandered Paul and argued against whatever he said.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and declared, “It was necessary that we first preach the word of God to you Jews. But since you have rejected it and judged yourselves unworthy of eternal life, we will offer it to the Gentiles. 47 For the Lord gave us this command when he said,
‘I have made you a light to the Gentiles, to bring salvation to the farthest corners of the earth.’[a]”
48 When the Gentiles heard this, they were very glad and thanked the Lord for his message; and all who were chosen for eternal life became believers. 49 So the Lord’s message spread throughout that region.
50 Then the Jews stirred up the influential religious women and the leaders of the city, and they incited a mob against Paul and Barnabas and ran them out of town. 51 So they shook the dust from their feet as a sign of rejection and went to the town of Iconium. 52 And the believers[b] were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Perhaps you are called to be the Light in your genre.
Sting stepped up and was slain by the pseudo-King of Kings, representing his father (in law/code/legal/public narrative) in front of a stadium like many Christian martyrs before Him but the video also comes with Him sharing the Good News in the WWE Universe. Sting comes there for the good of the common fans from all over, in good faith, to present himself and in character stand for vigilance and opposes fence builders like what was going on in the Main Event at Survivor Series.
Sting was cut down at Mania. No hard feelings. The Vatican stands as a tombstone of Rome. Sting stood again in place of a statue and took aided the working man again the show and the architect.
Yeah, Sting did poetic break down physically in his quest for the world title but not before helping the working man secure the United States title in the Penultimate match...but like the Great Commission; The Great Commission is the instruction given by the resurrected Jesus to his followers to spread his teachings worldwide by making disciples of all nations through baptism and teaching them to obey his commands. This mandate, found in Matthew 28:18-20, serves as a core mission for Christians, extending to all believers and involving their presence and power to fulfill it.
It is possible for us to get the good ending, the positive outcome, but it depends on how you wanna book it because we could get the dicey ending where we need a real Sting to stand against the Authority or NWO.
Sting brought the gospel to the genre.
That is my defense of the game.
In pinning Sting, you exposed who this is really for
In pinning Him to the cross, you demonstrated His power and His title, LIFE.
Life will find a Way - Malcolm from Jurassic Park.
Sting and Jesus, it all depend on how you book them.
Vince McMahon didn't know what to do with him, just like Sting predicted.
Wrestling and God go hand and hand.
Just like when a pastor brings down the house music to effect the mood of the crowd and to make things seem solemn. Secular organization do this too. You all use the same methods to get people to Like, Share, and Subscribe. This is here for the few who need it and the rest can keep on walking.
Jud: (narrative as he walks away slowly)
all you wives of adornment and shade,
listen to me;
let this serve notice to all the mothers of cowboys, and ironworkers, and
artists too...
I am not like you...
You know I'm willing to shed blood if you offend me...
I practice, I don't protest...
Because actions speak louder than words, that includes in texts and
nature....
and though you may claim not to believe something is out there
watching you....
...you'll live like you're hoping to impress an unsubscribed stranger....
...while not knowing who is actually stalking you...
you're busy living like you're anticipating something more everyday...
meanwhile you know that if I'm out here lurking...I'll take away his
purpose (pause)
and so now in the back of your mind you know your men aren't safe....
...and because you've grown lazy, sarcastic, and out of practice ...now
you have no hope....
and when you have no hope,
you have no purpose,
and when you have no purpose,
you have nothing to offer,
and so
if anyone kills your man he may be avenged 7 times
but anyone who kills me will be punished 77 times.
Does The Wicked Walk Alone?
