That's ostriches. My grandfather grew up on an ostrich farm in South Africa, they used to ride them. The farms went out of business at the decline in wearing ostrich feathers in hats and fans.
Martial arts shouldn't take years to learn.

Nah, you stand on the ostrich if you don't have a stepladder to put the bridle on your giraffe.
By the way, what the hell happened to this thread???

This thread was doomed to begin with. Ill-conceived at best. The de-rail(s) has been the better part of it by a fair margin.
They quite often are, it's because we communicate properly and get to know each other better. In turn that means when we discuss actual martial arts we see each other as being more friendly, more 'human' rather than just a user name who disagrees. It's why it's worth letting some threads, such as this one, run with the off topic bits. The tone of the thread has changed to something similar to a conversation you'd find friends having in a pub or café, if it gets back on track it should stay that way. If not at least people would have had a smile from the off topic bits.

I'm not sure that's true?, but of course we have no data at all to go on. From my observations of the fights i got into and a lot more I've seen, then its not at all in common to see unfit uncoordinated people fighting each other, and occasionally me. I think you can build a super bogey man who might attack you, when its far more likely to be some less than able bozo who is having a bad day
you just have to cut the % by being the best you can and then take what comes
i had a run in a couple of weeks back some guy who was far bigger than me in dispute over who had right of way ( me), who was confident that his,size would intimidate me, when it dawned on him that i wasn't at all opposed to fighting him, he left quickly, unless he trains harder than me, that seems unlikely as he was three stone over weight, then I'm almost certainly fitter and stronger than he was

I thought somebody would have brought up veggie mate by now.
Vegemite is a yeast product. This thread is about dairy products.
Don't take us off-topic, man.

Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder.
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover…
Exactly what goes through my head every time I hear the word vegemite.
Usually alcohol is involved. It can make skinny guys think they are Arnie, unfit guys think they are MMA pros and is more often than not the reason behind fights, actually it's behind a great deal of violence and criminal behaviour.

Yeah, but those are typically the fights you can walk away from. I've never had a situation where an un-fit, un-coordinated, non-fighter challenged me and I wasn't able to avoid any sort of physical confrontation. Actual predators tend to be a bit tougher on average.
