Is it true that the art of wing chun was based on a fight between a penguin and an ant? A friend of mine told me this, as it illustrated how form and technique can overcome brute force.

im dying to make a joke about the penguins in the arctic and ants in the ANTarctic, but don't worry, i won't stoop to that level. In fact, please ignore this post

2 pregnant dogs’ that would just square off and bark but never bite created wing Chun

In keeping tradition there are allot of bickering b*itches that are all bark and no bite

Thought everyone knew?
:D

What i heard was that the penguin got bored of the two pregant dogs just barking at each other and beat them both up. Whilst this was happening an ant sat watching. He was suitably impressed by the penguins fighting style and then challenged the penguin to a fight and the rest is history.

And yes it did happen in the ANTartic.

About all that was illustrated here was gullibility.
