"because you can't discern knowledge from opinion,"
this problem wouldnt seem to be exclusive to me apparently.
"Take your grand wisdom"
not grand just much more expressive then a few obscure lines stolen from philosophy books, I can think for myself not plagerize others.
"Or what of your other ridiculous claims "
Not ridiculous, I am just one of the few who have not deluded themselves.
"speak for the masses so clearly"
read comment on first quote. Reread until thoroughly understood. Atleast I speak to the masses and not to myself hoping others will hear.
"chastise practitioners of Wing Chun with 27 more years of experience than you have"
Age does not make one great. If you burn ppancakes for 27 years, it doesnt make you an expert pancake cooker, just an expert pancake burner.
"I don't have to mouth-box"
this is the first non-MB post you have laid down in some time, congratulations, you are correct, you do not mouth box, well anyway.
"if you weren't so thick "
Its the muscle one developes from weightlifting. I would go with meaty as that has much better connotations.
"whom you have undoubtedly bored away from here, suggesting that you do more listening and less talking. If I am not subtle with you, again it is because such courtesies are proven lost on you."
This one is my favorite. An excellent way to end your post as well. I have had plenty of responses, to those who are civil, and have the skill you point out in your first quote, (see above) they have seen my opinion and dont mind discussing differences. neither do I.
Most of the talking here is not worth listening to. A few diamonds in the rough, the rest is garbage, just my opinion of course.
You 'subtlety is not to be mistaken with courtesy. Courtesy implies kindness and atleast respect, you have shown little for anyone posting here, but thanks for not being 'subtle'. If th courtesy has been lost I apologize for being 'thick' as I have stated, to me courtesy would mean a good explanation with offhand comments about how others suck or thier post are trash. Atleast with me you get an explanation as to why I feel that way.
thanks for listening, or not.

I'd tell you to go to hell, but I work there and don't want to see you everyday.
