It takes longer than a week to get to know people.

Beginner autism in judo is worse than anything I've seen in bjj. Half of them are legit scraping up against nonverbal and self head bashing. It filters somewhat quickly, but not enough.

>>210680
this is literally what every single person in the reddit thread is saying. I dont understand why OP felt the need to post this here.

>>210685
I think his point is that he wants to talk more about /xs/ topic he wants to talk about but /xs/ is slow and reddit is awful so he has nowhere to go.

OP you should embrace that there's a limit on how much you can talk about something online. Fast moving threads and communities lead to too much talking for the sake of talking and obsessing over minor shit. That kind of constant empty stimulation is what got you sucked in to this site in the first place and it's how the really mentally ill people here got that way.

The enthusiasm is good though just hold on to it until next time you actually do the thing instead of spilling it everywhere.

>>210698
i agree with you on your second half but I dont think that reddit thread is awful, the replies are the same as the ones you'd get here except nobody is calling him a faggot neet retard or whatever

in /esg/ every thread we get retards asking sperg ass questions about skating around other people or making friends or talking to people its the same shit as what OP posted.

IMO the core problem here is that people are always advising each other to get into a hobby to meet new people and socialize, if they're lonely. It's not exactly bad advice, but if you treat the hobby activity itself as instrumental you get this kind of faggotry and it's extremely annoying to the people who are really there for the activity instead of using it as an excuse. It's all strongly connected to the geeks/MOPs/psychos model.

>>210702
this is also something I wanted to touch on but kept forgetting. everyones suggestion to meeting people/making friends in the modern age is to get into a hobby but then you just end up with a bunch of spergs joining hobbies without any real interest in them for the sole purpose of talking to people.

>>210702
>geeks/MOPs/psychos
The what? Is this the graph with Terry A Davis in it?

>>210704
Anon is talking about this old internet essay about subcultures: https://meaningness.com/geeks-mops-sociopaths

>>210682
Is autism why the judofag is the way he is?

>>210720
how have i never seen this? to think that this is pretty much common sense now is pretty interesting. this is why you gatekeep shit. though im glad judo has an extremely steep learning curve that filters out normalfags efficiently, sometimes too efficiently. for every 10 newbies, maybe 1 will stay lmao

Should I try Judo? I’m a fat retard

>>210738
There’s lots of fat retards doing judo. There’s a whole fat retard division at every tournament.

I am not joking I am 100% serious about this.

oh yeah i forgot this had an incel element to it. original article is better

>>210758
Correct.

>>210677
They need to kill this place and bring back /asp/

>>210768
Pre-wrasslefag /asp/ could never exist again. There’s no more kung fu fags convinced their sifu could totally fuck up jon jones challenging random anons to street fights. The people with that attitude have largely been absorbed into bjj who have their outlet through actually competing instead of saying dumb shit online then pussying out of fights.


Half the fun of /asp/ was dogpiling on tma fags who say stupid shit. Without them the board is boring.

>>210757
Any hobby that is largely based on consumption rather than skill espression suffers from this mostly. See any trannies/woketards in combat sports? Exactly. I pity the video game and anime communities.

>>210788
>I pity the video game and anime communities.
why? theyre a buncha fags

>>210794
post body fatass

>>210796
lmao faggot anime pedo wants me to post my body to jerk off to

>>210797
if you weren't fat you wouldn't be too scared to show your body
we both know why you're deflecting

>>210801
lmao all this because i called video games and anime gay
stop being so insecure faggot

>>210794
Because I've slowly witnessed their subculture go from CoD lobbies calling each other niggers and fags to literal playable nigger bossgirl women in spec ops. I don't engage much with the community anymore but I do feel sad for them.

>>210805
>Because I've slowly witnessed their subculture go from CoD lobbies calling each other niggers and fags to literal playable nigger bossgirl women in spec ops
oh so youre just a retarded racist sperg then... got it.

>>210806
You can call me whatever you want. But the truth is there for you to see, just check any vidya or anime community outside of 4chinz. Weird hostility there, I just replied to your question with sincerity.

>>210807
>the truth is there for you to see
nigga I dont see shit but your retarded posts

>>210808
???

>>210738
tried it, fell on some dudes arm and ribs are now bruised.

Will go back when I healed, but will probably do no sparring for some time

>>210758
>an incel element to it
I'm married and my married friends as well as my wife agree on the importance of men having men's spaces and women having women's spaces. Some spaces can be coed but if all spaces are it hamstrings gender dynamics.

>>210817
It's still baffling that you managed this. Are your ribs actually bruised or just the fat over your ribs? Fat tissue bruises pretty easily from what I've observed hitting lean people versus hitting fat people.

>>210819
the comic in question is clearly about video games or some other nerd shit

>>210677
lol

>>210819
sure, but fraternal orders and female book clubs aren't what that comic or the subculture article is about. they're talking about music scenes or in the case of that comic, magic the gathering. i can't imagine a reason why such spaces shouldn't be coed unless you hate women, as the artist appears to.

>>210820
>It's still baffling that you managed this.
Not sure if you say this generally or if you read my post in the general (not sure if it‘s still there). Still I even managed to do this in ne waza and this never happened to me in bjj (did sparring 2 times there)
>sure it‘s bruised?
I went to the doc she said it is bruised, she did only some xrays. It is now a lot better but I still suffer occasionally. Also it‘s now 4weeks. Once I don‘t feel any pain anymore I will join judo and bjj again.

>>210841
I also want to add I am a fat fuck. 108kg, so maybe it has something to do with weight, maybe my ribs are kinda weak.

>>210677
what is there to talk about?

>>210827
You have very little life experience then. All the examples listed in the article, and the card game in the comic, are naturally extremely male dominated hobbies. Most music is created by men. Maybe 1 in 10 bands will have a single female performer, and that's being generous. Most card and board game players are men. Maybe out of a friend group of 20-30 people there will be 1 or 2 girls. And they will most likely be the gf of someone there which means she's there for socialization and support rather than interest for the game. Those spaces should stay male dominated because it gives guys a chance to socialize without worrying about feelings or having the more spergy friends compete for sluts.

>>210788
>See any trannies/woketards in combat sports?
All the time. There's a lot of trannies in BJJ and the like.

>>210898
>Most music is created by men. Maybe 1 in 10 bands will have a single female performer, and that's being generous.
Even in the case of solo women performers and girl bands, most of their songs are written by men and just performed by the women. That's why feminist types like to make such a hysterical big deal about female singer/songwriters: it's rare as fuck.

>>210899
yeah i shouldve rephrased it to account for relative prevalence. i do think bjj's lower barrier to entry is what encourages tourists and parasites alike to flock to it. compare this to boxing gyms (not boxing 'classes' offered by gyms) or grappling arts with much more athletic demand like judo or wrestling, who have relatively much much less of that crowd

>>210900
>>210898
not reading all that incel faggot shit. get a fucking life dipshit

>>210821
>some other nerd shit
Many traditionally masculine hobbies are described this way.

>>210827
>i can't imagine a reason why such spaces shouldn't be coed
If they're traditionally male dominated spaces then the feminization of those spaces changes the dynamic. All it takes is one woman and the group dynamic changes radically in social, work, and hobby settings. If you're used to your MtG club or whatever else being your fraternal order stand-in and you start to lose that it's understandable to want to resist the change.

>>210803
t. so insecure in his fat-laden body that he's scared to show it

god damn shut the fuck up you fucking faggot retards

>/xs/ is slow as fuck, practically dead at times
Thats because the people in /xs/ are sometimes out in their clubs practicing their sport. Unlike the lads at /pol/ that never go outside.

>>210722
>the way he is?
You mean based? Yes.

>>210677
Well if it were bjj she'd be completely ignored and tossed aside, likely end up quitting or being reprimanded by the instructor for lack of participation.
Or some equally stupid shit

>>213237
Nah as much as i dislike bjj, you gotta hand it to them, they know how to market and retain the average joe and make them feel welcome.

>>210738
You're onto something actually. Fat retards don't do judo, right? Well, if you do judo, you won't be a fat retard. You'll lose weight and learn a new skill. Fat retards don't lose weight and don't have any new skills.

It's 10x harder when you're a fat retard, but if you believe in yourself and the goals you mean to achieve then you'll further than you could by hating yourself.

>>213327
>Fat retards don't do judo, right?
pretty sure japan sent a fat chick to worlds 2022
either japan or france

>>210680
>>210685
No it doesn't, you have autism

>>213401
actually being really trusting is a sign you're on the ASD look it up.
If you trust someone after simply a week you're autistic. Just because you do martial arts with someone does not make them your friend.

>>213327
>Fat retards don't do judo, right?
I do agree with your point but I'll take the opportunity to report that half the old men at my dojo joke about having "judo bellies."

>>213327
See >>210739 and >>210742

>>213405
this is probably the one board where the majority of the user base actually participates in the focused activity of the board
then you have anons that just tell on themselves like>>213327

>>213401
lmao, so does everyone in the reddit OPs class have autism too then?

>>213408
>this is probably the one board where the majority of the user base actually participates in the focused activity of the board
Yeah, shame it's slow as hell. /sp/ is just full of spectator retards

>>210677
You could go to Sherdog I guess but the kind of Martial Arts discussion we have here died out on that forum years ago

It's the closes equivalent but not quite the same

>>210768
Please no

/asp/ got colonised by wrasslin threads to an insane degree

We've got a good thing going here, problem is the whole of 4chins is moribund

>>210768
>>213969
The issue is people are used to speeds of fucking /v/ or the top boards so when they start to trickle down into the lower end their ADHD brains cant handle the fact a good portion of this website is actually a ghost town

>>210906
>>210827
>>210898
I think the problem is that women are significantly better at preventing (undesirable) males from joining their hobby than vice versa. If you join a yoga studio full of conventionally attractive women they're all gonna passive aggressively give you a hard time until you leave unless you flamboyantly act like the gayest man to ever gay or are 11/10 ultrachad golden retriever himbo "haha I'm just here to try it out :)"
On the other hand, if a 4/10 girl joins any gaming community she instantly gets free beta simp orbiters

>>214202
>On the other hand, if a 4/10 girl joins any gaming community she instantly gets free beta simp orbiters
thats because gaming "communities" are full of retarded beta virgin nerds. a yoga class is women looking to exercise

>>214205
If a girl joins a majority male hobby group that isn't necessarily full of beta virgin nerds she will still get simps

>>214217
name a couple of majority male hobby groups that aren't also desperate for women.

>>214218
That's the problem, every male hobby group is thirsty for women. Even gay guys tolerate women going to their gay bars

The Judo Reddit is literally children. I've seen threads on there with people asking how to get good, and they're some actual 13 year old posting videos of shitty club comps with 3 months of training. At least here people at least try not to act underage.

>>210698
This. Just go look at faster boards had see how mentally ill the regulars are.
