Damn, MyrddinsPrecint, you had me all stoked for a pic of a hot guy wearing a thong (in its usual manner of being worn...). I am so let down!
Fine, Cowpaste, you win. No matter how much I try to deny it to myself, I have to face reality some day, so here goes: I suppose I might be... slightly... lopsided. That was hard.
Okay, now do a bunch of offhand lunges every day to even up! I do! I would feel kinda bad for my girlfriend/future girlfriend if I were overly lopsided. :P
i'm lopsided, and over the summer, i came to terms with it, and i no longer really care. my boyfriend is a pseudo-fencer, so, it's not a huge issue.
Myra- yes i enjoyed posting it, but it's a different picture than the one before, the one before is of a girl
cowpaste- the girl in question will be going to summer nationals this upcoming year, you can hit on her then. she may smack you, but you can always try.
ps- i'll see what i can do about getting him to pose in a thong in the typical way. no promises.
MP- I realized when I opened it that that was CERTAINLY not a female fencer. No, he isn't hard on the eyes at all but the real question is, does he fence epee?
Oh, and I think I'd be posting those pictures too, because they are a laugh. I think that really is the only redeaming way to wear a thong! I mean... no, I just cant. No.
And exactly WHAT is wrong with being lopsided? I mean, at its worst, I can tell... only because I know someone fences and because I know what to look for. But I've never seen a one sided popeye type of look. And figure its all about being able to point and say, "hey, check out THAT! Yeah, I fence... builds muscles."

Nationals, eh? Well, I guess I'll need a coach, two extra foils, a lamé, protective equipment that is worthy, another body cord, practice, a few years, and money. Yeah, need that money thing the most. It's all worth it. Girls are cool!
The best thing about fecning:
- The adrenaline high.
- Finally beating someone ...
- Winning that first tournament.
- that 2nd or better yet 3rd riposte or counter riposte, esp in a tournament in front of an appreciative crowd and to hear the "WOWs!"
- winning after you're behind by a wide margin. I guess this is slightly differnet from being in the zone. YOu were not in the zone at the beginning of the bout, then you're...
Originally posted by jeff Being totally "in the zone" - when everything is working automagically: training and reflexes take over and you make the unplanned disengage or second intention parry riposte or attack into a briefly opened line without thinking or hesitation.
Being totally "in the moment" - when you're concentrating only on the fencing you're doing, and not thinking about yesterday's or tomorrow's anxieties, pressures, or obligations. That makes me refreshed after a good hard fencing working.
ditto
tho when single sex with female foilists was good too

she fences sabre...
although she's more likely to have crushes on foilists.
pkt- not my thong, although it is indeed the same thong as was in the last picture.
What do I love most about fencing? I love the way all the members in my current club make it their goal to constantly mock me. I love how everyone thinks everything I say is completely useless. I love how I have to beat someone 14981749-0 before I am a human. I love how we declare ourselves to be modern fencers, yet say, "Flicks are bad and evil and they are easy to defend distance always works that is all you need." I love the way we claim we are poor and cannot afford to go electric. I love how everytime a somewhat attractive girl shows up, all the males act like morons and have to beat each other to show off. I love how they make me want to quit.
I have absolutely no problem with all the males acting like morons when a new woman shows up. They look dumb leaping around like monkeys while I look suave and mysterious. Naturally, she will gravitate to me as my charm inexorably breaks down her defenses blinding her to any other available males in the vicinity.
mwa ha ha!

You know you have a drinking problem when you wake up in Idaho and don't remember how many aliens it took to get you there.

Fencers can have charm? We wear dorky white outfits. We do dumb looking footwork. We scream when we a get a touch, which no non-fencer can see. We do not wash our clothing. We are lopsided. Lastly, judging by how many fencing jackets are cut, we all have pot-bellies!
but the real question is, does he fence epee?
