    Listen, people are always talking about posting pictures of this, and posting that, post pictures of favorite girl, move, and we are always talking about Cauliflower ears, how to avoid, protect, fix, etc...

    So my idea is post pictures of your califlowered ears (ha!). Then well know if you really know what the hell you are talking about, and whos the computer warrior and whos been rolling for real. Once the pictures are up, well vote, and then award the Sherdogs "Worst califlower". Id post mine, but I dont have any (yet!).

    Oh it just seemed like you were excited. It's actually not inevitable. When I trained gi i knew brown belts that didnt have any cauliflower and in actuality it seemed like the people with cauliflower were in the minority.

    Damn, you didn't get it drained when it encroached on your ear canal? That's where I draw the line.


    My ears are well documented in other threads, you can look for them and repost the pictures if you want to.

    That's two words :p

    Plus once you'ce reached that stage why even bother?

    And that last one makes my ear look 100% normal - i'll get a pic up if I can find a camera.

    This thread rocks.

    Who gives a fuck if your ears look different than everybody else's?

    I read a book called "Stranger than Fiction" by Chuck Palahniuk (wrote Fight Club amongst others), and he was researching strange, true, things. He did a chapter on wrestlers and how the cauliflower ear was considered a badge of courage among them, a way to spot your own. At least, that's how the wrestlers viewed it.

    Me? I don't care for it, but if a guy has fucked up ears I'm not laughing. I will probably think that he's trained his fucking ass off, and has some dedication.
