holy crapoly... I was thinking of starting a similar thread, but this is just freakin ridiculous!!! interesting- but i think you summed it up
 
I especially laughed at the Parkinson's guy because I can relate, and the Takada guy.
 
VERY NICE!! I laughed so hard when reading that. I'm probly the WhatChaWeigh guy cos im the smallest lol
 
THE GOOD **** GUY- He�s similar to the instructor, in that he can�t accept tapping....so if you are transitioning to a triangle choke, and he�s kind of sunk, but before you fully finish the hold, he'll tap and give it to you. This guy always taps on the transition to a move, not the move itself, and says "Good **** " like he let u catch him....and considering he didn�t tap when you completely had the choke sunk in, you didn�t really beat him.

That guy is great - I only made it half way thru that shit! Good job though!
 
I'm probably a mix of a number of these.


'The False Technician' seems appropriate though. I don't think I have much of an ego about it, and I don't claim to have 'invented' moves. But I do enjoy discovering things on my own, analyzing positions. Kind of like a puzzle or something, it's part of the fun for me.
 
I'm guilty of the Whachaweigh thing.... I just came to my senses and realized how annoying it can get.
 
lol i am the 'WhatChaWeigh guy'

i ask everybody..if they tap me or not, i ask. maybe 40000 times a month.
 
I'm more of a lazy possum type of guy, but I'm not really that good at BJJ.

I know a guy who fits this description:
"You have no time to tap" Guy-The guy that thinks that hurting your teammates is a necessity in wrestling and will put his hips into every armbar, triangle, choke, heel hook etc. Gives you no time to tap whatsoever and pops your elbow until you decide you don�t want to wrestle with the freak anymore. The guy may even be apologetic afterwards but if you feel bad why the **** didn�t you give me a second to tap???

3 weeks ago, this dude gave me an armbar (he did everything so fast that I had no time to tap. He let go when he heard a pop). My elbow is still not 100%.
 
Wow I got to like the 7th guy then realised I had like 7,000 more guys to go.. so I stopped reading. I enjoyed everything I read, though
 
The NO-RESPONSIBILITY Guy:
This is the young guy who is maybe 20 yrs. old who lives at home. His mom washes his gi, make him dinner, and all he does is go to 2 college classes a day and trains the rest. He is always saying you should come down to train Wrestling at another place or Striking at another, meanwhile you have a 9 to 5, wife and kids and a mortgage...LOL

That's me.
 
somebody that wished after 3 years, did his own thing.

This shit is not science.
 
"The Sherdog Guy- This dude never trains but comes in every couple of weeks to let you know all the updated info he has on the MMA game, and how he knows so much more than you do, about what�s going on with rival teams in Brazil."

That's me.
 
I'm a mix of lazy possum, gotta go and de man izer
 
I'm just here to bring back the thread since any grappler that hasn't read this has to.
 
Fake Technician guy.

I think I simply talked my way to purple belt.
 
haha, im so the no-responsibility guy, except not as bad as explained, i do live with my mom and go to college, however i wash my own gi and have a job.
however i rollled with a guy like this before,and he really pissed me off, he was in side, and i just simply rolled and flipped him, and he said i wasnt alowed to do that because i was using strength lol, also when i was setting up the armbar i grabbed the back of his tricept to hold the arm in place, and again he said that wasnt allowed because we were rolling only technique and no strength at all.... what a tool
THE PUNNY HUMAN GUY
He doesn't want to use (or you to use) any strength at all (as if Bjorn were supposed to develop telekinetic powers).
Whenever you tap him, he'll look disgruntled because, of course, you only got him by using strength.
