Fuck You Style Kung Fu

[shanmonster]

I forgot to mention something else that happened. While opening a bottle of Gatorade, I slashed the edge of my finger open on the plastic lid, giving myself something akin to a deep paper cut. I didn't pay it any mind. However, since there's no running water at the camp and the hygiene was pretty much nil, my finger became infected overnight.

I remember dreaming I had flesh eating disease.

When I woke up, the cut was swollen and angry-looking. It was red and pus-filled, and I couldn't bend it. I managed to locate some peroxide and doused it thoroughly, but it was some time later before I could bend it. In the meantime, I wanted to practice Sum But Sao. Because I couldn't bend my finger, any time I had to make a fist, I was instead giving the finger in a very forceful manner. Try giving a sharp uppercut with just your middle finger extended, and you'll see what I mean.

It made me realize entirely new applications to the form which I suspect where never before investigated.

Fock Yoo style Kung Fu, nice. By the way, what is that spear hand thing you use to put out the tiki flame and how do you do it? Id love to learn how to do that, it'd be a neat trick at birthday parties wouldnt it? :D

It's pretty basic. Hold a spear hand straight out in front of the flame, so that your fingertips are about an inch away. Tip your fingers up so your hand is in a palm strike position. Keeping your arm and wrist in the same place, snap your hand into the spear again. Rinse and repeat. If you do it just right, the flame blows out. Good luck!

Spear hand? Ehhhh!? I need a long thorough explanation.
