WHAT WHAT IN THE BUTT?

"En Garde!?!!"

I always thought Fencing was kind of gay.

I mean, it's all about thrusting and Perry. Perry must be sore at the end.

EN GARDE!

Now you shall taste my blade tipped with yesterday's undigested corn!

Is it all koreans that dispute shiat so much?

I dunno: she seems happy.

That'd be in the butt bob

For hundreds of years, fencing was judged by the participants calling their own hits, honorably, the way golfers do. That was when I participated and loved it. Then they had judges. Then they had video. Then they had this video game bullshiat.

I'd rather have a knife fight in an alley.

He just has an itchy butt.

Yeah, yeah, something vaguely silly that gets misinter... pret... Jesus. Okay. Dude. You need to let it go.

Don't let Dan Cathy see this.

wait, you dont get points for butt shots?

slicing someone with a sword doesent count if its in an unspeakable place?

I dont get half of these sports at all.

Queers find the weirdest things erotic.

nttawwt

I sound fat: wait, you dont get points for butt shots?

Depends on the weapon used. For foil fencing, only hits to the torso and back count. For epee, anywhere at all counts (one American lost his bronze medal match today in sudden death when his opponent hit him on the foot).

Look into classical fencing as opposed to sport fencing. Its a little closer to ren-fair reenacting, where we pretend any hit that would draw blood will gangrene and therefore you lose the match. Simple touch doesnt count like these olympic electronic fencers. Youre forced to play defensively, fighting for your life instead of a dozen points.

I have the weirdest craving for a chicken sandwich now.

That guy was sweating so badly most of his kit became conductive. He later swapped out half of it for drier stuff.
He was prolly checking his swampass for conductivity, which would have registered false touches against him.
As the fault could not be replicated, Baldini was awarded the hit.

Looks like he was suffering some butthurt *puts on sunglasses* over the point

/YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Historical European fencing looks like a real swordfight, unlike this car antenna crap

No Chick-Fil-A for you!

I tried watching fencing this year. I really did. I gave it a good 15 minutes of my life. In the end, I couldn't get over the constant celebrating of points from both participants at the same time. You know what I'm talking about, too. One of the lights would go off and both players would jump up and down like they, well, just won the Olympics. Then sometimes the person who touched first wasn't awarded a point because they weren't attacking, or some BS like that. It was all way too confusing, so I switched over to badminton. At least with that sport, I understand the rules and know the athletes give it their all every match. :)

Thanks for the link. Really enjoyed it. Much better than the fencing.

Tush eh?

Yes, it seemed like a lot of the matches were almost random in who won as they lunged at one another, someone got the point, they both went nuts, and then got back to the start and lunged at each other again. Not a lot of classic parrying there.

I had no idea that existed. Cool.

Fencing can now expect some wrestling fans to cross over.

Wait... They hit each other in golf now? I may give that sport another chance.
