Kung Fu Trash Talk - Drunk Monk - 02-05-2021 (02-05-2021, 12:35 PM)Dr. Ivor Yeti Wrote: Didn't know where to put this question, but here it is: What are some of the good, old-fashioned MA trash talks? DM's latest ("Next year today will be the anniversary of your death!") is good. I often use "you must be tired of living!" And "shall we get to the business?".

Thanks Ivor! P.S. Anyone else a little worried about what cf will add here? RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-05-2021 TG: That totally applies. I look forward to CF's additions. RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Drunk Monk - 02-05-2021 "You have offended my family and you have offended the Shaolin Temple." That one is pretty specific but it's soooooo good and I use it often. RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - cranefly - 02-05-2021 "What a shame to waste my dragon blade on a rodent like you." "Scabby urchin. You're not worth the killing. Call out your father." RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-05-2021 CF coming in loud & clear! One I keep telling my kids when they hit too hard “We’re here for *Justice*, not *Revenge*.” It isn’t from any specific Shaw Bros movie, just a recurring theme, I feel. I have also used the generic “Ha! Your Foil-Fu is weak! I challenge you!” RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - cranefly - 02-05-2021 More on strategy than trash-talk, but a nice, if overwrought, turn of phrase: "It is time to call a halt. If we advance now and something goes wrong, it will be a case of 'ruining a perfect picture of a snake by adding paws.'" RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-06-2021 I’m going to reply in Conan: “Enough talk!” [throws dagger] RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Drunk Monk - 02-06-2021 (02-05-2021, 11:30 PM)cranefly Wrote: More on strategy than trash-talk, but a nice, if overwrought, turn of phrase: I'm going to translate this so from now on. The original chengyu is Hua she tian zu[b] [/b]画蛇添足 which means literally 'draw snake add legs'. It goes back to a fable from the Warring States period (475-221 BCE) where a master of a house held a drawing contest to see which of his servants would get a jug of wine. The one that finished first got overconfident because he was so quick and added legs, so he lost. It happens. "HMMPH!" - common grunt said before launching into battle.

BTW, all my quotes have come from Romance of the Three Kingdoms. When I read it back in the early '90s, I took extensive notes, which I still have. RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - thatguy - 02-08-2021 Sounds right to me... --tg RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Drunk Monk - 02-09-2021 Ronin Trash Talk (from Crazy Samurai http://www.brotherhoodofdoom.com/doomForum/showthread.php?tid=6109) "Your head is mine!" "Time to settle the score." "As long as I get to kill you, scum!" "You wanna do this? That'll be fun." "I'll show you what I learned." "Keep barking." "I never liked you anyway." "No one will know if I kill you here." "You ready? Here I come!" "I'll fight you in the name of the clan!" "Kid who knows nothing of war, what do you want?" "How dare you! Draw! Draw your sword!" "Who gives a crap?" "I just wanna win." "Don't retreat!" This is the bulk of the dialog from this film. The rest is all sword fightin' RE: Kung Fu Trash Talk - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 02-09-2021 (02-09-2021, 08:22 PM)Drunk Monk Wrote: Ronin Trash Talk (from Crazy Samurai http://www.brotherhoodofdoom.com/doomForum/showthread.php?tid=6109) Pure Samurai GOLD!
