@2mspris What is this I don't even....
It's a martial arts school, originated from Japan and the first "US School" was opened in Dayton Ohio by Stephen Hayes. I live fairly close to Dayton and grew up with a step father who was a Navy Seal, who started training with this group for something to do to maintain physical activity, etc. It's something I started doing with him, essentially.
I'm all for training, but "online ninja training" kind of makes me go "wut"?
Martial arts with your stepdad sounds pretty cool though. My parents ruthlessly kept me away from everything violent or martial for most of my life. Which is why now I'm such an easygoing, laid-back, gentle and non-violent person.

Are your eyes naturally that brown or is it just the shit you're so full of? /ducks.

I should say when I trained with that stuff, it was a good while before "online training" was a thing. We got in a car and drove an hour there to hang out for 2-4 hours. (And man I feel old thinking about how long ago that was.)
You are so old! Before online training? Tell me of your old days, were there dinosaurs?
I kid, I probably beat you at being old.
However, people tell other people online that they are ninjas and they mean it seriously? I mean I've said I'm a ninja, but it's right after I listed the things I tripped over during the day. Does that still count? #ninja?
@Catsmeow
You'd have to ... ask a ninja.
/puts sunglasses on.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!

I once knew another guy who told me he rang the bell in BUDS because he had a vicious O2 allergy.
Don't make me downvote you.
@Catsmeow
What? That was awesome. Don't be mean. ;___;

You'll probably hate me for this, but I can't remember not having internet. It was dial-up, but I think I was seven or eight when AOL/Prodigy/etc. were making the rounds. Not that I really did anything on the internet at that age, mind. And thankfully, now that I'm thirty, I can talk down to the successive generation about how we didn't have all this instagrammys and facebooks and you had to walk uphill both ways in the snow (in southern Georgia?) to like a friend's post.
@somasatori Well, as it happens I largely didn't have it because it just wasn't a cost my parents thought necessary/we had 6 kids in my family and we were poor. 
And then I just didn't know that it was a thing until I was in my twenties. That said, I was 22 yrs old before I ever had a home computer (with dial-up internet) and started mushing. I can effectively be called a late bloomer where it comes to online gaming.
@2mspris
That just seems so weird. Though, since you were on CrackMUX, I don't think you could call yourself a "late bloomer" into online gaming.
Title can be blank:

You have earned my hatred FOREVER. So much hate for ask a ninja.
@Cobaltasaurus
Why? LOL.

Why? LOL.
In part because I find it stupid. And in part because my ex-husband decided I should like it, and wouldn't accept that I didn't. Or at the very least thought it was funny to annoy me by shouting, "JUICY!" at random times.
I also cannot stand XKCD because of my ex-husband. Again, "No I don't like this" was not respected, and so I'd get GO LOOK AT XKCD RIGHT NOW! GO LOOK! GO GO GO LOOK!
>_<
@Cobaltasaurus I also never really understood the hype. And I totally feel your irritation. 
I like how this is completely devolved into ninja chaos. Who is Vuk who even cares anymore? NINJAS!
@Royal - it's almost like this thread got... ninja'd?
