Default The kendo analogy thread
Hello,

Love 'em or hate 'em analogies are a part of the kendo obsession.
You know what I mean, you're sitting in an interview and there's a big scary guy across the table, and you tell yourself "this is just like kendo. If I can just use my seme, the job is mine".

So how do you relate kendo to your every day life?
This is your chance to be poetic. For the uninitiated, try making sentences using words like "like" and "as if". It's not compulsory, but it might get the shiai hajimed as I guess you could say.

The balls in your court, or rather, you are moto-dachi. Or we are moto-dachi; kakari-geiko with your katana (get it, I said katana instead of "rapier") wit. The stupider the betterer. The more pathetic the more rep points awarded.

Driving is a very ugly shiai. At Toulouse, you HAVE to use a very strong seme if you want to get anywhere on the ringroad between 4 pm and 7pm. I managed to avoid taiatari until now, but the aspect of my car (very dirty and lots and lots of small "scars", with a bearded caveman (me) inside) can be quite frightening.

Not a single "like" or "as if" !

Lookking at a far away mountain to prolong the inevitable whilst indulging in some home style horizontal keiko with a suitable sexy kakarite.

this one is for the smutty samurai thread


Doing Kendo is alot like making love to a beautifull woman ... First, you feel around until you have found the opening, then you slide in, explode, and hopefully, get a few nods by 3 anonymous bystanders.

Fumikomi is very useful when driving 650 miles to the next taikai and back.

To a woman: Imagine the MEN is just like men, beat the crap out of them.

to study kendo, one must first study his/her heart.

weak spirit in kendo = weak spirit in life,

all problem in kendo can be fix by putting your life or your view on life under a microscope and fix it from there.
