WHAT? There is absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping with Aiko and Ryoko!

Aiko and Ryoko are both great... they have straight back and nice curves.

I absolutely deplore people don't pay respect to shinai....

10839934584935: When it feels better to skip an exam than a kendo class.

When you start counting ichi, ni, san, chi, go, roku, sichi, hachi (spelling?), for everything you do outside of kendo class.

When you grab anything resembling a stick to practice suburi, no matter where.

While mowing the lawn, you practice Suri Ashi.

While painting your ceiling you practice suburi. ( this really works on tall ceilings )

I've done the lawn thing too. I try to make sure I'm pushing the mower with my left foot, and I keep my shoulders relaxed.

53. You high-five people with zanshin.

That's a good one. On par with "kiai-ing every time you open an umbrella" from another list thread.

17. You have actually (start) watching anime Bamboo Blade...

18. ...and actually thinks that it is normal to have a 14 years old girl (Tamaki) to be more skillful then the 5th Dan adult Kendoka....

19. ...and you actually remember the names of all the characters...

Guilty, and it was a friend who sent me a link to the first episode upon learning that I had started kendo. I type this after watching all 26 episodes of it despite have a bajillion other things to do.

When your girlfriend finds kendo vids on the computer, and gets angrier than when she finds porn.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

When you find out that you're watching TV or doing something on the computer and you're practicicng suburi or left hand suburi

[Pheboasmabs]

The high-five thing is great.

When you do jigeiko (bare handed, pretending your flat right hand is the blade) in the copy room of your school... with lots of people passing by...

[Usesdiums]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Also, if noone have any objection, I would like to take all the suggestions and add it to my post, after editing for grammar and spelling errors. Please let me know if there will be a problem.

ps. - excluding 'left hand suburi'

Doing katate suburi while reading "musashi" in the park...full of people walking their dogs...and staring...

When some of the most enjoyable hours of your week include screaming, sweating, bleeding feet, repeated blows to the head and wrists, painful bruises, aching muscles and constant defeat.

[lorryuncori]

When you sit at home absolutely bored, counting the hours until the next training : (

This last one is really difficult to resist, but you do get paint drops on your face and head...
