batskeetsSo I'm talking to the most extreme ultimate badass of all time (heh heh) while putting on my street shoes after wushu yesterday, and I start wailing about how I'll be categorized as an Advanced competitor in 2008, and how incredibly scary that is. Of course, Nelson's being nice and is all, "whatever, you'll be fine!" and I'm all, "dude, I'll get to go out there and get owned by Tiffany Reyes, haha!"
Then he cracks a joke about how I can just beat up all the competition before they get onto the carpet, and I'm like, "oh yeah, I can pull a Tonya Harding!"
He looked kind of confused by the reference, and I was surprised by that, at first. Then, I remembered that the Kerrigan attack happened back in 1994, and realized that he might not even have been old enough to remember or be aware of it!
Effin' college kids. I think I'll go back to my corner and AGE SOME MORE. XD
