Everyone who has been involved in martial arts long enough has heard a few weird or rediculous assumptions and stereotypes about martial arts and those who practise them. This game thread is to list them and deny or debunk them like so:

My name is Spartacus Maximus and I am a martial artist.

1.I do not break boards or ice with my head, (2) I do not utter high pitched shouts and perform backflips and (3) I most certainly do not attempt to catch, gnats or fruit flies with chopsticks.
