TOP TEN REASONS FOR BREAKING BOARDS:
10. It impresses the hell out of folks.
9. It gives a student the chance to strike his seniors in the fingers and then watch as they try to pretend it didn’t hurt.
8. It reduces clutter on a planet that clearly has too many trees.
7. It punishes jerks who think they can break boards without proper training.
6. It gives people the ongoing opportunity to use the “Boards don’t hit back” slogan.
5. It demonstrates that we are higher on the food chain than trees.
4. It gives the ever humble martial artist the confidence and knowledge that they could snap the average person’s neck like a twig.
3. It supplies motivation, lest you didn’t feel like jumping over five or so hunched over people.
2. Did I mention it impresses people?
1. The smaller chunks fit so much more easily into the newer woodstoves.

 Who needs trees anyway? They just block our streets and wreck our cars and litter the ground when they decide to shed. And who said they can reproduce and pollenate. Damn seeds make my eyes watery and nose itchy and * all sweaty.
I say we cut them down and use them for board breaking benefits for the guy down the street who lost his dog. The poor guy's been crying for the past week. Keep that in mine the next time you break a board. Do it for Timmy. |

Actually what I think we need are those big wooden medieval training devices that DO fight back.
You know, those whirly things you see in movies where if you hit one thing, another thing will swing around and belt you in the head... that sort of thing!
That would be some hard training! |
