Thank you for your wonderful writing, Allison. I have not stopped laughing while reading this! It utterly beggars belief that any of this could have happened but my life definitely feels improved for knowing about it.
Ashida Kim was another one of these martial arts loons, er, dirtbags. His whole thing was the mysteeeeeeeerious DAHk AHts of the NEENjaaaaa.... /cue Japanese flute and woodblock/
I was a martial arts student for about a decade & a half and guys like this would insist on popping up everywhere. We’d always say say they “took a left turn into ninja-land”...
Hold on, hold on, HOLD ON!! So, is this where the lunatic dojo vs dojo scenario came from?! Like Karate Kid?!?! As a kid, I had an unhinged fear of being in the crossfire of such a battle as there were a few dojos around my town, but I was informed by a classmate who was in judo that dojo wars were a myth! I was lied to!!!!!
wake me up before you dojo
I love that you were able to include a reference to vegan milkshakes while writing a reflection on this poor weirdo!

All I can think is that he must have been the inspiration for Carl Douglas’s “everybody was kung-fu fighting”

Thanks for such a good laugh. The word unhinged seems to be coming up a lot in my life lately.
This sounds like a deranged cross between “The Warriors” and “The Karate Kid” and I am here for it.
