Yeah, this. I took a tae kwan do class for a while, and every single time I mentioned it to my friend, he went off on this long angry spiel to me about how tae kwan do was useless for a serious fight and how he could beat me up so easily with his "real martial arts". I was like "wow, good job jack ass, it's a good thing that I'm doing this for fun/exercise and am not planning to go around picking street fights, isn't it?"
