First, let me clear up a bit. this isn't a diatribe on cheap
techniques. as far as i'm concerned, there is no such thing. well,
except when mileena or kitana throws you three or four or five or
til whenever you die times in the row or sonya players pull the
infamous "sonya cheat" (spake in a lower, hushed, don't-say-it-
too-loud-or-you'll-get-your-ass-kicked-in-the-arcade-we-don't-play-
here-like-that tone of voice); but hey...
i do have some peeves, however. i just wanted to know if anyone
out there shares them:
1) people that don't even ASK you if they can join in; 'specially
   if both of you know they'll kick your ass...
2) people that smoke really bad-smelling cigarettes while you play.
   i keep thinking "gee, i wish i could escape this stench" and
   die...
3) people who consider everything you do to be cheap, and don't
   waste any time in telling you this. when you ask them something
   like "why IS it so cheap when i throw you?" they can't answer,
   or say something like "i can't block against that" to which i
   respond "DON'T LET ME NEAR YOU FUCKER!!!" and we get in a row
   and all dat booshee... so, guys, what do YOU think is cheap?
   throwing? nah; if there is a move for a throw, i think you
   should be able to use it. i think people just don't like to see
   themselves getting flung aroung like a rag doll, that's all. ah,
   the plebes...
enough procrastinating for a night. i just want to thank those guys
that are posting the ongoing moves list; you're all great. and i'm
so glad to have FINALLY found a newsgroup that shares my mk inter-
ests...
