kendo

A great sport requiring much spirit, discipline, and all of that jazz. Unfortunately, a lot of samurai/ninja-wannabes tend to participate in this sport. Also, fencing is better than kendo. One would not be shocked to see one who participates in kendo as one who participates in band, and one who participates in LARPing.

Kendo makes your feet smell too.

Oh and kendo stemmed from kenjitsu in response to Ieyasu Tokugawa pwning Japan.
Kendo seems cool. What a great example right?

boxer

A slang name given to a member of the secret kung-fu society "Heavenly Fists" during Qing (Ch'ing) China by Western folks.

They consisted of people who claimed to be impervious to bullets and pain, therefore the Empress Dowager allowed them to go on a rampage.

The British and others saw they were doing some weird "boxer" fighting movements, hence the name "Boxer".
"The Boxer Rebellion was pretty ineffective."

2) Nearly the best weapons any class could have in the Everquest series (although later expansions would have better items available).

3) A genre of movie that is similar to the first definition.
"The Illiad is an epic that revolves around Achilles and Hector of Troy or something."

"OMG my epic takes too long, I quit."

"Braveheart was quite a good epic!"

Stanford University
