TMA

"True martial artist", almost always used disparagingly to speak about someone who doesn't like changes in his or her martial art, for a number of reasons. These reasons tend to revolve around either the ability to make money by offering to teach a "pure" form of a martial art, or simply for the aura of legitimacy and lineage.

student 1: "that teacher claims to teach pure JKD, but he really just teaches a sloppy Wing Chun."
student 2: "so he thinks he's a tma?"

"Too Much Ass".

Sure it doesn't make sense, but it's fun to say. Usually used to describe a female with an anatomy not so much like an hourglass, but more like a pear. Unnaturally wide hips, or just a plain fat ass.

Because, after all, there is such a thing as too much ass.

Damn, that bitch got a bad case of TMA!

TMA

(Titanium Molybdenum Alloy) Trademark of Ormco corp., defines a superelastic SME (Shape Memory Effect) alloy alternative tpo NiTiNol, which contains no Nickel thus solving some allergic problems. It also exerts an higher tension force when deformed in the martensitic state.

I used this TMA orthodontic archwire instead of a plain NiTi one just to look cool.

Too much ass- As in showing too much ass. Not plumbers crack, but when someone pants and shorts are too far down their body and shows too much ass. Paralleling T.M.I. too much information.

Man that is tma, he should wear a belt.
