Easy mistake to make

I think .... the Tombo Dojo in Sheffield used to be down Snig Hill way ..... it only trained once a week but closed a few years ago ..... it was however linked to a Bujinkai Dojo (by the same Tombo Dojo name I think) in Manchester?????

That's in Manchester. Crazy ninjas.

What's ninjutsu?

A critic might define it as a "martial art of dubious origins, popular with fantisists. The vast majority of practicioners of ninjutsu are citizens of the USA."

There are plenty of other martial arts to study, and that won't end up seeming a bit silly.

Thanks but my question hasn't been answered. What exactly is it?

A bunch of fat b'stards who can't fight running around in black pajamas?

Sounds as though it would suit me perfectly! Where do I sign?

Also practicing jumping on each other out of trees in the middle of the night to strangle each other with their legs, so I hear.

Crazy ninjas. They scare me though, I'm always fighting ninjas in my dreams for some reason.

There are two answers,

1. Part of Japanese medieval warfare
2. How it is in the West, a martial art of Japanese origin.

To elaborate on 2: in the West, e.g. Britain the USA, there has been a tendency to romanticise the ninja, based mainly on crap films. This has in turn attracted loads of nerds who would like to be 'like them what 'on telly''. To be fair, Bujinkan is a bit more that that, but it is not in any way koryu and is populated by white fantasists. The easy way to spot a fake ninja is their addiction to tabi (Japanese slippers). If you see them, you can be 99% sure it is a fake ninja.

What's the point of getting laid if you don't actually manage it but you're still taking the chance of getting her up the duff?

Boo to that, sir, BOO to that!
