A Guide to Silver Screen and Roll Memes

Print[This is a brief guide for newbies to get caught up to speed with the various memes/ jokes we post on this blog.]
In a blowout loss at Oklahoma City last season, reserve guard Sasha Vujacic got into a heated argument with assistant coach Brian Shaw. It was rumored that Sasha flipped the bird at Shaw at some point during the whole incident. As a result of the argument, Sasha did not see any playtime over the next two games and had to apologize to Coach Shaw to get off his shitlist.
After the incident, we here made a bunch of jokes about how Brian Shaw is the omnipotent force in the universe (aka Chuck Norris) and how random events in history were influenced. An example of some of the jokes can be found here.
Lewis Monroe
About a day before the LeBron's free agency decision, some random guy left this post on SSR, written in all caps and with poor grammar (oh and the guy never posted/commented on this blog ever again). Thankfully, the mods decided not to delete this legendary piece of literature, so occasionally you will see around here post phrases from it such as "ANY ONE WNAT SOME OF THIS MONEY, IN IF YOU WANT SOME COME ON IN GET SOME" or other hilarious all caps misspellings such as PAT RAILLY.
LOLcats pictures
These pictures randomly popup on threads and etc. 99% of the time they have to do with cats.
Haters gonna Hate
you will see these pictures/gifs when someone refers to a remark from a hater or critic of the lakers.
Adam Morrison (AMMO)
Since AMMO came here in a trade for Shannon Brown, he has become a sort of folk hero and legend around here, even though he is no longer with the Lakers. You will often run into comments or pictures/photoshops that assert his fictitious place in Laker lore and etc.
Build a MOAT
In a preview thread and about 2 hours before a game, one of our users (gen!e) wanted to get more people to comment on the thread, but accidentally posted MOAT COMMENTS instead of MOAR. As a joke, some of our users (Dex and SoCalGal) posted pictures of moats. Gen!e then thought that a moat symbolized a good defensive structure and figured that building a moat would symbolize keeping others out of the paint, something the lakers haven’t done very well this year. So he then created the picture above (with a nice little reference to the great Lewis Monroe) and the rest is history.
Derek Fisher's Intangibles
A meme that pokes fun at the other aspects that Derek Fisher supposedly brings to the team outside of his poor defense and inability to finish on fastbreaks, aka the intangibles (things that dont show up in the box score).
WE WIN gif
posted by me after every Laker win. UPDATE: Sasha has been replaced by Luke. (courtesy of Koshu)
TRADE BYNUM
Whenever the Lakers are struggling or losing in a game, we jokingly like to use someone as a scapegoat, such as Andrew Bynum, even when he is in streetclothes.
this is one of the newest memes. It got started sort of when the Lakers were playing up in Sactown last month. Luther Head, one of the Kings reserve guards played horribly in his minutes, forcing some really ugly-looking 3s which lead to some jokes about trading Kobe for him. Last couple of games, Kobe has not been shooting the ball well, which tends to automatically prompt critics to say Kobe is a shot jacker, ballhog, and etc and this is where you will hear sarcastic remarks calling Mitch to TRADE KOBY FOR LUTHER HEAD.

story behind build a moat.
it was a preview thread, and about 2 hours before the game, but i had to go to class soon so i wanted more comments so i could converse with people but i accidentally typed MOAT COMMENTS instead of the common misspelling of “MOAR”. Then Dex and SCG posted some pictures of a moat. After that, it clicked in my head that a moat is a good defensive structure, and figured that building a moat would symbolize keeping others out of the paint, something the lakers haven’t done very well this year. So then I created the picture above. But basically it started from a misspelling i had.

wasn't the original text in english?

it might also be a folk-ish saying

CRACCCCQQQQIIIIIOOOOUUUU
I ran the English back to Chinese using Google Translate, then the Chinese back to English.
It was word for word like the spammers write it..
i’m thinking in Chinese it would mean something like “We have a reputation for quality. and a high level of service.”
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
yeah, because the original text was in english
i think we are at a dead end, since my reading of the characters does not make any more sense

Ah, British English
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
Yeah, but languages like Chinese and Japanese use quite a bit of semantic interpretation,
so isn’t possible that the (correct) characters (whatever they should be) in combination mean something quite different than the literal translation?
I’ll take your and CalLadLal’s words for it regardless, since I can barely count and write to three in Chinese.
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
what we are thinking
is that they meant something completely different, and it got lost in the original translation to english
cfb: ***** cbb: * lad: ****** lal: **************** cfc: ****
Haters gonna hate. Lakers gonna lake.
CRACCCCQQQQIIIIIOOOOUUUU
I think it might be the opposite in this case
“Lift” in english can have various meanings. But google translator (or whatever translator they used) decided to chose the meaning “elevator” (电梯—no ambiguity in chinese).
So if you read the statement, it literally says “service is our elevator”.

. . . like why is it the English versions of Chinese restaurants’ names hardly ever mean the same thing as the Chinese versions of the names?
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
The first part is also a literal translation
The first two characters have a material/quality double meaning. For example, if I were to ask “What material is this made of?” or “Is this made of good quality”, I would use the first two character for material and quality. The last two words also mean dignity but I THINK it can be applied for respect too (…well I know at least the first character of the word is used as part of respect).
Btw, I don’t think it’s an actual saying. It just sounds really awkward but don’t take my word for it cuz my Chinese sucks. OT rant but damn google’s translate pronunciation is terrible.

we also have kickers..
i’ve studied it once (when i was a kid)… it’s called sikaran.
and according to wiki:
Sikaran has its own distinct kicking styles. The signature Biakid kick is executed by pivoting to the back in a complete turn, much like a spinning hook kick or a reverse round house in other martial arts styles and targets the side or back of the head while the practitioner is in mid to punching range.
The degree of effectiveness subscribes to two classifications: “panghilo” (paralyzing blow) and “pamatay” or lethal kick. Obviously the first aimed at less vital parts of the physique, while the target of the second includes the heart, neck, head, groin, and spine, all highly vulnerable parts.
Footage from the Last Man Standing UK TV series episode on Sikaran (Youtube link, uploaded by the Sikaran group featured) shows how the style practiced in the province is done differently from Tae Kwon Do and Karate. There have been questions on the art of Sikaran as being native to the Philippines or being borrowed from Karate and Tae Kwon Do, but as can be seen in the Last Man Standing footage, to the farmers watching the sport and cheering on the sidelines, it is simply an ordinary sight common to their particular village, much like Sabong (cockfighting) is in the rest of the Philippines.
It has been said that Tae Kwon Do “stole” the signature Biakid kick technique from Sikaran as a tournament technique after the Japanese and Koreans saw it used effectively by Sikaran players(Meliton Geronimo) during their debut in the inter-Asian Karate tournaments in the late-60’s. This is supported by the fact that spinning heel or hook kicks were not used in competitions by Korean players prior to the 70’s.

Yeah, well done movie, and that fight scene was great!
The effort the actor who played Ip Man put into learning martial arts for his role shows.
Seems the movie was also inspired by the life of another famous Chinese martial artist and cultural hero named Huo Yuanjia, who actually did fight and defeat several foreigners.
As for JKD, the beauty of, and problem with it is that it’s highly open to interpretation.

^ THIS!
Many martial artists who look good don’t realize what they know won’t stand up outside of the rules they’re used to.

"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
there's two categories of martial arts in China, I believe
Wushu usually refers to the performance type. The one that looks pretty and fancy but has not much practical use.
Then there’s Sanshou (litterally “free hands”) which is just a mix of everything that they find practical (even non-Chinese arts such as MT). Usually practiced by ppl who are actually involved in combat, including MMA competitiors.
It's unfortunate that the Chinese government has largely propped up performance wushu
and not supported the traditional arts.

"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
I hear that's starting to change
I’ve been spending time tracing the Chinese roots of the Japanese art I study. It’s been a great journey, and I’m just astonished by how much wonderful knowledge and wisdom is being ignored by the mainstream.
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
but "wushu" is derived (combined) from the traditional arts...
but you can’t possibly expect the central govrenment to support all the hundreds of different schools out there. maybe it’s more up to the local government? Honestly, I don’t really know what the policies are.
Sport wushu also includes stripped-down / reconstituted interpretations
of many of the traditional arts. It bugs me that instead of putting effort into preserving the real things, they instead invested massive resources into creating pastiches for show.
But it seems there’s a greater acceptance now of the traditional masters openly teaching — both Chinese and non-Chinese students.
Yay for progress!
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
that's why there are two categories
the category for show and the category for actual combat.
i mean, let’s face it. The moves that are practical for combat doesn’t look nearly as aesthetically pleasing (for the general audience) as that for show. And that which is pretty for show is not always practical (I mean, super low stances, flips and twirls, really?). Heck, even the tae kwon do and judo done in the olympics probably don’t fare up well against actual combat.
Tae kwon do
is purely a showmanship art. Really you aint kickin NOBODYS but with it. although if you incororate some of the moves….
Thats why ive studied alot of different ones. Jack of all trades master of none (except tae kwon do)

"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
The two-category thing is way oversimplified
but I understand what you’re saying.
The sadness is that all of these arts were meant for real combat at one point: they were — martial. They were not meant to be dog-and-pony shows for the masses. Even if many of the applications became archaic (e.g. bladed combat), the open-hand and underlying principles are the essence of an art, not the outer form (even in many “external” arts). These are complex and nuanced understandings — the true treasures of China’s martial heritage. Forms / external beauty are the key to unlocking the principles, but focusing on the forms as the end-all neglects why the art was created in the first place.
"Please tell me some of these stories about Los Angeles being the basketball capital of the world." - Red Auerbach
"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
well, to be technical
if we were to assume that most forms/styles of chinese martial arts that exist today were to have originated from Shaolin, then they were often done as simple exercises for mental and physical health rather than true combat (almost like the purpose of Yoga). While there were periods in which Shaolin monks probably did get involved with combat (esp during turbulent times), it’s likely that most monks have never had to truely “fight” with their arts. So, it’s not exactly a modern twist for the “martial arts” to serve alternative purposes other than being “martial”.
Tradition is only marked by the frame in time. In other words, it changes depending on the era. When you turn “martial arts” into a “sport”, you just can’t have it truely become “martial”…unless we lived in ancient Rome. Even MMA competitions involve rules to try to minimize fatal injuries to the competitors. The stances practiced are designed for maximal effectiveness to take someone down in the ring, not to crack someone’s open or damage someone’s internal organ.
Even in basketball, folks will complain and complain about how the modern rules have changed and the basketall today is nothing but a “show” as compared to what it was in the 80s. But, whatevers we like to think otherwise, much of organized sport is somewhat of a dog-pony show for the masses. That’s why the Suns were so popular and no body pays attention to Tim Duncan. But I digress…what were we talking about again? J/k
My point being, so what if part of the Chinese Martial Arts sport have become a “show”? Just because they have emphesis on form, does it mean they don’t truely understand the essense? It’s not as if all combat components have been erased…it’s just separated out.
Ah, that's what's so cool about the arts in their original forms:
What was “good for health” — and not apparently martial in nature — built specific attributes in the body that were conducive to great physical power generated hand-to-hand or through weapons. One enhanced health while honing martial capability — not one or another. It makes sense if one has trained in these arts in the traditional manner.
At this point, the discussion would get overly technical and esoteric (at least to those outside looking in), so no need to go there regarding specifics of how such genial exercises apply to martial strength and tactics. Suffice it so say, such strength provides definitive advantages against another human weapon (again, fighting with or without traditional weapons), but contrary to the movies doesn’t make you bulletproof, as the monks and other masters found when on the wrong side of the powers that be (e.g. during the Cultural Revolution).
Just because they have emphesis on form, does it mean they don’t truely understand the essense?
If they can’t fight with it, and can’t demonstrate the development of “strength”/power to which I referred above (through fighting/combat and/or other prescribed testing handed down through the ages), then yes, the essence is missing because it’s no longer martial in nature, just another form of exquisite dance: shu without the wu!
Enjoying this discussion no stance. It’s just one of those topics that’s best explored while exchanging ideas in person on a mat: too many dimensions of the discussion not captured well in writing.

"质量是我们的尊严。服务是我们的电梯。" ("Quality is our dignity. Service is our lift.")
Unfortunately, my "mat" ability is in the negatives :p.
But I was merely trying to rationalize much of why the way things are now in a more historical prespective. Is taking away the “martial” aspect or making it more of a “show” really a break form tradition?
The orignal forms of martial arts were probably meant to defeat the wooly mammoths (j/k). But I think we can all agree that “martial arts” in it’s most original form (regardless of culture) was probably meant for actual killing in tribal war, whether as an offensive force or defensive force. Somewhere down the line, with more organized government, not everyone had to go to war, so civilians used it more for self defense. And if self defense is no longer needed, it became a simple form of exercise—in which case, the stress on actual combat/sparring component diminished and focus being placed more on the coreographed patterns of movement (taolu). Furthermore, sometimes these “martial artists” need a source of money and become simple street performers. So technically, what we are seeing today really isn’t THAT much of a step out of what is “tradition”.
Then, speaking of “forms”, it’s not as if the forms have not been modified over the years when schools branch out or become new ones entirely. Sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse—-or perhaps in times of need. Or you can be like Bruce Lee (and modern day MMArtists) and call for no form at all. But point being that “true” form these days are more or less impractical anyways. Nobody really does the sparring with the choreographed performance movements anyway. While perforance movements are modified to look more aesthetically pleasing, combat movements are actually modified for more practicality.
Sure, the current state of affairs regarding many of the traditional arts can be rationalized
But so have a lot of other unfortunate evolutions of the norm throughout history.
This comes down to personal choices and viewpoints.
I just wouldn’t want to be caught dead (literally or figuratively) trying to execute something that got me 10s across the board in front of a panel of judges but had no efficacy against the kinds of people who throughout history, today and going forward will continue to maim and kill as a means to an end. Unfortunately, self defense will always be needed.
And, whether a martial art derives its practical efficacy from forms or not (technically speaking, learning a take-down, arm bar, leg reap, punch-kick combination, rear-naked choke and other stuff used in JKD and MMA are learned through repetition of forms [though much shorter than CMA or karate kata for example]), people need to know and appreciate the difference between what works for real and what doesn’t.
In the end, you can have both: a Tae Kwon Do practitioner can learn how to do a 360-spin kick to break boards 8 feet in the air, as well as how to use that spin kick, or some similar circular move, to set up engagement distance in one’s favor against one or more attackers and locate the appropriate point of defensive response within a given scenario. Problem is, there are a lot more TKD folks who practice the former than the latter.

I love video games, but don't play 'em much these days
I figure the time it takes to master Guitar Hero, you could learn to play a real guitar, get real gigs, get real chicks.
Also, cutting with a real sword and shooting a real full-auto rifle vs. doing it digitally — no comparison. Reality rules!

long story. Was in the Corps for 6 yrs. got out and did civilian contracting for the Navy for 2 years, then when Sept 11 2001 hit i HAD to go back in. My calling came back. Went to Marine recruiter he said i had to wait 3 months for my old job. said F that and went right next door to Army recruiter. Told him what i wanted and left the next week for Germany.

Hey, if people can win prize money playing in air guitar contests (various national and international events),
then Guitar Hero / Rock Band virtuosos better be getting paid too!
No matter how hi-tech the world gets, nothing will ever replace the feeling of getting on stage and jamming as part of a band. I just look at it like the difference in degree of satisfaction in posterizing someone for real off an alley-oop vs. vicariously through an avatar on a flat-screen.

just crunch some cool chord riff in drop-D, no need to solo — just turn up the distortion and make the chords fat!

"Lebron has the ball, dribbles down the court, splitting the Lakers defenders with 5 seconds left on the clock with the game on the line in the 2011 NBA Finals Game 7! Lebron pulls up from deep, in Kobe's face and drains the three pointer! HEAT WIN HEAT WIN!!! 89-88!!!!!

Lakers in finals: 2-0 with AMMO, 0-1 without.
Great updates shaqfor3!
Re: the We Win GIF . . . I kinda like Sasha in it, ‘cause there’ll always be someone on the Lakers who rides coat tails (he’s not exactly been AMMO- or Chuck Nevitt-like his whole time with the team, but he’s definitely winning through osmosis of late).
If Sasha leaves the team, then maybe put up a fanpost with a poll to choose a replacement.

i think it was a Jazz fan who made it in response to being eliminated by the Lakers several years back....

Lakers in finals: 2-0 with AMMO, 0-1 without.
Wow. If so, then that's a lot of work to celebrate a losing cause or mock a winning effort.
Takes time, but simple enough to swap Sasha for someone else if/when the time comes.

if the suns weren't playing at the same time I sooo would have been watching that game
I truly believe this is a better laker team then the last 2 years ( scary)…I also felt like the bulls got WAY glossed over after the whole big 3 thing. they’re young and scary talented booz was the perfect peice LeWatsHisName would have stunted rose and noah

The Bulls are legit
and their defense is much improved, but at the same time, the Lakers took too many plays off and played too sloppy for too long to mount a comeback. That and our bench had a downright terrible shooting night, not all because of their defense.
