    The most annoying this was after Casino Royale came out and it had the parkour chase in the beginning. Everyone and their mother who parkours thought that it would be their way into hollywood

    I trained with that dude in the second video in the OP.

    He's kind of a douche.

    The whole parkour movement was started when the founder was caught in bed with his friend's wife and he had to make a speedy get away.

    this isn't a sport. it's running for douchebags.

    Yeah, can you believe those fuckers actually get off of the couch and go do something they find fun? Douchebags.

    I mean clearly they should just be watching professional wrestling instead. Much cooler.

    I was tempted to make a post similar to this one earlier.

    Decided against it.

    Turns out there's this group from one of the other co-ops that do Parkour once a week on campus. I've been personally invited out next week. Definitely going to check it out, and maybe get in on this.

    What the hell does the parkour lifestyle entail?

    Jumping over the kids on the way to the grocery?

    Shoe was just being a useless asshole and I was calling him on it.

    Parkour is just fine as long as you aren't being a dick about it. I'm sure you can hurt yourself doing it pretty easily but if you do it often enough it looks like it would be pretty good exercise and just something fun to do with some friends.

    Of course there are going to be a bunch of douchebags who associate themselves with Parkour. There are a bunch of douchebags that associate themselves with everything. It doesn't automatically make you a douchebag.

    Shoe's problem is that if he ever even tried to run he'd pass out 30 yards later.

    not really a story, it's just the general mindset of the scene is that they should parkour every-fucking-where regardless or where they are going.

    I dunno, I could probably make it look like an accident. And if they got all their buddies together to beat up a dude who was just walking along and accidentally tripped some guy who just got done running on top of a bus, then who'd look like an asshole?

    My game this year was originally going to be a parkour-styled game.

    It's lost a lot of that, although we still do have jumps and walljumping, which is pretty pimp.
    But real life parkour people are pretty nuts.
