Provo underground fight club


I saw this picture on Sam's blog a couple days ago and wanted to put it up. Thanks Sam! I like the picture... It's a kickflip. That's all I do, but I'm proud of it. So I was looking at our stats and I'm a little surprised at what I found. This post I put up back in February, called "The Real Fight Club" has been our second most popular post of all time. It wasn't anything above the normal as far as a post goes, but every month, that post gets more views than most others. The post with the most views is called "Tyler Braithewaite is not a spy", and those views are either coming from the schools of fish Tyler is bringing into the Bolts of Thunder family, or from the CIA looking for Russian spies. I give it once again as Bolts of Thunder's official stance that Tyler Braithewaite is, in fact, not a spy of any kind. He's just a skater. So the second most popular post is "The Real Fight Club", and it's about Matt regulating when regulating deeds to be done.

So why is this post so popular? Why is it so attractive and seductive to those reading this blog? What is it about this post that lures people in?... I give it as my personal belief that people are actually looking for a real fight club, like from the movie "Fight Club," and they've found a home here at Bolts of Thunder. People around the world looking for a real fight club, look no further. Because we actually do have a well established fight club, with a club president, secretary, and treasurer. We even had a float in the Brigham City Peach Days parade last week, and we got a couple phone numbers from the Rotary Club. We're thinking of having a Tri-Club fund raiser in a couple weeks with the Peach Tree Senior Home Movie Club in St. George, the Brigham City Rotary Club, and the Provo Underground Fight Club, sponsored by Bolts of Thunder. I'll give you more details on how you can contribute when we set up the time and date.

Anyway, the point I'm trying to make is that we've got this awesome fight club where we just love to punch each other in the groin, ears, and under armpit area. We just thrive on that beating, grinding, and riding feeling that we get when we're destroying our bodies. We have nightly rallies underneath the Fairway station on 5th and center in some guy's basement (he doesn't even know we're there) where we punch, kick, and fight. If you are in a stable enough condition after the brawl, stay for the dance. Those are usually pretty good... Here are the rules of our underground fight club:
1 Do not talk while I'm talking
2 Do not talk while I'm talking!
3 This post will go on as long as it has to
4 If it's your first time reading this blog, you have to tell a friend about it
5 Even if you've already read this blog, tell a friend about it

There's just one more element missing to make this the perfect twist-ending post. And here it is: I'm really you! Think about it, I make blogs the way you want to make blogs, and... well, that's all I do. But I'm really not real, I'm really just part of yourself. Get it? You haven't been sleeping good lately because you've been catching up on old episodes of the Bolts of Thunder blog, and due to a lack of sleep, you've created a little band of skaters in your off time. You even just made a skate video. And got married. Man, that reminds me of 12th grade. Some kid, I have no idea who, had obviously just seen "Fight Club." So he was trying to convince his friends that he has bad enough insomnia, just like Tyler Dirden, and he might be doing things without even knowing it when he's in his lack of sleep zombie mode. Yeah, things like sleeping and dreaming. He didn't even know he was doing them! Isn't that crazy... I think the kid changed his story though when Matrix 2 came out, and he then said he was part of the resistance and had even been to mother city Zion. He was in that dance at the beginning, the massive city reggae dance. He's the one with the long hair, remember?

  1. I'd like to be in fight club. I get kicked out of all other clubs because they say I start too many fights. I'd fit in. I'm all for gratuitous violence. Are there dues?
