I never was able to do karate. That's calling me a good actor. I act like I can do anything. ↗

I was mugged when I was 12. I had a portable radio, and I ran into this building and these two guys came in and hit me, busted me up and took the radio. After that I was very paranoid and I started taking kung fu and karate. But I didn't want to fight. ↗
