For anyone struggling to understand the joke, as I did
Spoiler
Shuriken are also known as throwing stars, or ninja stars, although they were originally constructed in many different shapes.
Bravo. S-tier joke, fellow daddy. 👏
But can you do a dragon punch uppercut?
Sure you can!
Are you Ken?
I prefer a good, old fashioned, no bo-shit, big stick.
I mean ... sai ... its not like everyone has finely crafted throwing stars lying around, but kama(n) farming tools?
Much more practical.
((Apologies for the rough final pun, doing my best lol.))
more explanation
((Kama were basically used as small, single handed scythes for rice farming, bo just literally means 'staff' and the original use of sais, as I was told by my Karate Shihon, was that they were basically used , one in each hand, to easily pierce a baled up bundle of crops and then toss them into a cart... though as with a lot of Okinawan Karate history, that may be apocryphal, none of that is well documented ... because Karate isn't actually Japanese in origin, it is Okinawan, it was the self defense style invented by Okinawans resisting Japanese imperialism with just their farming implements, and a lot of their recorded history got destroyed))
((the sai pun is supposed to be that it sounds like sigh))
~~I don't get this one~~ figured it out right after I posted. Sound it out folks =D
