Martial arts silliness

[kengr]

I was reading a story where a character had a lot of training in an "unknown to the world" martial art. and was starting High school after being "home schooled" their entire life up until then.

And I came up with a totally silly way they could "warn" bullies:

"I've got a plaid belt in Tae Kwon Leap!"

This then led to my trying to come up with other levels.

So far I've come up with these (from lowest to highest)

gingham
plaid
houndstooth
camo
....
paisley

Patchwork? XD Maybe that's the top rank.

Polka-dot?

calico
tweed (a rather lower rank)
tie-dyed


as sub-ranks, could do different fabrics, like canvas, denim, taffeta and chiffon

Well, I was thinking that for some ranks, you'd do sub-classes by color.

I've seen red & blue gingham, and I suspect there are other colors.

Plaid is a politician’s favourite colour. A waffle is their favourite food. And a hedge their favourite plant.
