    Your getup isn't far from fatigues, you stop noticing protective gear after a surprisingly short while, and it just seems more serious.

Prior experience has made me overly cautious, but always keep in mind that protective gear doesn't make you invincible (head gear in boxing, for example, reduces risks of cuts and bruising, not necessarily TBI). Gotta be smart and careful.

Glad to hear you're enjoying Sambo though. :)

Edit: Don't wanna sound like a nag, just worried about safety is all.

I want to say "of course, I know how armour works", but then remember all the reckless, stupid shit I got myself into and can only appreciate you wisely looking out for me. Thanks, man! :)
