Fun Fact About Jesus Christ

This morning I was selling some zippers to a pleasant young man who drove a Pontiac Firebird. As he got into his car and drove away, I noticed a decal on his back window with the words "Jesus Didn't Tap".

Of course I immediately came in and Googled the slogan, finding this image from Mahalo:


It's an interesting story about the brand originating because of a young girl named Kenzie who has a neurological disorder called Moebius Syndrome. I highly doubt zipper guy used the decal in some sort of homage to Kenzie as much as it looked cool and Jesus was the shit. Those are his words by the way, not mine. He actually said that to me. He was wearing a very nice cross around his neck. I said "that's a very nice cross around your neck" and he responded with "Jesus was the shit".

So zipper dude likes Jesus and I learned that Jesus can counter the guillotine choke hold apparently. I'd also wager that Jesus' finishing maneuver is the crucifix neck crank. I gotta watch some more MMA. I didn't even realize Jesus was competing.

I would like to offer best wishes to Kenzie. Although I'm sure some Christian denominations have concerns with using Jesus' name or picture in a way referencing a martial arts sport known for beating your opponent physically, the cause is a noble one and my heart goes out to Kenzie and her family.
