    That guy in your avatar must have been floored when he saw half the C had come off his shirt.

    Well, I was floored by the mistake I made in my "Who Am I" thread, but fortunately I was able to grab my computer desk in a strategical clinch, and stay on my feet:hey

    As I understand it, Michigan Warrior meant that Pascal was surprised by the punch and the power thereof. "Whoa, that was much more powerful than I expected! MUCH more powerful!" In other words, he would have described it in a conversation as "ZOMG brah, that dude hit so hard! The first time he hit me, I was like totally floored by how hard he hit!"

    This makes sense, and if you don't think so, then I'm afraid you're just not that smart and lack the ability to read a fighter's thoughts.

    Alternatively, it's possible that MichiganWarrior was talking out his ass and had never even seen the fight. He does have a slight history of being an idiot...

    "Floored" is when a fighter throws an uppercut and literally lifts the opposing fighter off his feet, then suddenly an earthquake happened and turned the building upside down. Dumping both to the floor.

    Wait, that must be "ceilinged" or "walled" depending on how the building lands.

    Michiganwarrior has university pedigree so definitely you can not say that. I never thought that there is a special education university though until now.

    When I read what Dr Iron Fist would do for a piece of tail, I was floored.

    I did not say he has a degree. He might be the bum or stalker in the university campus.
