What is "wax-on-wax-off-style advice"?

[–] TheBananaKing 14 points 7 months ago (12 children)

Practicing an easily-grasped task in order to gain proficiency in a more daunting one.

Have you not seen The Karate Kid?

I tried, but failed :-(

[–] mPony 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

did they use the line "wax on, wax off" in the remake ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nah. They focused more on picking a jacket up from the floor and hanging it on a hook. Good scene, honestly.

[–] mPony 2 points 7 months ago

oh yeah, that bit. I saw the remake once (and it really wasn't worth watching) but I saw the original quite a few times.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

The remake with Ben Chang came out in 2015
