Oh come on Hugh. TGR is psychotherapeutic, it rehabilitates fragile egos making them into winning champions. Anyone not fitting the model has to STFU. Doctor Pretense has spoken!
Shut the fuck up and GET THE RED ONES.
See how easy it is to be brobrahbris. GET THE RED ONES. Plus a snarky bit of not-really-mockery in the Gaper Quote of the Week thread, to prove you're not a Gaper.
I doubt stuckie or woozie could do better at misunderstanding. At worst you're in 3d place in the Ego Sweepstakes. Kudos brobrahbris!
***************
A good chunk of time back, TGR had funny that rivaled The Onion. In the meantime, The Onion has sunk uber-low thanks to hipster misunderstandings of irony and content which focuses on these pseudo-ironies. During that same time, TGR has become brobrahbris-land, home of the insecure, land of the lowest common denominator "humor", less funny than Will Ferrell's least funny part/gag/schtick. And Ferrell's not even funny to begin.
Now it's all sincere schmucks who are sincere about being taken for heroes, either long-standing, newly minted, or understudy-seeking-first-starring-role. Don't mock the brobrahbrisboys, they're seriously worship-worthy and whatever they say must be immunized against "haters."
kidding dude. now, what the f is FSM? had me checking my loto tix
If you want a rally, you have to return the half-volley. If you want to putt for birdie, you have to get on the green. If you want to try to win the race, you have to get to the starting line on time. Blah blah blah icksetteruh icksetteruh icksetteruh. Now STFU and GET THE RED ONES, grinch.
If you want to know the truth, I'm eager for the day when this forum takes up the Praxis, and the brobrahbrisboys are our scholars of Marxism who must be consulted for elucidation of the hidden truths lurking in the convoluted tailchasing wise-words of Karl, the very first brobrahbris himself. Then we won't have mockery, japery, parody or other forms of hatespeech designed only to push a bigoted ignorant agenda of STOOPID. There will be only the Doctrine, purveyed by means of the Praxis, facilitated by the Anointed (known to us peons as brobrahbris and/or the Forum Heroes).
I'm old and tired. race is done. fuck it. who cares what FSM is riddler
seussy, please don't try searching for FSM anywhere, it's a hidden secret that only I can explain, and since stuckie and woozie and slipperydecline wish to see me blindfolded at 20 paces before 8 men with rifles, I'm not likely to be heard when offering the nugget o' truth behind what is FSM. Instead, I'll be feeding e-worms in an e-grave over which numerous maggots stand or squat and relieve themselves of bladder and colon content.
I know I shouldn't, but....
Irony: "the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really think especially in order to be funny" or "a situation that is strange or funny because things happen in a way that seems to be the opposite of what you expected" Source.
Why is chuckling at irony contrary to its dictionary meaning?
post pad.

Oh great, here comes a 10th string 2d chair litigator to try to parse word meanings. huhuhuhuh so funny I quote southpark huhuhuhuh seriously I'm a real JD huhuhuhuh
For it to be ironic, what seussy quoted me saying, I'd have to not know what I was talking about while I was complaining of people not knowing what they're talking about.
Irony is not coincidence, it's not awkwardly semi-funny stuff, and it's not what Alanis Morrisette sang about. Maybe Alanis was being ironic while describing nonironic things and saying they're ironic, that's early hipster meta-comedy of the post-irony-irony sort, but it's not irony of the same old sort humans have practiced in literature for millennia. If I decide to start calling bike riding by the label cowtipping, that doesn't mean cowtipping now means bike riding. Go up to a rural farmboy who lives around beef or dairy cattle farms and see if farmboy breaks out the bike when you say you want to go cowtipping.
Danno, does your firm actually let you conduct depositions or cross-examine witnesses at trial? Pretending you're picking me apart like a rhetorical surgeon, while offering a pointless argument? That may be somewhat ironic!
Freeride sickter mode. that's it eh. FREERIDE!!
I was just curious, I wasn't attacking you or attempting to pick you apart, but feel free to go at me some more if it makes you feel good, I really don't care.
In truth, I misunderstood your point, and personal attacks aside, you have clarified here; I thought you were saying that irony wasn't humorous per the dictionary definition which seemed an odd thing to me, but now I understand that you were actually saying that what he may have been laughing at was not, in fact, irony. I make no judgments as to whether the thing in question (I can't keep track of what the fuck all of you are arguing about, there's like 8 levels of meta here) was ironic or not.
Fine, I'll take the bait.
I've rode with mags, hosted mags in a spare room, and rented from mags. How many have met? Idfk,is this that jr high "how many friends do you have?" game?
I speak full well knowing some people are sick of my shit, so I toned it down. You otoh, rog, and creaky have seemingly increased your personal attacks and contrarian for the sake of being contrarian attitudes that no one else really thinks is funny. Go ahead and self-deport like you keep threatening. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
We just may let you depose that bystander in the redlight/greenlight case now. Well done!
*************
stuckie, old turd, you aren't making The Funny and you misread things to gratify yourself (hey Danno!) and protect that eggshell ego of yours. You tell everyone GET THE RED ONES and you win in the Gaper Quote of the Week thread, impressing other insecure poseurs who want to be in The Club of Disdain of Gapers. You do this while complaining of what rog, Hugh and I may say in jest to mock your and others' hubristic rookie "wisdom" shared as expertise.
Moving on... you hosted a Maggot once? Golly! If I recall correctly, in meatspace I silently nodded in approval when you said your FD didn't work due to problems inexplicable -- when it had no problem at all -- and I set up your bike, and I sold you a seatpost for a sixer and offered to take it back for a sixer in return. Is there some irony at play here that you didn't intend? Can you successfully take comments here as dire seriousness, pretending at offense of a kind that sends you to the padded room if not the autocide grave?
This is what happens when your sense of "irony" comes directly from woozie or The Onion or Will Ferrell, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher or Keith Olbermann. Or that Alanis song.
Have you ever visited this website? Maybe you should, and spend some time reading back at least 5 years. You don't need to go back to the start unless your urgent need is to know which psychopharmaceutical is overprescribed if not wrongly prescribed, but the most recent 5 years will certainly help with the online/meatspace duality. Be sure to pay close attention to whether the author is a seriously qualified MD in psychiatry, and/or whether the provocations are "hate".
To the OP...
I have a love/hate relationship with my dropper post.
I love when they work.
I hate when they fail. Failing means, having to go through the BS of rebuilding, or sending back to the mfg.
I don't notice the weight gain, but I do notice the missing function they provide when it breaks and gets (temporarily) replaced with a plain ole seat post.
Hey Mofro, time to get out on a bike.
I have access to demo's, just sayin.
oh now I remember something about FSM. not sure if because I was right out of it or because I am right out of it but I can't remember exactly what it was/is
FWIW- you should give Stucky credit from your non conformist rule book. He was a dissenting voice and posted something like "give the guy a break. he made a comment and is prob wacked on pain meds"(not verbatim). Denying you weren't in that pack mentality and jumping on a noob with your criticism of my preferred bike set up is simply untrue. hence the "irony", since you like to rail on against conformists and the bro brah pack mentality. water under the bridge but a couple examples o irony there
I should pt out , you've had more than a few positive reviews of your e persona as well although some would take the opportunity to deficate? on it. fight the power. i'll save my positive review until I learn/remember wtf FSM is
drifting back- my gravity dropper turbo has worked great for over a yr. tried the reverb once and I'd like to have that infinite adjust. its just way quicker to lower slightly rather than search for that one inch lower setting. if I get a reverb or lev I'd definitely keep the gd for back up. idon't think I could go back to not having one now.
what? your bot is on the Maytag, Fritz. trying to be brobrahbris with GET THE RED ONES is nonconformist? trying to be brobrahbris with a "putdown" of a "Gaper" in the Gaper Quote of the Week thread is nonconformist? I think your bot has a busted crampton flange.Quote:

we all have our moments. gaper quote thread shows the real gaper. just soothing my fragile ego w the "irony" esplain. all good. all entertainment. killin time. carry on
lifetime slacker award- 1st place \m/
this thread is worse than reading youtube comments.
And the only reason it has gone on this long is creaky and Hugh.
Same with the grips thread.
Getting really old really fast.
kookoo
kookoo
kookoo
stuckie demands that he be the center of attention and the ultimate expert, and not be mocked by anyone, despite his ignorance in meatspace and poseurship here.
you know what gets old fast? when you're helping someone with his bike and he's staring at your dick/ass while drooling, and he knows nothing about bikes but he pretends at expertise online and he gets "mad at" you online because you don't return his lustful glances in meatspace.
sickter, brah!
short stuckie for the tl;dr crowd: I built my TGR rep with gaper putdowns and empty expertise. don't make me off myself!
Yeah - you stated the point of posting on TGR is to meet people in real life. Not me. Several dozen, many places. I've said that many times, many places, it's a fucking retarded game you decided to play junior higher, but it's the cliquishness that's always been here growing more virulent.
Just get the drum circle going and sing kumbaya. Or you can feed the other psycho troll - gunit/buttmud - like you and Tye have now decided troll because the psycho troll of the psycho troll is my friend. Genius!
No. But for some reason a few companies for a few years thought it would be a good idea to spec their bikes with 30.0 seat posts and I own one of them. :nonono2:
Went with the KS over the GD for several reasons, but the appearance of the product was one of them. We’ll see if my vanity bites me in the ass.
Back to the original post, in my experience, the additional weight of a dropper post (which I don’t notice) is a non-issue compared to the benefits it provides.
Heh, the OP got way more than he bargained for with this thread.
I don't notice the extra weight of my dropper, but I am looking forward to not having a 27.2 post anymore.
Thinking bout adding moar weight to a FAT bike.
