Thankfully. I hadn’t been over there in awhile. When I looked to see what was going on in the Drunk Bush thread I realized why.

Heh. Well, they say that a picture is worth a thousand words. That picture just proves that sometimes it’s better to stick with words.

There used to be a couple of guys posting there who had decent builds. IIRC, look for pics of muscledbrute. He was a good sized fella.

Wholly crap! I started that thread, but left it a long time ago.

I never thought it would go on that much.

I wish the original poster of a thread could delete the whole thing if he so chooses.

I would say “WTF?!?” but that would be too mild. Human language really cannot convey…

Oh man that’s some funny shit!!! If someone used that to learn English, do you think they would need to throw in the “moves” because it would be in their memory? It would be like saying the alphabet’s without signing it. No matter how much I trie, I end up signing it around J or so… Now I bet there will be a buch of Japaneese people going around doing areobics moves while talking. That would be priceless.

As do I. I also wish T-mag had a “New replies to your posts” feature. I’ve seen it on other boards and it’s great, especially for those times when you can’t keep up with all the threads you’ve participated in.

No they don’t, so Headhunter posts his in the “Get a Life” section instead.

It makes me wonder what your concept of “really built” is.[/quote]

BTW, that was supposed to be sarcastic. I shouldn’t really talk shit on them as I’ve only been there once before. I take it that it’s not even worth my time though?

Maybe if you’re new to the scene and need to lay down a foundation and learn how to perform exercises. But anybody with about 1 year of training doesn’t really need it. It’s good for ordering some supplements though as they carry everything.

Indeed, the variety is nice.

I find that fitness video strangely arousing…

Just been over to bb.com and the common consensus seems to be that T-Nation sucks and most of Biotest’s more exotic products are poop. Are they right or is there some beef between T-Nation and bb.com I don’t know about?

You have to give them a break. Most of the readers over there are 16 and they found the site because it’s probably the first one that pops up when you google “bodybuilding”.

And as far as T-Nation sucking, they probably don’t realize that a good number of their articles have been lifted directly off T-Nation (without Tim’s permission or mine).

Well TC, it looks like you’re not the only one having a problem with Mr. Delucas way of doing business.

I agree. I also refuse to waste my time typing “DO A SEARCH YOU STUPID F’N NOOOOOB!!!” every time someone asks whether they should drink their morning protein shake before or after morning cardio or whether its better mixed in milk or water.

Doesn’t matter about weight!!!..so a tiny f-tard at 135 lbs could fit your description of really built…

The level of BF % you are talking about would be in the 5% range , and in order to maintain this level of BF year round …one would remain tiny 135 lb f-tard…

Not nearly as priceless as your spelling in this paragraph. You might want to think twice about ripping on foreigners’ English skills.

Do you usually “sign” the alphabet with a pen or felt tip marker?

Do you “trie” to “sign” the “alphabet’s” while doing a “buch” of “areobics” as well?
