I actually spent yesterday moving all by myself… almost got everything moved over to the new place except the couch, bed and a desk… wanna come help me get the big stuff? hahaha[/quote]

There ya go. I would of asked for a plane ticket and a bottle of Jack.

Ever had a manlet get you to help him move some shit up a flight of stairs? The guy is like 5’4 and I ended up being the one carrying up an 18 inch boxed subwoofer backwards. FUCK ME.

Dumbest one I’ve ever been hit with: “dude, I’d hate to have your sewage bill”. Seriously? GTFO!

I’ve gotten the roidzz comments several times… still feel really uncomfortable with that one.

Had several people ask me why I want to get bigger. I tell them “because sometimes violence IS the answer, and if that question ever comes up, I want to get it right.” Probably not the best answer, but sometimes it gets a chuckle. Then again, sometimes it gets a nervous look and a backward step, so…

Had a group of women grill me one time about it, and they couldn’t fathom why I would want to improve myself. One of them actually said “but you’re already married!”. Never really got over that one. Great insight into the divorce rate, I think.

I’ve gotten some nice compliments, though:

Guy I’ve known for a dozen years didn’t recognize me at the water fountain until I looked him directly in the face.
“Dude, you have been working HARD, huh?”
me- chuckle “yeah”
him- “It shows, man, keep it up”
me- “Thanks”
Definitely made my day

At work, in the break room, stirring my coffee and minding my own. I tend to keep an extra-relaxed-but-upright posture to avoid looking like a douche (not sure whether that’s working or not). An acquaintance whom I’d never really talked to much walks up and says “dude, you can stop flexing now”, and we both crack up laughing. Had to yell thanks as the door was closing behind him.

I also get a lot of training questions. Mostly, of course, the answers are ignored or the person doesn’t have the discipline to keep up with it. I am happy to report that I’ve gotten through to one of them, finally. He tells me the other day that he’s switching to a program similar to mine (he’s been trying to lose weight). Says, “If I’m gonna be in the gym five days a week, I might as well get something REAL out of it, right?”

You know how I answered that one; “you damn right!

“Dude you take protein ?!”
-Well yeah man what’s wrong with it ?
“I won’t ever touch this stuff, PILLS to make you bigger make you a douchebag”

I think I realized I was swole the moment I gave someone advice and they not only listened, they asked for more and other people approached me for advice.

Just took the picture before going shopping for Quark a few blocks away.

Got to the grocery market and a little kid was doing some shopping also. While passing him a few times he was looking at me. And while passing him he turned around and still looked, this also happened while standing in line for the pay desk.

Must get bigger. :P[/quote]

Several of my friends now call me mini-Hulk or Hulk Jr. Cracks me up!

I’ve been asked my age and whether I play football on several occasions. I also tend to notice that when I lift there is always someone staring at me. Anyone else notice this?

Nope, I’m not that big. That’s why I need to get bigger. But do you have a picture somewhere? Or perhaps I’m still retarded and can’t find it, I went full retard finding it.

I looked too. Guess I’m retarded as well - didn’t see any pics. Wondering why someone would get so butt-hurt over a simple story about a kid looking at a fairly big dude. What’s pompous about that?

Cause it’s the internet. Some bitches just love consequence-free badmouthing.

Of course he won’t. lol. Those who criticize very rarely do. FWIW, you seem pretty big to me, if you locations of Holland is right, that by itself seems like it would make you even more standout compared to your average joe (I always hear there aren’t many people that lift and look like it in that area, any truth to that?).

Trolling is so 2005.

People recently have been making comments again since I’m back in the 240’s. If a stranger or someone I barely know asks if I work out or how I got bigger, I tell them I’ve been using the shake weight. My friends mom believed me lol.

‘If you did higher reps you’d be more ripped’

I suppose the reasons why people make such silly comments range from pure jealousy to just plain ignorance.

Though, often a mixture of both me thinks.

  • As to why people think it’s ok to say certain things to your face (people rarely do this to me directly tbf), I suppose it’s because muscle mass= An achievement. Whereas, surplus bodyfat= Nasty freak show!!

It’s much the same with being really tall, having people commenting one’s height isn’t offensive in-itself (it’s a compliment), as long as your _______ness doesn’t dominate their perception of you
