Oh hahaha, 90% of the people on this thread just don’t have any reading comprehension. A few points:
I’m enjoying climbing my way up to a bigger, stronger body - a long way to go yet, but a few experiences along the way that I thought I’d share.
A nice side effect of telling a story on T-Nation is that it can start a massive flame war. Excellent.
Wasn’t starting off as a troll, but happy to assume this role.
So, I saw this massive guy in the gym the other day - but he looked so unfunctional. Terrible affliction.
Well, I won’t disagree with you Prof X; in general, the bigger people here in england seem to be smaller than the big people in the US (personal experience). But then the fat fuckers over there also beat our fat fuckers, hands down. [/quote]
I think the problem people have is that you started this thread as an attempt at a veiled brag. However, you don’t yet actually have any impressive achievments. Although from your comments it seems like you may be willing to put in the work to eventually get to your goal, even if its a goal that is not shared by 99% of us (you keep repeating the old “big muscles are not funtional” line, even if you are saying it “jokingly”)[/quote]
Clearly you are just regurgitating information people have spewed thus far in this thread.
I did not interpret the OP’s original post as “bragging” or anything close to it. I think he knows that he’s not big, but had someone else tell him he was big (maybe for the first time ever?) and so he wanted a pat on the back for it.
That being said, it is a pretty dumb focal point for a thread.[/quote]
Apologies - I mis-read your post. Thank you for understanding that I wasn’t bragging!
And also, being 155lb makes … me … functional. Hehe.[/quote]

I don’t know what’s worse: that you fell for it or that you fell for it. Clearly, irony and sarcasm don’t translate well across the pond.[/quote]
No, most of you just aren’t funny over there.
You guys are basically just known for fucked up teeth and a Queen.[/quote]
Funny to whom?
Funny to a nation basically just known for obesity and retarded presidents?

World War II.
Fuck off.[/quote]
Is that it? World War II, that was the extent of your argument? Now THAT is funny! Thankyou for reaffirming the dumb ignorant American sterotype for me. You just made my day!

Well what makes my day is watching America save the limeys every time zee Germans come.
Although I know, we’re great friends now. You guys sent like 4 cooks and a hooker to Iraq. Thanks.

Yes, I was trying to sum it up nicely, to put an end to it. Apparently it hadn’t gotten through the first dozen or so times, because the discussion was still ongoing. And its still ongoing. In fact, I can’t believe I’m adding to it by typing this right now. Crazy.

If you’re small, don’t post a fucking thread about how small you are. No one cares how small you are, or how big all your non lifting friends think you are.[/quote]
Yeah, I said pretty much the same thing.
We NEVER get this shit from people who are actually big…but every small fucker on the site has to speak openly about how their skinny/fat friends all think their 14" arms are huge.
We never get any cool stories about how some cashier passed the fuck out because some 250lb’er walked in the front door in a tank top…but we get ten posts a week about how dudes who weigh less than my left thigh can’t find clothes.[/quote]
Was in Key West a few years back…walked in a local bar in the middle of a comedian’s routine…comedian looks at me just as I step in the door (I’m wearing overall shorts, no shirt) and he blurts out, “holy shit motherfucker, I bet you can bench press the whole fucking bar”! I turned around, walked out, and returned after regaining my composure. I have dozens more stories and of course the weekend club biddies talking shit to me every weekend. I’ll start a blog LOL.

It was better than the last four pages or the crap that is going on in that “calling all under 23 year olds” thread.

Oh right! WWII - you were saving the world from the Nazis so that they couldn’t come over and treat black people like shit.

A war that your country insisted on? Nothing personal but what a dumb fuck of a comment
