Yeah, kids these days. Sheesh.

When I was a kid, there weren’t any kids.

We had to come down the birth canal 27 years old and drinkin a beer, up hill both ways in the fucking snow, which was 3 feet deep and littered with glass!

And we liked it! It built character.

But Now, Now you got these whippersnappers commin out, can’t speak a damned word, covered in baby goo, and crapping their diapers like a god damned baby!

Yeah, kids these days. They got no character.

That sounds like something Denis Leary wrote in his book, Why We Suck … if you haven’t read it I guarantee you’ll love it :)[/quote]

I’ve always liked him. I’ll have to take a look around for that.

In the mean time I’m gonna have to find some of these so called “kids”.

Apparently there is a whole demographic of faces that need punching which I have until now been completely unaware of, and the OP is too busy to be bothered with the task.

dude it’s because you’re so narrow minded.

you talk about guys being shorter than 6 foot and being ‘ripped up with abs’

why would someone want to do that? erhm…how about because it looks good? maybe because of their job or lifestyle they can’t be a 340lb powerlifter. maybe they like doing other activities that powerlifting would interfere with.

that’d be like me asking them why would anyone want to turn into a fat ball that only looks impressive the hour he’s lifting weights in the gym…where’s the point in that.

so you (supposedly) lift heavy weights. good for you. you want a damn cookie?

your post brings nothing to the table and pretty much just makes you look like an ignorant prick.[/quote]

Go fire a 50cal and flip a hum-v you wound up lunatic !!

I been at it on and off for a long time. Maybe its just the area I live. But I have noticed that most of the new quilters coming up dont give two shits about quilts. I mean sure they want good looking quilts but thats it. Most seem to worried about having a freking Beach type quilt. Im cool with that. But still. I just cant understand what so great about being just shy of six by six patterns at 180 thread count with a six inch batting but not being warm as shit. Is it because they dont know how to sew in batting? Or is it that they dont know what warm is.

I mean most of these guys dont hand sew or stitch. Without saying they stitch which is there meassuring stick for warmth.But to these guys if you machine stitch dual-duty thread for a few patterns your a studd.Has anyone notice this?Maybe I just have to much of a old spool mind set.[/quote]

You TELL 'em, Granny!

purely of its own accord, hilarious.

Ya know, I actually think “strength training” is becoming trendy. I blame the internet; then again, I’m probably one of the “trendsters.”

Whatever.
