This sentence literally made no sense at all.[/quote]
Crouse it does your not big so you can’t see progress or make comments about it

This is why I keep saying and emphasizing comparable pics lighting and poses. No damn shirt to actually see progress. Otherwise there are just too mnay variables. [/quote]
Then don’t worry about it. Those pics are YEARS apart and I am leaner now than I was then. If you can’t see the growth of muscle there, then I would value your opinion much less when it comes to viewing ayone else’s progress.

They aren’t comparable in any way I can’t make comment other than thst
I am by no means attempting to take sides. I just figured I’d give an objective opinion on things. I have been a lurker on this site for a few years now, joined about a year or so ago, but have just recently decided to actually post on here. I will admit, one of the biggest reasons that I was hesitant to engage in the forum discussions was because of much of the drama that surrounds the Professor.
I have to say that, although he seems to want to create a sense of camaraderie in these discussions, he is one of the reasons I haven’t wanted to post until now, as I just can’t respect his attitude towards a great deal of things. This wouldn’t be much of an issue, except for the fact that he finds a way into many of the threads on here.
However, I will also say that, as of late, I don’t feel like the opposition, as I’ll call them, have acted much better. They seem to take enjoyment out of harassing X as of late.
On another note, regarding the pictures of Professor X, I can easily say that he’s a large man with a substantial amount of muscle. Professor X should be proud of what he has accomplished. Now, being proud, one must understand, does not equate to looking upon other individuals and their progress as being inferior. I think the great Professor could learn to be happy with his physique for the sake of happiness, without needing validation resulting from claiming that his is more impressive than most others’.
Lastly, and this might be attributed to his age or various other factors, I do have to say that I have not seen any large changes in the Professor’s physique in the past few years, outside of his recent fat loss. Once again, the Professor is most definitely in possession of a lot of muscle, but I feel that his progress hasn’t been all that drastic in awhile. I really do respect the amount of work many of you have put into your physiques, but I feel like your accomplishments are diminished when placed against your behavior in recent threads.

You shoulders and arms look pretty much the same. Hell there might be a difference, but the first picture isn’t comparable as it is far away and has different lighting.
How exactly are we supposed to see that you’re leaner when your torso is covered up in both pics?

It is strange having guys less developed spend this much time trying to convince me I haven’t done much in the gym.

More semantics. What “impresses” you is variable between people. I simply said I built more musce than many here. That’s just truth, not me trying to make you or anyone else “inferior”.

LOL. I was in a serious motorcycle accident that would ahve taken most people out of the gym completely.
The fact that you see positive change at all means I worked my ass off to maintain and grow after that happened.

Annnnnnd there you go.
You are under the impression that anybody who disagrees with you is less developed.
The fact of the matter is, most of the people you are slinging shit at are MORE developed than you.

Can you possibly entertain the thought that those of us who you aim this at, echo the exact sentiments towards you? You say some of us here are not impressive, and it is law, yet when we are not impressed by you we are obviously dillusional?

Once again, I am not interested in what “impresses” you.
I said I gained more muscle than many here…you included. That is just truth. No one is degrading you by saying that. No one cares if that “impresses” you.

I know this. As I’ve said, I have been a lurker here for a bit now, and as a result have heard the motorcycle accident story plenty. Again, why even bother to say that the accident would have taken most people out of the gym completely, if not just to portray yourself as more formidable, stronger, better, etc.? What purpose did that statement have? Yes, I will admit that I did see positive changes. I also said, though, that those changes appeared to be minimal. As stated before, your physique is impressive. I just don’t understand why that isn’t enough for you.

…nor would you.
By that logic.[/quote]
But i do care, and this is why I keep posting. I just dont lie about it like you do.

The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped away most of your of what you wrote, because, well … it didn’t really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative flame was pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was hardly effective… Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us “normal” people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget that there are “challenged” persons in this world who find these things to be difficult. If I had known that this was true in your case then I would have never exposed myself to what you wrote. It just wouldn’t have been “right.” Sort of like parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional and social struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.
