If it does, I will just have to eat 10,000 calories a day to try and get up to 250 to apply to the big guys club. There doesn’t seem to a middle-of-the-road club. Us average people are always discriminated against.[/quote]

You’re out. It’s not our fault you have osteoporosis. Short ALL your life and that’s it.

I’m thinking of amputating my legs at the hip so I can join. I mean, it just sounds like a great group of guys . . .

you did call him out. You said that he probably wasn’t even big. Then after you saw his pictures you said that he didn’t look big. That’s just a fact

The feats are irrelevant. I could post my SATs but it wouldn’t contribute anything.

I don’t understand how you can’t push yourself on the mass end but still bulk. The point of a bulk is to gain mass.

Sarcasm is very hard to discern on the internet, thus the pull up line could have easily been serious, especially since you’ve had a serious tone for nearly all your other posts.

enough of this, everyone in this thread is shitting on you.

Has anyone used Casey Butts mass calculators? They give an estimate of how much lean mass you can carry on your frame at certain BF%s.

WTF are you doing??? Take out the Little or we’ll have every skinny metro bastard trying to join our club. I’m SHORT NOT LITTLE!!! There is a BIG difference. I’m in if you change the name of the gang.

[center][u]The T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses![/center][/u]

Have you been ridiculed for being vertically challenged? Do you get mistaken for a middle-school kid? Is your momma so short she plays handball against a curb? Are you tired of being an arm rest for tall guys to lean on? Do people call you half-pint, sport, midget, dwarf or mini-me?

Are you tired of not being taken seriously because you are below average in height? Are you tired of not being noticed by lucious ladies because they see right over your head?

Then join [u]The T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses![/u] We travel in packs and stick up for each other whenever a short joke is cracked or an injustice takes place.

Whether you’re 5’1" and 150lbs or 5’7" and 225lbs, you can be a member of this prestigious club of short men with big attitudes.

Hi, my name is Nate Dogg. I’m the founder and president of this new T-Nation club. Join me and thousands of other short men in our quest for equality in all aspects of life. We strive for big muscles, good jobs, lots of money, hot women, fast cars and everything else those tall bastards get handed to them every day just because they can see over the dash board better than us!

Join now and choose from one of several special extra-medium t-shirts.

T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses T-shirt 1.

“I’m not short, my face is in the perfect place to eat your pussy standing up!”

T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses T-shirt 2.

Front: "Good things come in small packages…

Back: …My cock looks bigger than someone who is taller than me!

T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses T-shirt 3.

“Baby, it doesn’t matter how short I am or how tall you are when we’re doing the horizontal mambo!”

Ready to join? Sign-up now to be a part of this exclusive club!!!

[i]*Disclaimer: In order to join The T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses, you must have proof that you are 5’7" or less. We are not responsible for any injuries as a result of someone of “average height” trying to join our club. We will, however, be more than happy to smash your knee caps with a sledge hammer so you will be seeing the world while sitting in a wheel chair and being looked down upon by all short men.

P.S. No skinny little guys allowed! Just because you’re short, it doesn’t mean you can join if you don’t lift some weights and pack some muscle onto your chipmunk frame![/i]

There are a lot of pettite women who should wear this.

I should have a shirt that says "Good Thing ! "

Okay but I think you are going to have a pretty short list of members with those rigid requirements.

Can’t I at least be short-listed in case you change the height requirements?

Yea, I agree. The “little” part wasn’t very “PC”. I don’t like being associated with that word.

Nate, I read your “The T-Nation Short Men’s Club of Bad Asses!” post. Much better, IMHO.

I would like to apply. You can find my resume by clicking on my screen name and clicking on “photos”.

Would it be too much to ask to change “short” to “shorter”? I guess I’m pushing it a little, but it’s all relative, and I’m a giant next to a four year old…

Why is it so hard for you to understand that you can be gaining mass, but not giving it 100%. Even though that is my goal, there is a whole lot more I could be doing to achieve it. Which is why what I said makes sense. If I was 100% commited to gaining as much mass as possible I would train more, eat better, and supplement.
I said prox was big, but he had on a shirt, so I had no idea if he was ripped. The way some folks had bulit him up I was honestly expecting a pic of a competitive bodybuilder. Bear in mind, he may be. But the pic he sent did not show a lean ripped dude. Big, yes, but not what I was expecting. If you have had enough of this thread, please stay off of it.
Here is exactly what I said after getting x’s pic…
“X did PM me a pic. He was big albeit, but not impressive. Maybe a little smooth/bloated. Hard to tell, he had his shirt on and has dark skin. Since he chose the pic, I assume he choose his best one. If that is true, I am not “that” impressed. I have no idea about lifts or if the pic was off season/bulkig etc. I will post it and let it be what it is.
EDIT unable to post proffessor x’s pic, not allowed by MOD, makes since. SO I will eave it at that. If you have seen it great, form your won opinion or get on his buddy list.”
If you want to qoute me, at least get it right.

Stay on track people!

You’re pushing it. But maybe I’ll change it to The T-Nation Shorter Men’s Club of Bad Asses just to keep you happy and because you do look like a giant next to a four-year old. Thank goodness for small children!

I’ve reviewed your resume and you are approved.

Welcome aboard! Do you need a step stool to make it over?

Short People
Randy Newman

Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

They got little hands
And little eyes
And they walk around
Tellin’ great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little fett

Well, I don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Round here

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It’s A Wonderful World)

Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
And they stand so low
You got to pick ‘em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That got beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin’ peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They’re gonna get you every time
Well, I don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
'Round here

Now, with the official club song out of the way, Nate nailed something earlier. You damn runts can look down at us guys in wheelchairs… (I’m 6’1" but affectively 4’) Oh, well at least my arms are longer than your legs. Wait… that kills my bench **shakes fist in air **

LOL. No, I have my own fold-out one that I carry with me. It’s great for a little extra GPP, and I never get caught asking someone else to reach something for me.

This “club” is being run by very short-sighted people.

Was that a joke?

You think you’re some kind of funny man? You better watch your mouth, clown. Or we’ll show you pain like you’ve never known was possible!

I was going to ask about paying dues but I might get…“short changed”.
