Interesting, but... sadly wrong at every turn. Assumptions = failure; assumptions about another's state of mind, intent, or purpose = glorious failure, going down in flames.
Thanks for taking the Uncle Josh's cheeseball bait though.
You're one smart catfish!
I'm sorry, did I break a rule you had in your brain for what someone is supposed to do at a certain age?
(look at them all scrambling to establish superiority, Cletus... ain't they a hoot?)
How do you keep missing the point, Dave?
You act like I do not know that I am 50 and that people like you are younger than me, and have had different experiences -- fewer, and overall more referent to juvenilia.
You're not really telling me anything new here. And so you're not really...
Actually, I'm not "hating" on anything.
And the idea that "target audiences" are the key is the most absurd thing I've heard ever. I would have said the same about Porter's videos if I were 18. The idea that "marketing" is everything... this is where you, and others who argue/think like you...
Yep. Different torsional stiffnesses for different firmnesses of course and different speeds in-course. Different tunes to edges for different courses.
A bit too techie for my tastes though. I prefer the approach of get to know one bike, one pair of skis, and know them well. However, I...
Don't be ridiculous. You are not the universal arbiter of what's funny. And this forum (RM DH) is not the universe, either.
A lot of what others find funny here, I find stupid. Does that mean they're absolutely not funny, or just that I don't find them funny?
You're a bit too categorical...
FAIL!
I grew up in DC but left in 1986...oops...I mean 1994 (left in 86 for grad school, came back 91-94 for a brief period working in DC), so my sense of the place is frozen in time. I'm glad you're up on where men go trolling for other men though! Probably a valuable geographic detail in...
Pslide,
Positivity has its place, as does stoke.
People who use either one to mask bad ideas... tools!
I'm sure 3 Minute Gaps has some bizarre type of positive stoke that just doesn't click for me.
On the other hand, every one of Alex Rankin's vids has taught me sheet-tons about how to ride...
most excellent reply!
and I'm not joking here.
pretty sure your race coaches would have told you that every turn is drifty, that the ski is never 100% engaged like a railroad and a train -- right?
and that lateral deviations in the drift are lost fractions of seconds, right?
lost time is...
1 hour north of the Beltway, Frederick County.
Not exactly DC, even by Metro Regional Planning standards.
However it is the only place within an hour of DC that has enough rocks that a fully rigid 20" isn't enough bike.
Sorry, but in a thread called "3-minute Unfunny Jokes," Peebs is as relevant as anything you could imagine.
The title of this thread was chosen intentionally. Those who want serious discussion of weighty issues should beg off and go troll Pinkbike.
I would only say that you're still on the other side of whatever age it will hit you. Hits most male athletes between 35 and 40.
Gobble it up and use it while you can. I can assure you those things I described will be your reality sooner than you want, if not sooner than you expect.
If I said that was Irony, I'd congratulate you on your relevance.
But I never said that was irony. Not once.
Irony is pretty much a literary version of "oh crap, that just backfired on me." What it is NOT is such crap as wearing girl jeans, or drinking Peebs when you're a trustafarian.
Pay attention EVIL! That was the ONLY place I said they were really analogous.
I didn't say the body movements were identical -- though they are more similar than different, and torso squareness discipline and steady noggin are key in both. In contrast, you can drive a race car with your...
Really?
You're faster than people in their late teens/early 20s?
And you heal faster?
And your reflexes are faster now?
Gosh. They should put you in the Smithsonian.
Am I gonna see you out at Kolob Canyon in the summer of 2012? I bet you throw down bigger than Zink!
