People here bash other sites (coughpinkbikecough), and have specific examples of things they don't like about the site.... recent specific examples.

Obviously they still visit those other sites...

And sometimes I feel like PMing them and telling them to get back to the Monkey. Kinda like when your mom catches you doing something wrong and drags you back home by your ear.

Not me - I think I am the next sh** because I dry humped a panther tonight on a ride. :think:

There is something to be said for listening until you understand the culture, or what passes for it.

The wok/fire extinguisher/microwave is from an old thread of RIP's that I think you could find if you searched for it. [Edit: here it is: http://www.ridemonkey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116703&highlight=wok] It centered on refusing to discuss whatever he first posted about.

Now that was a hilarious thread. I don't think anyone ever did find out what kind of fork he put on his bike. :think:

some people (read: I) post in this thread because it's really funny, even though I dont understand most of the jokes going on. I have a wok. It's black. Only one microwave, and I drew a picture of a fire extinguisher just to complete the triad of required goods for a bike picture.

some people need some icecream

Yeah, I always thought that was funny, that some people only go to one forum. Wierd...

1. Someone doesn't know how to spell 'observation'.

2. The majority of people that only post in the DH forum know what kind of useless blabber goes on in here. The lounge is only good for those VERY slow days at work, other than that, you'll only find me in the DH and VA forums.

meh.

just found another observation...lately some members will post something as fact and offer no reasons or info to back it up. It's either that or they talk aboout something they have no real knowledge of...I just don't get it...If I don't know about something I just STFU....D
