Making excuses

[Katman]

your hair can wait, lets go for a ride!

Too late. Soap in my eyes.

The only worth this thread has now is setting up rides for jrandom and BadJelly (ps, can I come!?).

Actually, I think I'll do a 'Badjelly's Inaugural KB Ride' thread in 'Meetings and Events' when the time comes.

And on an interesting sidenote - in the last 24 hours I have received 10 greens and 1 red (but Boob's my Kiwibiker Stalker so his doesn't count ) and there's some interesting names amongst them.

I'm not living in quite the land of delusion that some of you would like to suggest.

I'd suggest that this happens to us all, Katman.

One could be forgiven for suggesting that there are double standards and hypocricy all over KB. I for one have been accused of it. I don't mind, after all, people have a right to tell me what they think of me or what I say in the same way that I have a right to voice my thoughts. It's just a shame that more often than not, the language involved in dressing me down for daring to speak out is usually somewhat lacking and un-constructive.

However, my point is that it is disappointing when people bling you or PM you to say "how right you are" or "good call" or "well said" but do not show those sentiments in the open forum for all to see. Suddenly they disappear into the woodwork or simply lurk as readers. Why on earth would that be I wonder?

Then invariably, maybe to avoid an online spat, the posts in question are PD'd by the mods under the auspices of "don't rock the boat" even though they themselves have agreed with you privately.

Oh if only I were to upload a screen-shot of my User CP.

At the end of the day, life is too short and this is only an internet forum.

Happy Days. See you all in a while. I'm off the UK.

Too late. Soap in my eyes.

Two nuns in the bath.
One asks "Were's the soap?"
The other replies "Yes it does!"

I agree with you asking the tough questions & who gives a shit how you say it, You are less abrasive than the road & far less hard hitting than an oncoming cage.
I dont usually post in these threads because i cant be arsed wading into a thread that is guaranteed to degenerate into name calling & cock measuring, Usually by the same people.

[...] Usually by the same people.

It would be interesting to meet these people at a ride, or for drinkies. I bet they are perfectly nice folks then.

Nice comment there Bob. If I had room, I'd stick it into my signature somehow.

Let me see-"The prick (bit sexest so I'll add bitch in there) didn't see me" this does happen and motorist have stated/admitted the same.

"Bloody patch of diesel" now how does one remain upright on this shit? It doesn't matter what speed you are doing.

"They need to fix that bloody bump in the road" If you've travel enough of this counties back roads you'll have some understanding, but you obviously don't. Even at relatively moderate speeds you can get caught out. You may not live in the land of delusion but have you considered you may be delusional? For example there's a reason for the leveling and resealing of the road between Elsthorpe and Havelock North.

"you weren't there, you don't know what happened" You weren't. This is a fact you can not deny.

Oh and I'm a grumpy cunt in real life.

"If it looks like shit, feels like shit and smells like shit there's probably no need to lick your finger." see my previous post.

[Katman]

he may not totally beleive himself in what he posts half the time

Trust me, I believe in everything I post on matters such as these.

[tri boy]

I wouldn't get to pedantic over the Red/Green bling thing.
Most people arn't interested in rating boring movies or repeated series.
Same with internet threads along the same level.
Youv'e made your safe riding point infinitum. Got anything else to offer?

[MSTRS:Me]

.... Got anything else to offer?

In a word...No.
The opportunities to be a valuable and valued poster on more topics than you could poke a stick at, are endless in KB, but Katman can be summed up by that line in Turn The Page...."...the engine moaning out it's one note song..."

[Kickaha]

What is even more interesting is that these people choose not to support you in the open forums.

Probably because they can't be fucked getting into a online shitfight, I agree with a lot of what he says because I see a lot of people making excuses and blaming everything but themselves when they do fuck up

His delivery leaves a lot to be desired however and he's made to much of a dick of himself in the past for many people to take him seriously

You know, I'm calling you out on this one.

If you never ride with other KBers, you're not a fully-fledged member of the forum, simple as that. I'd say that that's understood well enough around here that's it's more than an unwritten rule.

So I don't ride with KB members so I'm not a fully fledged member? sounds like bullshit to me

[jrandom]

So I don't ride with KB members so I'm not a fully fledged member?

Nonsense! There's hundreds of us who've gotten our jollies from seeing your arse swinging around the outside of that slow cunt scrivy at some racetrack or other.

In my humble opinion, getting out and racing against other KB members for the spectating pleasure of even more KB members is about as fully-fledged as membership gets.



Sidecar racing certainly gets my member going...

Katman I find you a boring bastard with all your holier than thou postings!

You remind me of most of the government department Safety Officers I have known over the years, "chock full of legislative type BS".

Reminds me of the adage: Those that can do, those that can't teach!

True life is not Utopian, life is a risky business, I like taking risks and as a result I fell off my bike on Sunday!

My bike is OK but I am fucked for a while damn it, get a fucking life man! John.

Thats more information than I needed
