Just sayin'

Actually, he's that rare combination of arrogance and ignorance...

No matter how many times, no matter how many people tell him his ceaseless, long winded, "Cliffie" sermons annoy them, and make him look foolish, he's incapable of restraint.

Everytime you THINK he's hit bottom, he'll grab that shovel and start digging...

Here's what I think:

This is an open forum.

If someone only wants comments from people who agree with them, then that person should go start their own forum where they can make their own rules.

In the meantime, the guy can stop pissing into the wind anytime he wants.

I think the OP enjoys asking stupid questions . "How do I talk someone out of riding a bike" and "Why are harleys considered slugs " to name a couple. Not really a question to ask in a harley forum . A lot of his posts seem to be trolling for attention . Kinda like a misbehaving kid who figures any attention is better than no attention.

The scary thing is that he is a senior rider here on the forum. In about 3 months....he'll be elite or something like that by the end of the year.
If I didn't know better, I'd swear he is a Purdue EE or ME, anyone that has ever had to deal with those types would know exactly what I mean...

Wow.... The last thing we need is to be more like Europe and let the government smash us under thier thumb.... CCTV everywhere... Speed Cameras spaced about 5 feet apart and no freedom to exercise any common sense.

CC restrictions are BS, Helmet laws are BS, Seat belt laws are BS....

Yes, he IS an engineer, and yes, we know EXACTLY what you mean...

Out of self-respect, you simply don't.

Researchers looking into the emotional effects of Male Menopause would find a gold mine of data here. As far as confrontation, you just let these individuals relive their youth and respond to those who are serious. You let the 40-somethings sit in front of their computer, making farting sounds with their armpit, while they giggle and laugh hysterically.
but you do suck...
