Default Rant on!

maybe it's because i'm bored.

maybe it's because i'm monday.

or maybe it's because this **** legitimately pisses me off...

but what the f*ck is with people who include a large, full framed picture attachment of their bike in each and every one of their posts?

i'm not talking about signature pictures, i rather like signature pictures. i identify many folks on the forum by their sig picture, and they can be helpful when someone is asking a tech question and you can see "oh, they have a 20xx superwidestreetroadultra glidebobbones"

i'm talking about the douche nozzles who take the time to go into photobucket or wherever else they host this ONE picture of their motorcycle and copy/paste the img code each and every time they post.

i know a handful of names off the top of my head that do this, but i won't call anyone out.

BUT IT CHAPS MY ***!

figure out how to make a signature you forum illiterate tools. it's like family friends that include pictures of their kids and dog every time they send a card to say hi.

i don't care what your little snot noses look like, same as i don't care what they got on their report card last semester. your bike isn't that important to me, so stop throwing in a freebie every time you post.

rant off!

Listen up you self centered pile of steaming arrogance.

When you care about family and friends for who they are, and not what you can leach off of them, then you care about the things that matter to them.

So if I send you a christmas card with a pic of my 4 kids and my ratty little dog, you're supposed to write back "cute kids" or some other crap like that. Why? Because I gave enough of a crap about your sorry *** to send you a card. Don't just open it up and look for your twenty dollar bill like some drunken welfare generation hosebag.

As far as the giant pics in every post, I'm with ya man. I hate those douche bags too.

i've never leeched off of my family (that's how it's spelled by the way) and i'd never lie and tell you your children are cute.

and if you don't send the 20, how am i supposed to re-gift $5 to each of your 4 children?

"Listen up you self centered pile of steaming arrogance."

Having read and been entertained by Toastman's posts for a couple of years, I just have to subscribe to this thread..
