Still, that's just wrong, Qech: You can't post in a nerdy political form and have muscles. That's a paradox!
lmao
My little brother was benching 380lbs when he was in high school and got a wrestling scholarship to a top tier college. He was ranked third in the Nation in the 160lb class and has an IQ of 178. It's not really a paradox, it's simply a matter of genetics.
Personally though, I'd much rather spend my time gaining as much knowledge as I can of this world so that I might be better able to apply it. I've never really had any aspiration to be a meathead so I'm more than happy in continuing to stick to my books.

He's actually not nearly as big as one would imagine.
I have a close friend who has some powerlifting records for his weight class and he's just a beast. He had a video on his MySpace page of him benching 640 and he's only 5'7" tall but weighs like 350lbs.

Ummm no, he's full of shit. That's 20 pounds off the US Junior National Record, which was a fluke in and of itself (just look at the weight class above).
lol, seriously, don't take a word of what this guy says as fact.
To bench 380 at 160 pounds you would have to be so muscle-bound that I guarantee you wouldn't have the flexibility or agility needed to wrestle my grandmother, much less Division I collegiate competition.

Father, daughter have child together
A SOUTH Australian father and daughter have revealed they are a couple, and have had a child together.
John and Jenny Deaves reunited 30 years after Mr Deaves separated from Jenny's mother.
Jenny was 31 and just two weeks after meeting, father and daughter had sex.
"John and I are in this relationship as consenting adults," Mrs Deaves told the Nine Network's 60 Minutes tonight.
"We are just asking for a little bit of respect and understanding."
Their nine-month-old daughter Celeste, shown on TV, appears fit and healthy.
Mrs Deaves said soon after reuniting with her father she began to see him as a man first and her father second.
"I was looking at him, sort of going, oh, he's not too bad," she said.
"Like you might look at a man across the bar at a nightclub."
Mrs Deaves brought two children, Samantha and Alex, into the relationship after splitting from her former partner.
Mr Deaves admitted that he "initially" thought having sex with his daughter was wrong.
"Emotions take over, as people no doubt realise, there are times during your life where emotions do rule the heart, it rules the head," he said.
"I knew it was illegal, of course I knew it was illegal but you know, so what."
Mrs Deaves said the physical relationship with her father was like "a sexual relationship with any other man".
For Mr Deaves the sexual relationship was "absolutely fantastic".
A South Australian police media spokesman said "the couple is being monitored". >LINK<

I love how Leb still responds to all of my posts even though he knows that I've had him on ignore for many months now.
My bro wrestled at that weight. It doesn't mean that it was natural.
Wrestlers gain and then drop weight on a regular basis.
It's cool, though, because I've been writing a journal that I'm going to incorporate into a book and when it's finally published I think that the last laugh here is definitely going to be mine

I'm familiar with how wrestling works. That's how I know you're full of shit. Though it doesn't take an argument about wrestling for me to realize that.
You are completely incapable of having an intellectually honest argument. That's part of the reason you put people on ignore - if you don't agree with them, it's better to filter out their incompatible views. You claim that you wish more people would debate you on issues here, though as Lira pointed out, you twist and maneuver out of any arguments you get yourself into. No, you're far more content to conduct drive-by's on each and every thread here, proliferating quotes without context and youtube videos without documentation of fact as your main points. When confronted, you put people on ignore or throw out ad hominems. In other words, you suck ass at having a discussion. I am literally starting to laugh out loud a little bit any time you claim how intellectually superior you are to the rest of PDD. It's absurd - you can't even conduct an argument, much less win one.
It must be easy to cast off dissenting opinions as irrelevant... and then turn around and claim that's what everyone else is doing to you. The fact is, we gave you a chance to have an intellectually frank and open discussion on issues, and we've all grown tired of your childish behavior.
That's great that you're writing a book. Good for you. I'll make sure not to buy it.
And since this is the chillout thread, I'll back off - but I do want to say that every time you come back for a week, this place goes to shit - craptastic threads proliferated over the front page, flame-wars in every single one, ad hominems being flung willy-nilly at some of our more respected members, and stupid asinine claims about your superior intelligence or intellectual curiosity. Do you really think that's because of everyone else? You're the changing variable in this equation.

One has to appreciate the herd mentality for the fact that they're often packed together so tightly that they each have their heads so close to the next one's butt that they can't even see what's really in front of them, let alone what lies beyond their little flock.
All in all, I'd hate to be just another follower and that's why I've always been more than happy to blaze my own path.

Hey Shaolin, I didn't want to post another off-topic comment in that 'Turn OFF your TV' thread (the trolls have already had their way with it) so I'm copying my response to you here.

I actually had some evil b*tch who I met on MySpace fly in from Chicago to see me a couple of years ago and I think she was trying to get me to kill myself (COINTELPRO style?) after she had pretty much convinced me that we were soulmates (or somerthing to that effect) and then after spending a weekend in a hotel room with her she flew back and pulled a quick 180 on me. She got really nasty so I found her boyfriend on MySpace, told him that she was cheating on him and then things got even more ugly. lol, oops. The poor guy didn't even believe me at first when I told him, or at least that's the way that he made it appear.
Here's pretty much how it began:
(just one of a few hundred messages from her)
and here's how it ended:
and the entire time I had no idea that she even had a gun.
