This is the best post I've read here in a long time. There are several around here trying to kill IGx and gaining ground.Dr. Agkistrodon wrote:I want to approach this from another angle.
IGx is the only Internet forum I bother with, for 3 reasons:
1. There is a broad spectrum of useful training advice and information here, tempered with Truthiness and a critical eye.
2. I like pretty-much all the folks here and I enjoy reading the colorful things they say, even when HH spouts all his Zionist propaganda (and I hope the fact that I typed that last bit with my tongue firmly planted in-cheek comes through -more on this in a minute).
3. This forum is devoid of the whining and bitching that I have observed on countless other forums, and I don't consider Timmay's original post "whining."
I noticed something disturbing a while ago, long after I escaped the Nuremburg Trials by the skin of my teeth, with the help of the United States Government, and shortly before I signed-up here on IGx-
"THE OUTSIDER's INNER-CIRCLE" that forums had become. Meaning- every forum I went to seemed like a haven for losers, neck-beards, radical feminists and so-called "Enlightened Males," ALL of whom were probably picked last for kickball and dodgeball when they were kids, and grew up into overly-sensitive, PC Police who sought refuge in these little corners of the Web, and began policing literally everything other folks said from the safety of their keyboards.
I hated it. Hated the PC love-fest. Hated the "watch your language" warnings. Hated the whining.
The forums had turned into support groups for motherfuckers who couldn't make a life choice and live it, without an audience and a group of people to back them up with kind words whenever family or friends "just can't understand it."
Fuck that.
It was depressing and intolerable.
So I crash-landed here and made a lot of good friends. Learned a lot about training, made many positive changes to my training based on information the folks here kindly made available to me (and I appreciate your time, thank you!), and I've enjoyed the riotous laughter that the banter gives me here in the Free Speech forum.
I like that NOTHING is above the eye of criticism, here. EVEN OUR OWN VIEWS. And I like that everything is up for being called-out and I appreciate that even when it is, it can be debated about in this manner, as opposed to talks of banning people, "can't we all just get along" bullshit, and the like.
And as it pertains to my tongue in-cheek humor, my persona here, that of an ex-NAZI scientist who's left National Socialism behind in-favor of making $$$Big Motherfucking Dollars$$$ in a Capitalist economy manufacturing and selling Legit Dick Steroids, with some old habits dying hard, well, it's just in the name of silliness. It's a goof. How could it not be? And I like the fact that I can do this shit here, because it affords me the ability to make a mockery of things that I think are bullshit- like the supplement industry at-large, and the backhanded, double-dealing nature of the Federal Government, too, in a way that -hopefully- brings folks the laughs.
As to the reality of me, we all know that I don't have a problem with ANYBODY, save for jackasses who act ignorant, and extremist Muslims.
And I think this forum ought to carry on as it has been, because it's the only place on the Net of it's kind, and the culture that we have here can't be allowed to die.
Long live us PCphobics!!
