For the ersatz-conservative turnips on this board who have a hard time comprehending the importance of democratic direct action: http://cdn.theatlantic.com/static/mt/assets/science/assets_c/2011/10/OWSvsTP-thumb-615x336-66095.jpg "The greatest threat to our economy is neither corporations nor ...

I'm not a democrat and have not ever supported a democratic candidate for office. Why do you feel compelled to humiliate yourself like this? You're still mad about the historic analysis of Jewry I made and it's clouding your already anemic judgment. You're worse than a democrat. You're an MSNBC-wat...

No, you explain it to me. You've clearly indicated your superior grasp of the subject, so I await your exposition. No, I've demonstrated you're a democrat party shill, who repeats talking points like "the unregulated free market caused this." I'm not falling for stupid internet debate tec...

Read a book. "The Big Short" would be a good starting point.

Instead of letting the free market punish the shit out of those involved, the USA tax payer came to rescue. Illogical. It was unregulated free market which created this situation. The cure for poison is not more poison, no matter how much it would serve your ideological needs. You really have no id...

not my field of expertise, and the law is definitely still in flux on this shit, and this in no way is legal advice but is instead for educational/entertainment/go fuck yourself purposes, but once she sent those pictures out to her friends, she's "published" them herself and has very littl...

just done did it

heh. I am teh retarded.

From Caviston's post and this one, the pattern seems to be appearing that THE BEST PEOPLE IN @F are as awesome at some events as a 14-15 year old, or as a first/second year child gymNAHST. Or an 80 year old man. That's great stuff Quack. Where'd you even find the @fit throwing distances? Their resu...

The info raptor is pointing out on the @fitter rowing times just confirms what we've known for a while -- @fitters are only good at @fit. If their games included a couple of widely- used athletic activities -- I dunno, a mile run, or a long jump, or a 1 max rep bench -- they'd be exposed, so they h...

On my harddrive I found the sceenshot I took back then at the height mutual hysterics: http://i.imgur.com/CiOL2.jpg I don't know shit about rowing or rowing times, but the rest of that list is pretty gawdamn ridiculous. He's supposed to be some kind of fitness badass but it takes him 3:32 to do 100...

Asstro.jpg That guy on the left looks like he should be practicing what he preaches. Unless, of course, he is being personally trained by Couch, then he meets the standards for an @fit executive. Edit: What is with these fucking knee socks ? @sstro is just working on that hourglass figure. someone ...

There's simply no way of following where anyone is in the event, and having heats made it even worse. I know I was belittling the conspiracy theories, but I can't help but wonder if they made every event's "scoring" hide their actual physical abilities. Looking at the scores, there's no w...

Unless you've got family or friends in the gaymes, it is just not an interesting spectator event. Boring content with little drama. Comparisons to the X Games are bogus because at least they have spectacular aerials and huge crash potential. Tried to stay interested after my neighbor was eliminated...

That was no surprise. They made that known in advance when they explained how many exercisers would be cut and after which rounds. If an affiliate claims not to have known that, then they're; A. Weren't paying attention B. Stupid. C. Both it's the same story as all the fucktards freaking out when t...

an actual comment: After watching event 1 I think that our collective crossfit focus has shifted too much towards strength and neglected aerobic and endurance training. Almost all of the top performers that we have enjoyed watching over the last few years have added significant muscle mass since 200...

Given the energy and time wasted on this thread, the whole "why are you idiots actually watching that" ship seems to have sailed some time ago. Let's face it, whether we hate them or are just amused by them, we're all entertained by the hijinks of couch's minions.

looks like streaming is working for me. holy crap there were some sloppy "cleans" in the womens heat. how do they not explode their elbows with that shit? and has anyone seen castro? with that hair, those skinny legs, and the man boobs he's growing, he's the most feminine person on the fie...

ESPN 3, also known as not even TV, just the interwebz. and taped at that. this shitshow won't be on any actual TV channels.

lulz: 1550 pacific coast highway is in Venice, not Santa Monica, and it's at least a mile inland from the beach. i predict a clusterfuck.

I'm predicting some serious shoulder/elbow blow-outs because of the softball toss. ^this^ hell, how many of us have fucked up our elbows throwing the football around as we get older, and we grew up doing it? the ocean swim really is going to be interesting. i'm actually in LA tomorrow afternoon any...

Interesting thought. Don't know what it's like on the West coast but where I am, Asians dominate the swimming lanes. whities dominate swimming on the west coast, bro. and at the nationals level. you gotta get down to average/low D-1 before you see many chinamen. kinnalike how the mediocre D-1 baske...
