Title: 5000 posts? What?
Post by: adidasguy on June 30, 2012, 08:04:35 PM
I know I haven't posted for a few days. Seems like forever. Though I somehow got over the addiction to gsTwins and started to not want to post. Strange. I still read posts. I better get back to posting. I could never equal Yama for post-whoring, as he's the king of post whores.

Was I missed for the past few days?

You see, I have to decide what I should do for posting #5000. It should be memorable or unique. I still don't know what to do.

Maybe if someone posted that they really missed me, I would come up with an idea for my 5000thg posting.
Seems that not being here - no one noticed.

Does that mean no one cares? No one wondered where I was? Or people knew I was in that hell-hole of Reno and everyone assumed I would be a drunken gambler?

What should I do for number 5000?

I could start some random thoughts and start a real cat fight:

1. Petcocks are good. Usually someone just ran out of gas or disconnected the vacuum line.
2. Cats can be indoors, outdoors or both.
3. Front fork springs are crap, but the rear shock is fine.
4. Changing the rear shock is a fad and many new owners do it for no known reason other than they hear others did it - even before they know what the rear shock is like.
5. I think chopped up tails can be really fugley unless done right.
6. Harleys are a noisy POS.
7. There is no better bike than the GS500.
8. ....however I like the older small tanks over the newer big ones.
9. Why do cell phone companies charge for text messages when they require a miniscule amount of bandwidth compared to the unlimited long distance, internet browsing and other stuff on your phone that eats up all the bandwidth?
10. Why does it cost $29.95 to connect my computer to my phone so it can browse the internet? I used to be able to use my older phones as a modem for free. I can get internet access for $9.95 a month. Since my phone can access the internet, then why can't I connect my computer to it?
11. What's the deal with Shell advertising "Nitrogen enriched" gas? Air is 80% nitrogen and nitrogen is an inert gas?
12. When will people realize ethanol is a joke and you use as much oil to make it as you get out of it (trucking it, farm tractors, processing plants, etc.)?  If it really makes sense, why not require 100% ethanol be used to make ethanol?
13. Why do we import oil at the same time we export domestic oil?
14. We propose democracy in other countries and electing leaders with one vote per person - like we do. WTF? Really? We do that? No we don't - we have the "Electoral College" that actually elects the president. So why don't we propose that to other countries? Do what I say, not what we actually do?

Oh, well. I don't know what to do for a 5000th posting.

Give me another day and I'll figure it out.

I do have to say that I love posting and all the people. I think it took 4599 posts for people to understand my strange sense of humor. Things never get understood properly when just written. Think of how many ways the word f^%k  or f%$king can be used - just by changing the inflection when you say it? (Hey - looks like the profanity filter has been updated? What about fucker? I guess that one's still good to use  :icon_lol:)

It is fun here at gsTwins.


.....holy crap! I just did my 5000th! Sheitz! Time to post whore my way to 6000.

I assume you either have an iPhone or Android phone? I don't know much about iPhones but I do know if you have an Android phone, you can root it, and get that capability for free. As far as iPhones are concerned...I'm sure something similar can be accomplished.

I'm not paying Sprint $20 a month or whatever absurd price it is just so I can occasionally connect my laptop or other device to my phone WHICH HAS UNLIMITED DATA ANYWAY which I HAVE to pay a PREMIUM for ANYWAY.

I'm glad that I could be the instigator for #2.  That was my post  :thumb:

And yes you were missed.  Anyone who can ship a GS500 Axle on Friday from Seattle, WA only to have it arrive on Monday morning in Cincinnati, OH is worthy of:  :bowdown: any day!

Every time I go to Nevada, I am awake close to 24 hours a day, am so jacked up on 5 hour energy, only to come home and people were like "Jester, You were gone?"

Glad to have you back.

For the record, I assumed you were a drunken gambler and that's why you had been quiet.

Not to mention "It's out of gas"  Don't know how many times I have said that one.
