Uneed to post these to XFACTOR bro,

I own your soul little man.  hahaahh You can't get me off your mind.

On another note people educate themselves for themselves. I'd say it's important to educate yourself to make more informed decisions, have a better understanding of the world we live, and to open doors career wise for yourself.

are you inferring that "monster81" more than likely dropped out of school at age 13 to cruise the streets in search of musclebear dick to smoke, Xfactor?

I would say that is absolutely a fair assumption SF.  Judging by his spelling and grammatical errors this most likely what happend.

I use to be bullied when I was a freshman in high school. And at times the bullying was very severe....thats the reason why I started lifting...not to get attention but to get stronger so I can defend myself...

In Hawaii, the bigger you are, the more respect you got and the bullies tend to leave you alone but now you got a different group of assholes who want to fight bigger people to prove that they are bad asses

I guarantee, if I went to a high school reunion, Id be able to kick  a whole of of ass now....

For me bodybuilding was a way to defend myself..it wasnt the women that motivated me..that came second...

SWEET!! I started lifting because one day i looked down at my penis and said it is about time i make up for what i lack. I then proceeded to buy a truck with a lift on it, a pitbull, started bodybuilding, and beating up people who couldn't defend themselves. It made me feel tough and good.

Does popping your collar and playing yourself off as a model on a dating site constitute as a "tool".

Yes I've considered it. Learned about it. First procrastinating about it with the typical "some day" attitude. Then seeing guys yo-yo-ing between small turds and close to my size 3 times a year turned me off. Then got turned back on some years ago when meeting Pat Arnold at a function. Last thing you know, I'm 30yo with a good career and a healthy body bigger than average, I don't see the point anymore. Never say never but I don't even plan on competing anymore so why would I? I consider HRT in 15 years. Maybe GH sooner. I've known individuals in their early 50s looking and feeling amazing. It empowers to see it but why risk your health at 25-35 for a plastic trophy?


Exactly.  Alex has the right idea.  At an older age, HRT+ levels might make sense when your natural levels go down and you start looking like shit, but in your 30's, what's the point?  Most serious lifters with decent genetics look and feel better at 180-200 than they would at 240 anyway.

Are they any rich and successful guys that are bodybuilders who juice?  Other then Arnold and those that bodybuilding helped them become successful?

Seems like the desire to want to be huge and ripped is to get more attention, and not about pleasing yourself.

What is wrong with somebody trying to improve their looks to get more attention?  Improving your looks is pleasing yourself.  What hobby is more worthwhile than trying to get bigger and stronger, video games?   It also is more respectable than trying to get attention by getting numerous tattoos and piercings which seems to be the way everybody is trying to stand out these days.

I pretty much agree here, other than the "juicing if you were to compete".  People with that mentality are even worse I feel.  Do it for yourself, not a 2 cent trophy.  If you need to win a show to validate your own achievements, that's just sad.
Not speaking on you, but that mentality many have.

So you think it's more justified to "juice" for "yourself" with no concrete goals other than vanity and "clubbing" with a medium "Hollister" shirt on than setting a goal for yourself and show the end result onstage?

This is complicated. Sometimes I think it's because I'm to egoistic, weak and to much of a coward to ever be anything near a normal person. Now just being a regular person, that takes true mental and spiritual strength. Same as people who are Christians, it must take strength to succumb to something so common as Christianity, a religion that is also viewed by many as something messed up and having so many faults.

I got to be different, and the only thing I can figure in the end it must mean I'm egoistic. Some people think they are special and hot shit for being different, I guess it is a maturity thing? Anyway, my advice is don't think to deep about it, like I have!  :P

Bottom line, we are damaged, weak, egoistic and bad people.

everyone does something for some sort of visibilty or approval of other people.muscleis for bbers, lamborghini for rich people, art for poor people lol jk

but seriously eveyone has their little pleasure that gets attention from others bbing is no different.

honestly i would take looking like a top pro vs driving an expensive car anyday for example. but its all personal preference. not everyone is going to want to or can be jay cutler ron coleman, chris cormie, le priest etc.

why do people buy fancy, fast cars in the city (never breaking 80 for more than a seconds because of traffic)
why do people buy expensive watches when a $5 digital watch is just as usefull
why do people buy fake anything
we could go on and on

on some level human are narcissistic, we all like attention..most of our actions are done for approval..not saying that this is your sole purpose but do deny it would be a lie.

What confuses me is the extremes people go to deny this within themselves. It's who we are, what's the big deal?

I love when GetBiggers get all philosophical and try to explain the meaning of life.  So hilarious

Seriously guys, if you don't want to look like a complete JA, stick with your bread and butter, dick and fart jokes.
