CAREFUL! We're being "researched"!

[stuntmovie]

I think I mentioned in an earlier posting that one of my family members is a Psychiatrist. When he was a kid we used to call him "Dinkie" because he was the smallest kid in the family, but now that he's all grown up and has become a Psychiatrist (and a former competitive BB) and no one but me still calls him "Dinkie".

I still do refer to him as "Dink" but due to the respect he deserves within his field, I most often refer to him as "Shrink the Dink" and that is fine with him as long as I am the only one who calls him that. (I never call him that in public though. Usually at family dinners it's "Hey, Dink, pass the potatoes!" or "Hey, Dink, ya wanna beer?")

About once a week he holds a poker game for some of his patients and on some occasions I'm  invited because he used to  compete and still enjoys getting updates on various BB topics.

About a year or so ago I was telling these "Poker Nuts" all about the  GetBig board and some of the genuine characters who appeared to be contributing to it during most of their waking hours. I asked them all if they could tell me why anyone who hates the subject of BB so much would spend so much time discussing it and letting it bother them to the point of extremity.

As soon as I said that, everyone stopped playing Poker and listened to the response offered by "Dink" and it soon developed into somewhat of a heated but intelligent discussion which was interesting enough to stop the poker game.

About an hour or so into the discussion one of the guys mentioned that this GetBig Board should be looked at by someone within the psychiatric field and attempt to determine if any conclusions could  be drawn from such a study.

Dink said that it could be of interest to a Psych 101 student and that is what it turned out to  be.

I was just informed about this "year long study/observation" this past week and am hoping that someone will keep me advised about the results, but due to some sort of questionable doctor/patient relationship I don't think that's gonna happen. 

All I presently know is that it was helpful and very interesting and that a few of us might be contacted for further study.

Apparently there are a few of us that definitely need help in the mental department.

Anyone want to step up and admit to that?

I have suspicions on who they may be but I have to include me out even though it's usually the craziest person who least expects it.

 

[QuakerOats]

"suspitions"?

[El_Pajero]

yes very good point QuakerOats. I also doubt if "stuntmovie" prefers the peach over the salami.

Ha! A Sam Goldwynism! You've been in Tinseltown too long, Stunt! 

[QuakerOats]

maybe "stuntmovie" just needs to calm down and not take this all so seriously and when he gets together with his family he can talk about football or the weather like normal people do.

[stuntmovie]

Yea, Quake, you may be right - as opposed to posting on a BB board.

Thanks for the spelling correction.

Yea, Doc, I knew you'd catch that one.

[QuakerOats]

Yea, Quake, you may be right - as opposed to posting on at BB board.

Thanks for the spelling correction.

sorry stud just had to speak the truth, you talk about how people are obsessed by posting on a board a few times yet you're the one talking about the board during family get togethers, who's the obsessed one?

[stuntmovie]

Yea, Quake, that very point was also mentioned during that Poker night conversation.

But it's not that "obsession" so much as the "obsession" some of us seem to have with the hatred of it all.

That was the main topic of interest while I was there.

actually i agree with what you're saying to a certain extent, there are a lot of people here who do seem to hate bodybuilding and it makes me wonder what they're doing here, personally i love bodybuilding and i'm not ashamed to admit it, that's why i come here.

yeah, you'd have to be nuttier than a bag of squirrels to post here all day.



Hey, wait a second...

Hey, wait a second...

I always wonder what percentage of the population are active participants on an internet community of any kind nowadays.   

[boonstack]

if u see a shrink, u need to have your head examined.

[wes]

I know I`m nuts.............got the papers to prove it too!!

I`m sure there are other boards out there with different topics of interest with crazy posters just like here.

Support mental health...........or I`ll kill you.

they dont know if chemical imbalances are the CAUSE of illness or the RESULT.

[Butterbean]

I'd like to know how many researchers performing the study became addicted to getbig 

[JohnnyVegas]

sorry stud just had to speak the truth, you talk about how people are obsessed by posting on a board a few times yet you're the one talking about the board during family get togethers, who's the obsessed one?

Yes...this coming from Squad who posts over 50 times per day-everyday- of the year.

bang!!!

[stuntmovie]

Wes, what kinda papers do you get for being a certified screwball? And what kind of a test do you have to take to get them? Do you have to spend any time studying?

All you have to do is post your pic on GB and you're "certified"!

[NaturalWonder83]

agreed lots of weirdos and loonies on this board

[just_a_pilgrim]

BigBobs definately has a fucking problem trying to be like Nasser.

He dresses the same, puts down Dorian and even just eats junk the same.

Talking shit on a message board is one thing, taking it that step further is scary.

Stunt,

From one Jarhead to another.....

how many times were you told you were crazy for joining the Marines?

[stuntmovie]

Knny, Good question!

Lots of times, but I was one of the craziest guys in my school anyway, so it didn't bother me at all.

Four of us "crazy bastards went down to the recruiters office and signed up after the USMC recruiter told us that we could pick any job in the Corps that we wanted. I forgot my first choice but I ended up as a grunt regardless of my personal desire.

I don't think that they can pull that trick any longer.

Of the four of us who signed up, I was the only one to head off to Quantico and ended up on the team of four running the obstical course for the VIP politicians visiting the base from DC. I ran it so often that I could do it blindfolded and you'd never know when they'd pull you out of ranks or class to run it.

We're planning a trip back to Quantico next summer and will definitely attend the Sunset Parade to see the MC Silent Drill Team once again.  That was one of the major highlights of my DC trip way back then.
