Wasting YOUR life on Getbig

[liberalismo]

you're 105?

I was guessing that you were in your early 20s.

The fact that you're 35 frightens me and makes me have less confidence for the future of society.

He has a point Squad, totally irrelevant to the point.

what is the point? that because a person spends a couple of hours browsing the internet per day that they're a shut-in who never goes outside, never goes to the store, never works, never works out, never fuccks girls, etc? he's exaggerating by a bit wouldn't you say?

3 hours a day for getbig.com is madness.

how many people watch 2-3 hours of TV a day? or 2-3 hours reading a newspaper per day? do those people never get outside or have any life other than tjose activities?

2-3 hours watching television? Probably not a good idea. Unless it's a movie.


2-3 hours a day reading a newspaper? Spending this long reading a paper would be odd. Not many reads newspapers for 3 hours a day, but guess what? Even if they did, it would still be VASTLY better than 3 hours a day on getbig.com. Newspaper has facts and information, getbig.com has bullshit and delusion.

I have lifted weights most of my life and I still continue to frequently lift weights. I'm very fit for my age, very low bodyfat.

I spend less than 15 minutes a day on getbig when I do go on getbig.

Old man math..... just like he used to be "stronger than we were" when he was our age, they tend to add poundages to their lifts meanwhile having the structure of a tall 7th grade girl basketball player.

This post is about YOU. Yes, YOU who are reading this.

You joined Getbig originally because you were interested in bodybuilding and thought that posting on this board would help you in some way. However after a long time here, you spend more time on getbig than you ever have in the gym. You have deluded yourself into thinking that posting on a bodybuilding board (regardless of the post topics) somehow aids in your bodybuilding. You have convinced yourself that somehow surrounding yourself with bodybuilding related discussions, and perhaps figures in the industry, this would somehow translate into an improved physique.

However after a few months or years of posting on getbig, amassing several thousand posts or an average post count of 10 or 15 or 30 posts per day, the only thing that you have to show for your time on getbig.com is a flabby gut and an underdeveloped physique thanks to sitting at the computer for hours a day. You argue about the physique differences between Ronnie Coleman and other bodybuilders, you argue with professional bodybuilders and "call them out" on irrelevant and immature things, you spend hours discussing the recent popular culture events even if they aren't related to bodybuilding. You make up stories about outrageous gym events or imaginary sexual exploits, you have the physique that even you would make fun of if it belonged to someone else, you refuse to post your own pictures yet insult the accomplishments of those who do. You post vile and inconsiderate comments, sexually vulgar comments, offensive comments that insult people all while your fat ass is plopped down safe behind your computer. You are wasting your life on a message board and you have nothing positive to show for it.


Spending time on the internet is not bad, if done productively and smart it can be good. Spending more than 30 minutes a day on getbig, however, is harmful to your life. So you're at a fork in the road. You have the option of taking 2 paths, one will lead to the same old repetitive and numbing life on the internet where you do not grow mentally or physically and the other path will lead to..Well that's up to you!

Path 1.
You will no doubt try to argue with me, insult me in childish and immature ways, post various vile or immature photographs, claim that I am someone else, refuse to read the post because it has too many words (further proof that spending hours a day here rots your brain), claim that I "Meltdown" or even insinuate that somehow I am a homosexual. But in the end, you will still be here on getbig wasting your life away, and will immediately go back to commenting about the most recent competition of half naked oiled up men on stage, or the absurdity of other getbig members, or the misgivings of various celebrities, or other irrelevant and brain numbing life wasting topics. You might even post in agreement, and paradoxically go back to the same pointless routine that is a dead end road.


Path 2
Or maybe you will realize that I might be onto something, and without even making a dull retort or nonsensical reply, you will shut your computer down, and do something positive with your life. Perhaps you will meet someone new, learn something new, do something outdoors in the fresh air, accomplish something or help someone out who is in need. No matter if you fail, at least you will be trying, and you will know this and soon you will be very glad that you did not take path 1.

Great post loaded with truth. I personally wasted a lot of time on here arguing for stupid shit.

I've also "met" some very nice people I would never have otherwise.

Like the Cack, all in moderation won't hurt too much.

I'm actually old enough to remember when computers weren't even known about.

Most of you aren't even old enough to remember when Internet wasn't popular.
