For once I'm actually in agreement with the Traitor in Chief

[The Scott]

Of course I pay him no attention. 
He's a bitter, angry loser.
I really thought my reference to Wayne Tracker would have been a clue but apparently I get again over estimated our resident Trumptards

You have not the mental "wallet" to pay attention to Bosco cartoons you churlish oaf, let alone the musings of myself, twatling.  Again, here or in the real world outside this little Matrix you are no match for even such as I.

Hurts does it not? Go and curl into your fecal position, sucking your thumb because you cannot reach your wiener.  Yours is a pathetic IOL.

[Primemuscle]

In the case of Straw, the pure unadulterated satisfaction of knowing I made light of a fucking moron that feeeeeeeeeeeeels he is better than people like me, i.e., Conservatives.

With my mental limitations, I have been belittled all my life.   Add to that my physical handicap and well...A sense of humor really helps! My family raised me to deal with it and accept the truth that I am not a smart person.  But my mom  (throughout my life) and John taught to express myself with a sense of style and humor.

I do laugh at myself.  How could I not?  I was very skinny in my youth (at 10 I was 4' 11" and weighed 45 lbs.) and when I began weight training it was not to beat up those that picked on me but rather to make them think more than twice about even trying to harm me.

It worked.  As I grew, I never physically picked on anyone but I have put myself between those that would harm another that was so much smaller than them.  Here in the Matrix, I use words.  My vocabulary is nowhere near as vast as John's or Khan's but my wit is nigh on second to none.  My mother would read (and take the time to explain) Jonathan Swift to me.  That alone should tell you something of my upbringing.

Enough of my dross. 

Definitely not dross. I am surprised at our similarities. Seems your mom was more uplifting than mine. No one has ever tried to harm me...not sure why.

When teachers would tell my mother that my lack of intelligence was simply a matter of "it is, what it is", she would later take me aside and tell her young son, "No.  It is what you make of it.  That is what life is.  What you  make of it."

Not everyone succeeds but that doesn't mean it (life) sucks.

LOL

Nothing you or anyone else says "hurts"

WTF is wrong with you

Every weird thing you write is a projection of your own inner dialogue (not sure you're even aware how obvious this is to everyone here)

I understand you're angry bitter, self loathing cripple (physically, mentally and emotionally)  which I why I mostly just feel sorry for you

My step-father graduated (quit school) in the 8th grade. His family was dirt poor. He was the youngest of 11 kids. By Getbig standards, he was a midget at 5' 5". He was an intelligent, well read person who owned his own business, at which he was relatively successful. He always said that life is what you make of it.

Hurts, huh?

Of course in your case I would think that the worst part of it all is having no one who is genuinely happy for you, not even yourself.  As for feeling "sorry"?

I never feel sorry for those who self-inflict such unwarranted hatred and misery upon their own life.   Like you.

I truly hope you don't live in the USA. You don't deserve to.  Others here do.  You do not. 

[Primemuscle]

....sucking your thumb because you cannot reach your wiener....

If I could suck my own wiener, it would save me a lot of trouble looking for someone to do it for me. I tried. But I am not flexible enough. Shit!

To be honest, I do not think you would do that.  Neither do I think that of Straw, although I do think he is a disgusting cretin and hates America and all she stands for.
 

But I am prone to colorful, descriptive and imaginative writing.  A wordsmith?  Not at all...

I own a home in the beautiful bay area (San Jose) and life is great

that's one reason (among many) that I don't care what angry bitter old men such as yourself rant about on the internet (funny how idiots like you never share their angry idiotic ramblings in person)

workouts are going great (minor shoulder pain is gone) and of course leg traings has been fantastic

how about you?

Are you even able to get to the gym or do you just spend you day sitting in your soiled Depends ranting to strangers on the interweb

I have no reason to actually believe anything you say.  That is the result of what you are here.

We are different, you and I.  I would NEVER do such a thing.  Nope. The sixties mumbo-jumbo mantra of "if it feels good, do it" NEVER affected me.  It's said that we are animals and to an extent we are, but I am not controlled by anything so base as "if it feels good, do it".

What was that old comedy routine by Sam Kinison (?) about every man having gay fantasies and he said he was home one day going through all his "fantasies" cuz if that one was in there, he wanted it out!

Cool, we can catch a workout when I come up that way this summer.

My brother lives in that area.  I'll let you guys know the next time I'm out there and we'll make it a threesome. Only homo if you want it to be.

Let's do it.

[The Scott]

Let's do it.

AbrahamG is a good man and we have "spoken" via PM and I think well of him.  He is one worth meeting. Straw?  Fuck that. He and I will never get along.  We are too different and I am the same in the real world as I am here so why would I want to meet someone that is so diametrically opposed to everything I hold dear and true?

I would not. 

I am back to being semi-human anyway.  I am having mobility issues.  That's a stupid way of saying I cannot walk very well and tend to fall a lot.  I've seen worse  in my PT sessions so again, I am thankful.  But I do not wish to shake hands with Straw.

You I would gladly meet one day and I still have the stuff for you and 1 from John's friends.  I do not think I will ever get 1's stuff to him.  Who knows. I will not impose myself upon anyone.

Enough rambling. I have to take the crap they gave me.  Goodnight, brother!

I appreciate the kind words.  As always, I hope you find yourself feeling better soon.

sure thing if you want to follow my workout
Everything I do is pretty much antagonistic supersets for example incline barbell press alternated with front chins, decline dumbell press alternated with some kind of rowing movement etc..
same goes for legs .,..every quad movement alternated with a hamstring movement
Move as fast as possible, no chit chat

                                           try this quad set.one set each one right after the other for 5 circuits. chins followed by dips, followed by lat machine pulldowns followed by parallel bar floor push ups go for 15 reps each set. report back.

sounds like a good conditioning workout but I don't do dips anymore.  Too hard on my shoulders but I used to love alternating dips and chins.  I also used to love dips with added weight.  Those days are over. I stopped doing any kind of dumbell fly for the same reason.  My shoulders feel better today than they have in a long time.  I still lower the bar on barbell inclines down to my neck even though I know I should stop at about my chin.  I like to keep my reps between 6 and 10 for most upper body movements except for delts/traps and then I'll go up to 10- 15.
