This thread is most likely a trolling thread as usual.
Guy in the pics probably competed already. Idea is probably to get a bunch of negative evaluations and then post contest pics. That's my guess  :D

If you take into account all the pros and amateurs combined, how many bbers are like dexter? There’s only one in the history of this thong war

Wow, you missed the point completely. Is it really that obtuse? The main point was that it is not all about "just the plastic trophy". Dexter was just one example. He would be lifting weights and juicing anyway like so many other people. Except he gets paid for it.  People from all walks of life do things, commit to achievements, and are glad when they get recognized for it with medals and trophies. When my brother was promoted to Colonel it was such a proud day for all of us in his family, his friends, and the people that he worked with. You think anybody gave a second thought to how much his medal and stripe were worth monetarily. Just like how proud I would be every time I was promoted with a new color belt when I trained in Jiu-Jitsu. I never thought all those years of training were for what that belt cost. It was for what it represented. Haven't you won or achieve anything in life that you were recognized for? Did you do it for the money?

Reread my last paragraph. It's not the medal or trophy in and of itself, it's what it represents. Just hard to believe that I have to explain this to anybody.

I disagree.  It's not that hard to believe.  ;D

Good point.

An Olympic Gold Medal, is just six grams of real gold. Definitely not worth being a champion. You can look back on your life and brag to your grandchildren that you could have won an Olympic Gold but didn't want to because the cost of the medal wasn't worth it.

That's one not for the record books.

There are more important things than money I agree. It's like saying a Force Recon, Seal or a Ranger isn't paid much so it's not an accomplishment.  

Regarding does he have the potential to compete, damn right he does.  Everything is there. He just has to up the dose to do it.  If he wants to risk health to compete more power to him.

Q: Why does a man train 6 days a week, take harmful drugs, and spend thousands of dollars to win a plastic trophy?

A: Because he can.

Is "it" obtuse? I am not entirely sure you are using the word obtuse correctly here.

Dear getbig brothers, hope everyone stay home and safe.

Since we are at this critical moment, I have more time in my hand, I'm thinking about  to start my diet and prepare for a show.

Here are some recent pics of myself, what do you getbig coaches, gurus, competitors and bodybuilding veterans think of my physique? do you think I have potential to compete? I'm more towards to do classic physique.

Wish everyone healthy and safe.

Thank you all!


You appear to have more than enough muscle to compete, but it all depends on the level to which you aspire.  With your arms alone, if you got truly ripped, you should destroy on the local level.  Beyond that?  My inner Lonnie Teper would whine that you should "strip" (or was it "peel"?  I have a hard time keeping my Schmoeisms right) and show your whole physique.

However, that sounds gay, so I suggest you just diet down and do a local contest.  See how you do and take it from there ;)

I meant, and should have said, "Are you being obtuse?" Often people here, like joswift, like to play dumb just to start an argument. Of course, they just may actually be dumb.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/obtuse

obtuse adjective
 
formal
stupid and slow to understand, or unwilling to try to understand.

Example: The answer's obvious - or are you being deliberately obtuse?

1. Can’t see your legs, are you men’s bikini?
2. more upper pec development
3. Good arms, okay Delts could use more pop
4. Back?  Does it exist? 

A lot unanswered questions here.  Verdict for now = no;

Not surprising.  If I could figure out how to post pictures I would demolish this kid even in my early 20s before any muscle maturity hit lol

Just click on "Additional Options" and then "Choose files" then it will take you to your files where your saved pictures are. They just have to jpg and not too large. Every pic I take on my phone I have to resize to be able to post it here because they are too large.

Why we don't have bidets here in this country is something I don't understand. I can't believe people actually think TP alone does the job. I always have those flushable wipes at the ready and I always carry a pack with me.

No skidmarks for me -- ever!
