Chances are slim he comes here so here is what happened lol.
Guy came with his girlfriend and he had his back up against the wall with these York Elite Bumper Plates I was selling for $2.25/lb.
He haggled a little with me and asked to double check with his girlfriend in the other room.
She came in and looked at them and said "You do what you want, its your money"
He then replies "See these are rubber, I can use these on the kitchen tile and they wont crack the floor"
It took every ounce of my soul not to tell him anything but I wasnt gonna let $680 slip through my fingers.
I was literally laughing in my head at the thought of him doing dead lifts in his kitchen.s
I did mention it wouldn't hurt to put some foam pads under them (for added protection) lol. That made me feel better

I think I figured this thread out. It was started by the moderators using a bogus OP. The purpose is to see how many putdowns and insults it could generate, given a fairly mild and inoffensive opening post, but by a non-"regular". Given the robust response, I think the moderators are pleased, but every once in a while you've got to do a forum health check.

Sorry, I should have know better than to comment on an insult/putdown party. Glad to see, from NM's post, that the party is still going strong.
I just looked at about 50 of "Bruh's" posts, and for the life of me I can't see where he doesn't fit right in. Let's face it NM, you are a designated hater (DH), along with a few others posting on this thread, but people seem to treat you nicely, regardless of that thankless job. Calling me an idiot and clueless I suppose is part of your DH duties and I can understand that. By the way you forgot to neg me. You are falling behind two of your DH compatriots who were quite prompt with their negs.
Word of advice. stay away from that phrase "stupid posts get stupid answers". Some of those "stupid answers" are the very best the posters can come up with, they may be offended, you know, "stupid is as stupid does".
Anyway, happy lifting.Last edited by thegoldfinger; 03-21-2015 at 08:36 PM. Reason: spelling

^^^^^^^^^
The regulars are willing to help those that show some general respect. The OP has proven to be an asshat on several occasions. You should probably lurk a little more before drawing conclusions. I will be happy to send you a few reps when you show that you can function in a respectable manner in this section.[]---[] Equipment crew member #51 []---[]

If the regulars didn't react the way they do, the forum would be full of threads like this one. I much prefer the current method.
