 |
You want my spot? You callin' me out? |

Darn. I was looking forward to that.  Maybe we could just call biting, pinching, and hair-pulling as the only moves?

I'm not sure i do. I think i might have to stop running for a few months so i can concentrate on cracking the top 50 before my competitor.  |
Try balancing swimming, biking, and running and trying to crack the top 50.............the ironman was nothing compared to this!!!

Yep. And the irritant factor is exceptionally high over there, thanks to a select few.
I never posted much over there to begin with, and can't even remember the last time I did.

Be honest - that is sometimes true here, too.
I finally left there ironically because of one individual in particular who came here later. We're now good buddies. I have made a lot of good, REAL friends through here - people have opened up their hearts, homes, and families to me, met me for races and the occasional  , and the genuine, heartfelt support is unsurpassed. The advice I solicit is always quickly and energetically given. I only go over there for the log, racing together, and basic training (when a PM here doesn't answer my questions). If you can overlook the bullsh!t that sometimes occurs, this can be a real great, super fub place to kill some time during your workday.

Yeah, that would be ME! I grew up a long time ago and crossed into the light a couple of months ago.
I was Just Alia.

It can be a great place to kill some time when you're not at work too.

 ..not as old as Genie, Liam or Keith.. but I was on the kicksports.com train a few stops outta the station. Then came "the merge" and a whole new direction was underway. I still log into some of the forums to lend a hand, but riff-raff is where I lounge around and poke fun at urbanites

I totally represent that statement.
I joined there during Kick, didn't post much, but I've been here since day 1. I only have a log over there now as I have low blood pressure and I like to keep it that way.

OK, let's rock. Understood, though - no moves Shelfie would be proud to use, K?

So no kidney punches, clothesline tackles, eye-poking or turning the dogs loose?
You're on.

It is, but I think the community here has a better handle on working things out. I've been on the sidelines when things have gotten testy. If I want to bicker with someone, I can pick up my phone and call any number of insurance adjustors or lawyers who would love nothing better.
I can't recall being even slightly irritated with anyone in RR. Even with you over the manboob/headcheese thing.
