What is that?

[Angus12]

Upset with people and accuses them of wanting attention. Makes post to bring attention.

Makes complete sense.

Napolean Syndrome...

Except Napolean actually kicked butt and took names. Before he got to believing his own press clippings, anyway.

Riding a bike or wearing shorts in bad weather is a lot further down the tough guy list. Especially as affectations.

Makes complete sense.

Posting in an Off Topic section of a Sports forum doesn't force the issue down anyone's throats either.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

But...what about mandles ?

Ok.. mandles suck.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

The problem with society ??? LOL

Anyway, this is the issue, .. he is not more comfortable in shorts.

He knows it's cold outside, .. he knows he will be out in that cold for a couple of hours, .. he knows he does not want to be cold because the brought a blanket, hooded swearshirt, gloves, and a toboggan hat.

And yet he still wears shorts.

If it is that cold out, and you brought all of that stuff to keep you warm, .. why wear shorts? Makes no sense.

He is trying to prove something to somebody.

I don't get it.

Why does it have to make sense to you?

Like i said, maybe he's just comfortable in the shorts and chooses to bring a blanket to keep his legs warm while he's sitting around rather than wearing jeans or sweatpants or whatever others may choose to keep their legs warm.

Why does it matter at all to you? It shouldn't bother you.

Makes complete sense.

So everyone who makes a post is bringing attention to themself?

Makes complete nonsense.

LOL, .. it doesn't make sense to me, it doesn't matter to me, and it doesn't bother me.

Now you can relax.

Why does my opinion matter at all to you? It shouldn't bother you.

It doesn't matter to you.. yet it bothered you enough to make you come on to an internet forum and complain about it.

Gotcha..

Live and let live, that's motto

As long as they don't bother me or isn't hurting anyone else, it doesn't matter what they do.

 

[Fletch]

Whatever, brah. When I'm not benching 450, I'm sucking down protein and working on my tan. I like to grunt when I get my swell on so everyone KNOWS how buff and tan I am.

Is that you ThreeSport78?

Gotcha..

That's right, it doesn't matter to me, .. nor bother me. I wasn't complaining, I only raised the question, "what is that, .. what makes people do stuff like that."

If I saw someone with buckets on their feet for shoes and a flower pot on their head for a hat, it wouldn't matter to me or bother me. Even though I might mention seeing that on an internet forum.

Because raising a topic on a message board in this day and age is really no big deal. I would think that with 13,000+ posts here that you would have noticed that by now.

(I will also keep in mind that you are one of those that like wearing shorts in the winter too, lol)

So again, it doesn't bother you at all and doesn't matter to you one bit, yet you took attention to it enough that you had to ask a message board why people were so stupid?

You did say that you though it was stupid and that he was trying to be "tough".. don't deny you had a reason for posting this now, lol.

But yea.. it didn't mean anything to you when you saw it right? You barely noticed it at all, that's why you wrote in to a message forum asking why people can be so stupid?

Carry on then, bud..

You do know that anyone can just ask a question out of curiosity, don't you? It does not have to be something that matters a great deal to them, or something that bothers them either.

People simply ask questions about things that they wonder about, even if it is not something that is all that important to them.

I saw something that I thought was peculiar, .. so I asked what others thought of it. That is not something that is earth shattering to happen on a message board.

Not sure why you are having such a hard time understanding that.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

So you assume they're trying to be tough because they choose to do things that you imagine would make them feel physically uncomfortable? I guess any time I see someone jogging I'll yell out my car window, "Hey, tough guy, you know you wanna be driving!" And regarding the shorts guy, I know some people have health issues where they can't wear jeans or constrictive clothes.

..and if you were just asking a question and looking for objective responses, that would be a good explination.

However, you clearly had an agenda when asking the question, obvious from one of your first replies in this thread, where you thought the guy was being stupid and just trying to act tough.

You weren't asking a question just out of general curiousity.. you wanted people to gossip with and rag on people with because you've already judged this guy for yourself and again, thought he was "stupid" and "tryin to be a tough guy".

 

[jnday]

Is that what that is, .. tough? Or is that just plain stupid?

Tough is working two jobs to support a family, .. tough is taking care of elderly parents, .. tough is being a single parent, .. tough is battling a disease or handicap, .. tough is winning a battle with addiction, .. tough is raising a special needs child.

Riding a motorcycle when it is 17 degress is voluntary and stupid, .. not tough.

This is not a good reply, it is a great reply. I am guilty of wearing shorts most if the year, but I have my limits. When it gets below 45 degrees, the shorts have to go.

I do think it is stupid and I do think he is trying to prove something, ... but it does not bother me, which is what you asked me. I actually think it is quite laughable.

I was curious, .. I have my opinion, .. I wanted others response's as well, and now I have yours.

Thanks for participating.

Why does my opinion matter at all to you? It shouldn't bother you.

If you would have brought up the sagging pants issue, would you be accused of attention seeking behavior? You really got the natives upset.

 

[jnday]

I don't know what you have against tough guys. Do you even lift, bro?

Does lifting make you tough?

Just the fact that you think he's trying to prove something, simply because he wears shorts at times that you would not, shows just how much it "doesn't bother you at all".

lol

If only we were worried about our own actions and behaviors as much as we were worried about why others do the things they do..

I can picture you there in the bleachers at a high school football game, scanning the crowd the whole time:

"Mehhh, why's that guy wearing that?! Why does that lady have that many children with her?! Why doesn't that guy shave that beard?! Why doesn't that lady shave that beard?! What is wrong with everybody here?!

*Whistle blows in the distance*

"What? How could the game be over already?!"
