Wait, which: that I retired, or that I started in the first place?

I have personal experience in the ICU and ER with sick and dying children and I still find this tasteless.

Now look. I've eaten a pice of pie.
When we spin the pie again, the area cut out of the volume of the sphere equals fitness.
Re: The couch thread
A couple things.
1) This has nothing in common with Salvador Dali.
2) The children in the wagons are exhibiting symptoms/treatments associated with and bragged about by Crossfit. The kid up front is puking (Pukie!) and the kid in back appears to be on dialysis (Uncle Rhabdo!). It's a macabre homage to Crossfit, not some poignant statement on illness in children.

Re: The couch thread
The future has arrived; another new McBox opened here today. The difference is that the real owner is already an owner of 4-5 franchise gyms. He used a sock puppet to get the affiliation license/agreement/whatever the fuck they call it. He's undercutting existing affiliates by $20-40 for regular members and allowing @fit members access to one of his franchise gyms, 1/3 mile away. He's also teasing his franchise gym members with a very "low" introductory rate of $99/month. He figures that whether the franchise gym feeds the Mcbox or the McBox expands his franchise business, it's a win/win for him. He only needs 125 @fit members and he's already got a pool of >4,000 franchise members.

I think it's best to say it as REEBOK so that their search results keep popping up here. It's all about the googles, man.

I had a little cousin with Luekemia who was at (and died at) one when I was about 8 or 9. I never felt so bad and sad as I did when I was there before he died. That place really fucked me up bad, I remember crying my eyes dry and it taken my father for ever to get me normal. I think I walked around depressed for a few days. If I did not have it before then, I learned what empathy was and what it felt like.
Fuck writting this I can feel it right in the chest like I did then.
I like dark humor and all, shit I played the Meatmen's "Crippple Children Suck" at my first live gig I ever did but this was beyond dark humor and total scumfuck.
Up to now I never hated Glassman or the CF uppe ranks, just thought him a a hypocrite and dangerous to trainees, and many of his followers seemed like Moonies on Warp but I had no hate.
Now I truly hate that motherfucker. I hope someone kills him. Maybe a pissed of ex CF tool he has banished will do it?
Let's all cheer on Gregg's liver failing him or maybe a good, advanced stage testicular cancer.

Not quite.

The only CF related site I've looked at in years was your blog. I lost interest in Glasshole a looooong time ago.

Re: The couch thread
After high school and college, a lot of athletes turn into gear monkey's for whatever sport they choose to spend their money and time on. (Skiers, mtn bikers, hikers, hunters, fishermen, etc etc etc). Shitty athletes believe that their superior gear elevates their eliteness when they are sitting in the bar at the end of the day bullshitting about their adventures. It is incredibly unfortunate that these @fit losers are bragging about lightweight shoes (doesn't matter what fucking shoes you wear for your ground to overhead) tape jobs, (I always tape up when doubleundering) and expensive t-shirts that they rip off as soon as the wad begins.What a duck says wrote:
