Foo - The Incredible Mr. Limpet

Hi, just want to make it official that this is what I'd like to be referred to from now on.

I thought it might have got lost in the other thread.

Thanks for immediately clicking this thread because you care so much what I say.

Mr. Limpet.

P.S. while you are here, please time some time to read my signature.

Lamer

OH GOOD! I've really been hoping for the name "Ben Cousins", and, well, since you won't be using it...

Hello, Newman...

No no no no, It's 'Mr Limpet', not 'Lamer'!! Please get it right!!

Is that a pancake on your head?

Who's Ben Cousins?

How many vents does that Limpet have and how many grams is it? Is there a listing on WeightWeenies, yet?

Please provide a review of the Limpet Lid.

It's threads like this the keep me reading.

I don't know all of the stats, but I DO know that he is wearing it incorrectly:

*ahem*

BWAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

The fact that EURO would go on record requesting to be referred to as not only limp but incredibly limp
gives me pause...

Here's what Christopher Null, at filmcritic.com, had to say about The Incredible Mr. Limpit:

"Suitable only for the very, very young and the massively -- massively -- medicated."

Pretty much hits the nail on the head. http://http://www.advrider.com/forums/images/smilies/wave.gif Hey buddy!

You should be incredibly proud that so many people love and adore you that they want to make unmerciless fun of you. Now it is Mr. Limp-what?
Seriously, I think this is a much better approach than calling everyone "******". Keep it up and someone might start liking you.

Who's Ben Cousins?
Someone who likes to pretend we don't know it's butter and not margarine.

Funniest thread this week.

"Suitable only for the very, very young and the massively -- massively -- medicated."
Comic genious!

Edit: Greetings Mr. Limpet!
Thank-you sir! May I have another?

"I can't believe it's not Ben cousins!"

"I can't believe it's not Ben cousins!"

Who is Ben Cousins and what does he have to do with The Incredible Mr. Limpet??

:roflmao:

"I can't believe it's not Ben cousins!"

So rich, so buttery and look how it melts on toast!

I'm into marine aquariums, so I know what a limpet is. Suprised to see a reference to 'em on a bike forum. Pretty d@mn funny though.

Euro....sorry Mr Limpet is that you in the new avatar.

I feel honored that you not only quote me in your signature - out of context of course - but have also requested we start referring to you by a name I came up with.

I never realized I was worthy of so much of your attention. Thank you Don.

Wow, foo gets all the stinkers, eh?

Rad/55, whats Don have to do with anything?

I Don know

Wow, foo gets all the stinkers, eh?

:roflmao:


Yeah, dump it all in here!

Don Knotts, The Incredible Mr. Limpet, an animated movie from the 60's about a nerdy guy who turns into a fish and defeats the German Navy in World War II. This is rather ironic since Ben Cousins doesn't believe the Americans took any significant role in defeating the Germans.

I can almost hear the grumbling..."damn Yanks...over-paid, over-sexed, and over here!"

Soooo. Excuse me if I have been out of the loop, but why do you want to be called Mr. Limpet? That was one of my favorite movies back in the day.

I feel sorry for Foo having to take ****ty this thread from the road forum.

I never realized I was worthy of so much of your attention. Thank you Don.No problem ZURO/Robert F!

There's a part of me that sometimes wishes I were so bold to establish other identities just to make your life miserable as it obviously works when others do it. But alas, I, unlike you, Mr. Ben Cousins,"Lead Designer for the EyeToy group at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s London Studio", am more than willing to take responsibility, credit and blame for the things I say and write.

RESPONSIBILITY - type that into your often used, but apparently not comprehended Wikipedia.

This thread is so great because hi565 got the wonderful notion to move it over to the FOO section, which is forcing many BF'ers to stray away from the Roadie board to have a go at EURO.

Pretty entertaining!

FOO rules!!

All hail MERTON!!

I love the fact that even after this thead has been foo'd, there are still people taking it seriously.

EURO, you're already a recreation of an annoying individual, but really, trying to live in this gray area between anonymous and genuine just isn't working. Of course, neither was your old plan. And taking Rad's quote out of context for your sig... now there was a brilliant idea. :rolleyes: I've seen better tactics out of a squirrel playing chicken with my front wheel.

Well, I guess he's not going to answer me......oh well, it's not important....

"I've seen better tactics out of a squirrel playing chicken with my front wheel."

Now that's what I call funny! :roflmao:

Yeah....I see the resemblance.

Mr. Limpet,

Are you racing this weekend?

Soooo. Excuse me if I have been out of the loop, but why do you want to be called Mr. Limpet? That was one of my favorite movies back in the day.

In a thread named Race2 in the road cycling forum the following was posted capturing a quote Ben Cousins/Euro made in the www.kingstonwheelers.com forum.


reading some of Ben's...err, Euro's posts on the Wheelers website:

"Knowing he's the expert, I clung onto Thorsten’s back wheel like a limpet"

I believe this to be the first time "limpet" was ever used to describe an admitted act of wheelsucking. Whilst it led to a good chuckle, and the turn of phrase was positively Churchillian, I'm quite hoping this isn't the sign of creeping seafood analogies here at BF. Indeed.

OOOOOkay.... Thank you for the clarification. I think. :D

Siu... this is a Road Forum issue that got "Foo'd" by the mods....

It's made for some funny reading. The original "Race 2" post has devolved into mixed-drink recipes and so forth.

OOOOOkay.... Thank you for the clarification. I think.

Well, you really have to have read the entire Race2 thread and know all about EURO's history in order to fully appreciate the hilarity of this situation here.......but anyway, just take it from all of us who've said it already, it's really really funny.

I never got the Don Knotts connection...now I do!

[QUOTE=BeeTL]I never got the Don Knotts connection...now I do!

There is certainly a striking resemblance between Mr. Knotts and some guy in the Kingston Wheelers...
