Tip of the hat: RELoad. My top tube pad just got here. 19 inches of custom goodness. Only took a few days to get here, too. So, thank you Mr. Burns. It's eeeexcellent.

Wag of the finger: Trackstar. We had a little screenprinting deal going on for a t-shirt I designed. I appreciate their doing it, but I haven't had an update in months. So Brad, what's going on?

Just some praise to RELoad. And trying to get Trackstar to respond to me (which they did). And then it turned into a Stephen Colbert fan club.

"wag of the finger"? that's gay. don't ever say that again. and while we're on the subject i saw someone write "hammies" for hamstrings. this is also highly gay. avoid these locutions.

thanks! :)

wangster! duder! i'm just sayin'!! jeez. ya gotta admit it's gay. "fixies" for fixed gear borders on brokeback territory, but longtime usage has made it a 'fixture' (get it? i'm so funny!! :D ) of the language. we really should though avoid the others i mentioned. really.

"wag of the finger"? "hammies"? definitely gay. use your ears, man!

thanks! :)

Hey guess what? Shut the **** up!

i'm just tellin' ya like it is! there're enough gay words in bikin'--"blinkies", "hammies" (though i ran across that on a running website and promptly shut that ***** down and was thanked for it), etc. we shouldn't let this "wag of the finger" thing get away from us is all i'm sayin'! we got us an image to project and protect. dude, if you're gonna swill cheap beer and have tats and wear chains and *****, ya gotta stay away from gay locutions. it waters down the brand!

thanks!

then by all means use your words! everyone gets all het up by the word "gay". why? some words and phrases are intrinsically gay sounding. it is what it is. sheesh!! :)

What are you in the seventh grade? If you're seriously so worried about seeming "gay" you should probably go hang out on footballforums.net or something. 90% of the **** we talk about here probably seems gay to someone. So what? The only reason to worry about seeming gay is if you're worried that you are gay. Which of course brings us back to the age old question: WTF is wrong with being gay?

matt! calm down. maybe adam is right! there should be an icon that represents "tongue in cheek" or "just having fun". sorry ya'll!! didn't mean to bug ya!! :)
