It has to do with the fact that you actually asked if you should remove your tires that you already managed to install to put talcum powder on them. Thinking for yourself really isn't that hard, I swear.
Also for the record, I'm not the only one who mentioned this thread being dumb.
The problem was that the bead wouldn't come out of the center of the rim, and properly seat itself. Thus when you kept saying, "use talc powder", I didn't know what you were suggesting. To me there were two possiblities: 1) start over: remove tire, apply rim tape and powder and try again. 2) Try and put powder in the rim so that the bead will come out of the center and seat properly. Now based off your vague suggestion, how in the world was I supposed to "think" about which possible way was right? I've never done this before.
Keep telling yourself anything you want that will make you feel better about belittling someone else. From my experience in life, people who treat others rudely and promote negativity have their own deep rooted issues; whether or not they are consciously aware of it is another thing.
Also for the record, I realize there are other people here like yourself who enjoy flexing their internet muscles and come into threads simply to antagonize others and act all high and mighty. But honestly, if a thread is stupid to you, why even waste a second of your time to post about it? Ask yourself that. And for the record I've seen posts dating back to 2010, of you acting this way to many other people. It's kinda a bummer, especially because it makes me want to avoid this forum like the plague. I hope the moderators get the hint someday.
CLOSE THIS THREAD PLEASE, I WON'T BE COMING HERE FOR HELP ANYMORE.
