Piss off, OP. Next up go make fun of women riders being slower than the guys or something ...

There is a lot more to the picture then just a guy that would be medically classified as obese. I personally found the smile funny, and reminded of a commercial I saw a couple years ago about Jan’s training regime.

If you can’t help but be negative, and are a Nazi of political correctness, then don’t bother wasting Bike Forums bandwidth with your posts.

As opposed to the 1000's of other threads with such drivel?
And I say ask the OP what the intention was.
I see a man enjoying his day, but what is "caption contest funny" about that?

I AM the OP, and I previously said I found his smile funny, (reminded of commercial I once saw.. would post link, but I wouldn't want to be harassed for posting anything else politically incorrect), and it was rather intriguing to see local riders being able to race with Pro's.

As for drivel, then why do you frequent Bike Forums? Is it to flex your internet muscle by making ignorant comments? If you can't find anything in the picture worth mentioning then don't post. Simple as that.

Do you think before you type? The person being an ass is you. You attack someone that you do not know, for something that you didn't fully understand. Any indignation is being caused by yourself and your own misguided political correctness.

If you want to agree on disagreeing about what we find funny, then so be it. But I am sick and tired of posters on BF’s that constantly shoot other peoples posts, questions, comments etc. down before they even bother to see where the writer is coming from.

When have we as a society become so inconsiderate to others that people have made it a hobby to troll around forums making snide remarks that do not in any way aide a conversation. But only cause negative dialogue to develop.

If you do not like a threads topic or discussion then close the window and move on. Nothing is forcing you to input your ignorant comments but your own self-righteous thinking that you are creating a better society. When in actuality you are not only preventing harmonious discussion but escalating arguments.

The only one being an ass is the person that starts, and makes comments that are directed in a negative nature to someone else. Criticism is one thing, but then offer it with intelligence then rather telling someone to “piss off”.
