Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

the ultimate BF insult

I have been called the following (mostly here in the 41)

1. troll
2. retrogrouch
3. elitist
4. obtuse piece of flotsam (I liked this one, except for the Star Trek content)
5. jerk
6. conspiracy theorist
7. insane
8. unhappy
9. grumpy (I wonder where they got that one)
10. one of the "usual suspects".

and more....

I still have yet to decide what the ultimate 41 insult is.

What have you been called and what do you think the ultimate BF insult is?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that insults tend to just blend in with the background radiation around here. Someone is always going to be argumentative about something and take it to the personal attack level.

Although given the near fetishistic love of new technology, I'd say retrogrouch is the worst.

Ultimate insult is just to completely ignore what is said, as in it has so little merit, it's not even worth mocking.

Whenever someone like cdr thinks you are an idiot. If someone as helpful as him has a problem with you then you are hopeless.

I've been called creepy a few times. I didn't think I deserved it. I would sure like to follow those people around for a while and see what they are like.
