Dude…….so true?

A lotta humor and a lotta of truth. Of course I see a lot of myself in more than one of the classes. Well, if I'm honest . . .

I love this. They missed my category…expert on all things in life, respect my superior intelligence.

Haven't seen one of these in a long time for some reason...we're way overdue. Isn't anyone ready to go out in a blaze of glory?

We can all think of at least a few more. People are vast and various. Most of us don't stick to only one profile. Mr. Sunshine can hit some dark chords if you read all his posts. Opinionated folks have mysterious lapses of open mindedness. And so on. But this short essay hits a lot of the highlights for sure.

There are also people who have no sense of humor and cannot handle even the smallest amount of ball busting. I am not talking about mean ball busting but friendly humorous ball busting.

OK, we don't have naked picture posters as it's against forum rules, but we have a small handful of guys who will post about farts, shit, buggery, etc. with no segue at all.

You mean like the ones that can't let two threads go by without talking about sex?

 

[jpmcwjr]

Kinda!

I feel this thread warming up

Thankfully I work in my own enclosed office and can guffaw in privacy.

@jpmcwjr You're right about the naked women but we do have plenty of 'Pipe Porn' on the forum!

 

[monty55]

Oh, so true. That list is spot on...

But I for one am quite pleased that this forum in particular doesn't have a lot of that stuff. Sure, there are a few that approach certain aspects of forum members behavior on that list, but by and large I'm not seeing the majority of that stuff on this forum.

So kudo's to Pipesmagazine and the forum members... IMHO

That's a funny list. I see myself in one of those, definitely!
