  1. Please would you could you see your way clear to using one of your vast array of witty and
    epigrammatic put-downs? I relish the prospect with a quivering heart: should you not do this
    gratuitously, just name a subject about which you wish to be embarrassingly incorrect. That should
    engender sufficient frustration for the insult you direct at me to be authentic.

    In fact, to save time you do not need to name a subject: all subjects meet the criteria.

    I am calling you a liar.

    Your reaction here (and elsewhere) is completely out of character with the person you claim to be.
    You act more like a student that has recently acquired Usenet access (and I won't go down the road
    of the other attributes). You were angry and adolescent from your first article until this one. I
    don't care if you grow up or not, but please don't think that you are fooling anyone.

    Keep putting yourself out there as a target, or go away. It is your decision. Try doing it with a
    smile though.

    That is all for now.

    Dumbass -

    OK.

    Thanks again, for being stupid enough to be ripped off by Bianchi. That [censored] frame you bought cost
    about $30 in material and labor, with maybe another $30 for painting and shipping. The many Euros
    they made off that sucker deal undoubtedly went a long way towards treating us bike racing fans to
    some bodacious summer entertainment.

    What would this summer's TdF have been like without Jan Ullrich?

    Thanks to Bianchi, but thanks more to you, The Enabler. Us bike racing fans here at rbr
    are grateful.

    You know, Kurgan is not alone in his application of that salutation. But I would never use it. No,
    no, not me. I would never call you a dumbass.

    I'd call you a *NAZI* dumbass.

    Little Nick,

    This is so disappointing. I asked to be called Dumbass and you were very obliging but did not quite
    manage it. "Liar" is nice though: it has an uncanny ring to it. Oooh!

    I do hope the "for now" does not last too long.

    Well Kurgie,

    That was a pathetic and predictable reply. But we are getting somewhere: you at RBR do agree that
    Bianchi "rip off" people. Would you put that on your site?

    Kisses

  7. What are you trying to do with this post? Since it has nothing to do with bike racing, or even
    bikes, and your previous post about your broken frame seems to have run it's course so I don't
    understand what you are trying to achieve with this post.

    I guess that you are trying to start a confrontation of some kind, but that seems to be a total
    waste of your time. Don't you have anything more productive to do with your time?

    I should state that I wasn't against you in the Bianchis debate as I don't claim to understand EU
    consumer laws.

    That's nice Bob. Why NAZI in particular?

    You are a little off topic.

    Dumbass -

    When I buy a lightweight frame, I consider less reliability as something that comes with the
    territory.

    Can't have the best performance (lightness) and the best reliability in the same frame. The two
    qualities are not compatible. Racing bikes are skewed towards performance (lightness) because that
    is what the customers demand. If you want reliability, buy a non-racing commuting bike. Those are
    heavy and designed to last.

    You, and many other members, have a tendency to be a bit caustic but most move on other topics
    on other days. Justin seems be at another level. I hope that he is OK, and finds what he is
    looking for.

    As is popular to say:

    price - performance - reliability

    pick any two

    Is this lewis fellow arroon canninnoo in disguise?

    Across the globe there are people that got the reference to Godwin's Law. But you missed it.

    Now why do you think that would be? I'll give you a hint...

    Au Contraire, Mike.

    Justin appears to be getting exactly that which he currently seeks from Il Signore Gringioni, or at
    least an unreasonable approximation thereof.

    I think not, only because AAron seemed to learn a bit about how things worked before he want AWOL.
    IOW, they have lots of personality traits in common, but this one seems too gullible at this point
    (I know, as ridiculous as that sounds).
