Or, try using one of these to avoid your puerile use of foul language in
both your title and your post. Think about your audience for a moment
and what their age, gender, and sensitivity might be. Then go back to
thinking about how cool you appear by using foul langauge in a family
oriented forum.

It's probably useless to repeat oneself to the completely oblivious and

Where did he swear in his post? "WTF" is certainly not a swear word. It
could mean "what the freak" just as easilly and anyone who reads it at
as more grown up version already swears and isn't being shown anything
new.

Anyway, go to a bike shop and get a crank puller, or possibly borrow
one of theirs.

I had the exact same problem wheni tried to replace my lx pedals with
new ones and i tightened them instead of loosening them off but I kept
twisting them thinking they might had had some rust on them and turns
out i stripped the pedal and the crank so i had to buy new cranks and I
couldnt get the old crank off so i justtook it up to the bike shop and
they took both cranks off and put the new cranks and pedals on for 8
bucks

I tried everything to get the crank off I hammered and pulled while
hammering and got someone else to pull while i hammered but just gave
up

As usual, I'm with Harper on this one
This is a family forum.
There are people less than 10 on here
It doesn't offend me, but it DOES offend others.
Just be careful

You are saying this despite the fact that you stereotype people by age
and gender in your post. Sorry, but I just hate censorship. I don't
think Obscured should have to censor himself. [censored] is a word, and if
we use it more it won't be taboo. When I was growing up ass, [censored], and
[censored] were considered pretty taboo, but now you can use them anywhere.

And those words are frequently used when articulation is not available
as an option. This seems to be the norm rather than the exception now.
I personally detest censorship. I respect self control. The difference
is glaring.

Nope, it was said he swears in his thread title and post, and I just
pointed out he did not swear in his post. (but he did in his thread
title) Although apparently "WTF" was originally spelled out but was
edited before I saw it so the whole agrument is moot anyway.

This thread has 'already been done'
(http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46008) and I made my
opinion on swear words pretty clear there. I'll summerize for the rest
of the group:

There is nothing wrong with swearing. The idea that some words are
"bad" and others are "good" even if they have the same meaning is
archiac that type of thinking belongs among flat earthers, not educated
people. That being said I do understand that is offends some people so
I try not to use those words in mixed company even if I think it's
silly. It's simply the evolution of the language and I'll be very
happy when children aren't raised to be afraid of certain words. The
entire problem of swearing ONLY exists because some people say it's a
problem. It's an invented ailment.

Don't want to go blind? Don't stare at the sun. Don't want children
to say "bad" words? Don't define any words as "bad."

Yes, I realize that you didn't mean me specifically and take no offense.
I've met alot of young riders that I wouldn't want reading that on this
forum just because you're writing what you're thinking or because
you're writing before you're thinking.

One using proper language for the audience is not censoring. The
audience here is not you and a few of your closest buddies, but it's an
international community of unicyclists of all ages, cultures, etc.

Censorship would be if this kind of language were to continue and I had
to play the parent role and clean it up... we don't want that and it'd
go against my ideals. So please think of who is going to read your post
before you post and then after knowing your audience express yourself
in the best way that you can for that audience.
