is mrmark harrassing anyone else?

[BoneCrusher]

i hung out here about a year before i really started to get in shape. i found this place because i googled fitness and bodybuilding. i think you have to have some want to better yourself fitness wise to even be here to begin with. at first i just hung out had fun and saw what a lot of other people were doing, how they were eating etc. in the past 2 1/2 years i have lost a lot of weight and am in better shape than i was 15 years ago. my diet is nothing like it was when i first joined, in fact a lot of those foods don't even appeal to me anymore. i think it's wrong to make people think they need to be fitness fanatics to be here. if you are even considering a change for the better you belong here.

Well done on the changes LW ... but I never implied or expressed anything about the need to be a fanatic. I did say outright a person should be traveling down the road to a healthier existence in their own way somehow, but I never implied fanaticism was needed to hit the submit button. I said that because this is a fitness forum, not myspace.

You are an example of this stuff working by osmosis. You hung around here racking up the post count as you conversed with people you liked and this stuff rubbed off on ya. You got healthier, and prolly as the mom of the house the rest of your crew are getting a little nudge in the same direction. Good times ...

That doesn't change the basic function of IM. It is a fitness site. I came here thinking I was a strong assed mofo just ready for the juice. I found out I didn't know jack shit. By IM standards I'm still not ready for the juice yet. I'm stronger than I've ever been in my life, but ... maybe next year. My point is, this is a fitness site. The reason for being here should be about getting healthy first and all the yakity-yak second. But ... I'm an opinionated dickhead sometimes. What do I know?

I still say I respect that you are indefatigable in your defense of your daughter's right to post here in an unmolested way.

Question ... all this back and forth. Did SYN ever confront MRMARK about his transgressions? She has shown that she can talk smack. Did she burn the guy?

i think he burned himself.

i encouraged Tesla to join here cuz there are some really great people here and i found a lot of inspiration and information here that led to some pretty nice changes in my life. she has expressed some dissatisfaction with her body and osmosis is exactly what happened to me here. she will pick up a lot better things yakity yaking to this crowd than on myspace

It's one thing to be different. It's another thing to be different and show contempt towards those who don't understand why. If you know you are different why is it such a shocker when someone calls you different?

if he had said ''i don't understand the big deal about getting peircings'' or ''why do you want a big hunk of steel sticking out of your face'' i don't care if he doesn't understand it or not, if he's looking for answers to the question of why then the question of why should've been asked first instead of the imedieate 'that looks retarded' people don't like things they don't understand, it's the same as being gay or porti rican, but that doesn't give them the right to be assholes about it. and where he ignorently commented on more than just the peircings, it's obvious i was the target, not my face holes.
i like being different. and i like being recognized for being different. but recognizing someone for being different is completely different than insulting them for it.

I replied to his comments and told him to get a life. i didn't bother waisting the time to message him. and although i can talk smack when i feel the need to [and oh yes i can give it better than i get it ] i never once insulted him, or spoke to him prior to his display of childish animosity.
it'd be like some random person walking up to you and jacking you in the nuts for no reason at all.

I just look at it as a means for attention. This shit never lasts into adulthood. And if it does, by then you know your problems are real.


In any case, those proportions are correct, emo, freaks, gothic, it NEVER lasts. Its nothing more than a fad, a gimic, a movie of the week. If I had a kid that wanted to dress like the crow, Id be embarrassed, but if I couldnt stop my kid, Id let them run with it...cuz theyll come out of it in due time.

If they dont, I will have run out of all the effort to point them in the right way and just wont care.

 

[Blooming Lotus]

I guess its just not needed. Its nothing hurtful, but why even try to be a dick? Hell you obviously dont even know how to be a dick mark......(Kinda lame dont ya think?)

That's exactly how I'm seeing it. I think it's outling a whole new standard of relating. Those things are his opinion and he is entitled to give it, but it's alll personal attack comments with 2 cents of an opinion that makes him rude and judgemental like anyone even carres what negative shit he comes up with like it matters or meands anything ..let alone constructive.. Personally if that was myself receiving the comments I would stop communication with the person if I could, although stay on the forum anyway, and thenn besides minimising direct contact and responses to aanything they say, I would try to be nice.. whilst.. with as little todo as I could manage ..not talking to them or replying to their content where-ever possible.. because assholes like that probably don't have too many real friends.. and he's probably only an asshole because of some whole other kettle of self-ignorant cluelessness...aww.

It iis annoying. On those that don't see it.. hear that they are probably ppl who do that... hard to be around ppl when they're doing that and relax when it's constantly directly at yourself... behaviour problems are like that though.

I think the whole abuse thing comes with the territory of the goth/emo culture, but that doesnt make it right.

I went through the whole goth thing in my early teens, and was often shouted at just walking around with my friends, or on my own. Hell, i had rocks thrown at me the one time, which was a step too far so i punched that motherfucker out and laughed as i watched his friend desert him and hot foot it out of there.

Any kind of abuse is a pathetic thing, but sometimes people need to be more thick skinned and learn to move on. If these idiots see its not phasing you, and you give back all that they give you, theyll soon get the message and fuck off.

This thread is ridiculous. This is what i've got from this.....

Mark is a loser for writing unwarranted comments.

Syn has heard worse at school, and said herself she has thick skin.

LW, is perfectly understood for being protective, but come on, no-one exactly got shot. The comments were pretty -no- extremely, lame.

Sorry, but I'm with Repro on this.

 

[SYN]

it does come with the territory, and that's why most hardcore kids keep to themselves. which makes those who look down on us even more pathetic, because who the hell are we hurting by being ourselves? the only people we hurt are each other and that's all fun and games (see also slap stick tattooing). the hardcore scene is like a family for every kid that's never fit in anywhere else, and it's all beautifuly bassed around music. weather it's kids in bands or kids aspiring to be in bands or kids just supporting their friends bands and trying to get up in the industry. it's a network, a sense of belonging. it's a home. it's something people outside the so called 'fad' don't get it. but when your in it and you actually live it, it's beautiful. even if it ment being accepted by the general population i wouldn't change teams. i wouldn't be a prep or anything like that for any amount of friends or popularity.

i'm not sure if emo or whatever will last but i like my old "hippy" friends a lot more than the ones that stayed children into adulthood. and i know a few "granolas" that fad lasted... and the "rockers" yea there's none of those around anymore. everyone at ozzfest is 16. goth has been around since '79 n it's still going strong.

I hate negative comments in someone's gallery. Back when I was a Mod, I used to delete them. What is funny is that it is usually by people who don't post alot. They just smart off in the gallery.

 

[AKIRA]

Its just something you can predict 100 miles away. You might be wrong here and there but for the most part, you can tell if something is just a phase.

Even fashion..

Bell bottoms? Overall with 1 strap? How about wearing jeans backwards? yeah taht shit is all gone.

Today? You got assholes wearing rock star glasses, collars are up, jeans with flip flops, PINK SHIRTS... How about girls wearing those ugly ass "pregnant shirts?" Or the spandex worn underneath skirts? The shirts with the wide belts that go across the tummy? Those will all be gone. So why buy that shit now?

Take a look at James Dean or Marlon Brando... their fashions still work today. You know why? Cuz its fucking simple. If it isnt broken, dont fix it.

This emo shit is just a cry for attention. Ive seen some ridiculous shit at my store that makes me wonder if today's generation is getting laid. A 6ft boy with tight, faded black jeans with a rhinestone belt? Jesus. Along with a 2 size too small T-shirt to show off those 8 inch guns? The shirt is also short enough to expose the waistline of the tight faded jeans. The hair is black or mixed with either a wild due or a shaggy shitcut. Black framed glasses with non-prescription lens. Pale. 130lbs.

Sorry..and I dont mean to be cocky, but 10 times out of 10, my generation would kick the shit out of, fuck more girls than, and get hired more times than today's generation.

I'll say one thing for you Witch - always the voice of reason, perched right down the middle of the fence. Must be a Dutch thing.......

It's a good trait.

Heh, I'm definitely a rationalist at heart. It sometimes clashes with more emotional people though, especially on touchy subjects.

please do. i'm not sure what's up with this guy but there is nothing helpful or harmless about it. it's disturbing and reeks of the mentality that women are objects. there is something very creepy about any guy that thinks it's ok to pick on a girl like that. date rapist? mr. rohypnol? i bet he has a few serious issues.

Ok, what mark said wasn't nice, but now you're seriously overreacting.

IM WITH YOU MAN!

I hate the "fashion" of today. And its MY generation...

I wear the same thing my Dad wore when he was my age to be honest. Plain tshirts/shirts, leather jackets, jeans, boots. Simple, comfortable, and looks fucking great. Plus its inexpensive, and wont look stupid in 30 years when im older because its already fucking 30 years old!

Hell, i actually have 3 of my old man's jackets in my wardrobe that i wear often. Theyre fucking wrecked .

Best fucking post ever, AKIRA.

 

[Little Wing]

bell bottoms actually did make a comeback. i walked around in shock for months saying "i can't believe bell bottoms are in again"

if it were purely a way to dress then yea these things would likely just die out but they aren't. the hippies had peace and love and they still believe in that. these things come with a philosophy, a sound that becomes a person's preference, and art. i'm a jeans and white top girl. levi's please and sandals or boots depending on the season. i'm seriously not a goth by any means but some of the music from back then is fucking amazing. check out my myspace profile song www.myspace.com/vanitys_baby . ZOON was one of the best album ever and they just put out another album that got rave reviews from the critics "well worth the wait". gothic architecture is the shit and edwardian furniture... these things are more than a fashion trend. metalheads will be around too, you don't just stop liking things that you like that much.

it's one thing to make fun of the mullet pics you see online or something like the "i'm so goth i shit bats" pic but to deliberately put humiliating comments in a member's gallery for everyone else to see isn't cool. it's bullshit and it shouldn't be tolerated.

i'm pretty sure those kids aren't going to be perusing any bodybuilding sites anytime soon and she didn't go out of her way to personally insult them on a forum where they're paying members. big difference.

the best part is she's not going to change who she is to suit the masses. she is her own person and her self expression is part of the package take it or leave it.

 

[SYN]

Shit,Sorry, but this is hypocrisy to a whole new level.

ugly is ugly. i call them like i see em. and i don't consider myself ugly...most days. and you can't exactly call it hypocrisy cause i never said that i wasn't a cunt.

Its just something you can predict 100 miles away. You might be wrong here and there but for the most part, you can tell if something is just a phase.

the fasion of the scene may change, but the fashion is just a facade. the passion behind the scene, the morals and the values and the heart behind it wont, and that's what matters the most.

Bell bottoms? Overall with 1 strap? How about wearing jeans backwards? yeah taht shit is all gone.

have you been shopping recently? any clothing store you go into, you're going to find a pair of bell bottoms. they're everywhere, and guess what, people actually wear them. people wearing those cheesy straight legged pants are usually obese, mental, or on welfare. which one of the three are you?

Today? You got assholes wearing rock star glasses, collars are up, jeans with flip flops, PINK SHIRTS... How about girls wearing those ugly ass "pregnant shirts?" Or the spandex worn underneath skirts? The shirts with the wide belts that go across the tummy?

those guys are called 'gangsters' or 'wanksters' or preps or simply stuck up socialites, most of whom have no real morals and a dull personality. like P.Diddy for example
the girls who dress in the way you described however, are not getting laid any time soon unless they meet up with Mike Tyson.

Take a look at James Dean or Marlon Brando... their fashions still work today. You know why? Cuz its fucking simple. If it isnt broken, dont fix it.

no. their styles lasted because they were fucking awesome. even i do the little elvis hair thinggy...when it's long enough...or short enough.

Ive seen some ridiculous shit at my store that makes me wonder if today's generation is getting laid.

yes. we are in fact getting laid.

A 6ft boy with tight, faded black jeans with a rhinestone belt? Jesus. Along with a 2 size too small T-shirt to show off those 8 inch guns? The shirt is also short enough to expose the waistline of the tight faded jeans. The hair is black or mixed with either a wild due or a shaggy shitcut. Black framed glasses with non-prescription lens. Pale. 130lbs.

they have a higher potential to get laid then most others. in my opinion at least. guys in tight pants with fucked up hair and almost belly shirts [ecspecialy pink ones] are doing it because we like it. hip bones are the new hot. although he my be a little tall, and could probably stand to gain at least ten to fifteen pounds in curves. i think guys look better when they are thin, but they still need to have shape; they need curves. and not like you're 19'' 'guns'. you'd probably be surprised to find that there are a lot of girls who would rather have a beautiful little soft shapped boy with curves and a figure than someone who spends most of their time in the gym because guess what, that time would be well better spent with their girlfriends. maybe that would help clear up some emotional constipations as well.

Sorry..and I dont mean to be cocky, but 10 times out of 10, my generation would kick the shit out of, fuck more girls than, and get hired more times than today's generation.

if you'd rather live a life that's about fighting, fucking and money than one about love, happiness and generousity, then you're pretty much waisting it.

omfg that's funny. i posted on here about the two sets of numbers on the weights in a gym i used to go to. no one knew what it meant, wasn't metric

 

[Gazhole]

So people who go to the gym regularly dont spend enough time with their significant others? On average most people go to the gym about 6 hours a week MAXIMUM. If you had a partner that couldnt do without you for 6 hours out of a 168 hour week then theyd be too emotionally crippled to be worth the hassle.

Obviously the muscular thing is all about preference, similarly a lot of girls like guys who have hairstyles that differ from their own. Most of the guys/girls i see around these days are almost totally interchangable in terms of hair, clothes...fuck, guys are even wearing make up these days. Call me what you want, but men should be men, yknow?

Im not talking about sitting on pickup trucks shooting small animals while shaving for the tenth time that day with a giant fucking machete, but a SMALL resemblance to masculinity would make this whole sub-culture a little more bearable.

I think its a bit closed minded to think that i cant spend time sculpting the way i want to look and feel - healthy - without spending enough time to keep a relationship healthy. Im in a four year relationship, and through that time ive gone to the gym 3 times a week, worked full time, taught myself to play 2 instruments, hung around with my friends every weekend WHILE managing to spend enough time with my girlfriend (who lives about 30 miles away) to stay together.

Im not taking a dig here, but i just hate that pre-conception that just because somebody is commited to fitness training and bodybuilding that they let it define their whole lives. No one thing defines me. Not music, not training, not fashion. People are complicated, they shouldnt belong to any sort of social grouping.

people that go to the gym regularly, or utilize some other effective exercise regimen will probably spend years more with their partners in the long run.
