Bitcoin Forum

I was lurking the forum and was surprised to see someone posting about bitcoins on the bodybuilding forum. There seems to be a lot of guys that have no idea what bitcoin is.

Seriously, what would you expect? On any forum unrelated with a certain subject, when that subject pops up, there will be lots of people not knowing about it. Then there will be some nonsense replies (as always) and maybe a few people truly interested in learning more about the subject.

Wow, this thread is 7 pages long!

• Bitcoin is blowing up right now! Al gore just promoted it.

Cute how some folks don't seem to be able to investigate for themselves to come to an informed opinion, but rather need reassurance from an authority figure before standing behind something.

• wasn't it 50ish a couple months ago wtf.

just a couple of months ago wtf is this crazy shit :o

So we can have a hearty laugh?

Silkroad prices are an absurdity. No one would be desperate enough to order there especially with the high availability of steroids and related drugs through traditional routes.

Ouch - that forum filled with non-tech saavy users, mostly teenagers looking to be ripped and buff. Please don't promote SR to any of those people. People who train should have patience and build it up the natural way. Also steroids have health and social effects that teenagers may not be ready to deal with, and which can put them in a lot of trouble, besides, hardly none of them are good at computers, so having them covering their steps when purchasing their juice online, well, many of them are looking into a disaster..

But as it is - as long as there's a demand - users will find a way...

I love the fact that there is a guy who has 500 bitcoins but doesn't even know what they are worth  :D
Jezus...

EDIT: actually, after reading a bit further I am surprised by how many people know about them.  Guess most 'normal' people wouldn't check the post though.

I was trying to come up with a witty and coherent post but honestly, all I can think of is fratboys and douchebags whenever I tried to read that thread >_<.

I saved you the trouble reading the thread, now there was like 5% useful posts there, the rest went like this:





























And for your amusement, I took a snapshot of a couple of the regulars:

Let me die :( lol

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

Hi Rambo,

say hello to the guys over at bodybuilding.com from us.

Cheers.

If I recall correctly, Bruce Wagner was connected with that site.

This^^

Lol I'm a Bodybuilding.com member and an early Bitcoin adopter, you know you can enjoy both without adopting either completely, don't understand why people need to play into the stereotype.

You can deal with Bitcoins while being a "shredded kunt m8"

of course, but the cross section of this site and bodybuilding.com isn't large. there's always an exception for every rule. In general the intellect of most tech minded bitcoiners far outweighs that of the general bodybuilding.com member, and likewise, the general amount of muscle on the average bodybuilder.com member probably outweighs the average amount of muscle on the members of this site. The two concepts are not mutually exclusive, but frankly one should not expect too much of the bodybuilding.com members in terms of intellectual capasity, even if you might be one of the odd cases out. But as for your last sentence, I'm not so sure anymore.

That forum is most famous for it's "I'm 18 do I have potential?" photoshopped images.

If only Zyzz were here to promote Bitcoin :'(

I'm here brah, raving in Miami, riding that bicycle, looking sexy as always, you mirin'?

This! 

Make fun all you want but they are doing it right back to us.

A lot of them have no idea how to lift a weight from the floor either. And they probably are doing squats in the Smith Machine and leg presses instead of Olympic Lifts.

The best way to approach real lifters is explaining like this:

Fiat money is like isolated exercises (peck-deck, biceps curls, leg extensions, etc.). The external machine 'assist' you in the movement. It doesn't work. If you wanna grow, avoid this trap.

Bitcoin is like sprint training and compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, snatches, clean'n'jerk, chin-ups, push-ups etc.) You don't need an external machine to 'assist' you in the movements. With Bitcoin, you are your own gym.

We're all gonna make it, brah

Died young of steroid usage. Popular culture is a cancer. Many young (and old) people of today are narcissists, I guess young people have always been like that anyway..

Zyzz can never die
