State of the forum 2024

You're not sure if you have multiple personalities?
Toby was talking to himself yesterday, so you wouldn't be the only one.

He was what?
Guess that would explain the Dot. The Toby who started the thread that evolved into the Dot was not actually the Toby who had posted in the original P-N thread.

Do multiple personalities need individual passwords or are they considered "sock puppets"?

Forum is on better form than on Tour route announcement day.

Who was it that said it was the highlight of every CN year, @SafeBet?

Unlucky (or lucky) stage 13.

Yup. That's my blood bag day normally.
Yesterday was a little different. Like I left my bag in the fridge a couple of years. I might need a doctor.

You know that Giro doesn't deliver if this is the most popular thread in the clinic

This Giro has made my blood boil, but that keeps it from thickening, so it's not all bad.

Pretty sure that if you boil something, it will lose liquid, which will make it thicker.

If it boils for too long, but hopefully it won't come to that.

I have been struggling, Jai Vine style. Some Samu Cuenca boiled blood in a bag sounds exactly like what I need on this second rest day.

Proper fuelling .... and I don't mean a sack of coal. (Didn't Uncle Ben's do blood in a bag? Just pop it in the micro and bon appetit)

In a desperate attempt to at least avoid the lantern rouge, I have stayed in Freiburg overnight with my good friend Samu (he doesn't only gift you sprints).

Hopefully good to go for these final few stages.

I see topcat is well up ahead, but I feel that he might have peaked a bit early with his Remco vs. Roglic thread, and might be about to go Simon Yates on us.

I am going to perform like Chris Froome, though which version of Froome that is, I'm not sure.

As always, the answer is in the bag.

I like Freiburg, where the Black Forest meets the black market, and Blue Roads gets turned into red roids.

Samu: "Orange is the new black."
Andreas: "I like mobiles because they are very private, hopefully."

Remco vs Roglic is old news. It’s funny that probably neither will win after the blood boiling question of who will win the giro. It’s all aboard the Almida train after he went all Pantani in stage 16. In one stage, The state of the forum has gone from disillusioned to a partial state of arousal.

Compared to the rest of this giro he did kind of ride like Pantani.

I actually lived in Freiburg for years and I never turned red! People only become Greens in Freiburg anyway.

Do green doping methods exist? Ending up with traces of plastic in your blood probably isn't one.

Are we talking actual real-life doping? Or weird forum doping?
Coz, there's always greg's green tea...

A bit of both. I'm sure the posters are trying out different measures, just like their favourite riders. Some might even act as guinea pigs for the pros. I'm sure Jay Vine liked today's tea blend.

Just something your alternative self accidentally started.

Two nights ago my concoctions worked, easily staying awake for the stage 18 duration. Whatever I had last night failed; I was asleep before the Giau. Though apparently the peloton also slept.

Let's see what tonight brings. Almeida is Portuguese and from UAE......crazy vibes.

Anyway, you all know who my favourite rider is, and how he's been very outspoken about not using any sort of morally questionable measures, not even a perfectly legitimie TUE outside of competition to fix his injured back.
Thanks for confirming my cleanness! I shall now continue having one of the best final weeks of a GT in my (forumite) career, while only making up my mind about what I want quite late, and maybe occasionally question the identity of people.

 

[topcat]

State of the forum-clinically dead. The most boring riders ruining the most beautiful race. I’d like to know what fans of Roglic and G are on to be able to defend that trash. I won’t be watching the time trial because they all deserve to lose and it’s my birthday-it’s time to party.
