    It's exhausting! People need to stop posting so often. I go away for a couple days and then come back to over 1,000 posts! What!? That's just way too many. Okay? People should go ride or do some stuff around the house or something. Get a job. Work at your job (yeah, some of you post from work and I think that's sick and degenerate). Have some children.

    No, wait, don't have children. Mountain bikers are too dirty, scummy and dishonest to be around children. Just go buy another bike and work on it.

    But, for gosh sakes, don't post pics of it. We don't need to see every damn one of your bikes! And, speaking of pics, we don't need to see every damn one of your rides either. Just knock it off! So you went riding and it was pretty and stuff. Nobody cares! Save some bandwitdh, will ya? I mean, important stuff needs to go through all of the interwebs' tubes and we don't need to clog it up with all of you posting about stupid rides and bikes.

    Okay, well, I don't want to start ranting here, so I'll just wind it up by saying that enough is enough. There's too many posts and it needs to stop. Don't you have a chain you could lube or something?

    But, I really like the funny videos. Could we have more of those? And less about mountain lions. That's scary. More funny videos, less mountain lions. Please.

    Thanks! Have a great one!

    Who says you have to read every post? Life WILL go on even if you have unread posts.

    I don't post nearly enough. I need to step it up.
    Who reads everything? If I am not interested I don't read it.

    Well, when I was younger and STR was smaller, I used to be able to read all of the posts every day.

    Those were the salad days.

    I've tried several times to read all the unread posts just for fun. I can get my #'s done but within the hour it's right back up. Maybe one day when I'm really bored or if I were ever in a full body cast with nothing else to do I "might" accomplish it.
