Belly up to the bar....

[Cutty72]

Looks gorgeous outside, sunny and clear. Until I look at the temp. -8.

And comonboys' cat is gonna get tossed in a snowbank quick if it doesn't STFU!

[Angee]

I had to send my kids to Nashville early...we knew this crap was coming, so I changed the flight from today to last night. Sure enough, we got right at another foot today. Anybody want some snow-creme?

I'm not sure. It came with the Hindle on it. Its not super loud, but has an excellent tone so I would guess stealth.

Things I've noticed about the new TWFix;

Belly up to the bar is for OG twfixer's, overnight peoples is for cf people.

Stunting videos are now cool and not met with disdain.

I have no idea what's going on in about 50% of threads. It's lol'ing and inside jokes between posters I've never heard of about shit I don't care about.

90% of new posts are copy/pasted news stories by pauldun and avatard.

OTB rarely posts anymore. Same with Kat.

Maybe 5% of new threads are motorcycle related, down from maybe 10% before the influx of cf'ers.

If I don't come on here for two days there will be 7 pages of new topics. I'll be interested in maybe 10 of the new threads enough to read, 4 of them enough to reply. I often don't go past the second page of new posts before checking subscribed threads.

This is still the best and only motorcycle forum I use.

I still think there's a slight buffer between the two groups, though it's slowly fading. There's still something of a clique type of atmosphere and that's where some of the inside joke stuff comes into play. To turn the table slightly, there's a similar feel for me seeing some of the jokes that you may not consider inside jokes, but still being relatively new to the site, they fly over my head.

Just because of the nature of the people posting, I think the feel is something more of a group of friends with a common interest, as opposed to a specific topic forum with common friends. So while their are less strictly motorcycle related topics, it's less about people who have no interest in the general topic and more that everyone is immersed in motorcycling to some degree and it's common. And don't forget we're entering the shit end of the riding season, where bikes are being put away for hibernation. I think the influx started about the same time riding season was coming to a close. It's hard to get amped about a riding thread when the baby is away for a few months. Once season rolls around, I think it'll swing more towards a motorcycle focus as people knock off the dust or pick up new bikes.

And nothing will change with Pauldun and Avatard. Throw in some Speed_Addiction and MVBrutaleGirl/TopShelf/TopsheIf/SunnySportsterGirl/whateverthefuckothername and things would get a little more interesting in the War Room. If only Baby Gorilla was here.

I appreciate it. I have obviously failed at being a psychotic outcast.

You should definitely come to the Indy race/rally next year. The meets are how the real relationships get formed on here as far as I can see. I consider everyone who came to the rally a real friend after having met them as opposed to someone I just bullshit with online.
