So what does it mean when somebody [on this board] has a long signature boasting of all the high end equipment they have.

a. egotistical?
b. trying to make friends?
c. have a big void in life and feel the need to feel excepted?
d. just have a strong desire to feel empowered over other people?
e. just getting bored living in the basement of their parents house?
f. ****? (if you're ****, please ignore this one)

    Good line of defense, but I'm not buying it (pick a letter).

    It's funny how someone who can have two offices (seemingly impressive) still does not know how to use the correct form of "their"

    Tell the truth, now... you're really a sanitation engineer for two buildings, aren't you? :)

    It's a speaker company forum. What do you expect people to put down there? Jeep clubs tell what they have on their jeeps, computer geeks write what their system consists of, if it's a general forum, there's probably something witty or a life thought. Others either don't know how or don't care to even bother with putting anything. Since you asked me to pick a letter, I'll go with "e" since it's closest to my current situation.

    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down.

    I'd pick letter g from edbert combined with laziness.

    I leave it there so if someone is asking about particular piece of equipment that I have, they can ask me specific questions. Otherwise they could be asking a question on say, using Maggies with a tube amp and take the advice of someone who has no experience with either and believing it as actual information.

    Laziness comes from my Sig has some stuff I've sold and some stuff I don't have.

    BTW, your post reaks of jealousy. Compensating much?
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    Your system is bard arse. If my system met yours in a dark alley, it would probably piss itself and make some feeble attempt at groveling for its pathetic life.
    I also heard your system cured cancer and will be heading the first mission to Mars.

    That "big void in my life" came when they canceled Cop Rock.

    a. trying to piss people off with no consequences because you can hide behind your keyboard.

    All of the above.
    Damn that truth hurt. I am dismantled! While it does sting, I feel that anthonydee123 is right:eek:

    I have been far too egotistical. This has effected my ability to make friends. I do have a void in my life. No matter how many times I watch Lord Of The Rings in surround sound, the void remains. Talking down to people with inferior systems makes me feel empowered deep down inside. I need therapy.

    I now sit in my parents basement questioning my sexual orientation. I am a defeated ex-wanna be audiophile.

    THE HORROR. THE HORROR.

    I am certainly not egotistical...I'm just superior to everyone else...and any failure they may have in accepting that fact is their problem...not mine.

    If you are going to post annoying and derogatory comments, have the decency to spell correctly. The word is "accepted" and it is "their farts." In my opinion, there is no room for gender bashing, race bashing, manufacturer bashing or **** bashing on the board.

    Where's Cliff when you need him. This thread has huge potential to make it to HOS, but without provocateurs, I am afraid it will be over before it gets exciting.

    ...a bag of popcorn is ready to pop in the microwave though, wait, the Stanley's final is still 10 hours away, damn. This thread better be entertaining to hold me over to the game.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    thanks for the spelling correction... trying to type on a palm PDA... it's difficult...
    and just for clarification I'm not bashing any **** people... I have several new **** friends on this board and I would not want hurt any feelings.
