What does it all mean?
that we have to much time on our hands.
Yeah you can pretty much bank on any 1st post mentioning a brand is spam. Or when they make no direct, specific appeal/reference for help or to the topic, but just causually start rambling. Maybe it gets by some filters more easily

Does anyone have a pair, size medium or large, new or lightly used, that they would be willing to part with? I would be happy to pay a reasonable price and shipping.
Shipping from the US to Pakistan is not going to be even close to reasonable.
I really don't understand why people think I am bluffing about the spam thing not working.....

That`s the same as that Izoner brief post. Someone is taking legitimate posts from other sites and reposting them on threads that seem to have a superficial resemblance to the topic. It may be a bot doing this. I bet the 2 posts are related.

No, Oscar will always be first in our hearts, as far as trolls go.
I still think he needs a formal title.
HEY IRONMAN! HOW ABOUT "TROLL KING" FOR OSCAR?

Can I really be a Troll King when I'm keeping a food joural, that is no easy task for a fat lazy man. And, although a new constantly evolving lifter, I've kept up full body compound training, steady for over a year, 10 months with the rack. Let's think of a more fittitng title.
Oh wait, you were kidding? Ok, carry on

They have to do it manually here. Either that or write a custom bot program to do it, which would take longer than manual. They can maybe use software after they sign up though.

I doubt you have been to Wyoming. From what I understand the length of time between the winter solstice and the spring equinox are the same everywhere on the hemisphere. It's probably hot in Pakistan. Well at least you're sitting at a computer instead of sneaking into India or Afghanistan to blow people up.
I ought to spoof your broadcast IP and ping flood you.

I have lived in Wyoming. Length of time from solstice to equinox not withstanding, Winter seemed a lot longer to me there than it did after I moved to coastal Washington. Started well before solstice, and lasted until long after equinox.
Now, I'm trying to somehow relate length of winters in Wyoming to sweat pants pockets, and I'm failing.

You will be expanding your belly? I don't need special yoga pants (trousers, trousers) for that!
