Hey i've been reading this board for like 8 months and i've only been interjecting on my own recently. I was reading a reply Par Deus made and I found myself wondering what he did. So I thought it would be cool if the people on this board who know shit and seem to be the heavy's regarding legitamate knowledge of their topics would mention where they work/go to school, what they study, what they do... unless nobody cares, if nobody cares I don't care either..I was just kidding in that case.

there have been threads on this in the garbage section
Par Deus
I own Avant Labs and MindandMuscle.net and the Avant Forums smile.gif

I'm the labour leader of a local union.

I pretend to be smart but I only trick the idiots. Ninjas like Lyle see right through it ph34r.gif ph34r.gif ph34r.gif

It's called the BrooklynJuice effect wub.gif
JNJax
I am one of the not so smart people who gets off as people thinking he has a average I.Q.

I work at Nissan Parts Distribution as a assistant manager in shipping.
ergoman500
I profess to be considered intelligent by people who read my postings here at AL...

I know a lot of info, but don't "get" must of what I think I know...

(Sometimes that is...)

I work at a place where people check out "books" and other materials.

Dante
I was Corky's stunt-double in Life Goes On. Running into all of those walls eventually took its toll on me.

I'm currently directing gay and midget porn - or in some cases, a combination thereof. Look for my debut in Little Klaus on the Fairy.

Speaking of the retarded: I've also considered doing a documentary on the plight of the mentally challenged. Thought of calling it: "Who's Going to Be There for Me (To Tie My Shoes)." Perhaps I could interview the relativists on this board.

Or Big Cat. Come on - 3 "suicide attempts" in a year? What do these cry-for-help "attempts" consist of? Swallowing an aspirin, scraping both wrists with a frozen chicken nugget, and calling 911?

It's truly sad when you've annoyed your family and friends to such an extent, that they start to critique your suicide notes; ensuring that you'll make a real tear-jerker out of Good Bye Cruel World: Reloaded.



So all in all, I guess my one true talent and calling is spreading the love. It's all about the love. wub.gif

Kylixer
My occupation serves as an excuse for binge drinking, anonymous sex, and socially accepted drug-use and experimentation.

And all at the small cost of 30k + a year to listen to the liberal minority bandstand and tell me their views of how the world should morally be run.

smile.gif Still a college student, and loving every minute.
Supnut
I am simply a figment of your imagination


Why do you think people look at you so funny when you tell them, "Supnut told me that...." ?
Emanlifts
this thought occurred to me today while i was just about to do a set of squats, and i had to take some extra time because for some reason i thought it was so damn funny i couldn't concentrate.... anyway, when you guys (the avant team, members, etc) meet each other face to face at supp expos, do you actually introduce yourselves as your handles here? do you see the avant booth and run up saying, 'OMG hey Par, i love your products... it's me, hotbod6969!' or do you guys try to leave the virtual names for the internet, first identifying yourselves by your handle, then trying to get to know each other by [gasp] your 'real world' names?

Coming from the guy who thought it a good idea to sprinkle gun powder in his dog's food, I'm not sure if I should take that as an insult.

Though, given that the average human is on the same emotional and intellectual level as the average dog (no insult to dogs intended), you may have stumbled upon a new treatment for "depression" and general laziness.
Supnut
I can't imagine calling Par Caleb although If someone called me Supnut in person I'd probably hear the name, stop and wonder why it sounded so familiar and not realize they were addressing me.

What you failed to mention/realize in your witty reply, is you are talking about a scenario that happened over 10 yeas ago. Even mentioning it, makes it sound like it is still a part of my personality or something I would do. Think its time to move on? Or are you, like so many others, going to be forever fixated on it? You had to say something didnt you?

And, by that, he means that his brain is too small to assimilate and integrate large amounts of data from multiple systems.

IOW, he can't determine it with a blood test for a single "biochemical marker", so he will retreat to the fantasy world of the soft sciences.

I think its just a nice collection of ideas. You have Par and Spook, who are about as knowledgeable as anyone in this industry, Steve and his CC and TP-PT training, which are pretty in depth and better than most diet/training plans, dsade who can source llama dinggleberry extract from China, and TK, who is pretty much jack of all trades when it comes to training, nutrition, supplementation, etc, and is more or less the spokeperson for avant. Then you have Loki working his Lyle like angst out trying to find out and better everything out there (in regards to becoming). Then you have your random inteliigent posters, who always seem to bring up good topics or questions, like Novick, Stabmaster, Duchaine, Spencer, etc. Then you have your average guys, like me, who just by reading this board regulalary should get some sort of certifiicate or license to officially bich slap stupid people in public for what they say about training and nutrition (think GNC store maganager) You also get to see first hand quick as things coming down from Egropharm, BSL, and from Mike. Wether you like to admit it or not, you like to see Ted, Layne and Derek all get ready to compete, esp au naturale'. Then you have Roy. Jeez, sounds like an infomercial.

Oh man, you're so tough on the other side of your computer. I know your only 23, but its time to grow up Layne.
BTW, everyone who mentions your non-existant calves and lats, get jumped on by you. Its called construtive
critisism. If you cant handle it, I suggest you not pic whore yourself every week.
Your repeated response to this is, "ive made great progress". The judges will know.
laugh.gif I dont care if you get your natural pro card or not. You lack proportion. Being
lean isnt the only thing they will be judging. My guess is you either have a very low self esteem
, or you are just plain delusion about your builld. Everyone can suck your ass about being ripped,
but I hear nobody talking about your proportion. The truth is the truth. When you get some really competition
and stop doing power puff shows, hopefully youll realize its not in your genetic cards to compete.

And don't take it out on Layne. It's not his fault he's so damn sexy. I now regret not taking him up on his offer when I met him at the Arnold. I'm illiterate when it comes to reading body language. Oh well. Live and learn.

I can't understand people that get so upset on an internet forum where most people really don't know each other anyway. I have more to be stressed about than arguing over the internet!
