Since we're going all in with bitching about everything from e bikes to faulty gun triggers, why the fuck won't the city pick up my yard waste or recycling? Total media blackout on that subject.

For Matthes, this is forever changing the sport.

No one has to play along if they don't want to.
I don't give a hoot about what Steve posts on his insta or his vlog. That's his business and more power to him. I got all butt hurt because I mistakenly thought he directly posted it here. It was entirely my fault for spewing crap. Again, I apologise for being an idiot.

You aren't an idiot. We all make mistakes. I haven't been around as long as many of you fine people, my method is to not take too much too seriously here on VItal. It's wild to watch some of the dog-piles around here.

I'm here for the news and the entertainment the site brings.

I do agree with you, there's a time for seriousness as well.

There was an old shotgun bar in the town where I went to school as a kid. On the wall of the men's room someone wrote, "The Smith's kicked the shit out of the O'Brien's". Below that, someone wrote, "Yeah...and then they ate it". Always made me chuckle.

It does seem like the older generation get roped in the most when it comes to controversial posts on Facebook, Twitter, Vital etc. I’m not sure whether it’s because we were bought up with social media and are jaded by all the shit that gets posted (where as the older generation are relatively new to socials), or because they’ve seen too many radical ideas come to fruition in their life time such that the older generation feels the need to blow apart these ideas incase one of them gains traction

Forgive me for not wanting to wade through pages of drivel but can someone summarize what the massively impactful news is that is going to change the sport of motocross forever? I've been on pins and needles all week.

Here's the cliff notes:

Steve Matthes puts out ambiguous tweet with likely a hyperbolic and sarcastic tone

Vital user reposts said tweet on Vitalmx

Speculations about aforementioned tweet begin

Some others go off on some wild tangential pissing match about something unrelated because they can't help themselves being argumentative

Hints are dropped by those in the know that original tweet probably has to do with Alex Martin's (aka Troll Train) impending retirement

Other vital users who had completely missed sarcasm in Steve Matthes' original TWEET are now pissed that it's not literally what it alluded to be, and are calling his journalism bullshit and click-baity. They are ready to leave the sport completely because of this.

All common sense is lost

Bears begin to appear

10 pager status is almost achieved

We still don't know what Steve Matthes' original tweet referred to for certain.

My girlfriend told me I need to get in touch with my feminine side..
So I crashed the car
Then got mad at her for no reason
And didn’t bring my wallet when we went for dinner..

I definitely fit into the geezer category but I was a dumbass long before I got old. In this case, I had my head inverted and didn't pay attention to the fact that Steve didn't post his "insider info"...someone else did.

I hadn't ever seen Steve put anything like that directly on the board...so I got all pissy. Once I realized my mistake...I apologized to him and the rest of you guys. You can take away my youth...but you'll never take my ignorance.BlushWoohoo

I think you're right!
Pretty sure he has access to a track and a fair bit of knowledge. He'd make a good coach...unless he's got offers for other things. Hope darkside gets the skinny.

All I have to say about how this thread went off the rails is I will lay odds on what the Race Tech Rant is this coming Monday night.
