Did you think your ........ was any less transparent from a greater distance?

Came across this while waiting to buy my ticket to Chiang Mai where I'm meeting with some old friends who teach meditation courses.
In Buddhism there is a description of a world in the afterlife, populated by beings, so-called “hungry ghosts,” whose appetites exceed their capacity for satisfaction. Their stomachs are huge, but their throats are tiny. No matter how much they attempt to eat, their hunger remains unsatiated. The realm of the hungry ghosts is one of the "six realms of Buddhism," which at first glance might seem like actual places—there is a “hell realm,” for instance, which could be thought of as a real hell.
Another way of looking at them is as descriptions of certain mental states. The hungry ghosts, or pretas, might be imagined as real beings, but in a larger sense they are simply sentient beings whose hunger defines and dominates their existence; we may call them alcoholics and internet trolls who, unable to attain a higher plane of existance inhabit racing forums annoying actual living beings while pretending to be living humans. The flit about wily-nilly spreading discontent and minor irritation because they're so desperate to be noticed and hoping to be mistaken for real humans living in the real world. Discerning humans can easily tell them apart from the living by readily indentifying features, namely childish sense of humor, the need to lash out at the living (due to their painful awareness of their wretched existence being neither fully dead or alive and their screeching envy of the living) along with their lack of respect or compassion for others. They are often depicted in Buddhist iconography as braying jack-..... the size of mosquitos.

Maybe we have a dissonance of the meaning of the term breach. I am using the following definition:
verb (used without object)
(of a whale) to leap partly or completely out of the water.

Mick. As you probabaly know, witnessing a group of dolphins "leaping "out of the water is a rare and special occurence. Leaping, meaning to project their entire body out of the water. Dolphins typically breach the surface with their fin and blowhole. Ive seen Dolphins hundreds of times and have never been fortunate enough to see them leaping. ( except at sea world) My point is that Keshav will lie and overindulge any story to make himself look better. If you say you saw them leaping then I will believe you. As far as I can remember you have always been straightforward. Plus your Canadian and Im pretty sure Canadians will self destruct if they lie

Grown man posts picture of himself giving the middle finger to posters as a response.
Must be more of your so-called insistence on moving things forward.

Hilarious Ant, really good stuff.
You're asking the wrong person here this question though.
Maybe you should be asking the guy who has agreed to not saying anything to other posters, and then decides to forgo that agreement with in a week or two.

Oh do tell us more Hare Krishna.
Again, you fly over 15,000 miles, and all you can do is post on here about what you are doing.
Some vacation there Kancer.

This just got me out of bed. Hahaha well done sir! Hahaha, I'm crying of laughter. I've said it before, Powerslide is a special place. Great social experiment, and some gems.
AntG, we tried the ignore route. If you've been reading for a while, an honest attempt was made. Just as much as you can't ignore the flame wars, neither can i buddy, I don't want to any more. Its not cool when you ignore giving license to the forum Kancer be emboldened to take digs and personal attacks because he knows it goes unchallenged. JKD has used the report button several times, over harassment, apparently that button alerts someone stationed in a black hole. There's a member here who has been locked out over a glitch (Mdub). If you've noticed we've been trying garner attention to it. Kancer has been attacking him while the guy isn't even here! What does that tell you?
What is the message to the user? So Kancer gets to prance around exploiting the community. I say let's join in on the fun. Perhaps it's time for people who are annoyed with Keshav's persistent provocations of flame wars to leave. Honestly, that would be my advice. I think you're a great member here and I really enjoy your contributions, and I don't think it's fair to you to have to sift through pages of crap. But brother, we've tried all kinds of tactics to rid ourselves of the resident forum troll. Now, I'm going to help him destroy the forum. I will take his lead. Where ever he trolls I shall follow.
Btw, did you know some of us left the forum for another private one? Yup, left. Kancer joined the site to follow the guy who he ran off from this site to harass. I know because that member took the extraordinary step to block Kancer from the PM system. Mind you this was a forum woth the gang of members he hates. He destroyed that forum. Now I'm gonna help him do the same to this one. That's his plan. Its a pattern. He's like the Borg, resistance is futile.

These hungry ghost are called "Gaki" which also means a child or children with negative connotations. Gaki is usually used to describe younger people who are childish, ignorant, immature, or annoying as in "some of you guys are acting like gaki." :giggle:

I don't care what he's done, that's between you lot and him, it's just frustrating coming on here to talk about a sport we all have a passion for and end up trawling through literally pages, sometimes double numbers worth of pages of walls of text, none of which will have anything to do with racing bikes. So many good threads on here lately seem to be just becoming childish arguments and then you've got the daily spam attacks making it less enjoyable, hopefully with the season starting again now we'll talk more about racing.
