You can't slap anyone around on the internet. You can be an obnoxious
troll, but it takes a "special" psychology to think that's the same
thing, or that anyone is impressed by it.

something has to be notable and/or involve a little risk.

:-)  Like riding on an ordinary road where there may be (gosh!) cars?
Like riding a flat Florida bike path _without_ carrying a loaded and
chambered gun?  But even that's beyond you!

That's from the guy whose only achievement is riding a bicycle and
standing in front of a classroom.

Despite your failing to meet your own standard on that point, your
description of "bragworthy" seems to be tied up with your primitive
concept of manliness: guts and muscle.

And I think that's the root of your bitching misery. Since you have no
respect for achievements not related to guts and muscle, you're having a
really, really hard time dealing with your self-described increasing
feebleness. You're down to bragging about 50 mile rides on dead flat
bike paths (something almost any of us can do without thinking) and
putting together a spreadsheet.

Talk is cheap, and you do it lot.

(Wow!!) Oh, and posting ancient pictures
about leg muscles you used to have. That was classic.  :-)

Ah well, you claimed I was overweight and I was happy to fix that
misconception for you. Here's another takes a few years later.

You brag about your education and think it's an accomplishment.
Avctually, it's only a tool. Bragging about education is like saying,
"Look at me, I bought a hammer and a skill saw."

As for your claims to have been recruited for commitees and groups,
knowing you, it's more likely that you grovelled and begged to have a
seat on them. Many people, me, for instance, would grovel and beg not
to have sit in on those group thinking sessions.

As for me, I've suggested that you browse through my small collection
of photos about things I've done.

>
Oh wow! Photos! Boy, I bet the rest of us wish we had actual _photos_ of
ourselves and the places we've been!

I'm sure you have pictures, but you're afraid to let anyone see them.
It's no wonder since you've never done anything that would make an
interesting picture.  A while back you posted a picture from your
flicker account. A couple of frames ahead, there was a picture of your
fat little, double chinned face on a bike with a helmet on. No wonder
the pictures I post of myself bother you. You are a toad.

(Someone please explain to Mr. Tricycle about sarcasm. He might not get
it.)

You're a weakening old dude who has trouble standing up, who has close
to zero social network (for obvious reasons!) and who compensates by
snarking on the internet and claiming he's too manly to need friends.

Huh? Actually, I've got lots of friends and all my friends are real,
not imaginary like your "fred." TRuth is that there are more people
who want to be my friend than I want. People from two churches that we
no longer go to, people from my condo who want me to come to their
parties (I used to entertain them with music). People who ask to
bicycle with me...  Mostly, I just want them to leave me alone, but my
wife makes me promise not to be rude.

In the future, Mr. Tricycle Rider, please try to remember this: When I
ignore you, I'm using the same mental process I use when ignoring a
yapping Yorkshire Terrier.

You're not ignoring me, you're just hiding from me. You want me to
think that you've not taken to heart what I've been saying about you,
but your posts shows that it has. You've been doing a pretty good job
of keeping your narisissim under control, so bully bully for you.
