These guys have us beat hands down.
Funniest crap I have ever read.
Go here and just read the first page, then come back and click the second link and read that page. HAHAHAHA
It all starts here (http://www.thumpertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=358415&page=1&pp=10)
He actually went to the dealer (http://www.thumpertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=358415&page=15&pp=10)

"JUST WANT TO THANK YOU A-HOLES FOR MAKING ME LOOK LIKE A FN MORON."
-"honestly, you didn't need a whole lot of help."
:rofl
They're as bad as we are, if not worse.

i walk into the dealer when it opens. goto the section where they have exhaust hanging on the wall. i look around and see nothing. so i figure there in the parts room. i go up to the counter and ask this kid if the have any power bands in the back. he looked at me kinda funny. and said what?? i told him i wanted to check out the purple powerbands. he goes in the back and then the parts mgr comes out and asks me "now what are you looking for" i told him. he chuckled and said " no really what do you need" i told him again and explained exactly what it was and does.. he shaked his head smiling and ask whats the punch line.. what kinda joke is this. then he told me what a powerband really is (thanks guys) i felt real stupid. and left... im sure they got a big kick out of it... now i can never go back there.
This is the one where I lost it hysterically laughing. Could you imagine hahha.
Aww crap they moved this to the ***** OClub. LAME LOL
-
Well, I could have just nuked it for violation of Rule #1. LAME is not being able to post in the correct forum in the first place.
-
No I didn't mean it like that Skuzz, just nobody here, or very few will even understand it.
No big deal tho.
-
I don't understand it myself.

HAHAHAHA
A kid was on the bike boards asking a question - Where can he get Power Bands for his bike. Some one told him he needed the Purple Power Bands LOLH.
i was reading about these on a thread. where do they go. i aasume they give you different ranges of power. i was looking for them online but could not find them. since my bike is red is that the color power band it comes with stock. my bike is stock.. please help.
So some of teh smart arses told him to go to the dealer to buy the "Power bands for his bike" Just in case, the "Power Band".
So the kid went to the dealer and asked. See my second post. LOL
Now I know we're bad, with the MOAT and all. But we are not that bad as to someone making arses out of themselves in real life.
I just found it teh funnay.

idiot kid.
that has to be a troll in the first place. no one is that stupid....
superdud doesnt ride a bike by any chance does he?
-
Those guys were good. That was too funny!
I really liked the one post where the guy actually has a picture of a wheel bearing being pulled out of a muffler. That was good.
-
I knew exactly where my power band was on my old 350LC. It kicked in at 6000 rpm and faded at 8500 rpm. I did know you get a narrower one by adding some reeds or filing a port, skimming the head or replacing the pipes.
Now I know some of the biker heads on this forum know exactly what I mean. But I doubt if many others would. I suspect this may not have been a troll. When I started biking I was clueless and there was no internet around to look up back then. People do bandy around terminology without explanation. How many people in Aces High heard of vulching, spit dweebs, jabos, alt monkeys and the like before they came to Aces High.
I reckon he did think you could buy a powerband, which in a way you can just not in a box over the counter.
Now where did I leave my old red power band?
-
Sounds like an updated Snipe hunt story, be very quiet and when they run past catch them in the gunny sack. Then take the looong walk home. :lol
I had an new employer ask me to go get him some sparrow legs for lunch, the first thing out of the deli guys mouth was 'You're working for Ben Cordone, huh?'

Those terms were used way before AH.

Gonna have to get me one of those engine-oil bypass kits - flux capacitor too pricey.

It remember me the "Trapalu"(tm) effect invented by Monsieur Trapalu :
(http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/33_1148558773_mrtrapalu.jpg)
One "Trapalu"(tm) give 15 more HP ,two "trapalu"(tm) gives 51 HP (it follow an exponential rule)
(http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/33_1148558951_2trapalu.jpg)
How does it work ?
It modify the air flux
(http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/33_1148558804_trapalu-fmux.jpg)
You can use several to have an impressive power increase :

Be sure to upgrade with the halogen fluid to prevent overheating though.

Basically what it is. Bucket of propwash, high frequency grease, left handed monkey wrench....ALT F-4 for more power........all variations on a theme.

You forgot the self oscillating 9mm wrench for the left hand.

Every single time a new trainee comes to work for me, they get the same treatment;
After about 3 perfectly normal days, trainee comes in to work and everyone is in an uproar. Big problems.
He gets sent out immediately to make an emergency run to the parts distributor for a gallon of blinker fluid, and "do NOT come back without it, kid!!". Then, he gets "while you're at it, I need a coupla new headlight bearings for the boss's car. Don't screw this up, now...."
While he's out (usually pacing around the parts floor trying not to let anyone know he can't find the stuff anywhere), he gets a quick followup call to "get it into gear, get the stuff, and make a quick stop for an 8' length of 3/4" galvanized PVC pipe".
Apparently, I am not a nice man... :D
BTW...my buddy runs the parts distributor, and always keeps the poor kid on the run, up and down aisles, feeling like he's about the dumbest dope in history.
To make up for it, if he lasts through his first month without cracking, we take him out for a cheesesteak and a coupla beers.
Aahhh...the things I'll do for a laugh :lol
-
these type of tricks are sometimes a little amusing, but mostly just a depiction of those who prey on the kindness, trust or ignorance of others in a faceless community to get a cheap laugh. Pure beginners whose sole purpose is to be the lowest on the food chain of scam artists and pranksters, mostly just leaving themselves open to be attacked with thier own methods.
something that takes some skill, alot of balls, and doesnt prey on tose who dont ask for it would be more amusing to me.
like this guy ------------> http://www.ebolamonkeyman.com/
cheap laughs are soon forgotten and gain little to no respect. why not put your efforts into something worthwhile.

No really I have been selling auto parts since 1980 yes MANY MANY MANY people are that stupid and if you can believe it MANY are even dumber.

There we are, boys. Are we all feeling properly chastised? Morally inferior? I know I'm suddenly awash in remorse...what shall I do?
Jeeeez...lighten up, Francis. :rolleyes:
PS...pranks aren't meant to garner 'respect'....just a few harmless laughs.

Right of passage. WTG Goomba! LOL!

What about the DC Vortex Generators.

Cheers, forgot that part.

The subject of the thread makes the point that some folks have poorly developed senses of humor. It references a good clean practical joke where nobody was harmed, both the now infamous MOAT and this silly fellow who swallowed his hook with not just the line and sinker but the whole dang rod.
That was funny enough but then some rather...ummm...sensitive persons...responded in the way they did in this thread, I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry. I guess if I were to try and see the world in that way I might have gotten upset over the MOAT too, but who wants to live their lives like that? At least I am heartened that most folks read this, had a laugh, added to the fun and moved on without tears.

Heh, yep.
"listen go over to #1 hangar, get me 1 gallon of prop wash, stop by #4 hangar and get a spritz bottle of rotor wash (the clear stuff, not that dirty gritty stuff). Before you get back here, make a quick stop at stores and grab me some intake grease and a half dozen short circuits, all the ones here are too long."
"Don't come back here today without this stuff. I need it."
Didn't see her until the next morning at 0:800
She blew in my ear, spritzed me with water from a spray bottle, wiped vasilene in my hand, and handed me 6 C cell batteries all wired together.
LOL..She turned out to be one of the best F-18 Riggers (mechanic) I ever had the pleasure of working with.
I miss my old airforce days!

I was a 17 year old Seaman Apprentice fresh outa boot. The second day I'm on the ship the cook 3rd tells me to get him some propwash and clean the skullery. An hour and a complete tour of the ship later...

My new meat mission was gettin Snow Chains for the battalions '88.
(http://www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil/sites/pmtanks/images/m88a2home.jpg)
I brought 'em back, too. Had a pal in tech supply, he punched the stencils and generated the paperwork. Just re-stenciled a planatary drive case and picked it up with the R/T lift and hauled it back up to Service & Evac.
I had no problems after that. ;)

you should note them all down, and when you retire write a book about it. you would make a fortune.

I hope youre not refering to me. I am the first to enjoy a good trickster and often play the tricks myself.
thing is, to play tricks on those who deserve it is fantastic, hereas playig them on a dumbarse or an overly trusting person is sometimes uncalled for.
lighten up yerself eh?

Absolutely.
I just find it amusing that this person is of such high self-esteem to use that as their logo, and then to spew the vulgarity at falling for the ruse. And it's not like there weren't several that tried to point out the truth.
