Is Swimfan now trying too hard?

BTW, why did you drop the registered trademark R with a circle from Swimfan?
I’m guessing that things didn’t work out with the planned release of Swimfan brand cosmetics - possible related to that anti-trust suit. The need to protect his trademark is no longer as urgent as it was.

The Swimfan of new is a much more tame version than the pre-banned version. That Swimfan took on everyone from “fatties” to the purple machine (TNT) with a no-holds-barred Jeffrey Ross-esque comedy schtick that had you either falling on the floor laughing or, if you were easily offended, up in arms ready to crawl through your computer screen to wring his neck. Personally, I was and still am quite entertained by his perspective. Doesn’t mean I agree with it all the time, but it’s free entertainment.

contrary to the belief I wasn’t banned due to something I said or offended someone. I was banned because I had two accounts one swimfan and one other. I say things i hear and see around me. Funny though that “fat” comment offends some is actually coming from their best friends not from me, I just decided to say it aloud. I am not faster or better than anyone i am just critisizing pro athletes the way 50000000 people critisize football every sunday. Heck this sunday there will be 50000000 swimfans all around the world.
A message to pros… If a comment from “nobody” about your shoe pisses you off maybe you should look into some other profession.
Why bipolar? it ain’t bipolar just some questions are not stupid, I try to help along the way too.

If I met, I likely forgot. One of the benefits of being a stroke survivor is you meet new people all the time!

I wasn’t stroking but you were about to…
I never seen a middle aged man running to a sub 5 hour HIM and hitting a chick running on the opposite direction at the same time!
Don’t worry we still friends Tom we still friends…

I happen to be a swimmy fan although with the old version I likely would have a big target on my back as I’m slow :stuck_out_tongue: If you put yourself out there, that is what happens. Life goes on…

You mean the evil twin of Slowtwitch that stalks this site like a malevolent shadow, perhaps?

yes me boy, He who shall not be named

Knew I could run into trouble by saying ‘swimfan’ has a fan.

Haven’t read all his posts, but many were funny. Some were border line funny.

What website is that? I think that Dan or whatever can share some of his banner ad royalties at this point (he’s a small step away from popups…) I don’t understand senseless website devotion.

Sorry but I don’t see through you. The word stalking is used in negative conotations so am interested to hear what has upset you? maybe you can message me.

I like slowtwich and also like how lots of folk make links to their websites. So don’t feel out of place making links to the photo pages I spend alot of time on. Everyone on the net has the choice what they view or what sites they click into. Am certain we all have different tastes.

Thought I was on here alot to until looking at how many posts others make.

By the way am feeling good today, took out a little local triathlon and day covered its costs. Focus on all the good things around you and you will succeed beyond your wildest imagination.

Happy training.

You said, “I don’t understand senseless website devotion”.

Have no problem with this comment. Do wonder myself when I spend too much time on something and admit have been a bit passionated about it at times.

Was wasting a bit much time and money on boozing and gambling a few years back. Have too much spare time as not married but getting back into triathlon and all the training has been good for me. The website is me trying to be creative and at the same time promote triathlon as a great sport. And also to keep me active; i get inspired watching triathlons and the photos also inspire me; hope they inspire others also.

The fitness levels are looking as good as ever so might spend less time on the net and more training.

All the best,

G.

As far as I know, your website isn’t the one to which I’m referring. If your site’s primary focus is not ripping on specific ST posters or threads, and it doesn’t have a peculiar obsession with mollusks, then we can be pretty certain that it is not.

What is your website, anyway? Didn’t see it on your profile or on your recent posts.

Anyway, sorry if I inadvertently caused offense with this obscure reference.

Holy crap that is bad music on the youtube video of Kona… I felt like I should do the butter churn…
