Arm Wrestling

[vershy versh]

Any arm wrestlers in here? I won't ever do it as I just have visions of someone busting my arm like Goldblum in The Fly.

I've watched a lot of the pros on YouTube. In my drinking days I'd regularly goad people into arm wrestling each other in the pub. There's something about it I really like.

I once convinced a particularly spindly mate to arm wrestle a bloke who was into martial arts and about a foot taller than him, dunno why he agreed.

3 types of arm wrestle.

.im stronger than you bosh!
.I know a trick you don't know bosh!
.then the interminable wars of attrition only the evenly matched can have. Stupid pointless establishing nothing. A contest of wills prolonged long past the point of absurdity, boredom, irritation

A guy on my MA is super into arm wrestling. He competes at quite a high level but I can't remember soecifics. He was talking about it becoming an Olympic sport which seemed v unlikely to me. He's a former climber and jacked needless to say.

Who would be the Dissensus arm wrestling champ?

Corpse is serious about bodybuilding. His biceps are the size of my thighs. He would be the Champ.

arm wrestling is for idiots who deserve broken wrists, soz boys its a fact

 

[luka]

It's the idiocy I really like. And it taps into this primal but ever present thing, physical strength, power, domination. This repressed awareness, this fear.

Is this true, Corpse? Are you a budding Schwarzenegger?

Who would be the Dissensus arm wrestling champ?

I'd have thought HMG, but maybe his palaeo diet and workout routine is all talk.

 

[Mr. Tea]

I enjoyed this scene in the recent Twin Peaks series, although Mr C has somewhat of an unfair advantage, what with being a demonic spirit in human form.

Proof that it isn't just about muscle



Luka is exaggerating but I can crush walnuts between my buttocks

 

[luka]

I'm not exaggerating much. Youre easily the henchest man here. I've watched heaps of Devon Larrat videos. Dunno why, it's not actually that thrilling.

 

[Corpsey]

Yeah - same goes for other exhibitions of strength, really. Even if some bloke's pulling a Boeing 747 with his teeth it's fundamentally visually boring.

You can't really communicate strength visually, except perhaps in combat. Yes, that's it - the effect of strength. If the effect is that a big heavy concrete ball has been lifted onto the top of a plinth it's not ver impressive.

I thought the birds loved buff blokes?

Corpse, how come you aren't drowning in poon?

 

[vershy versh]

He has the mind, manner and fashion sense of an 18th century aristocrat.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Then I repeat my second question a thousandfold.
