Keyboard cowboys

[jordy]

So, with the advent of the forums came the introduction of the keyboard cowboy. We've all dealt with it. You know, the tough guys talking crazy shit from the safety of mom's house, dad's house, wife's house, you know, the ones who wouldn't say shit if they had a mouth full of it in person. We've all watched them for years. You know who they are. They might float some money around to make sure they have somebody tougher on their 6, but they're still easy to spot.

The friends that chime in saying how much different they are in person... One of my favorites was one, he's a big deal in his own mind, and made a bunch of posts about how he'd run into a tough guy and they'd just look at the ground when they encountered him. Pure comedy. Everybody thinks they're a tough guy until they meet one. I look forward to introducing that skinny armed douche to the ground.

I've dealt with a few. Some actually think we're cool. That's funny shit. If you're going to talk shit behind a keyboard, there should be repercussions. If you decide to start playing in the realm of somebody's livelihood, all bets are off. It's becoming more rampant as time goes on. Fifteen years ago, we'd photoshop someone all over the place, meet up, have drinks and it was good. Now,the pussies have taken over.

There are some people who should never show their face in public ever. Most don't post here anymore. Some of us have a great memory. :smilies_mit_hut019:

Well that's why Al Gore invented the internet right? So douchebags like him can hide behind their firewall?

What amazes me more are the ones who gladly drink the drinks you provided and ate the food you provided yet can talk shit about you. Fuck those douchebags. I have no use for people who aren't grateful for the things you've done for them. Zero use. Haste la bye bye scum bag [emoji1596]

Everybody's a tough guy until they get punched in the face!

Yes....I know that's not the exact quote of Mike Tyson but I made it relevant to the thread. :D

What a train wreck that guy became lol

He had the world by the nut sack (making it relevant to this tread) but couldn't handle the fame and fortune.

Don King really didn't do him any favors as he was pretty much a freeloading douche as noted above, just in it for the money and free drinks. :smilies_mit_hut019:

Don Cash is King was a brutal money slayer. Ruthless, smart as fuck and never gave a fuck about anyone but himself.

I aspire to be like him LOL

Just general observations from too much time once spent on forums. It seems to have not gotten any better, and it's not just the boating forums.

I don't know why people have to be so abraisive....but I have this thought....television....seems every show they are all one line smart asses...in the real world , talk shit, get hit... the pussies have tried to change it to freedom of speech...if some one is a fuc'n idiot....and they can whip my ass...I leave them alone....kind of a chain of power... if I can whip their ass... I fuc with them.....at 65.... I don't fuc with anyone any more.....it also comes with the way people are raised...in school, some one fuc'd with you,.. you wait'd for them at the gate to get in the school yard... and it was on...no guns....and no mobbing 5 on one..now...little punk ass bitches all have guns and hang in groups...

Scroll down and read the comments on YOUTUBE videos when you have time...

It doesn't matter WHAT the subject matter is, it could be a kitten playing with a ball of yarn and SOMEONE will make nasty/abrasive/crass comments TO or ABOUT a complete stranger that they know nothing about...

"Social Media" isn't making life better in all ways for certain...

Keyboard cowboys have moved into their second generation. And like you said JP, not just boat forums, pretty much any forum(or form of social media) I've been in. Some make boat forums look like cheeze whiz in that regard though.
Yup, there's tons of sheep that can't or simply don't seperate BS from reality.
