The Definitive Definition Of Form

Compliments of streaker on the HT Forums.

Think of form as a female. General training, higher intensity, more assistant coaches etc. are like buying flowers and writing poetry: they may help, but in the end you still can't understand a damn thing and it's mostly random.

I think the followup was very apt as well. I'm paraphrasing but it was something to the effect of:

"And when you stop, they'll get pissed at you for weeks."

edit: it's describing general training as it effects form

The way form's treated me, I see it more like an ex-girlfriend who feels apathetic about it me and that's the best I can hope for.

Form is like a bitchy girl who's stuck up with herself. You'll never really get anything out of the relationship, and she'll fuck you over in the end.

I prefer to think of form as an unrequited love, one directed at an impossibly unattainable beauty. I gaze upon her, the beautiful Form, and think, "if only she'd notice me...then maybe...just maybe..."

And then I have periodic fantasies about what it'd be like to be with her, which are just swell...while they last. Eventually my fantasies are charred by the combined ugliness of reality and poor self-esteem and I think, "no, she'd never see anything in me. I'd be thrilled if I could just get to the point where I could bring her flowers and write her poetry, but I'm just not good enough. I don't have anything to offer the lovely Form. I don't make enough money, I've put on too much weight, and I've lost too much hair to be desirable. It's foolish to even dream of it."

*sighs*

DAMMIT what's up with all this GIRL bashing?!?!?!

I personally think form is like a MAN (BOY!?!?!). Or at least, maybe a certain ex-boyfriend...

There are men, and then there are boys, terpk. To which are you referring?

In all fairness, I was only bashing bitchy stuck up girls.

Sounds like you need a real man.

I didn't mean me, of course...

I think form is like men. At least when they're "boys" (keep in mind I consider any male shorter than me a "boy" and I'm six feet tall...), they're more malleable...

Maybe I do need a real man.

Nah, I like flirting too much.

O.K., O.K., I got one for ya

Why do women have boobs?
So ya got something to look at while your talkin' to 'em


Just kidding, but anyway, I think your analogy may have been a good one, that is if it weren't so damn confusing...

Wait...Horns never told us about this. So you're saying we have to be cocky, funny, AND tall?? Jeez, this all so difficult...

Incidentally, I'm 6'3", but since my gf sometimes lurks here, I have to behave myself.

Hmmm...why do I see this thread turning into a "let's all hit on terpk" thread very quickly?
