I used to jump rope for years, especially when I had a gym membership. I have a couple speed ropes hanging in my closet. But ultimately I bought my own gym equipment and cancelled my membership.

Now that I work out primarily at home, I've found that I don't have any areas with high enough ceilings to jump rope, and I…

It wouldn't surprise me if one day he died from over exertion.

Buddy Lee is a legend when it comes to jump rope and fitness education.

Sorry but Buddy Lee; former Olympian wrestler, has had this gig for decades.

You may have jumped past the part that it was meant as a joke, and we were clearly poking fun at silly names.

Well, being snarky and putting people down by speaking over their heads is just as bad.

I'm a snarky person as well. People tell me I use far too large of words and that I'm rather pedantic at times. I agree with all of those statements, so I try to take care when having a conversation with people to not come off as a…

Heh, I see what you did there. I tossed out a post earlier how Aristotle was my favorite "forum" commenter, but it fell flat as well.

I expect that within the first month of the year. How about asking how we'll spice it up a bit? =)

The ole "murder death kill" routine is pretty played out nowadays.

But, but...I'm special. Well, you know, not the mentally slow kind of special, but the "like a snowflake" kind of special.

bah.

Yes yes, drop a pebble in the pond and all that. You're trying to make my commentary that didn't have anything to do with him, about him. There are plenty of other replies regarding his role as a bully or whatever else.

I was making commentary about the social interaction that affects many of us, not just him.

While I agree with your statement, I'm confused on the cosplay part.

Highly unlikely, they get in the hundreds of millions of hits per week. Ad revenue alone likely has made them wealthy enough over the years to not worry about merchandising as a means of survival.

Let's not forget about Sephiroth. Or starting and ending their handle with X's...unless you know, it's part of the name itself....like mine. ;)

"I may have been the one who got beat upbut I sent plenty of kids home in tears. I also realize that I carried those ridiculous insecurities into adulthood. I still see people who attack me as the enemyand I strike back with the same ferocity as that seventh grader I used to be. I'm ashamed of that and embarrassed.…

You mean the price listing of the mouse that was auto input via kinja due to using a direct link to the page of the mouse? Just like what facebook does if you post a url? Or that fact that there is no "sponsored" label at the top of the page next to his name where it's legally mandated that they state it's a paid-for…

If it was a paid-for ad, they are required to state that it was sponsored by Amazon (which you'll see along the top of other sponsored ads), the "ad" in the lower right stating the price of the mouse was an auto input by kinja due to him using a direct link to the mouse's amazon page. His actual article was a…

I would just like to take a moment to respond to how you responded, that instead of being a knee jerk twat like some of the replies thus far, you've been at least willing to view both sides of what's being discussed. Good on you, most appreciated.

One of my favorite "forum" commenters; Aristotle, once said, "It is the…

"...their readers faces, who eat it all up regardless of effort or quality, simply because they're ignorant, easily amused sycophantic, suck-up sheep"

And yet here you are, clearly the exception to this, so much so that you're reading an article that's an ad, and putting forth the effort to read through the comments on…

I won't disagree, it's a pretty big lull in my day atm.
