Ya good answer - but if wasn't that it would be something else.

I suspect parental neglect/divorce/lack of affection probably plays a role in your hyper competitiveness/subconscious craving for esteem and approval. If you had a doting mother and a strict emotionally aloof father we're talking the Hitler syndrome

This coming from the guy that has a deity ranking. Better to be competitive and post aggressive posts towards other people than take it up the ass and explain why you suck at the game. You spend more time explaining why you don't care about the game than you do actually playing it. I think this isn't an attempt to convince us but rather an attempt to convince yourself. You should learn to deal with your own incompetence and accept it.

P.S. Heard you had a 10% PCR.

Lol, I can really see road rage in your future.

But that's Eyes for you - technically competent, socially impossible.

A song for Eyes
WAITING FOR THE WORLD

Barefooted could've beens, playing snakes and ladders
Climbing up the gravel walk
Welcome them inside and you watch their words collide
As they try to talk
Show them the doors to the cold star chamber
They say "after you"
Then they all take turns waving flags, playing mastermind
Held by a thumbscrew

That's you, yeah you, ah that's you
Waiting for the world to come to you

Spare me the dose of your roneoed wisdom that you think is so new
`Cos good all fate's making monkeys out of small time flunkies
Like you!

That's you, yeah you, ah that's you
Waiting for the world, waiting for the world to come to you.

I do take a fatherly interest in Eye's career in misanthropy.

Eyes would probably like this one - reminds me of his city names
Dawn is breaking in the graveyard

Remember looking at the haunted race bowed down to the storm?
Remember searching for a familiar face with no one there
to mourn?

Staring eyes, silent screams
Plastic tubes to carry fading dreams.
Preacher servant in the hall
Warm blood on the Palace wall.
Those who dine alone in hell
Wearing grief in their lapel
Drop small change in wishing wells
The haunted tears that never fell.
Someone's dragging a ball and chain
Looking for you in the pouring rain
While those who care give silent prayer for lovers going home.

If there was a brickwork surrounding the New York dream
If there were secrets locked in steel
If there was a button you could press on the luck machine
If there was a place for wounds to heal.
If you were born in the barbed wire of your mother's womb
If you were hungry before you died.
If you said you left your bath all clean and white
You know I'd know you lied.
Remember the poet who said it first
He was speaking of you and your difficult birth
How you care and say your prayers for lovers going home.

Drinking from an empty cup
Waiting for a rock to grow
Whispered sounds that can't be heard
And no one knows.
Children who don't mind the rain
Yet have no wish to die
Whatever you are, were, or could've been
You'd feel better if you could cry.

People massing in the street
Trampled heads beneath their feet
Children playing with the dead
Silver spoon stained with red.
Watching through a widow's veil
As Caesar desecrates the Holy Grail.
You sit all alone in your front row seat
You look so small and frail.
You're mud on the feet of the men you damn
You're darkness come too soon.
You should be selling two-bit watches and girly photographs
A masterpiece in ruin.
You're pantomime of old world courtesy
You should have a degree for harlotry
You should be incarcerated in an apartment tower
With no technology!

Did you ever listen to the pole opposed to you?
Did you ever stop to ask?
Did you ever smile to hide your wasted face?
Did you ever lift your mask?

Did you ever walk with your feet on fire?
Did you ever take your place in line?
Did you know you look like you belong
Where wrong is right and right is wrong?

Did you really think that you'd be left
When war is life and life is death?

I'm guessing it isn't a regular cyclist that does tricks, because then I'd agree with Rah.

Some sort of aussie vernacular?

Well that's why I didn't use it originally. You don't know what it is. Its WWII British army slang - Eyes certainly needs a trick cyclist.

ANNNNDDDDD that would be a WHAT?

Insults that have to be explained are somewhat ineffective.

So you're claiming it took you three days to decide to use an obscure insult.
