"Direct-pull brake levers used with any other type of brakes will feel nice and solid when you squeeze them, but you'll need to squeeze twice as hard to stop as you should, so unless you are a lightweight rider with gorilla-like paws, this combination isn't safe either."

£!

where is there a thread purely concerned with sheldon's prose style?

Nah Damo, that one's from CoppiThat

If this was Sheldon Cooper quotes it'd be much better (if a little OT)

It would be even better if it were quotes from early 90's television series "Hangin with Mr Cooper"

Check this one out:

"Boo-yah!"

...amazin'

Or that other early 90's television series "Blossom"

"whooa!"

this isnt how i imagined this would go

Threads on lfgss rarely go how you would imagine they would.

Or that other early 90's television series "Blossom"

"whooa!"

YouTube- Whoa! by Joey L.

Was there a better show in the 90's than this???

Awesome

There was not.

My favourite episode was "Bad Blood", when Dwayne (chubby guy, middle bottom) and Joey (top, left-middle) got into a fight in the toilet.

Good times.

YouTube- Degrassi High Opening theme

Fuck, this thread just got good.

YouTube- Everybody Wants Something Degrassi High

My favourite episode was "Bad Blood", when Dwayne (chubby guy, middle bottom) and Joey (top, left-middle) got into a fight in the toilet.

Good times.

Yeah, that was the when Dwayne came out to say he had AIDS. Confrontational programming for a kids show.

This shit ran a very close second:

My god! Everybody Wants Something!!!

What was the band called again? With Snake in it?

The Zit Remedy!

Dude, is Australia secretly in Canada, and I just didn't know?

Alanis Morisette was on "You Can't do that on Television".

The Zit Remedy... man... So good.

I used to want to be in a wheelchair because of Wheels. Pretty fucked, eh?

what about "around the twist"?

that was shitter than shit.
