So, Heavymetal45 you do understand people could say it like this, "Just standing around holding a 40."

there is more than one 40 though, there is a left 40 and a right 40, like socks lol

slyfox (Jun 18, 2010 at 8:16)

Good point, but then wouldn't Fox name their forks 36's or 40's instead of 36 of 40? lol

mojoloz (Jun 18, 2010 at 9:31)

no because they are just how big the stanchions are, if you go on there website or mojo its not 40 36 or 40's 36's, they put 40mm and 36mm.

xpirimint (Jul 1, 2010 at 14:52)

it's not a set of boxxers!!!!! it's one boxxer!!! is she holding more than one fork? It's not a freaking set

the sentence should be "just standing around holding a boxxer." my god...

and you know she's holding a 40, right?

ya a pair of 40's. Because she obviously has two. w/e some people never learn, or care.

makonastinky (Jul 26, 2010 at 8:38)

well , "those are nice forks" people are saying fox 40's are nice forks, if they said "that's a nice fork" they would be talking about the one in the picture... but i dont know why someone would say pair, i would say like, those are nice forks, and sure if someone like you would read you would reply or atleast think to yourself, that i am not using correct grammar....

pong101 (Aug 30, 2010 at 3:06)

right. im putting this straight. if you ask anyone at a bike shop, then they say forks reffering to one SET of forks. it is one set, just like you say sunglasses. you dont say ''hey guys, check out my new sunglass'' do you? no. ask any proffesional rider. its forks. get it right.

Alekoubas (Aug 30, 2010 at 6:26)

pong101 is right... the example with the sunglasses was very clear.... whoever negged him probably had nothing to answer back so just went "well ye..no but...aww hell i'm still neg proping you"... by the way this does look kinda photoshopped....still an amazing idea though....

kambc (Aug 30, 2010 at 12:15)

you guys are all blind.....all i see is a 10....mmmmmmm cougar

+ 19

Demo-250 (Aug 30, 2010 at 12:24)

So pong - would you say to your friend "So I just got a new forks?" No, you would say "I got a new FORK"

Your example is stupid since sunglasses only exists in the plural form. Fork on the other hand, exists in both plural and singular... so why the hell would you use "forks" when there is obviously only one. SET of forks? No, you dont have a set of forks! You kids are unbelievable.

Bicycle fork
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"A bicycle fork is the portion of a bicycle that holds the front wheel and allows the rider to steer and balance the bicycle."

^^Notice it doesn't say, "a SET OF BICYCLE FORKS is the portion that holds ...."

Anyone who thinks it's forks should hit up grade three again.

Next up for debate: Is it a pair of pants, or is it just pant?
(Obviously this is a joke, it's like the sunglasses thing. It only exists in plural form... so please don't actually discuss it)

sammrose10 (Aug 30, 2010 at 13:14)

PONG... I have worked in 3 bike shops, currently still working in one... YOURFULLOFSHIT. It's a fork. There is ONE FORK which consists of both stanchions, lowers, steer tube and crown... You were talkin to a noob if you really heard that in a shop... I feel sorry for their customer service reputation if that really is the case

Becker77 (Aug 30, 2010 at 16:56)

holy shit i was just reading this aruments and i thought all the comments were old i then realized it still going on i think everyone should just take a breather and stop arguing

slyfox (Aug 30, 2010 at 17:00)

I agree, but it just annoys the hell out of me how people are still arguing the it's forks. I want to put it to an end now because this argument always pops up all over the forum. Really Mad

downhiller900sl (Aug 30, 2010 at 22:44)

I want to all the "FORKS" guys to understand something: IT IS f*ckING FORK, even in spanish is FORK (horquilla -- Reads: or-kee-ya) NOT FORKS (horquillas -- Reads: or-kee-yas) so can you accept that the correct term for the par that holds your front wheel is actualy in singular and that is not a SET unlike wheels, cogs, tubes, tires, spokes, hubs, rims, levers, brakes shifters or anithing that you can imagine that comes in the presentation of SET. Thanks too all! Salute

Demo-250 (Aug 31, 2010 at 0:13)

^^ This guy doesn't even speak English as a first language and even he knows the correct term. How hard is it to get it in your head guys? There is only one fork on your bike. Read my previous post, there is absolutely no argument you can say to that without looking like an idiot.

Case closed.

pong101 (Aug 31, 2010 at 1:37)

or why dont we just say it can be used in both terms? because its alright to say fork, or forks, as you can say to your friend either ''i got a new fork'' or ''i got some new forks'' right? ive heard both, as i do work part time in a bike shop. maybe its different in america to england? because everyone from england is arguing forks and everyone from america is arguing fork, so it must be that? case closed...

urbanDJ5 (Aug 31, 2010 at 1:47)

reading this i said fork so many times (and forks) that it doesnt even sound like a real world coming out of my mouth anymore

Alekoubas (Aug 31, 2010 at 2:43)

well why can't it be a pair of forks too?? like the pair of jeans or sunglasses we mentioned above??? yeah they only exist in plural form but seriously what it the f*ckin difference with the fork thing??? in all three cases we are reffering to ONE object....just cuz you don't say it as much it doesn't mean that its wrong....i say forks more often so now fork sounds wrong to me.... and i can just support my oppinion by saying it exists in plural form too as DEMO-250 continiously said to support his... i don't think either of them is wrong and we should all just accept that.... so i say we close this stupid argument cuz it just not leading anywhere nobody is gonna admit his mistake....

Alekoubas (Aug 31, 2010 at 2:51)

oh and btw in Greek we say (πιρουνι - pirouni) which is fork in singular form.... but still i wouldn't compare Greek to English cuz that would be very VERY stupid and would have no meaning at all... and that also goes for comparing spanish to english my friend downhiller900sl....

pong101 (Aug 31, 2010 at 3:10)

haha. im greek too. but i dont speak it Frown

Demo-250 (Aug 31, 2010 at 11:19)

@Alekoubas

Your argument is about as bad as the sunglasses one. Actually it is probably worse... the sunglasses one actually made some sense, all you did was contradict yourself. I don't feel like pointing out all the flaws in what you are saying, but I will so that perhaps you will gain a better grasp of the English language.

"well why can't it be a pair of forks too??" - It can, no one is saying that it can't. It just simply isn't in this case. If she was holding 2 Fox 40s, then yes, it would be a PAIR of them.

"in all three cases we are reffering to ONE object" ..... "i can just support my oppinion by saying it exists in plural form too" - Uhm... really? How is FORKS referring to one object? If that was the case, the word fork would not exist and it would be another "sunglasses" case. Perhaps you don't realize the meaning behind plural words. They are used to represent more than one of something. Words like sunglasses, which we already talked about, exist in one form only, which effectively forces the use of it for both singular and plural meanings. But since FORK has a separate word for the plural meaning, that tells us that it must only be used when we have more than one.

stinker (Aug 31, 2010 at 12:03)

everyone shut up!!!!!! its just a freakin fork

Alekoubas (Aug 31, 2010 at 12:13)

alright this does make more sense to be honest.... but also another thing just so i can get a better "grasp" of the english language.... How is PANTS or even Trousers reffering to one object??? why can't it be the same with forks??? also im not saying that fork is a wrong way to describe the object.... grammatically it does sound more correct.... and since as you said there is a separate word for the plural meaning, i don't think there's any doubt that saying fork is the correct way....but why the hell is pants any different??? seriously i totally get your point but i just think its completely a matter of speech... the sunglasses example is actually worse because if you think about it you are reffering to the lenses, which do come in pairs....so using it in plural and not in singular form makes more sense...on the other hand i insist that forks is the same case as pants, with the difference that in the "fork-forks" case we can reffer to one object both in singular (fork) or in plural (set of forks) form.... dude this is never ending im telling you....

Demo-250 (Aug 31, 2010 at 13:48)

True, I wish I never commented on it to begin with. Every time I go on pinkbike now I see new comments in my dashboard, lol.

But as for your pants question: The reason that pants is referring to one object is because there is no way to say it as a singular without actually having to use the plural form of the word. You can't say that "I'm wearing pant" or "I just bought new PANT." You use the plural to describe both singular and plural in this case. The only way that "pant" becomes a usable word is if you are talking about a leg of your pants. You could then say "I went biking and ripped my pant leg." Although I think the correct way of saying it is still supposed to be "I ripped the leg of my pants."

"i don't think there's any doubt that saying fork is the correct way....but why the hell is pants any different???" - I honestly have no idea why this is the case. It's the silly things like this that make English so hard to master as a second language. We have a lot of stupid rules. This whole argument can, and should be blamed on the fact that the English language is ridiculous.

In conclusion: The grammatically correct way to refer to a single fork is indeed "fork," but due to the complex nature of the English language, we have many, MANY variances in the way we talk and the way we describe things. So if you want to call it forks, then go ahead, we all know what you mean by it... but some of us, (me included) like to make a big deal out of nothing because we have nothing better to do when we aren't out on the bike. Wink

rippin-norco (Aug 31, 2010 at 14:19)

im neg proping you for taking up like half of my dashboard. thanks.

Demo-250 (Aug 31, 2010 at 14:23)

You don't need to tell me about it, just do it... I could care less. And it's not like it's stuck there forever, just hit the little x and there you go, your dashboard is back to normal.

Alekoubas (Aug 31, 2010 at 14:47)

good enough for me.... yeah i don't even know why i'm arguing about this, english isn't even my native language.... anyway couldn't agree more with the conclusion so we're good.... rippin-norco, you realise this should concern you a lot more than it should me right (?), but you are complaining we are taking up your dashboard space... nice...

personally iv never heard anyone say 'i need a new fork' or 'my fork is soo good' just sounds retarded

please.......just don't.

xpirimint (Sep 1, 2010 at 22:53)

Stevie so saying "I need some new forks" sounds better? Well that's true, since that would mean you need multiple forks which is always better than just one fork

pong101 (Sep 2, 2010 at 1:11)

its different for british and americans. okay? :L

makonastinky (Oct 1, 2010 at 7:13)

u must not know what your talking bout and i was trying to think of a way to prove tht these are forks, just like pants so ur wrong.. its pants and 40's bcuz there are 2 40's on the fox 40's becuase there are TWO 40 millimeter bootS so its fox 40's so you need to just.......shut the f*ck UP

Demo-250 (Oct 1, 2010 at 10:22)

Think what you want, I'm tired of this stupid argument. Yes it has two fork legs.

In case you missed that: FORK legs. It does not, however, have 2 FORKS legs.

makonastinky (Oct 1, 2010 at 17:50)

yep two 40 mm fork legs so to shorten it, two 40's

slyfox (Oct 1, 2010 at 18:14)

I'm getting a mod to delete all this. finally it will be over

Demo-250 (Oct 1, 2010 at 19:21)

@makonastinky - You missed the point of the entire argument. No one was talking about whether it was called 40s or 40. The whole disagreement was about the word fork in general. You dont call it forks...

RapidRob (Oct 2, 2010 at 9:05)

No..we can't delete this bullsh*t. Demo-250's first few posts made me hit the ground laughing, the ol' bag is holding a single fork kids

gnarkore (Oct 2, 2010 at 17:04)

"FORKS" Can be used when either talking in general or when there is more than one.
"Fork" is when you are talking specific.

+ 10

rossspecialized (Oct 3, 2010 at 8:40)

right sumone needs to end this argument Fork = As a piece of cutlery or kitchenware, a fork is a tool consisting of a handle with several narrow tines (at least three or four, but never just two as in the photograph) on one end. The fork, as an eating utensil, has been a feature primarily of the West, whereas in East Asia chopsticks have been more prevalent. Today, forks are increasingly available throughout East Asia. The utensil (usually metal) is used to lift food to the mouth or to hold food in place while cooking or cutting it. Food can be lifted either by spearing it on the tines, or by holding it on top of the tines, which are often curved slightly. For this latter function, in the American style of fork etiquette, the fork is held with tines curving up; however, in continental style, the fork is held with the tines curving down.

your all wrong

makonastinky (Oct 5, 2010 at 14:32)

mtxfreestyle13 that wasnt aimed towards u , i was reenstating your point empohasising that it was correct, its not pant its pants and its forks, but also could be said as fork, ex. "my fork is f*cked up" and the same sentence but using forks "my forks are f*cked up" incorect ex. "my forks is f*cked up "and my fork are f*cked up" but the first and second examples are grammicaly correct, and it would be 40's but thats another story, ex. "i have a pair of fox 40 forks" ex #2 "i have a pair of fox 40s" hey what do you know, im correct so argument CLOSED

Demo-250 (Oct 5, 2010 at 18:44)

this have been going on exceptionally Big Grin

rossspecialized (Oct 7, 2010 at 3:08)

makonastinky are you stupid.. of course i know that this stupid argument is about forks or fork that you ride with.. But i thought that seen as everyone else is being immature by arguing about it like kids then why not post a comment like that... All i did was type Fork into wikipedia and thats what they came up with.. Also isnt it down to the person to call it watever they want.. Instead of saying ' oh im gonna call it fork today because the guy on pinkbike said that thats how i should say it.. hmmm

downhiller900sl (Oct 7, 2010 at 20:16)

rossspecialized It's not supposed to let people call things what ever they want due to the fact that things are called only one way (to be exact, the CORRECT one) and that is what has been discussed in this, lets say, thread that was generated. I stand for the term FORK, I have my reasons and I think that is the correct way to refer to that part.

The other point I want to argue with you is that this is not a "kids fight", some may say comments that are stupid, nonsense, dont have any knowledge to support them or are immature, but the core of the discussion is my first statement in this post, referring to things right.

By thinking the way you do (let people cant call things what ever they want) is when the language being Spanish (my native), English, Greek or whatever are being distorted and corrupted, and then you see kids in the forums writing things like "youre bike" instead of "your bike" or "the bike is their" instead of "the bike is there", and I can keep going on and on, but you can get the point.

By the way I'm not flaming you or anyone, just want to state that this, to me, is not an immature discussion at all, immature is to say things wrong only because it sounds "right to me".

To support my statement I searched Wikipedia and found this:

Bicycle fork
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A bicycle fork is the portion of a bicycle that holds the front wheel and allows the rider to steer and balance the bicycle. A fork consists of two fork ends which hold the front wheel axle, two blades which join at a fork crown, and a steerer or steering tube to which the handlebars attach (via a stem) allowing the user to steer the bicycle. The steerer of the fork interfaces with the frame via a set of bearings known as a headset mounted in the head tube.

Well, depends what side your on. I enjoy a 10 year old coming on here saying shit and then ownin the f*ck out of him

And to collin- then leave

Colin994 (Oct 13, 2010 at 18:00)

*colin bud. and damn do i wish i could but every time i go to my dashboard i see a new comment here soooo you have basically damned us all without hope of getting out
much obliged

slyfox (Oct 13, 2010 at 18:18)

no one made you comment on it

Colin994 (Oct 13, 2010 at 18:25)

alright i think its safe to say everyone is against you here considering you started all this so dont even try to bash me

slyfox (Oct 13, 2010 at 18:41)

not trying to bash you just pointing out so u or anyone else cant bitch about notifications

Colin994 (Oct 13, 2010 at 19:18)

fair enough but that doesnt change the fact that we do get them

slyfox (Oct 13, 2010 at 19:28)

yup

how bout both of us stop commenting? lol

Colin994 (Oct 13, 2010 at 19:37)

sounds like a deal

:virtual handshake:

xpirimint (Oct 14, 2010 at 14:24)

bump

downhiller900sl (Oct 16, 2010 at 21:55)

jajajajajajaja dash notification right here colin! Big Grin

moongose (Oct 27, 2010 at 2:38)

its a pair/set of forks

downhiller900sl (Oct 27, 2010 at 9:31)

holy f*ck! its ONE FORK, not a set, not a pair (pair stands for 2 of the same)

moongose (Oct 27, 2010 at 11:04)

its a pair, like trousers. you dont wear a trouser you wear a pair of trousers or shorts

Demo-250 (Oct 27, 2010 at 12:23)

Honestly, just STFU; you are making yourself look like a moron. I already explained in my previous post that pants (trousers / shorts) is used as singular and plural because it doesn't have a separate singular variation. Fork on the other hand, which is singular, has it's own separate word for the plural version; so why the f*ck would we use "forks" (the plural version) to represent SINGULAR when there is obviously a singular variation just waiting to be used?

I'll put this into English that even moongose can understand: It not called forks, it actually called fork.

Yes, that was a shot at your intelligence.
No, you should not reply until you complete grade 8 English.
No, I'm not usually a dick.
Yes, I'm only a dick right now because I'm tired of this idiotic argument.

/end discussion

Colin994 (Oct 27, 2010 at 12:53)

moongose youre a f*cking piece of shit this actually stopped for quite a while and you had to bring it back up. honestly EVERYONE SHUT THE f*ck UP ABOUT IT. ITS OVER NOW STOP

downhiller900sl (Oct 27, 2010 at 13:04)

@demo-250 +1

moongose (Oct 27, 2010 at 13:43)

nahh its defo forks. but tbh everyones is going to understand you whatever of the two you say so its a non issue really.

And demo-251 "it not called forks, it actually called fork" isn't in any way proper english

Demo-250 (Oct 27, 2010 at 14:37)

I was under the impression you liked to use incorrect English, which is why I worded it in a way even you could understand. Smile

Now if you could read, I kindly said not to reply until you have completed grade 8 English.

I think you need an even simpler explanation though, so here goes. "It called fork, fork go on bike, you ride bike."

"nah its defo" "everyones is" "tbh" "whatever of the two you say"

You are definitely the last person who can comment on what the correct way to say something is. That was a fine display of your perfected English skills.

rossspecialized (Oct 27, 2010 at 15:28)

^ this guy is good

makonastinky (Oct 27, 2010 at 16:11)

so, i can ride a bike with forks on it? wait , me can ride bike with fork?

just felt like asking from demo-259's comment

Demo-250 (Oct 27, 2010 at 16:38)

Sure, you can ride a bike with forks on it all you want. Not sure how you plan on attaching them.... weld on a second headtube perhaps?

downhiller900sl (Oct 27, 2010 at 18:25)

demo-250 rocks! is good to be on the same side. I think that even if makonastinky can get a second headtube welded its going to even more difficult (or may I say difficulter Smile

) to get only one handlebar to turn 2 FORKS (now its the time to use that word) or to control 2 handlebars with only 2 hands. After reading all of this comments I can be proud to know how to speak/write in english not being my native language, and that some guy born in England (country where english was born) just cant

moongose (Oct 28, 2010 at 14:10)

Demo 250 I have no idea what grade 8 English is; because in England we do grades in music and not subjects. But anyway i'm guessing that if you had done English to a high-ish level you would probably have studied dialects/idiolect. So as you noticed, "tbh" "nah its defo" both are not standard English. However they are idiolect.

Whereas (as i said previously) "it called fork, fork go on bike, you ride bike" just isn't any where near to being right.

Also, I consulted the internet: and you are right that it is fork due to the fact that it is a single entity. However I probably will continue to call them forks because thats what I know them as and its what everyone I know calls them.

Demo-250 (Oct 28, 2010 at 15:14)

In Canada, grades are used to refer to how many years of public school you have completed. Kindergarten - Grade 12.

For the second time, you have failed to comprehend my "incorrect English" as a joke. I wrote it that way in reference to your incorrect use of the word "forks." I basically implied, that since you like to use other words incorrectly, you may as well just type like that.

Anyways, it seems we've come to an agreement.

/end discussion

xpirimint (Oct 28, 2010 at 15:58)

are you sure demo? I'm pretty sure this thing is just gonna go on and on and on and on and on

and on

and so fourth.

The woman in this picture is holding a fork. Shes not holding forks, she is just holding one fork. where is the 2nd fork? is each individual stanchion a fork? no...it takes 2 to make one fork. So there you have it. The official end of this argument.

Although we should continue on with something and make it in the guiness book of world records with fr3erid3r and Demo-250 as the ones who officially ended this discussion.

Demo-250 (Oct 28, 2010 at 16:49)

Haha, +1

makonastinky (Oct 28, 2010 at 17:14)

ok so what do i call a lefty? a fo , becuase u need 2 stanchions to be fork correct?

Demo-250 (Oct 28, 2010 at 17:18)

I call it your mother. Oh snap

Warning:
All forms of serious communication will now be left behind as this argument has proved itself useless.

makonastinky (Oct 28, 2010 at 17:26)

forks fork same shit i really dont care cuz im high

xpirimint (Oct 28, 2010 at 19:33)

this is getting interesting again

moongose (Oct 29, 2010 at 1:17)

Demo 250, i saw that it was a joke, i was just deliberately being a dick. At least now i can go back to my usual, awfully typed English

downhiller900sl (Oct 29, 2010 at 9:10)

hahahahahaha the lefty comment was genius! really the guiness record idea is good, lets make it happen hahahaha

moongose (Oct 29, 2010 at 14:16)

the lefty thing would be a prong. except that sounds really odd when you use it in a scentence: "is the lefty prong any good?"

RapidRob (Oct 29, 2010 at 15:00)

If you've commented or read down to this point....you need to get laid or go ride.

downhiller900sl (Oct 29, 2010 at 22:30)

lets get laid, cause youve commented and read too

xpirimint (Oct 30, 2010 at 0:51)

you guys should lay each other. That'd fix this

stinker (Nov 2, 2010 at 19:36)

hahahaha rapidrob +1

dirtbagbiker (Nov 3, 2010 at 14:26)

I WOULD SOOO MUG THAT GRANNY!!!!!!

nuttyjimbob (Nov 22, 2010 at 11:14)

dose it really matter weather its fork or forks or 40 or 40s NO! so stop being so sad ffs! what has this world come to!

moongose (Nov 22, 2010 at 11:50)

nuttyjimbob, these comments were left quite a while ago, so you're just trying to restart an argument that has already finished. And as you can proabably see, it did matter to a lot of people about whether it was fork or forks, and i am included in that.

Colin994 (Nov 22, 2010 at 13:05)

nuttyjimbob i will destroy you.

nuttyjimbob (Nov 22, 2010 at 13:42)

oh well

just saying my part hahaha

DaddyBoy (Dec 4, 2010 at 8:54)

omg...

nosnibor (Dec 6, 2010 at 21:34)

it was my birthday last night, massivly wasted. stop commenting on this, its getting anoying. i don't care if i spelt things wrong. its 5 am in england. night night

Colin994 (Dec 6, 2010 at 21:51)

......what?

pierpoint33 (Dec 7, 2010 at 7:43)

It was nosnibor's party last night and he was "heavily wasted" and he commented saying that cause this is actually annoying!, happy birthday nosnibor bud Beer

Colin994 (Dec 7, 2010 at 12:51)

so what youre saying is that it was totally unnecessary and just a way to brag about underage drinking. thanks but its really not uncommon in the slightest bit. but congratulations and happy birthday?

pierpoint33 (Dec 7, 2010 at 13:30)

Aha you just made a tit out of your self there, he is 19 in England you have to be 18+ to drink so obviously he is not an underage drinker!

moongose (Dec 7, 2010 at 13:32)

+1 to that

downhiller900sl (Dec 7, 2010 at 19:39)

can we stop commenting here? is stupid to talk about drinking in a thread that was a legend in terms of length and stupidity, so dont dig this up in this way

makonastinky (Dec 8, 2010 at 13:51)

i think we should just call them whatever u feel lioke so forget about it

axlecracker (Dec 14, 2010 at 11:55)

Ya whatever you want to say is fine really, I bought a new fork--or; I bought some new forks. I wouldn't jump on someone if they said it in a way I didn't.

pierpoint33 (Dec 14, 2010 at 12:17)

Aha punching your mate because he said forks would be funny lol, "I just bought some new forks" its not FORKS its Fork for f*ck sake, 'WHACK'. To be honest you's are all idiots for keep on arguing about this it doesnt matter if it is fork or forks all we know is its a sweet ass set of fox 40's.

dirtbagbiker (Dec 14, 2010 at 12:27)

dude shut up, stop bringing back an old argument you prick.

pierpoint33 (Dec 14, 2010 at 12:39)

Im not bringing it back you f*cking doylem.

dirtbagbiker (Dec 14, 2010 at 13:42)

don't be a twat you f*cking ass wipe.

Colin994 (Dec 14, 2010 at 14:29)

pierpoint33 shut the f*ck up youre f*cking retarded. no one knows what the f*ck a doylem is so youre pussy attempt at an insult was just a waste of youre time. get out this ended quite some time ago

moongose (Dec 15, 2010 at 1:15)

Colin994, I had do idea what a doylem was either so i had a quick loooook on the ole urban dictionary. Apparently a "doylem" is a"Geordie word meaning a complete and utter idiot". Doesn't really sound like much of an insult to me.

xpirimint (Dec 15, 2010 at 2:12)

People are just getting angrier as i keep scrolling down hahaha this is so much fun reading this now ever since I decided to NOT GIVE A f*ck!

Fork, not forks Smile

pierpoint33 (Dec 15, 2010 at 8:23)

Why would i want to offend someone over the internet though, so that actually makes you a doylem.And hows a f*cking ass whipe an insult, ive had better insults told me from a teacher, and retarded is the shittest of shit comebacks, and yes if i wanted my comeback i would have wiped it off of your mum's flaps.

moongose (Dec 15, 2010 at 8:33)

yer however "ass wipe" and "retard" are generally known insults. Whereas you used doylem which is from the scummy northeastern corner of England. And is only known by people from that general area. btw a doylem sounds like the kind of thing a teacher would use as an insult.

pierpoint33 (Dec 15, 2010 at 8:40)

Ahahaha worst comeback i have heard in my life especially since you live right next to LONDON you wanker, id rather live in Pakistan then London and thats the biggest shit hole ever.

dirtbagbiker (Dec 15, 2010 at 8:47)

bottom line is that pierpoint33 is a f*cking twat.

moongose (Dec 15, 2010 at 9:14)

Hmmn London or Newcastle? I think i'd pick London everyday of the week. Also I don't actually live in London, so yer good one. And the reason you would rather live in Pakistan is because you live in Newcastle So anywhere is a step up from that. Oh yer and not everything is a comeback, before this comment i was simply stating a fairly obvious point. But since being a geordie you probably prefer to talk in terms of fights or arguments.

pierpoint33 (Dec 15, 2010 at 9:44)

I didnt say you lived in london you dopey f*ck, and i definitely would fight you instead of argue over the internet your a wanker. And there is nothing wrong with newcastle if you had ever been their you would know that!

tombutlerr (Dec 15, 2010 at 11:25)

im pretty sure its 'forks' not 'fork'. If i went into a bike shop and said- "can you fix these fork?" makes no scence.

Demo-250 (Dec 15, 2010 at 11:47)

The lack of common sense in this discussion is worrying.

"These" is always referring to a plural object, so of course it doesn't sound right to use it with a singular object.

"Fork" is a singular variation, so you would need to use a word that properly refers to a singular object.
ex. "Fix my fork." - "Fix this fork." - "Fix that fork."

tombutlerr (Dec 15, 2010 at 12:10)

jesus, your like one of those facebook nerds that correct peoples spellings. a pair of forks as in a pair of trousers.

moongose (Dec 15, 2010 at 12:15)

Tom; go die in a hole. also
*people's
*. A pair of forks

dirtbagbiker (Dec 15, 2010 at 12:32)

no dude its a pair of fork.

moongose (Dec 15, 2010 at 12:35)

it physically cannot be a pair of fork. if you read that sentence again before you pressed the submit button, you would'v realised that

Colin994 (Dec 15, 2010 at 20:04)

i think this is recap # 1000. enough is enough i mean really. and pierpoint333, no matter what you say no one is going to side with you so just save yourself the effort and just get out of here while youre down

anthonysjb (Dec 16, 2010 at 14:23)

NO ONE CARES IF ITS FORKS OR A FORK. FFS.

moongose (Dec 16, 2010 at 14:24)

clearly anthony; we did

downhiller900sl (Dec 16, 2010 at 21:46)

so true

pawl (Dec 16, 2010 at 22:13)

cool fork

pierpoint33 (Dec 17, 2010 at 8:39)

"You have a lovely set of boob!", make sense to you, cause it doesn't to me it should be boob'S because there are two and not one, just like a set of forkS!

moongose (Dec 17, 2010 at 9:00)

yes that is because there is two boobs, but unless you have a very special bike (which you dont) there is a fork. now kindly f*ck off

pierpoint33 (Dec 17, 2010 at 9:12)

Why would i f*ck off, this is the internet, and it is forks because you get to fork legs you idiot, and two fork legs equals forks, think what you like but thats my opinion.

makonastinky (Dec 17, 2010 at 9:49)

wow i thought this ended... really your only the winner if you just end it. so no body loses averyone is right just leave this! no one reply! just forget about this!

kieran95 (Dec 17, 2010 at 11:23)

Fork

makonastinky (Dec 17, 2010 at 12:05)

goood for you now everyone forget about it

downhiller900sl (Dec 17, 2010 at 19:58)

now that we got on the FORK vs FORKS bandwagon again, i may say that it is said fork, even though there are TWO legs, those TWO legs conform ONLY ONE ELEMENT OR THING. Thanks to all, Don't give a shit on this any more.

xpirimint (Dec 17, 2010 at 20:27)

pierpoint33...you're not understanding

how many legs legs does a fork have? a fork has 2 legs.

Say you're driving, and all of a sudden theres a fork in the road?

ugh why am I even wasting my time...this is my official resigning from this argument. It's so pointless

moongose (Dec 18, 2010 at 0:17)

if there's a fork in the road, you'l get a puncture lol.

also think of a tree, there are many branches but we don't say look at that trees, we say look at that tree.

makonastinky (Dec 18, 2010 at 5:51)

forget the tree forget the fork(s)

moongose (Dec 18, 2010 at 10:09)

I quite liked my tree example

makonastinky (Dec 18, 2010 at 12:15)

ok good for u, now this should be over!

philipstonier (Dec 19, 2010 at 12:47)

its fork! who ever says forks is a queer

pierpoint33 (Dec 19, 2010 at 12:54)

I say forks mostly but im not a queer!

moongose (Dec 19, 2010 at 13:51)

well Mr Pierpoint33 i would have said that from seeing your above comments, you almost certainly are a queer

pierpoint33 (Dec 19, 2010 at 13:59)

How do you think i am a queer because of some comments i left, refering to the fork forks argument, i didnt say oh yeah i love sticking fork legs up my arse crack and it feels so good, so i dont know how!

makonastinky (Dec 19, 2010 at 17:17)

jesus christ for get about it, just type it as fork(s) so it would be whichever way the person is reading it..

Colin994 (Dec 19, 2010 at 18:26)

"oh yeah i love sticking fork legs up my arse crack and it feels so good" - pierpoint33

well i think now its safe to say pierpoint33 is a queer.

oh and f*ckYOU philipstonier

Demo-250 (Dec 20, 2010 at 1:00)

*Insert useless generic comment.*

pierpoint33 (Dec 20, 2010 at 15:25)

Colin your dislexik or just very lazy and cant be bothered in reading 2 lines, it said "i didnt say oh yeah i love sticking fork legs up my arse crack and it feels so good, so i dont know how!", so shut up and go back to sleep!

Colin994 (Dec 20, 2010 at 16:06)

oh, but you just did. clearly someone didnt get the joke

philipstonier (Dec 20, 2010 at 18:34)

and f*ck you too queer boy

thecheeseychizter (Dec 22, 2010 at 3:23)

like a lot of things, americans and brits pronounce things differently, over here it is pronounced "forks" (usually) and over the pond in the us its pronounced "fork" (again, usually)
hope that sums up this somewhat useless argument.

hope you all have a happy christmas (thanksgiving) Big Grin

moongose (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:01)

thanksgiving is completely different to Christmas, good one

anthonysjb (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:06)

it's fork. if you look on the rockshox website they describe it as a fork (http://www.sram.com/rockshox/category/113)

tombutlerr (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:10)

good one, http://www.sram.com/rockshox/products/boxxer-world-cup
Im pretty sure under catogory it says- 'Forks'

gnarkore (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:16)

Pretty sure their boxxer line is more than one fork. Nice try though.

thecheeseychizter (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:24)

BANTER!

anthonysjb (Dec 22, 2010 at 10:35)

yes it says forks as that is the plural of fork. but if you look at the description of the fork they describe it as a fork. personally i call them forks but fork is right.

thecheeseychizter (Dec 22, 2010 at 12:15)

same here anthony.

makonastinky (Dec 22, 2010 at 12:15)

so is this finally resovled?

moongose (Dec 22, 2010 at 13:20)

i think that we all know that this will never be resolved. there will always be some twat who digs it back up.

rippin-norco (Dec 22, 2010 at 18:16)

THINK ABOUT IT! the manufactors call them fox 40's, hense forkS the cannondale lefty FORK is a single FORK...it is both depending on what your talking about.

ericvan (Dec 22, 2010 at 21:12)

LOL who gives a f*ck, over half the argument is the 'fork' guys just all commenting with no one arguing back, and they get madder and madder hahahahah. im pretty sure colin994 is crying over the debate, this is just toooo funny

moongose (Dec 23, 2010 at 1:10)

rippin-norco, unfortunately i thought this was over, clearly i was wrong. I dont think that the lefty fork can actually be a fork since it only has one leg, and every fork i have ever seen has at least two: argyle's, pitch forks, forks you eat off. The fork with only one leg is commonly known as a knife

halfordskid123 (Dec 23, 2010 at 10:30)

cool story bro...

anthonysjb (Dec 23, 2010 at 10:48)

fail troll is a fail.

Colin994 (Dec 23, 2010 at 19:28)

yes ericvan i in fact did shed a tear over an online debate...no.

im just sick of this showing up in my dashboard and all the recapping thats going on

makonastinky (Dec 23, 2010 at 20:14)

colin994 u took pics of my uncle in a race at highland..

Colin994 (Dec 23, 2010 at 20:21)

haha yeah that was my dad. quite the fun race

makonastinky (Dec 23, 2010 at 20:31)

cool , yeh i wasnt up there to see that race, i think it was a different one anyway, wasnt the gravity east race right?

Colin994 (Dec 23, 2010 at 20:32)

yeah it was just a mountain race. he was looking fast though

halfordskid123 (Dec 24, 2010 at 1:04)

sick man, i've heard that's a pretty tough track, how did his forks hold out?

Colin994 (Dec 24, 2010 at 10:54)

yeah its short but tough. really fun though and its only open for races. id assume they were fine considering he made it down in one piece haha

makonastinky (Dec 24, 2010 at 11:06)

well there marz 888 so id expect them to hold up, but he did brake his frame some time after like a month ago, the shock saddle i think is what its called, the black triangle like piece that conects to the bottom of the rear shock, yeh in the gravity east race he crashed in the beggining and f*cked up his brake lever to his rear brake so he got last in that race becuase he took the safe way and walked down the steep parts..

ericvan (Dec 24, 2010 at 12:02)

quote/oh and f*ckYOU philipstonier /quote

thats real passion for someone arguing your point hahaha

Colin994 (Dec 24, 2010 at 20:59)

.....it was meant as a joke considering he brought back the argument but alright

makonastinky (Dec 24, 2010 at 21:08)

yeh i know, i was trying to change the subject in hopes to end this argument...

Colin994 (Dec 25, 2010 at 11:28)

yay im honored to be a part of the new subject

makonastinky (Dec 25, 2010 at 11:31)

ok lol , i think its finally over...

Colin994 (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:18)

see thats what i thought a good 5 times until people came and commented again (i.e. philipstonier)

just dont get your hopes up

makonastinky (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:41)

yeh i kno, but if we just keep commenting back and forth a few times about something else, then when people read the last comments that will not be anything about the argument then theyll b like, oh watever guess its over..

Colin994 (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:42)

well id say what we're doing now would have the same effect, but then i realized we're explaining our logic for everyone to see soooo it may not work but i guess we'll just see. high five for effort

makonastinky (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:44)

(ill start) my grandma was supose to buy me used dorados but i was not informed until i had paid for them and she said oh i was gonna buy those =( icouldve saved some money but now she agreed to buy me a new wheel.. so thats good

Colin994 (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:47)

my grandma got me a sheep pelt and its the best f*cking gift ive ever gotten. that along with some new spike rims green spokes and pro 2's arent bad either

makonastinky (Dec 25, 2010 at 12:53)

the wheel im getting has a mavic ex 325 rim , black spokes, on a formula hub, im only getting a front wheel though , becuase the dorados will need 20mm axle and im upgrading from qr forks and hub...

Colin994 (Dec 25, 2010 at 21:55)

thats legit what year model dorado?

makonastinky (Dec 26, 2010 at 7:47)

04 im getting them for only $160 that ncludes shipping, they dont got stanchion guards.. but you cant beat the price

Colin994 (Dec 26, 2010 at 11:14)

ehh idk for 160 that seems a little sketch. were they recently serviced?

makonastinky (Dec 28, 2010 at 11:05)

yeh i kno, and im probably gonna have to get it serviced and stuff but for the price it can be beat

fr-kye (Jan 14, 2011 at 16:56)

its "standing around holding a fox 40. not a set. not more then one. just a fox 40.

pierpoint33 (Jan 15, 2011 at 5:09)

f*ck sake fr-kye, this argument was over last year and you had to drag it back up no one is bothered now, we know it can either be 40 or 40's which ever you prefer, Facepalm

moongose (Jan 17, 2011 at 14:27)

Forks are overrated anyway rendering this argument completely useless. I mean imagine how much nicer biking and pinkbike would be if they didnt exist

makonastinky (Jan 17, 2011 at 16:28)

what else would we use to hold o nth front wheel?

downhiller900sl (Jan 17, 2011 at 19:18)

im with fr-kye Smile

moongose (Jan 17, 2011 at 23:23)

Makonastinky, the answer is simple: Duck/Duct tape not gonna say its either or the other cos we'l have another massive argument. Would solve all our fork/forks troubles

makonastinky (Jan 18, 2011 at 3:37)

well, ive got a simpler answer moongose, everyone that disagrees with saying it the other way, should, SHUT THE f*ck UP! not aimed twards you, unless you think it can only be said one way wich is f*cking retarded, ifyou think about it.. you cant only say car, in some cases you have to say cars.. almost any word is like that, unless its a word like deer , see there are many deer, and , there is a deer, there are many forks, and, there is a fork.... THE END, there is no argument , that is the correct way and that is all there is to it!

moongose (Jan 18, 2011 at 11:40)

I agree completely

deaddevel3 (Jan 22, 2011 at 3:50)

why cant they just be front wheel holders Smile

fork sounds incorrect even is it is the popper way to pronounce it

riggadon (Mar 29, 2011 at 11:54)

haha the whole fork argument was like 100 comments long, i stopped reading after about 20 comments... go ride your bike, and then it wont matter what theyre called, yay

makonastinky (Mar 29, 2011 at 18:03)

scroll up all the way i think even 100 is an understatment

makonastinky (Mar 29, 2011 at 18:09)

i counted for the hell of it i ended up with 278 including my last comment 279 if you count this one, but im most likly off by a few, i also counted the first comment everyone is replying off of, and then everything after that..

sorry bout that i had no idea what to say i had smoked a blunt to the head not too long before that last comment

pierpoint33 (Apr 2, 2011 at 4:22)

A blunt ?, dont you mean a big f*ck of JOINT.

musclemilk (Apr 2, 2011 at 5:06)

LOL ^ agreed

pierpoint33 (Apr 2, 2011 at 5:11)

Musclemilk knows the score, aha

musclemilk (Apr 2, 2011 at 5:25)

not gunna lie ... this pic has lead to some f*cked up arguments / convos !

makonastinky (Apr 2, 2011 at 10:21)

well i used a cigarello paper so thats what me and anyone i know calls a blunt, and shit a blunt is all u need for 6.05 u can get pretty stoned, 5 for a gram and 99 cents plus tax for a cigarello..

pierpoint33 (Apr 2, 2011 at 13:08)

I have no idea what you meant there, but we know them as 5er bags, 10er bags, 20bags, half ounce and that, i dont do that stuff myself but some friends do, its funny to watch people when they are stoned i reckon.

thecheeseychizter (Apr 2, 2011 at 14:59)

it's even funnier to be stoned watching people being stoned haha

pierpoint33 (Apr 2, 2011 at 15:10)

Never been stoned, or never even smoked, dont really fancy it but i its funny

makonastinky (Apr 2, 2011 at 16:10)

yeh 5 bag is a gram of weed a cigarello it a cigar, they sell them as one for 99 cents, so if u got $6.05 cents u buy a gram for $5 then a cigarello for 99 cents plus tax so $1.05, then u break the cigar gut it then roll it with the weed then you got a blunt,so for only six dollars and five cents you could get high as hell.. @thecheeseychizter, i had to laugh at that one.. everything is even funnier when ur baked... but the experience of being high s just great, its like being in a dream where you are playing a video game of ur life, pierpoint, if ur friends do it, im just sayin maybe ushould try it once, its not addicting so unless everythign goes good and u liked it , (like my first time) you wont be really wanting to do it again..

stinker (Apr 2, 2011 at 18:19)

up here in bc its 10 per gram but bc bud is the best lol

pierpoint33 (Apr 3, 2011 at 3:20)

Im not sure, i was going to try the canabis a few month ago when my mates where but i stopped, i have asthma so i dont know what would happen.

makonastinky (Apr 3, 2011 at 9:17)

@stinker , not all the weed is 5 a gram only the mids r, if u want some dro, i could get some dank ass shit that would knock king kong on his ass for $20 gram,
@pierpoint ull b fine, since its ur first time ull only have to take like 2 hits anyway... maybe 3...

Colin994 (Apr 3, 2011 at 11:01)

hahahahahahahaha 5 dollar gram of shwaggy ass oregano. f that dude only danks. no matter what a gram here is 20 unless its mids and then you can get a g for 15. we may pay a shit load for bud here but you really cant turn down shit thats vacuum sealed straight from a dispensary in cali. name a dank or headies, and ive probably tried it. and dude dont worry about asthma my friend whos also a huge stoner has asthma and has had little issues. just dont be super active after and keep your inhaler with you and you should be good. up to you but you really havent lived until you try some type of psychedelic

xpirimint (Apr 3, 2011 at 19:01)

omg when did this convo turn into weed? WTF? Shut this shit up. And you guys are all wrong anyways. Granddaddy purple is the best and here in cali you can legally get that for about 10-15 a g so suck it!

riggadon (Apr 3, 2011 at 21:13)

indeed, fr3erid3r knows whats up

downhiller900sl (Apr 3, 2011 at 21:53)

why dont you open a thread on the forum?? "pinkbike crakheads and junkies" suits it well, and stop comenting this photo and we all win. Please and Thanks.

stinker (Apr 3, 2011 at 22:01)

makonastinky i live in bc u will not be able to find better than mine lol and btw all u cali boys most of ur good shit originated in bc haha give it anothe ryear this convo will be about gas prices or somthing random like that like seriously debating about weather the fork is called 40s or 40 eventually leading into a debate about whos bud is better like wtf how did this happen

kieran95 (Apr 4, 2011 at 10:25)

It's fork

pierpoint33 (Apr 4, 2011 at 13:06)

Kieran95, no one cares so "fork" off you prick.

kieran95 (Apr 5, 2011 at 2:02)

I see what you did there

makonastinky (Apr 5, 2011 at 17:08)

i just get mids for $5 a gram, and really even though its cheap it aint bad at all, itll get u high so its watever for me,

@downhiller900sl , idk what ur on but i deffinatly dont and wont do any crack, i stick with clean green, none of that k2 spice shit niether, but herion is ok some times ... (BTW , i was kidding bout that last part)

Colin994 (Apr 5, 2011 at 19:19)

yeah but it tastes like shit and gives you a migrane. stick to the headies or danks and f*ck all that other schwag. if youre going to smoke make sure its the best even if you gotta pay extra. so worth it. just got done with a salad slice of mr nice guy gdp and bubba kush. leeeeeegit vape bong hits err night

pawl (Apr 5, 2011 at 20:00)

i wish that i hadn't commented on this picture

makonastinky (Apr 5, 2011 at 20:21)

yeh i get the dank bud sometime, usually when i got lots to spend , but since i dont have any sort of steady income, i just get mids , bcuz its more for ur money , cuz if its weed, ur gonna get high , then ur gonna come off it sooner or later, and i always like to have more waiting , like if i bought $20 a gram thats one blunt and thats it, or like 2 bowls, but if i get 4 grams thats a blunt, 1 bowl when i buz out a lil , another bowl for when i buz out a lil again(thats roughly 7 hours of bing high), then i can do the same tomorrow.. but like im saying , the weed here is probably cheaper,

Colin994 (Apr 9, 2011 at 7:44)

yes. but for us mids is still 15 a g so it would be dumb not to just spend the extra 5 and get some danks. and considering dank is the only shit that comes through my town its not like i have a choice. being from a town full of rich snobby kids who splurge all their parents money on weed, the best strains just make full circle here i havent seen any mids since summer. if you can afford it then its the good life for sure

xpirimint (Apr 9, 2011 at 9:40)

I hate weed unless it's good quality. I hate cotton mouth and i hate dry eyes. Sometimes you even get muffled ears, a headache...

definitely better NOT TO BE A JEW and spend a little more per G

JesseBMXs (Jun 21, 2011 at 21:14)

@methdog hahahah, and its forks, fork is a tool for eating, forkS are either multiple forks used for eatingm, or a bike part which holds the front rim, you will NEVER her someone say "i need new fork" or "i bent my fork" or "my fork snapped" or "i love my fork" to an extent it sounds okay, but its not the proper way to say it

BLIPDH (Jul 1, 2011 at 11:44)

HOLY f*ck YOU GUYS ITS FORK...SINGULAR this is straight from fox's website---"The new FIT RC2 damper lowers un-sprung weight, allowing the fork to react quicker for better steering control." you see that??? ITS f*ckING FORK GIVE IT UP YOU GUYS.

JesseBMXs (Jul 1, 2011 at 16:09)

@demo-250 the reason you dont hear someone say "i got a new forks" is because you would say "i got new forks"
neither one of them sounds right it just sounds retarded, both "i got a new forks" and "i got a new fork" dont sound right. take grammar again!!

JesseBMXs (Jul 1, 2011 at 16:16)

heres my take. in proper WRITTEN english, its fork. in regular SPEAKING english both fork/forks are commonly accepted as the same thing.

yes. im that guy who brings this whole thing back to life.

Bloody hell. I just spent about 15 mins reading all these petty arguments about 'fork' or 'forks', 'pant' or 'pants' and 'sunglass' or 'sunglasses'. When it looked like it was finally about to end some arse went and posted another comment or copied and pasted something off wiki. At the end of the day it doesnt matter whether you choose to say 'Got a new fox 40' or 'Got my new fox 40's'. It still conveys the exact same message with absoulutely no confusion or misunderstanding. Its just how people say it, in the same way i say trousers but you americans say pants (this is relevant btw as someone was using pant vs. pants in their argument). Only the complete freaks among us feel the need to analyse the language and grammar on what is in the first place a casual and informal website. Now please, STOP this pathetic argument its doing my head in and i think its safe to say i speak on behalf of everyone who has had to endure reading all the comments. Stop. End off. Non grammar comments below please

this string of comments is hilarious, im dyslexic so im a gonner in grammer terms so dont get all up in my flow bout grammer.... but

ive always called em forks, and a fork when i feel like it come to think of it. all u flipping noobs need to chill the flip out with whether they're forks or a fork who gives a monkeys nip what gary to left calls it. sorry if im a bit late in my entry but i wanted to get involved in all this bikering as ive got nothing else to do right now.

now, if u think one way is correct over another ur a god damn noob

[Reply]

cepon3 (Aug 20, 2011 at 5:16)

Im pretty sutr in this case only, it would be considered Fox 40's. Not that I dont get the whole plural snd singular argument. but when you refer to fox's 40 fork, you are referring to the size of the stanchions. Which there are two of which would make it either Fox's 40 fork or a nice set of 40's refering to the two stanchions. There is no such thing as "forks" the fork is one component which makes it singular. Onve again I think this only works with 40's and wont work the same with the boxxer...

[Reply]

slyfoxrcr09 (Mar 19, 2012 at 17:53)

now coming from a motorcycle shop, if the unit as a whole is a fork, how can you tell the shop guys that the left fork seal needs replaced. same components as the bicycle set up. two stanchions... never mind. after looking at the picture again, the fork she is holding is a solid piece. motorcycle forks aren't connected to each other. you can replace the left fork, or the right fork. with these you would have to replace the entire unit, the 'fork' as a whole. the point i was going to make is invalid, and typing this out has clarified my understanding as to why it is referred to as a 'fork' instead of 'forks'. funny read though. can't believe it went on this long...

holy shit people its fox 40s becuase tere is to stanchoin and 2 lower boots for the stnachion, and each of them are 40 milimeterS its its a god damn f*cking pair of fox 40s!! so shut the f*ck up//

rockhopper15 (Sep 3, 2010 at 16:55)

you do not have the proper reasoning. it is a given fact that each fork has 2 stanctions, as well 2 lowers to house said stanctions. however, this does not make the fork a 'pair'. it is not a pair. and never will be. i dont car what you think, but you are so incredibly wrong it makes me sick. its a fork. it is one singular fork. that happens to have 2 seperate stanctions. the survey says. makonastynky is weetaaawwded

makonastinky (Sep 5, 2010 at 20:04)

uhm no its 40's but its fork one fork 2 40's dumb ass...
