Dumb question thread.....

Alright, I don't know how anyone else feels but lately it seems to me that there are a lot of dumb questions being asked. I'm not trying to hate on anyone, but whatever happend to just trying a trick out? Do people think that if they ask the question they'll get a golden answer and the trick will just come to them naturally? What questions irritate you guys on here? The most recent one I can think of was....

"How do you use two fingers on the clutch and handbrake?"

Seriously, go the f*ck out to a lot and try it. WTF is up with that?

Re: Dumb question thread.....

it's all the lazy *** internet stunnas. One kid asked a question and flat out admitted to not even tryin to find any info for it. if it's something like pulling through to 50-50, I'm curious how people are doing it. but "which RPM/speed can I wheelie at?" or, like you said, the handbrake thing. tire pressure, and a lot of things are all trial and error.

Alright, you're gonna take it up to about 8grand and dump the clutch. Guarantee you'll do a wheelie.

At a show last night, some guy asked me to check his oil for him. I was like.....um, what?

Re: Dumb question thread.....

I ***** it up, but I'm broke for another few days and had to rebuild a little of the bike from a wreck. I never asked a ton of "stupid squid" questions.
I know that they're new and "we should help new stunters out to make the sport grow" but DAMN.....read the stickied threads here before you ask those dumbass questions. or a local stunter.

Me: "Yeah, I've got some, but what are you running in there?"
Crackhead: "I dunno. Something I got from Autozone."
Me: "You're running car oil in there?"
Crackhead: "Yeah, why?"
Me: "That's probably why your clutch is running like ****. How much oil do you have in there?"
Crackhead: "I dunno, didn't check it."
Me: "Thought you said you were low?"
Crackhead: "Thats what my boy told me. Can you check it for me?"
Me: "Um, why don't you check it for yourself?"
Crackhead: "I don't know how to do it, can you do it?"

Went back and forth with him for a little while then he tries to get me to change his oil during the show with my oil. I was like fawk off **** head. What the hell is with people? I don't have enough time to change my own oil let alone yours. Get to steppin focko.

all you need is a wrench and a drill. Tell them that the mess is theirs.

No warranty, no guarantees!!!
