… has @F3Metro fallen?
After Cindy’s Friday BB shenanigans, and Dredd’s out of character response, if in fact he was serious about Cindy’s “offensive” writing; more on that in a minute -- I did what I’ve always done over the years, something I’m actually pretty damn good at -- in order to restore balance to the #F3Universe -- YHC would call the shot, corral the crew, and we’d do something extremely stupid and hard together.
*And I just spit tobacco juice in my coffee by accident. Dip cup was next to my coffee cup. These things happen. Oh well. I’m drinking it and moving on…
Cindy wrote a BB not unlike the hundred or so other BB’s he’s written over the years where he basically calls out your pussy parts and the weak workouts spreading like wildfire through @F3Metro.
For doing that, he was Twitter accused of “not leaning in, failing to reach out, and punching down.”
Those reading that tweet were then told NOT to read the attached BB, not to forward it, and not to engage with the dude that wrote it. I assumed that was a psychological joke aimed to provoke me, so YHC read it immediately.
I’ll concede Cindy’s guilty of the aforementioned fails. I was going to say it was intentional, but I’m not confident it was, I doubt he considered any of it along those lines, wrote what was in his heart (with that special Ceesus sauce) as most of what he had to say was born out of frustration and disappointment. He chose a more challenging route, he does that, too harsh for some, I’m told it’s questionably offensive, and maybe not as effective as it could have been.
Tag me in! Tag me in! Tag me in! YHC leaps over the top turnbuckle --
I probably don’t like Cindy any more than you do. Assuming you do like him, that’s how much I like him. We’re not besties by any stretch. But I’ve worked out, on and off, with most of you clowns for the better part of ten years. If I have to filter everything that comes out my mouth with a bunch of other dudes that I don’t really know or spend time with outside of the gloom then what kind of fucking fun is that. Let your freak fly!
And just meet people where they are, for who they are. If a bunch of dudes I recreated in my own image showed up for a workout there would be absolute chaos. Feel me.
F3 should be fun. It should also be hard. Not every day pull your dick out of the dirt hard, but more days than not let’s try and fuck some shit up hard.
You may think what you’re doing is hard. You think that because you’re out of shape and have been out of shape longer than you care to admit it. You lie to yourself, keep telling yourself, I’m showing up and working out and it’s enough. No, it’s not. Not really. If you’re inclined to pull back every time you get uncomfortable you’ll never break through. And chances are you’re working out next to someone that’s in worse shape than you. So, lazy britches over there not doing anything helps you feel better about what you’re not doing, which is getting fit.
