Default He is at it again

Obviously toobroketoretire is trying to stir up another round of arguments with his latest thread. Let's all try to ignore him.

True.
But think about all the wasted hours sitting in front of his battery powered computer waiting for someone to say something.

the bad part is if no one calls his bs and one doing a google search may run across them think they are true or it may look bad on this forum if said person knows better.

So far the forum is doing a great job of ignoring him. I won't even click to open it, knowing it's bound to be filled with more foolishness.

Well done forum members!

The problem is when someone does call him out he just stops posting on that thread and starts a new one. If no one replies, there is nothing to google. The worst part is someone may actually do what he said and that would hurt the forum. No replies from us, no replies from him.

No, I'm just trying to educate people. It was ignorant people who started these myths and ignorant people who perpetuate these myths.

maybe a name change to "too_broke_to_retire" is in order, unfortunately you will have to be an old timer to understand....

Not at all. He's 'dispelling' several items that are generally stated by "know it all" folks that overheard drunk tid-bits from their father's friend when they were 11 and it has been 100% factual truth ever since. Now they're 56 and haven't learned much in the meantime.

Just lifter adjustment stuff, dizzy shim stuff, and how best to seat a posi clutch. Nothing too advanced.

Folks with a brain have already figured all these things out.

Good call. I think I am a little dumber after reading it. It's pretty bad.

I think you nailed it!! Everyone has met this guy before! I used to know this dude that was always an expert at everything and one time he was claiming he used to play guitar and named songs he could play etc.Problem was he was at my house this time and when I told him to come on in and play as he was not aware I had a guitar it just made me laugh so hard I nearly died!! He did't even know a chord!! Ha ha
