Default Locked but not forgotten

In case some of you have not noticed, the infamous "Titanium Rotors" post has been locked and will forever be revered as Corvette Forum's finest rookie post in history. As many of you have deduced by now, I am an exceptionally humble man with a delightful demeanor. Despite this, I cannot resist the critical acclaim that ensued my glorious post. The interest that ensued for creating my own fan club, has warmed my heart. Hordes and hordes of my new fans groped and clamored for the creation of my fan club and they will not be denied. Included with fan club membership are tales of unconcionable male conquest, starring some of the world's most delectable females. Live through my glory, beloved fans!
Some might find it unfortunate that a degree of this fame has gone to my head. Yes, I admit that this newfound stardom is overwhelming. However, I will not forget all of you members who have made me one of the most recognizable American icons since Muhammad Ali. Yup, I'm that big!! I also admit to embracing a hope that this post will be preserved in a platinum engraving, word by word in it's entirety.
Finally, I would like to thank all of my beloved fans for their support.

You probably ought to leave locked posts alone. You can get in trouble bringing them up again. Just a thought.

Denial is not the road to happiness, forum readers! I would not be surprised if many of you are having dreams about titanium rotors at this point.
To answer your question, turtlevette; after my newfound corvette forum fame, they are pounding down my front door (no need to leave the homestead) .
Have a good weekend, forum members and don't take everything so seriously!

That was weird.
I have no idea who this person is, except that Gdaina posted a pic of his car. Nice looking car, but whats with the rookie of the year stuff?

Geez! Some of you don't have a sense of humor. Now go back and read it with a lighter frame of mind.
If you cannot figure it out, I'll make it simple for you. I joined this forum this past week and I was quickly bashed by old members here for bringing up a post about titanium rotors and proclaiming my beliefs regarding potential performance of C3 vettes. In ironic and sarcastic fashion I proclaimed myself to be god's gift to this forum. That is the joke. While being bashed I am self proclaiming myself as rookie of the year with members groping to join my fan club, etc.

I hate when I have to disclose the punchline but you guys were not catching on.

I musta missed another good one.

I won't read any post with titanium in the title. I figure either I can't afford it or don't need it.

Sorry I missed it your "high"-ness.
