Is there a way to find IP addresses for these individuals to complain. I mean with that information, the location they are posting from could really be narrowed down, right?

wow, you went all out with Mr. brake. Anyone who have done any DIY knows how the one or two piston work. I think its weak but, it what it is.

Great slap on the face with the drum/rotor comparison.


Let me order four drum conversion brakes kits and disconnect the ABS on both Vettes. I just have to push the pedal and lock the brakes for maximum performance.

Hmm.

Bryan, I see you are now starting to hate idiots as much as I do.

Good search buddy!

Time to send in the dogs...

Hatred of idiots is not a new thing. A former CO of mine said it well when he said I "have a very low tolerance for stupidity".

There was no search involved for that one. I thought it was a moronic question and just happened to see that brake man was the one that asked it.


I'm done in the brake thread no matter what is argued. As much as I hate idiots, I really don't like wasting time on them. You can't fix stupid.

Senior Military Leadership will always say that line. Once you serve about 12 years and the cycle of BS stories reach its limit we start to guess what happened, what will happen and predict the future.

Becoming an asshole to prevent future stupid thing from happen works. It keeps the phone from ringing, waisting hours at the COs or Command Deck office.

Bryan, imagine your CO with 20+ of experience knowing all the BS that will happen once they pulled to the port of any country.

Once we left a Marine in Australia....

I think the cycle of BS took about a year before it started repeating itself. I got pissed and went off on one of the guys that worked for me when he made a really stupid mistake that could have had large consequences (luckily didn't). The result of that was the conversation with the CO when he mentioned my low tolerance for stupidity.

6 years was plenty of time to see all of the BS that happened when we pulled into port.

Once we left a kid in Rota, Spain....

This one involved lots and lots of alcohol, a concussion, and short term memory loss.
