Who the fk wonders about the meaning of life, I mean I've done some seriously good drugs in my time and I have never pondered it.

I'm surprised he would say such a thing (assuming it's not out of context).

But why does it bother you what his opinion is?

No? No one?

Please, 70+ pages of this st is enough. He's not the messiah, just a bloke who's sussed out how to get free motorbikes. Perspective people, PERSPECTIVE!
I genuinely don't understand why people read threads on topics they don't care about.

Perhaps you never realised just how boring my job is. I nearly got to the end of the internet on Monday.

Does anyone know how I can blag a Nemesis TC unit and QS?

If only I had a catchy forum name that matched the Nemesis's brand name.

I haven't read it but the latest descent into the morality of Barons apparent split from wife/life/child is taking the biscuit. Plenty here and elsewhere have such and possibly worse problems, yet why does Baron's modicum of (in)famy result in such public outbursts of support or condemnation?
Don't you realise how much server space you're taking up when it could be put to better use for discussing what tyre/gloves/boots/helmet/bike/lights/optician/sandwich filling etc. These are the things that matter........

Its called reflection... humans do it all the time. Especially when we consider all the madness around them.

We do it on here all the time when we discuss the new R1. I for one believe in the new incarnation of the Yamaha R1. Others still don't get it. They need to reflect more..

As eloquent as the baron said ''Do we go out meet somebody have children and be the fodder of life'

the fact he's still paying for the upkeep is one thing , the fact he feels having a child would reduce his life to fodder is quite something else.
1. It was some ramblings (the thing that made the channel what it was), he both admitted as much as the start, and also in the description
2. Other meanings of words are possible
3. You don't know any of the important details for which you have made your judgements
what other meaning for fodder is there other than animal feed, which doesn't even make sense in the context of the sentence Do we go out meet somebody have children and be the fodder of life

Obviously you are quite the devoted fan boy, I on the other hand enjoyed some of his videos respect the work he must put into producing them but I have no respect for someone who has a baby then decides he'd rather be living his life riding bikes than end up being the fodder of life working and bringing up a child.

We can go round and round in circles but i feel neither of our opinions will waver so it's a pointless exercise.

I'm really struggling to give a st what his opinions children are.

Someone mention inappropriate use of fog lights again. That normally gets me going.

Obviously because nobody else has a popular youtube channel like the baron.

His videos used to be him babbling about bikes and saying flog him, then he made the mistake of introducing his real life to the videos, now if he had kept that out we'd now still be talking about the bike bits.

You can't start doing videos introduce your personal life to it and not expect people to comment on it.

You care too much and are coming across as more of a rabid fan boy than anyone else.

Who the hell cares ffs? If you enjoy his videos, watch them, and if you don't then stop watching them. Super simple stuff.

You are right, it is pointless, especially if you are unwilling to look in a dictionary or even understand the context of words and their expression. I keep making the same points, you ignore them go about repeating the same assumptions and unsympathetic judgements you derive from them. Is that a demonstration 'respect'? Seems more like ignorance.
To be fair, id heard the word fodder as in cannon fodder, but the context he used it in didn't make sense. Mind you, I got a D in higher English.

In my defence I only had a 25 % attendance rate that year and I received 0 for my essay on the book great expectations. I was meant to read the whole book then write and essay on it in an exam. Rather than read it, as it was fking awful I watched the film the night before.

Feeling rather confident I battered through the essay, referencing the poetic ending constantly throughout, how beautiful it was that at the end the main characters both fell in love and sailed away into the sunset. I walked out thinking piece of cake.

Imagine my surprise when my English teacher handed it back to me saying that if I bothered to read the book I would have found it was the opposite and they never met again and fell out with each other.

And you make my point perfectly.

Initially, he rambled on about bikes. Fair enough, but even then he really didn't have that much of interest to say. OK, green laning the GSX-R was amusing, but by and large, his stuff is a rehash of the same bleh each and every time. Yet in todays world, a video once a month won't suffice, people demand more, and more, it needs to be fresh, now, but each offering is less than the last. Does the concept of "Less is More' hold sway here?. Yet in each successive offering, he still has nothing interesting to say, just more of the same, purile Jizz machine comments, Double Bloody Decker or some such 'Catchphrase'. So he descends into his own personal life and morbidity yet still has nothing interesting to say and especially nothing to say about bikes. See where this is heading.
But still churns out the vids, feeding the monster that he's created because hey, he might get a free bike. Cynical, or was he never that good in the beginning and the truth is out now?
Emperors new clothes anyone???

Are you deliberately writing the story of your life on this forum in anecdotal instalments?
Do you think I should get a camera and make a bike blog instead?

Totally and you should make some stickers and sell them to your legions of fans.
