    You know, this necro'ing of an epic thread reminds me to ask @Cynthetiq why we don't have an archive of Epic Threads. Anything double-WTF?!, super funny, controversial past ten pages, features a wide range of TFPers, etc.

    @Borla, make it happen.

  3. Hi.

    Satan through me off my bike (some info is readable at my site link under "Century II:#27").

    Praying for the Day of the Lord Cruise to the Mount of Olives and the Holy Land. (more details there, too)

    Life is great, and it only gets better.

    Going by what many drivers think, all cyclists are Satan.

    Was this the bike you were riding?

  7. Century VII, #24 (also more info there) shows that Satan is putting up a fight against the General Resurrection of the Dead.

    Not exactly. When I went to pick it up it seemed to weigh much heavier than usual, though.

    Is that a logo of some sort, or is it a commemorative design in recognition of the fact?

    It is if you believe.

    And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this road I will ride my bike; and the traffic of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will shew unto thee the bike path to the kingdom of heaven: and wheresoever thou shalt ride on earth shall be bound towards heaven: and whosoever thou shalt ride with on earth shall be ridden with in heaven. Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that they rode with Jesus the Christ.

    From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must ride unto Jerusalem, and suffer much traffic of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the cycling that be of God, but the cycling that be of men.

    —Matthew 16:18–23 (if only!)​

    Brings to mind:

    Then I'm down in the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun,
    Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike,
    And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell.
    And the last thing I see is my heart, still beating,
    Breaking out of my body and flying away
    Like a bat out of hell.

    The_Jazz had to be sacrificed to prevent the entire obliteration of the board.

    We will need more sacrificial victims.

    The official term is bot, but, yeah, basically.​



    Sorry. You've already been tagged for another function.

    I find it surprising that none of you seem to have figured out that I replaced the entire staff with very elaborate shell scripts over a year ago.
