Good thing you explained it's mud on his shoulders.
I mean uh... hasn't that ever occurred to you, man? Sir?
For those of you who don't frequent the hottitude threads...
It was just a long race--Edvald Boasson Hagen, on the Giro
Why do you hate mud Jimbo?

That "mud" looks suspiciously like vegemite!

As a Vegemite expert, I'm thinking tanning gel ;)
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Yep, definitely not Vegemite
Wrong colour and consistency
I bet it doesn't taste as good either ...

Vegemite? Bleeuugghh!

Just conforming to the stereotype ;)
Personally I hate tea…

I can eat it with a spoon
and have done so on more than one occasion ;-)
We’re not kidding about our love for the stuff. The rest of the world is just weird, in that regard…
It actually tasted pretty good.
But it wasn’t tanning gel or Vegemite.

Wow, is that a big packet or is Benna, like, Barbie sized??

Nobody is going to believe me
but I almost wrote that the “mud” looked more like chocolate jello pudding. Which makes me both proud and ashamed at the same time…
Who licked the batter?
Oh wait. Nevermind. Must stop drinking pineapple wine. This place is not safe while doing so. ha ha. Totally love these episodes Majope and so does someone else! LOL!
I'm ready for this road season to wrap up. Bring on Cross!
Haha Ohh I love it!!!
Can’t wait til albertina sees this….

Does it come with an "Overrated!" shirt?
maybe a sign at the very least?
Look, it's a bird...no, it's a plane....oh never mind it's just fucking balloon boy
Don't make me cry....

Now Albertina
you know I love hate to do that…

You wouldn't want my eyeliner to run now would you?

Well,
none that can read a petition written in Italian. Although maybe someone here will be able to help translate Haussler’s from Australian.

Is there any reason
why he’s wearing the bottom half of one of Barbie’s bikinis?
As close as I could get to
this. Barbie actually has relatively little in the way of thongs.

shit
I had a feeling i should not open that link. why I dont follow my instincts?
Your bike doesn't want to crash so relax and let it roll!!!
I fail to see anything wrong with the link

holy cow -
that makes the above sooooo much funnier (and it was already off the charts!)
George bunny-hopped my bike somehow. He's like a cat. -- cvv
Yeah the Liquigas kit! Well.... OK, you don't have to. ;-)
At least he comes with all the bath accessories. Sooooo funny!
Wow
I sure could use a tiny copy of L’Uomo. You know, to read on a crowded bus.

Ha! Truly LOLing here.
(imaging the Lance Barbie with multiple bleach blonde-haired girlfriend Barbies)
that all look like his mom...
(did I say that? i would reiterate at this point that I am a lance fan.)
BTW, any gossip girl fans here? I snorted when blair called LA a man-whore last night! (unexpected reference.)

Hmm...I may actually have an Olsen twin doll in the junk box...

I bet you can find
a curly haired pipo/save ferris doll

Hilarious!
A bit disappointed in this not tipping the scale to a Bennalanche though! Awesome stuff majope!!! :-)

Did somebody say Bennalanche?

Sweetie!
You were so there to help get one started and sadly the ocean beach was calling. Sorry! Thanks for the help though. Very disappointed in our girls. This was so the place to launch a full blown bennalanche. It’s been a long while since we’ve had one.

I'm thinking Pippo....she could have fun painting the tattoos!

This is reaching new heights of inspired wierdness...
… when are we going to have a Cuddles Barbie, with featured chip on shoulder and optional Windmill to tilt at?
Ha!
Great suggestions from everyone. Since I don’t actually sculpt vinyl, I’m limited by doll availability to which riders we can imagine they look like.
Although…appropriately dressed/accessorized and shot from behind…hmmm.

Do you have a Barbie dog?

Um. Several.
I don’t mean to have all this junk, really. I just have to buy big lots of things to get the things I do want…and then I can’t get rid of them because you never know when you might need, say, a barbecue grill or a whole table full of grooming products. Or a little plastic dog.

Wonderful.
Have you come across Plastic Peloton People in ProCycling? Its creator has a similar box of tricks! http://secretsofthepeloton.com/plastic_peloton_people_main.htm

Great stuff.
More grown ups should play with toys. And ride bikes, of course.

You are the Mistress of Crayons, gavia!
Will we have some more during the off-season? It’s sooooo long, and cold, and dark, these days before Het Nieuwsbecco brings back the Spring. Please?

This really could be taken wrong if one was drinking.
I of course would never drink and visit so I’m not sure who has the dirty mind about the toy comment. LOL.

ooooh - and a little dog
barbie has many a little dog to chose from, doesn’t she?

I wonder if majope
has a cheap electric toothbrush or similar in her hoard of ‘potentially useful crap’. The motor from such a gizmo would do the trick…
I'm worried about the 'do' :(
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
How about one of those vibrating things they give you in pubs to let you know your food's ready?

Wow
I’ve never been given anything like THAT in a pub… (and possibly that’s a Good Thing…)
I'm thinking
that no matter what happens albertina should never explain this further… it has crashdan’s photo written all over it…
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
It's true and perfectly innocent!
It’s a little sort of square thing which flashes and vibrates to summon you to collect your food. You people have SUCH dirty minds! ;-)

What did you say to Jens the other day? 'Stop Now!' ;)
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
I'm trying madly to find a picture of one but I have no idea what to put into Google!

You understand that even though i know exactly what you're talking about
I can’t help… but in case of later misunderstandings it’s a picture worth finding. Can you look under restaurant suppliers or something?
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Hardly a challenge for you majope...
So what did you call it for the purposes of a search?
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
The hint is in the URL
‘restaurant pager’ ;-).
So… the vibrating mechanism is controlled remotely? Interesting…
Confession: because I knew what it was I didn't use the link :O
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Restaurant buzzer.
Searched “Images,” and that’s the first that came up.
It was just a long race--Edvald Boasson Hagen, on the Giro
It's also the first image that comes up for "restaurant pager"
but I haven’t had enough coffee to think that coherently. The sky is barely beginning to lighten.

Ooo, that one flashes all the way around the edge!
Obviously a more advanced model than the one I had.

You're worried *now*, Jens?
Wait ‘til majope see the brilliant ideas that we’re coming up with here…
Oh my...

Oh, you people.
I already count each day I wake up and there are no M-a-t-t-e-l lawyers on my doorstep as a good day. You want them to skip directly to hit men?
It was just a long race--Edvald Boasson Hagen, on the Giro
I just need to say
that this front page ‘thing’ is becoming increasingly annoying. I can get this page through Archives, but the little fanpost from Jens about Stuart O’Grady is almost a lost cause. At this point, unless you’re above the fold on the front page, you might as well accept that many people will miss what you’ve posted. Is there any hope of resolution or is this now the way things will be?
And while I’m in snark mode, please don’t make this about regions. From what I’ve read it seems that random people from many places are facing the same predicament.
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Have you reported the problem to SB nation
I’m thinking if it’s a tech issue it would have to be addressed that way.
No I haven't, but thanks for the suggestion
Because there has been extensive discussion on two threads about it, I obviously (erroneously) assumed that those further ‘up the line’ would have done so. This by the way isn’t me being bitchy, just explaining that i have obviously misunderstood certain things. For me, the fact that people like Lou and Bruce also reported similar problems suggested it was serious. I realise my own technological ineptitude is well documented.
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Yes, it's obvy a tech issue
You can send it to SB N. You can also send an email to Chris or I explaining the problem and Chris will bump it up the chain. We need to know exactly what the problem is and what browser you are using. It is very likely browser specific – which means “they” may need to alter some code to make it work for your browser. Honestly, I still don’t quite understand what the problem is, myself.
Stuff like this will get buried it it’s only in the comment threads.
The front page doesn't load
that’s the problem (I have) and it really is annoying. Doesn’t matter if I’m using IE (8) or chrome, takes multiple refreshes or as Seahorse did, get in through archives.
I think this is the place to report your issues
It’s probably better if those who have problems contact them than Chris. You are in a better position to say what’s wrong.
And remember, in the spirit of CTV: The problem is always on your end.
Woow.. There is a selection..
I want to blog for SBNation.. Hmmmm (:
What do you fear most?
1. coup d’etat
2. putsch
And I use Firefox or Safari...
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Likewise, and I have the same problem
I sent them a message.
