Things I learned to be a true Monster lover

[PragB]

1. I can't have any fashion sense unless the clothes says Ducati.
2. I have to act like a douchebag but call others douchebags.
3. I can personalize my bike, but it has to look like everyone else's or I'll be ostrisized.
4. If more than 1 person hates something, I have to also hate it, even if I like it.
5. If I have a difference of opinion with a longtime member him and all his dick riders will bash me.
6. I have no freedom of choice, opinion or speech unless I agree with the masses.
7. I have to hate everything popular and bash anyone who likes those things.
8. I will be hated by most other riders for being an arrogant jerk, but I am justified in being so because I ride a Ducati.
9. Anyone who dislikes how I act is only hating me because they're jealous.
10. I must act like the motorcycling equivalent of a "Scene Girl".
11. I have ultimate say in everything Ducati does and even though I could barely afford my 620, I can bash on the expensive Ducati motorcycles I will never afford and act like Ducati is losing money from me.
12. I must act like I am a God.
13. No other brands on the planet have "soul"
14. If Ducati puts their name on something other than motorcycles or motorcycle gear I must bash Ducati for selling out.
15. If a post has more than 1 page of someone hating on someone I have to do my best to make it get to at least 15 pages of hate with my witty barbs bashing the OP.
16. My list of awful things to do to others is pretty much endless, but I am justified in my awful behaviour, because I do no wrong because I am a Ducatista.
17. If someone says something I don't like on the Monster forum I bash them until the mods ban them and if I am a mod I bash them even more than regular members...

This is what I have learned what it takes to be a true Monster lover in the 5 years of being a watcher of the Ducati Monster forums...

Oh, he's definitely not. Just take a look at some of his other posts.

Forgot #18

I must generalize, and even though there are only a few members who fit the list i'm making, i'm going to blow it way out of proportion. Because i can be just as big a douche as anyone else on the board.


Speaking of which, where's "the ron"?  when he wasn't bashing my bike he was actually making some pretty interesting posts.

[sbrguy]

i see nothing wrong with the list at all...

that is totally cool with me, thank you.

wow,  did someone take this guys lithium away or something.  I mean, weather people on this forum resemble those remarks or not it takes a special person to just go ahead and post that out of the blue as a new topic. 

Did your dad get ran over by a ducati monster or something?

1. I can't have any fashion sense unless the clothes says Ducati.

I personally don't have any fashion sense even if the clothes DO say Ducati.

6. I have no freedom of choice, opinion or speech unless I agree with the masses.

+1.  Heh.

You forgot:
1.) Giving someone a hand-built bike made from parts gathered from a community of strangers shortly after he wrecked his bike.
2.) Donating funds to someone who recently lost their bike and home in a fire.
3.) Having a complete community and internet forum with a vast wealth of technical knowledge maintained entirely by volunteers.
4). Wearing proper riding gear.
5.) Having the balls to take a hacksaw to your bikes frame.
6.) Having the personal security to join into a group of people that you know all of the "real riders" out there like to bash for investing in a machine that the truly love.
6.) NOT putting NOS Energy Drink in our fuel tanks.

Please feel free to spend another 5 years observing from the outside so you can make hypocritical judgements when your done.

And your triumph blows.

That was an epic thread.  If I ever use a beverage as a carb cleaner, though, I'll use Monster Lo-Carb.

[Duck-Stew]

I find it ironic that he's on a Triumph bashing the DMF.   

[herm]

who pissed in your beer dude?

i guess a community like this (which has also been known to band together to help seriously injured riders, or to assist the families of deceased riders) is not your style. or a community which is watched by the manufacturers/dealers/aftermarket crowd, for cues on what people want and need...

or one which gathers members together from all over the country in places like.........well, all over the country. just not your style...
