Real truthful answers please!
What in the hell are you talking about?
My mom gets mad at me every time I get on unicyclist comm.com. But I love this site! What should I tell my mom?
Tell her to suck a fat… lollypop.
Then slap her and say “Mom I hope you get hit by a diesel truck, this is my new family”.
Please, for real I’m not joking!
Just Conversation is chatty and that’s why it’s here. RSU is supposed to be more business like and focus on the serious business of unicycling. So chat here and be business like over in RSU.
RSU is the best place to keep up with what’s going on in unicycling unless you happen to live in Minnesota and go to the Twin Cities Unicycle Club. How else are you going to find out what’s new? How else are you going to find out about events?
Without RSU or a strong local club a unicyclist would just be left hanging, not knowing what’s going on. It’s not like you can go to the local magazine rack and pick up a magazine about unicycling like you can for skateboarding, MTB, BMX, etc.
tell her, very few crazed axe murdering rapists are unicyclists.
or don’t tell her you get on here at all.
thats what I do.
Hmmmmm… I’ll think about that one**
Tell her that the basis of your social development as a useful human bieng in society directly coalates with your ability to communicate appropriately in one form or another, and that this website is one of the healthiest forms of doing so.
Use big words, so she gets dumbfounded and agrees.
Okay I’ll do that.
If she’s worried about who you “chat” with, show her how to search for the threads you’ve contributed to. That way she can see there’s nothing dangerous going on.
She might not like Catboy though.
Thats probably what I should do.
well, some of the threads can get pretty nasty…not so much anymore, but when there was that big total_uni vs. tyler thing goin on, a lot of nasty stuffs were being said.
but usually, we’re pretty nice!
Yeah, just don’t let her see the “chatty” stuff…. If she doesn’t like it, only do it when she’s gone…. Or something.
CHAT!!!
Have you seen the topics here - religion, criminality and the like, we are discussing serious and important topics here. Not chatting!

(PS tell your mum you are safe here with me - trust me I (used to be) a nurse)
I hadn’t really thought about that until you mentioned it, but it’s true…the civility level here has improved markedly over the last few months, even if (OMG!!!) the intellectual level of much of the content has not.
Nice to see.
Just don’t ask why she’s not a nurse anymore.
Cathy
Tell her…I said hi.
Very true!
