"the football system is stretched above your foots"
Looks like one of those off road skateboards that came out years ago, that had proper foot straps which you need if you are really going to sail it.

The actual advertising copy sounds quite terrifying:
Quote: "The 'footbelt' system is stretched above your foots. It is a flexible line what you will love in case of jumps, and edgy cornering. You can pull out your legs any time."

Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Welcome to CP - the friendly alternative to SO!

CP lets crap sit around and people revel in flaming it.
SO gleefully deletes both the crap and any flames that get in before the big red button gets mashed enough times.
Both have people wailing about how mean and evil they are.
Only one is blighted with large amounts of lingering crap and abuse. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It might have been rude, agreed, but that doesn't mean I'd doubt the veracity of that statement.

It brings to mind the snotty nosed kid at school who would bite and scratch for no reason, then run crying to the teacher as soon as someone called him a retarded mongoid*
* Yes, we did call him that. Welsh boy** if I recall, went back to the valleys and his sheep.
** Tis true.

I've contributed a lot to QA and have had some "discussions" with this person and I have come to believe that he is not intentionally rude at all. I know this may not be a popular opinion but he gives incredibly detailed solutions and spends a lot time trying to help. Granted, the tact may be lacking but I believe the intent is good.
Just saying.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You're thinking of "The roads of Luton are littered with drunks"

I fully agree with your opinion. Anyway I'm doing my best to avoid any possible new "discussion" with him.
THESE PEOPLE REALLY BOTHER ME!! How can they know what you should do without knowing what you want done?!?!

True. I just ignore it if he ever gives me "positive feedback."

The policy of non-engagement hasn't worked - quite a few people (me included) have adopted this years ago & he's not gotten bored and gone off. Conversely several erstwhile high profile members have simply stopped posting. I'm at a loss of what else to - do any attempts to rebut his statements end up with protracted discussions that don't achieve anything because of the absolute self-assuredness, who has the time for that?
TBH I only come here for the Lounge now, I even point the apprentices I'm training at SO first, which is sad because I'm not a fan of the points-hooering over there either.

I've also considered stopping answering on QA. It's a real shame.

I would have to agree with you. I actually find him to be quite reasonable and fair (at least most of the time). I can even find some of the replies about him here in the Lounge more rude then he ever was.
I also have seen much worse replies from the early days, when there wasn't much restrictions on how to reply.

Yes, he can get blasted here sometimes. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who gives him the benefit of the doubt.

I think you upvoted my massage, but someone has marked it as Spam/Abusive. Go figure.
PS. If it was you I must apologize
