    fatrb38 = fat rib 3 ate
    A child does not learn to squat from the top down. In other words, he does not suddenly make a conscious decision one day to squat. Actually, he is squatting one day and make the conscious decision to stand. Squatting precedes standing in the developmental sequence. This is the way a child's brain learns to use the body as the child develops movement patterns. Therefore, a child is probably crawling, rocks back into a squatting position with the back completely relaxed and the hips completely flexed, and stands when he has enough hip strength. This approach makes a lot of sense and can be applied to relearning the deep squat movement if it is lost. -Gray Cook

    I say 'Zian'. I don't give a **** what you meant it to be.

    We tend to think of Sisyphus as a tragic hero, condemned by the gods to shoulder his rock sweatily up the mountain, and again up the mountain, forever. The truth is that Sisyphus is in love with the rock. He cherishes every roughness and every ounce of it. He talks to it, sings to it. It has become the mysterious Other. He even dreams of it as he sleepwalks upward. Life is unimaginable without it, looming always above him like a huge gray moon. He doesn’t realize that at any moment he is permitted to step aside, let the rock hurtle to the bottom, and go home.

    A lot of my real life friends say "zian" as well, so it's all good.

    Hahahaha this is a weird thread.

    Well whenever I see my own username I read it: Fat R B (like 'Arbie') Thirty Eight. And yes as Xian said, it meant Fat Runningback 38.

    Xian: this is a weird one and I usually think 'Zion' or so.
    Guido: I always thought Guide-o.
    Rookiebldr: Rookie Builder
    WBBIRL: I always think "W B B Earl"

    What are some other strange ones? I can't think of many right now.
