What an absolute fucking downtube, that guy.
Post your stories of encountering downtubes irl.
Grow up
You're trying to force this way too hard man. Just let it go, not gonna catch on.

>>949978
This. What a bunch of downtubes.
>>949937
3/10 downtube harder next time
is this a new forced meme?
>>950008
No it's a naturally occuring meme
>>950016
that's being forced by 5 people on this board
>>950008
Yes.
>>950008
>>950049
>every conscious choice is forcing
>its only not forcing if it is subconscious
What? Are you new to 4chan?
>>950057
I've been here for 5 years. Not an oldfag, but no, not new.
>>950025
Thats like 25% of this board
>>950073
So basically this board is made up of:
>5 downtube posters
>1 SI shitposter
>1 vegan trike rider (Baconrider)
>1 former-tripfag femanon (AF)
>2 other femanons
>2 downtubers (Wiley and GreatWhite)
>2 trainfags
>2 planefags
>2 boatfags
>1 /o/ shitposter
>moot
>>950076
Make that 6 downtube posters, fuckin downtube.
it makes about as much sense as if /o/ called someone a subframe
>>950076
The weird SI guy is doing God's work and you know it.
>>950049
You're a special kind of retarded, aren't you?
Don't make me hurt you.
>>950076
Pretty much. No wonder it stays slow here. Any sane person will want to flee after just a brief exposure to the shit that's allowed to go on here.
This has become the shittiest board of the lot, by far. I so regret not submiting for janitor duty and killing of the SI autismo and downtube spammer. More than a little perplexed that mods let these two retards drag the whole board down.
>>950187
I dunno anon, I don't think everyone hates SI-senpai as much as you. I, for one, fully support his crusade and it genuinely brightens my day.
Why shouldn't he encourage people to use the correct units and write them correctly? It's a good cause.
>>950192
I think he is more discouraging than encouraging.
forced meme is forced
But shouldn't it have something to do with retrogrouches with downtube friction shifters? This doesn't even have anything to do with that.
>>950192
Because he is a retarded downtuber. If he said "Please read the SI broschure" that would be completely fine, but he says "Please re-read the SI broschure" while knowing full well that the person he replies to has probably never read it (if it even exists?), hence his use of the word "re-read" is erroneous and he should kill himself by choking on a downtube.

>tfw I have downtube friction shifters
If you dislike them, you're a downtube.
But really downtube comes down to two things
>sounds like down syndrome
>enjoys being ridden by bearded men (aka a faggot)
>>950337
>>enjoys being ridden by bearded men (aka a faggot)
So for men, downtube means faggot with down syndrome, and for women, it means slut with down syndrome. Apparently.
>>950338
Sounds accurate.
>>950129
>knowing about car components
Cager detected.
>>950337
>(if it even exists?)
Found the downtuber.
>>950941
fuck you downtube
