In case anyone wanted to see the Facebook post being discussed, I’ve posted a screencap. I’ve also blacked out the names of Jamie’s “friends” (even he claims that they’re not really his friends). Edited: Pic link is having issues… also lots of pop-ups. Will repost shortly. ---

Ok, here is [the screencap again](http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/31/jmcg1.jpg/). This time on ImageShack which I believe should avoid the nasty pop-ups of my last attempt. ---

> [@jamiemcgarry](#): > > Below is a link to a short video of me performing a set of my wheelchair-pullups. If you notice a rightward sway as my set progresses, it is due to me being stronger on my right side. This is because of all the scar tissue I have on the left side of my upper back from surgery. Cool video! Which one is you? ---

You can tell because he looks like his head is going to explode because of all the rules being broken: Gym policy, wheelchair manual, insurance codes…hell, I’ll bet the velcro he used says it’s not rated for doing that. ---

> [@bengangmo](#): > > Why does the name Stoid keep popping into my head? > > She’s single right? Do you think we should introduce the two of them? There seems to be a lot of similarities in personalities - but I wonder how their home life would be… Yess!! I thought the same god damn thing. Just think about how perfect they are for each other. Filing frivolous lawsuits until they’re old and grey, being right about everything together, and crusading against “ignorance” until they die of old age. I call movie rights. ---

You know, this thread has gotten down right mean, and I keep waiting (hoping?) for **Jamie** to come in here and post something that will make me feel bad for him. Sadly, every post he makes causes a new round of eyerolls and I just back out again. It’s like a car crash, this one is… ---
