[Closed] Is Hora bashing acceptable?

Education standards these days are really improving, aren't they? Especially spelling.

😉

I have no idea what you mean flashy, woof! 🙄

It's cyber-bullying for sure.

The ChocolateFoot "interviews" with various riders always had the question "Is Hora a C-U-Next-Tuesday?" in, regardless of the underlying interview theme. I think everyone answered in the affirmative.

It seems to me more joshing than bullying - though also rather unoriginal.

I think Hora is a decent bloke. Says some stupid things ( like blaming Labour for the £100 parking fine - its SNP) that exasperate me fairly often but he is not abusive nor unpleasant.

I think attacking people is a sure sign of a insecure plonker

bashing? as in ring piece?

hora is a sound bloke............
we all say some stupid things from time to time, we then realise what we have said and done.................unlike teej, barnes, gg/ernie..... 😉

we then realise what we have said and done ...unlike teej, barnes, gg/ernie

I'd be interested to hear how you are able to see inside my thought processes...

i've never posted anything about/to him on here that i wouldn't say (or indeed haven't said) to his face. he's a bit of a plum on here sometimes but a decent enough bloke really.

i met hora once!

Lol @ CFH, my bad 😉

I'd be interested to hear how you are able to see inside my thought processes...

like reading a childs book............ 😉

but seriously as in we realise the error of our way's and usually apologise...........unlike you 3.

What threads are we talking about anyway?

Hora's alright...takes a mickey pulling better than most. And he doesn't go threatening people, isn't that right ton?

Some lightning editing went on at the beginning of this thread btw.

Did you try & buy a bike related part from him Tony (Jedi) ? 😉

Sorry, this was meant to be a well meaning thread...

[i]i met hora once![/i]
I can see that emblazoned on a t-shirt 🙂

Ton - if anyone shows that I have got something wrong then I will allways apologise - and have done many times.

I have opinions that stray far from the consensus and am prepared to justify them. I can justify them.

Ton - mind that beam in your eye!

I like Hora. Comes across as a decent bloke to me. Talks a combination of complete shite, and (less often) remarkably enlighten wisdom. I have always been impressed with the amount of flak he can take, not that many people can.

Keep your pants on folks, this is a local thread for local people, pay attention at the back...

Lol @ Ian Munro BTW.

london street ride 🙂

I've said it a thousand times: If he didn't exist, we'd have to invent him

Hora is an internet-based metaphorical dog. The one we all kick when we're in a bad mood. He's actually government funded as a public service 🙂

Lol @ binners, I think this thread could keep me amused all night, albeit on different levels...

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Hora reminds me very much of SFB: a complete cock on the forum, but actually nice when you you meet them in real life. When Hora heard that he was torn between preening himself and being insulted 😉

I met him, seemed a decent bloke

Oh right, I didn't realise there was a post-modern ironic sense to the thread. I'll go and see if I can find it.

Of course it's acceptable and expected. If Hora didn't set himself up as the resident forum masochist he would probably have to go elsewhere for a damn good slapping.

CF was highly amusing and far more vindictive than here and he appeared to love it.

He is IMHO a self centred, self-obsessed, self-promoting dickhead who will undoubtedly have to rush to the toilet after reading this 🙄

Double LOL @ Woody, post of the day 😉

If anyone would actually like to kick him, I can do it on your behalf. I can nip out and give him a shoe-ing now. He's only down the road and I'm feeling a bit tetchy to be honest

lol... he;s sound. Nice guy.

and usually apologise...........unlike you 3.

how do you know I've never apologised ? And why lump me with 2 other people who have nothing to do with me ?

Simon. I have to ask you. Have you ever started a fight in an empty room? Just wonderin, like 😀

how do you know I've never apologised ? And why lump me with 2 other people who have nothing to do with me ?

just a hunch
and cos i wanted to.............. 😆

Hora has had a relatively easy ride over the last few years.

But he is a hairdresser, right? 😉

the whole 'having a child' thing is such a flimsy charade. Does he seriously think we can't see through it. Who on earth does he think he's kidding? He's as gay as a window. Have you seen his dog FFS? He wants to be Paris Hilton!!

😆 😆

Can this get any better, I've just spat beer at the screen! 😀

I think Binners is right. It's just a timely excuse to cover his recent lack of posting due to [url= http://www.onrec.com/news/uks_first_online_recruitment_and_employm ]THIS[/url]

eh wots happend

Has hora been banned or something? Feeling rather out of the loop!

Hora reminds me very much of SFB: a complete cock on the forum, but actually nice when you you meet them in real life

Oi! I'll thank you not to blow my cover!

If anyone would actually like to kick him, I can do it on your behalf

Goodness me, that is so wrong. There are many other people I would like to kick on here.

he craves attention and a fawning audience which STW gives him in abundance. he's gorging on this thread like a corpulent child in a sweet shop, feeding his narcissistic psychosis.
i still think he needs professional help.

We're all attention-whores on here. I feel so at home 😀

LOL! I bet he is. 😆

He can take it hard ... he is a real man. Give it to him. Give it.

😆

I saw him eating a sandwich once in France, he was reading the paper, it was a broadsheet, maybe The Observer
it looked like a postage stamp next to his gargantuan jaw
.
I also bought some forks off him; they were well priced and worked well
.
end of story

I think a lot of the "bashing" is just people posting reasonable replies to his rather painfully contrived opinions. That is all. A well-known MTB industry type has started Twittering some of his more ludicrous comments, which I reckon could be seen as irresponsible if you took the view that he was likely to run off and slash his wrists, but I don't really see him as that sort of chap. 🙂

FFS whats happend??????

I once heard him described as a mongoloid George Michael which seemed about the best way of describing him at the time.

Nice enough bloke in real life but he says some down right stupid things on the Internet. Some are intelligently designed to provoke a response. Some are just stupidity.

As for a kicking on line. One reaps what one sows....

Hora is certainly Bespoke

I did get a 2 day ban for calling him a not C**k, I realise that was wrong, he is a nob jockey... 😀 (joking)

Just don't ever offer to hold onto concert tickets for him

I await a further ban

Tango man. Serious question, do you like AFI?

hora reminds me a lot of someone that's a really good friend of mine who speaks complete offensive rubbish sometimes but is a really good, well-meaning person despite that.

Its the internet. Its the only place I can act like I am a hardened pugilist 8)

binners, you and Paul riding this Sat? Iain's got a lift with me.

PS if he doesn't like it, we (everyone) should leave off, otherwise it's narsty.

He always seems genuinely surprised that his more, umm, 'obscure' experiences and points of view aren't shared by the rest of the stw community (or, indeed, the human race).

There's not many of us have our own hash tags on twitter and entry in wikipedia, though.

i remember that london street ride Jedi. you mate never work a helmet just a bennie hat. i think he was doing some "big" stuff. was his name prozac or some thing?

How I see it, the internet is for buying things and mucking about. Re: Twitter, I imagine they are 'normal' on the net but flounder in real life 😉

1111- the guy on the Evil Imperial?

i cant remember what he was on.

Prozac? Oh I couldnt help that 😆 🙄

He is a good guy in real life and an amusing aside on here. He is clearly an attention whore but in a good way like other vocal members on here STW would be a poorer place without him

Define 'hora bashing'. As a new parent I wont be getting enjoying my conjugal rights. Please feel free to offer me a 'bash'.

I've gone from hating him to tolerating him and now I quite actually like him, he takes everything that is given to him without reacting like a total twit, he's an attention whore alright but I'm sure he would admit to that and yes he is probably loving this thread (it is interesting and not surprising to see that certain people have tried to turn this thread onto themselves).

One question still baffles me though, how the heck does someone like Hora survive in the recruitment industry?

KINGTUT, when are we going swimming?

(it is interesting and not surprising to see that certain people have tried to turn this thread onto themselves).

Yes, I noticed that too...the usual suspects. "All About ME!!!"

Hoorah for Hora? I based my recent bike purchase decision partly on his advice and I'm v pleased with the steed... anyway what are internet forums for if not to be a bit silly and controversial?

how the heck does someone like Hora survive in the recruitment industry?

TBH i have heard he is very good at his job.

i have had many a drunken night down our local with hora and a few other mates, and every time hora would make us laugh at some thing he has done, said or seen that week/day/hour. I dont like it when people who don't know him (other than on the forum) take the p1ss just to look cool.

Hora bashing is the internet version of spanking ones monkey over streaming videos of 'real amateur couples'

we know it's not really real

we know it's wrong in the eyes of god

but everybody does it

I've never met the fellow but prefer to follow Binners proposition that he is a government sponsored internet myth. He's even on my facebook.

He gets it easy on here compared to the old days of chocolatefoot.

KINGTUT, when are we going swimming?

Anytime Hora, although it's not always naked nubile Eastern Europeans though last night it was mainly hairy bears.

The best thing about Hora is that (by his own admission) he has no filter whatsoever between what goes on his his deseased mind and what comes out of his mouth.

I have on many occassions sat agast in the pub as he comes out with the most randomly innapropriate and offensive comments. Normally to anyone female.

And Hora - yes I am riding Saturday. Where we going? And you best turn up cos you owe me money. I haven't forgotten and I know you've been avoiding me. This ridiculous 'I've just had a baby' ruse isn't fooling anyone!

. binners - we're doing a 20 mile peaks epic.

I think its called no 'inner-monologue'.

20 miles? That'll take Hora all weekend! I'm in!

Hora - would you ilke to ragale the good people of STW as to exactly WHY you owe me money. Or shall I do the honours?

Just to confirm some peoples suspicions that you are in fact a complete idiot? 🙂

his ebay/classifieds antics are legendary.
this one made me chuckle:

"deadbeat. do not deal with. avoid this ebayer"

I find Hora a thoroughly honest, down to earth, patient and funny human being.

This thread is going gay Pook 😯

binners. My old car ate it 🙄

£40 is waiting for you on Sat. hora junior will go hungry 🙁

you love it big boy.

as hora jnr is a week old, i dread to think where you are getting that £40 from.
