As for on here, you also have to realize how f*ckin’ invisible the population on here is, in comparison to the rest of the world.. look at these stats:

I don’t know about that, LM. I suspect that many of the registrants just take a look around, and disappear from our secluded little corner of the interweb… I’m kind of glad it’s gotten a little quieter around these parts, myself.…
So even though technically there are 60,000 members.. there are really WAY less than that (the stats say 11,158). Besides, think about it; think about the general population, how many people want to actually put EFFORT into something? These days, not many. These days it’s a “gimme gimme gimme” with no desire to put forth any effort (or very little). Couple this with the risks of injuring your only unit, the fact that you have to actually stick with the routine and oh no, research :eek: :fie: .
So 11,158 actual members here, and over 6 Billion people in the world. Also keep in mind that the people on here are spread amongst the whole world.. it’s not like we all live in the same town; or state for that matter :p .
If there are 6 Billion people in the world (which there are actually a lot more), that means that the chance of somebody to have actually meet somebody on here is 1 / 537,730 (or a percentage so f’in low it doesn’t even show up on my calculator). BUT, keep in mind, that that number includes women. If there’s a 1:1 ratio of men:women then it would actually be a 1 / 1,075,460 (literally not even 1 in a million.. I think my calculator just broke :p ).
Though, the above world population statistic was rounded down over 631 million people, as at the time of this post, there are 6,631,915,998 .. with ~3-4 more people being born every second. That means there’s an even LESS chance of somebody on here being met in the real world (1 / 594,364).
The point? Big unit still is and always will be a rarity. Go out there and f*ck ‘em crazy, you’re definitely not the average joe!
