I have to say that I laugh uncontrollably at these posts, I never posted replies to any of them, but they knock me on my ass.
Anybody who trains hardcore can relate to the eating, the workouts, getting pissed at gym members who are there to do anything besides get jacked, this fictional character is just like one of us hardcore lifters, except blown up about 10 million times. How can anybody on here serious about getting big not roll on the floor laughing reading about VG walking into McDonald's and ordering everything on the menu, then puking after forcing down every last bit????
As far as gay bashing, picking on old men/women, beating up women, the things said about animals......it is done in such a ridiculous manner that it is impossible to take offense. I am an animal lover all the way, when I read some of his posts about eating dog meat etc. it is so ridiculous that I can't possibly get offended. A dude I grew up with is gay and he is into working out and I email him this shit and he is hooked, because again, VG makes a mockery of himself, he is basically saying look what a ridiculous asshole I am. Again, I don't see how ANYONE can take offense at all to any of this. I think it is brilliant work and I would pay money for a book of stories like this with illustrations to boot.
By the way, I think VG said someplace he is 6'1 and 275lbs and his bodyfat % was some ludicrous figure like 2%. Nobby's stats were never mentioned, but I always pictured him about 5'10" and 300lbs, about 20% bodyfat, never clean shaven, and missing a tooth here and there. Nobby is definitely stronger and thicker than VG, but VG has the better physique. Nobby can kick VG's ass in a fight, but I figure he plays the role of sidekick and lackey because he isn't the brightest guy, and VG of course is Eaton educated.
