I have been in a posting rut for much of the last year. I've had plenty of stuff keeping me busy and on my toe's in my personal life, but it's more than that....I just haven't been inspired. The oscar Weber saga, my lack of optimism about the 2015 football cats and Bill's progressing dementia can really get a guy into a posting funk.
I am going to try and pull this sucker up out of a decline. I am open to ideas on how best to do this, but I think I'll just throw myself into combo fanning.

Pete, remember when Moose was in a rut? Now look at him now! Wow! You've got this.

Pete,
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take!

i'm with you pete -- feel like i've been rutting around for a few years, really. i've often thought about "hanging it up," rather than continuing to sully my once proud posting record. i need a kick in the ass to really get me back on track.

the bbs handbook says the most reliable solution is to start a thread where you ask people to ask you questions which you then answer.
-
find yourself a muse. (i don't know how where to find muses).
-
Pete, maybe a good photo shop topic could do the trick?
-
Start simple and pi some browns
-
When the best posters post things like this, it makes me question my own existence.

i read this thread title really quick and thought it said roasting nuts

Pete, remember when we had the thread that was "_______'s typical post" and we couldn't come up with one for you? Maybe you need a schtick.

bump that thread

I think pete's schtick is that he is the voice of reason. Not really a ratings grabber, ya know?

Hmmmm, then how did you reconcile the "Best ways to get out of them" part of the thread title? Did you think I was being coerced into nut roasts?

i've been a caricature of myself for like three or four years now.

It's bbs-wide. It was bound to happen.

omg me too. now i'm hungry.

You need a protege.

i have been trying to think if I have ever been in a bbs rut, and I can't think of a time right now

Did you also think I was being forced to roast nuts against my will?
-
pick an active poster and follow them around until they flip out on you and then continue following them around but say that you arent until they flip out on you even more and then admit you are following them around but say it in a way like you are being sarcastic but really you are following them around

Maybe they thought you meant "best way to get them out of the shells after you roast them".

i didn't get that far. my brain was already imagining you roasting nuts before i got to the "to" part of "best ways to get out of them, etc"

All I saw was "Re: Posting Ruts - Best ..." on the main page

It's a confidence thing, Pete. Pick someone like, say, meow meow and only post right after him for a while. Your posting will immediately skyrocket in perceived value.

Great strategy. (I am now assuming this is why people don't post after I do. INTIMIDATION!')
Gonna win 'em all!
