Has WUS jumped the shark?

[deepcdvr]

akin to masterbating with a cheese grater....slightly amusing for a few seconds

I think that would be amusing for zero point zero seconds..

But one other Question about HRVs? ....Is it true that I can fill balloons from it while ascending from a deep dive if I was using my Trimix snorkel?

Yes it is, but not many people know about that.
Should be more threads on it!

[quote="deepcdvr"]and guys that are SATdivers either don't wear a watch, or wear Gs [quote]
That's what I'm talking about

All these "important" issues being discussed about the arcane features of these watches and then you go out in the real world and realize no one dives with a watch anymore and hardly anyone wears a watch PERIOD!

Reminds me of a thread that XTrooper started one time about how many people take their 300m to 1000m watch off and put it in their pocket when it is raining out and have to run to the car. You'd be suprised at how many people actually admitted to doing that

you know, a couple of years ago, I would be surprised at the number of responses over "there" to that question - but these days, there is very little that surprises me. Pretty soon, it'll be "how many of you take your dive watch off to swim?"

Interesting how the different forums (or fora, for you Latin snobs) take on personalities.

DWC seems like a pub, as Red said - spirited conversation, serious topics mixed in with humor. Grown-ups who don't take themselves too seriously.

WUS is like a frat party - lots of boasting and hyperbolic shouting and ignorance.

TZ is like a bunch of guys in bowties at the yacht club, looking down their noses at the design of the latest Patek.

PuristsPro seems like old money guys who have some serious pieces but don't like to brag and stay discrete.

EOT - an amiable bunch of Canadians...

Military Watch Resource - serious collectors group that doesn't tolerate frivolity (the other guy, a guy got scolded for starting a What are you Wearing thread - yikes!).

Haha, I'd say that's about right. Guess that's why I feel comfortable here. Never did like those frat boys.
