We've had a few threads on here about shorthand and slang that rile people. From memory we have

minty
spangly
campy
bonty
spesh

etc
etc

However a brief visit to our dear chums at stw reminded me of one which is more irritating than all of these combined (for me at least)

darkside

Arrrghhh. And to make it worse the thread which includes 'darkside' in the title invariably includes some half cocked carbon road bike with the stem on upside down, a triple and 10 headset spacers half of which are above the stem :twisted: Good grief.

Oh but I like using that word....it's a bit of fun, like " The School of Wrong. "

not fun, just wrong, plain wrong :evil:
 
Is the mighty Floyd's 'Darkside of the moon' included?? Would be a shame to cast it asunder- top album!

But i would like to turn my spesh to the darkside, build with spangly campy and bonty stuff..........that would be minty.
