The average scanner listener
 
The average scanner listener from years of observation...sorry if this
offends.

5' 71/2"
320 lbs
48" waist
28" stride

Highschool (the MIT of scanner listeners) nicknames:

Frumpy
Pudgey
Dumpy
Stinkpot
Stinky
Smelly
The Round Mound of Artificial Ground

Radios clipped all over him, and he doesn't know when to turn them
off. The seat on his bluejeans hanging almost to the ground. Doesn't
use deodorant because "I have a reaction to it". As digusting a sight
as you'll ever see or smell.

Not even CLOSE to average, maybe you're just talking about yourself?


Oh no, not me, but you're right about it not being close. What do you
think, maybe 5' 3" & 600 lbs? And they're still smelly!

It's a good thing you're hiding behind an anonymous news service.




Teranews is hardly anonymous. What do you want to do, email his
ISP and tell them how your killfilters are so very difficult to operate?

Perhaps if you'd brush your teeth more than once a year the smell would go
away.

Because something needs to be done about these obnoxious, smelly,
fat, out of shape & horrifically boring scanner listeners. They are
the ruination of good, decent communications enthusiasts with their
constant "can you top what I heard" attitude & downright illegal
actions. Plus, they are taking up more than their fair share of blue
jean material with their massive 48-60 " waistlines and 28 " strides.

It's time someone put their foot down and that foot is me!

Troll-O-Meter Reading

Pity you can't do any better than a mere 7 on the troll-o-meter,
Jonesie, old boy. Do try harder next time, okay?

7!!! Me thinks your rating system needs revision, 3 is probably the best
this person rates.

The best he can do is scanner listeners look and smell funny and a lame
assed attempted at mocking simple oneupmanship. How many hobby groups
don't engage in those types of conversations? Last time I checked sharing
experiences was an intergal part of any hobby.

This one needs to do some serious research on how to troll....

I measured my waist at 58", but my stride is 28 1/2". For a minute, I
thought you might have included me and I was about to get apathetic...

Judging by the number of replies, I'd say he did OK.

Surely, you must have mistaken scanner listeners for ham radio operators.

@news.teranews.com:

Other than troll bait, I am somewhat amused and somewhat offended. Sans
the recreational use of scanners and your depiction of those that use
them, how would we describe the average non-scanner user? The non-scanner
user never has to worry about carrying his/her body to various sites
where the scanner may offer enhancements. I attended the Railfest
recently in Altoona PA, scanners abounded. Problem is that to a degree,
your description was accurate of some of the people that I observed with
scanners that day. Others looked and were quite educated. Most have an
enhanced knowledge of technology that accompanies the hobby, the ordinary
non-scanner user doesn't know what a Mega Hertz is, likely attributing it
to a significant pain. Look at HAMS, some also fit into your category,
but they have greatly enhanced technical skills.

The real American physique comes from years of dedicated and incessant
changing of television channels, masterfully wielding the remote, bodies
toned by endless journeys to the refrigerator and toilet. Mind numbing,
pre-conceived ideas promoting whatever the current trend in political
correctness has determined that we need inculcation in. Never mind the
spontaneity of the scanner, the pathos of life, the humor of
misunderstood and misquoted communications, the true awareness of the
crime in your neighborhood. Once, the dispatcher told the police to be on
the lookout (BOLO) for a car and she described it as having "tinted
wendells". An officer called in and asked, seemingly for clarification,
if the car had "tinted wendells", and in the background you could hear
the guffaw of the other officer in the car, obviously in disbelief that
his partner repeated the misquotation verbatim. Or the other day, a woman
at a local Hairstylist, was apparently having an anger fit, likely about
how her hair looked. Oddly enough, the Shop was called "Tantrum Tanning".
How the dispatcher kept a straight face is beyond me. Anyway, the officer
said "in other words, there is a woman having a tantrum at Tantrum". The
dispatcher responded that was correct, and said that she had also thought
of that, she kind of chuckled. See, no laugh track for the mind numbed
American. No one told these people when to laugh, no ability to rewind to
hear it again.

See this page for the verification of the existence of the "Tantrum
Tanning Salon"

I like the scanner dweeb comics, but was unable to find an online page
with examples of them. If I were or am in the category of scanner dweeb,
so be it, there's a lot more degrading things to be associated with.

Regards.
