Dog pile becomes galactically huge. Mods take notice.
More diagrams.
The arrival of 1 or 2 rational members who try to support the newbie and guide him through the learning process.
Newby instinctively goes for the jugular of rational members.
Rational members bail.
Dog pile now is like the Borg - it assimilates all who enter.
Mods step up the game with sternly worded intervention - "knock it off guys or the thread is closed!"
Mods ignored by all because the goal is to get the thread closed.
Newby implodes and puts everyone on HDF on his ignore list, but continues to post his Google knowledge with, yes, more diagrams.
Yours truly inserts completely unrelated and totally stupid gifs to eat up bandwidth.
More Diagrams.
More gifs.
Did I mention diagrams?
Finally thread gets closed by Izzo who receives a record number of "Thanks".

I was making a little joke because as RK4ME posted in #28 counter steering is not something one has time to think about "Push left, go left. Push right, go right" in an emergency situation, it is just something you do. It should come as natural, without the need to take class, as walking IMO.

Enter early, things get squirrely. Enter late, better fate.

- "sad bitches make me thirsty"
- "Mike, serious question - do you like bikes?"
Funny the OP claims to have never seen a countersteering thread as he made at least one post in the MikerR1 epic (post #18).
