Maybe it's not callousness, like you guys think. The man is deaf remember. Perhaps it is not as easy for him to have basic conversations as we do and he genuinely feels uncomfortable and unsure of what people are asking him. So instead of engaging with fans, he keeps a distance out of fear of embarrassment or misunderstanding. The research I've done on the guy tells me that that he was picked on and abused relentlessly while growing up and that is what got him into the weight room. I'm just trying to play devil's advocate here.

I think it's strange that a bunch of us nerds are talking shit behind a guy's back. Unless you were one of the people with a story, I don't understand it. I reserve judgement of EVERYONE until I see a behavior multiple times. I'm just surprised how quick we are to cast the first stone.
