After my tributes to DOWN and Pep, here's a lil review that explains in a few points why every sane people in this world should worship Kirk Windstein.
Sorry in advance for the English, I made a huge translation effort but English is not my mothertongue (corrections appreciated, if any needed)

No, this is much better. :tup: It's funny but not offensive.

Sorry if I change this thread into a vocabulary thread but here's what I found :

Quote:
Adj. 1. hefty - (of a person) possessing physical strength and weight; rugged and powerful; "a hefty athlete"; "a muscular boxer"; "powerful arms"
Synonymous : brawny, sinewy, muscular, powerful

hefty
adjective (Informal)
1. big, strong, massive, strapping, robust, muscular, burly, husky (informal), hulking, beefy (informal), brawny She was quite a hefty woman.


I think it fits... Frankly, english is quite a pain in that it has so many words to express one thing... :bash:

I think you mean "heavy," but maybe not. :noclue:

I don't think it came across as insulting or anything. I think the original wording was really good. Just made me chuckle.
