Ah there are days with idiots on the road
Edited on Thu Aug-21-08 10:04 PM by nadinbrzezinski
So I ride my bike to the coffee shop and on my way back I had to ahem stop at the Y. Why? AN IDIOT was on the bike lane blocking traffic.

So I asked the guy to move, since he was blocking traffic

"You don't belong on the road!"

"You mean I don't belong on the BIKE LANE?"

"Damn Bikers, you don't belong on the road! I'm calling the cops!"

"Go ahead!"

He moved in a huff...

Now here is the kicker.

LARGE truck, no mark of being a WORK truck... gas guzzler... with a McCain sticker... the first I see in this town by the way.

Not making any connections... but this WAS A CLASSIC!

2. I'm still laughing to tell you the truth
 shared it with the security guard where i live, since he also rides.

He was laughing so hard... I mean it is a classic


No conversion and the security guard didn't jump out of the bushes.  .01 bongs

Why would someone complain about this on a public forum?  It's silly.  It's a non-event. 

I can think of two things.  Nadin a)wants status for being a bicyclist (it's trendy), and b)standing up to an anonymous freeper is an essential element to any Bouncy.  If this was Nance Greggs, she probably would have written three pages on this.  But wait!  Didn't the DUmmies start a thread proclaiming they NEVER see any McCain stickers?  Why do these improbable events always coincide with a McCain sticker sighting?

I guess all the good bouncy ballers were Hillary supporters.    Too bad the Dump lost a lot.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
