Also the whole fucking existence of "Critical Mass" elevates my anti-bike rage by 3 points at all times, including while asleep.

don't ever go to Portland ... you will pop several veins.

I drive, bike, and walk in NYC, and the cars are hands down the worst, even when I'm in one.  Bikes seem fine, except for the occasional meth-y bike messenger, but I haven't seen many of those since the early 90s.  One thing Bloomberg has done well is making the city more bike-friendly, which means more bicyclers, which means a more mainstream profile, which (combined with clear bike lanes) generally means less chaos.

Though I will admit some surprise at how many people just walk about into traffic.  I understand if you have the right of way at a crosswalk, because a lot of drivers are just fuckers and will threaten to careen into you, but I don't get just strolling out into the middle of a busy thoroughfare.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

This thread is for bitching, not whatever it has devolved into.
Breakfast- I'm havin' a time
Wheelies- I'm havin' a time
Headlocks- I'm havin' a time
Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

I hate being told what to do on internet message boards.

I'm getting sick of irony.

I got into a pretty interesting car accident situation today. I was stopped a light and got hit from behind. When I looked in my rear view mirror, it was a cop car. I didn't get hurt too badly; I do have whiplash. An ambulance took me to the hospital and I've been dealing with insurance and paperwork for the rest of the day. Needless to say, I won't be doing any thrashing any time soon.

Thanks, Martin. No, I did not beat up the cops, although if he had just wanted to give me a ticket, he could have pulled me over.

Hope you're OK. 

Or: I hate FOT injuries.

Thanks, S2G. Feeling more sore today but it's not unbearable.

twenty year olds with fake IDs who spend the whole evening/early morning drinking, then leave, hit their friend's car, they argue in the street then they turn around and hit my car and continue to bumble through their apology as i call them on the fake ID, the expired insurance card, and the fact that the chevy silverado on their dad's insurance is actually their ford pickup, then tell me you'll take care of it out of pocket so i dont have to call your insurance.

don't fuck with me at four in the morning after YOU hit MY car.
