People, by and large, are blithering idiots. This is a known fact.

What I do find annoying, are the dweebs who ask about my bike, and then proceed to tell me their fucking life's story.

"I had a bike just like that a long time ago, (no you didn't) it was real fast, (no it wasn't) but mine was red (good for you) I had to sell it 'cause my wife didn't like it (she married you, how smart can she be?) and now I have a bad knee so I don't ride anymore (yet, ironically, your mouth still functions perfectly) but it sure was fun (yeah, big fun, any other information you think I need to know?)."
