Ok, this is when you know when the fixed gear thing has jumped the shark. My mother knows I bought my pista last year and i explained to her what it was--track frame for the street--direct drive, etc. etc.

Yesterday my 60 yr old mom calls and i say i cant talk, i am going out for a ride. She asks: "Oh, on your fixie?"


Arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!


I said, "where did you here that and please don't ever call serentity [edit: serenity] a 'fixie' again."

Don't ever misuse the root noun 'seren'.

Ever. I'm serious.

Welll, you know, this could have been avoided if you stalled your ride 10 minutes to talk to your mother.

You're looking for hear not here, the first sentence is nonsensical, and the title is useless.





I'm really hoping you're drunk.

I'm no english teacher. I just like pointing out other's shortcomings.

Well, as a matter of fact I did happen to consume more than one libations this evening my fine sir. While I may have made a few inadvetant spelling errors, I take umbridge at your attempt to besmirch my good name and reputation on this forum!

I don't knoww about you guys, but that's my new term for being drunk right there.

Also, every time you spell "grammar" wrong in the course of *****ing about others', god kills a kitten. If you're just trolling, he kills a beagle puppy too.

Hey. I said I hoped you were drunk.

I'd imagine people will look at the title, read a few posts, then say "aaaargh" at the lack of content and move on. At this point you'd probably get away with giving youself a few points back.

I said, "where did you here that and please don't ever call serentity [edit: serenity] a 'fixie' again."

This immediately made me think of the Blue Raja:

"Mom, I can't even count how many rules you are
breaking right now. One: Always knock. Two: Don't sniff around
outside my door. Three: Do not interrogate me."

"Mom--You...you're cheesing me off so bad right now, just
please--Good night."
