Let's hope all fans of those jerky-camera/rapid-fire scene changes reality shows were sufficiently discouraged by this to never bother us cyclists again.

"Ohmigod! That is SO the guy!" :rolleyes:

At least they built it up with a meeting at some cafe (which got free advertising) and enticed her with photos before completely crushing her hopes on camera, instead of just telling her over the phone that he isn't interested. :roflmao2:

ROADFIX!!!! :love:

Whatever happened to meeting people the old fashioned way, in bars?

Whatever happened to meeting people the old fashioned way, in bars?

The Old Fashioned Way became extinct when Gates, Zuckerburg, or some other IT/Communications genius woke up hungover next to tragic Tiffany in the above video and said, "There's got to be a better way than bars." :p

Reality shows used to emulate people, but now the roles have reversed, and the revolting video above is the result.

Consider role-reversal for a moment: if an unfit, unattractive, and (sorry Tiffany) apparently unintelligent male suddenly fell irrationally in love with a beautiful, fit woman on a bicycle; wouldn't it seem a little creepy, stalkery, and well, just lazy to hire a private detective who looks like George Castanza to accost aforementioned beautiful, fit woman on a bicycle on his behalf? Just get yourself a bike and HTFU on Topanga--you'll stand a much better chance.

Play Misty for me!

Play Misty for me!
I thought it was me, until she went into the physical description,,,,, chiseled chin, fit, etc etc... :lol:

Frankly, I think Tiffany is really cute. Meeting through a private detective based on a single sighting is the stuff restraining orders are made of.

... the revolting video above is the result.

What's revolting about hiring a private "detective" to professionally stalk random men?

I don't think it seemed a little creepy at all! It was super creepy! :twitchy:

I'm trying to envision that dingbat driving up that narrow road checking out all the men on bikes, and it gives me the heebie jeebies.

dingbat

Le mot juste. Thanks TH, that was the word I was looking for.

Why assume the woman on the bike is so beautiful and fit?? (although she apparently appeared that way to the man)

For all you know the two of them are a perfect match ...:)

What if Mr. Chiseled Face blew it by being chicken? Interesting thought.

Moi? assume? No, no... that's exactly what Dingbat in the video did, based on Mr. Chiseled's appearance alone.
You're right about one thing though, for all I know that poor guy is her perfect match, or married, or gay, or a serial killer, or a Catholic priest... the point I was making is that if the Dingbat makes up her mind on the spot that this guy "throws her off" or "makes [her] feel something powerful" based on his looks alone (and we all pretty much look the same in head & eye protection), she's got a long, lonely adulthood ahead of her. (Hmm... make that behind her.)

Rugged, chiseled, outdoorsy, (at least from the nipples up, and from the hips down. :) )

(Hmm... make that behind her.)


:roflmao2:

Anyway, creepy is creepy regardless of the physical appearance of the stalker or stalkee.

Some women have a background check done on a man before they date him, so maybe being introduced to each other by a private investigator isn't such a stretch anymore...:p

but seriously when I posted this, I just thought it was kind of funny, and more so if the guy was someone who reads this forum.

Hahaha--on a first date several years ago, this cool chick I dated for a while said she was impressed with my credit rating, and going 8 years since my last speeding ticket.
Ultimately it didn't work out, but it was still nice to find out my credit doesn't suck. :)
