Once we get rid of the Iro vs. Surly vs. Bianchi vs. KHS vs. Phil. vs. Don Walker threads this place will be my-t-fine.
But I'll settle for those Chicago nutters taking their banter elsewhere. Ole!

A resounding yes.
Don't piss in a public pool, and then complain about how lame it is to swim at the YMCA. Plus they liked to hog the deep end. Good kids, though. Just a little diva-ish.
Is that a brown M&M? I said no ****ing brown M&M's!
