My assertion wasn't past participle. It was an out loud thought such a feat might have now become possible. Joe racer slogging his way through the workday would have no idea, or access to records of, a few guys that never show up on the weekend hold a cat2 license. Everything has a price. Why should you find it unfeasible someone who's self worth is built on increasingly bigger lies and fearful repercussions would have the vanity, neigh audacity, to further corrupt our fair sport?

Satire, like most of what happens only on this site. In other words, the joke had ran it's course and you now ruined it by making me explain the punchline.
