One of my favorite all-time one liners.
Grasshopper hops into a bar, sits down. Bartender says "Hey, there's a drink named after you." Grasshopper responds, "There's a drink named Bob?"
I bet the bartender was an elitist.

A business man is at a bar when he cups his hand to his ear and starts talking into his hand, pressing the palm as if he were making calls on a phone, etc.
The bartender asks, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, its the latest thing for elitists," said the man. "Ive got a cell phone embedded in my palm!"
After a little while the businessman gets up and says, "Please hold my seat; I'm going to the bathroom."
The man doesnt come back for along while, so the barkeep goes to investigate. He finds the guy spreadeagled against the wall, his pants around his ankles and a strip of toilet paper hanging from his butt.
"What in the H-E-L-L are you doing!?" the bartender shouted.
"Oh nothing," says the man... "just waiting on a fax to come in."

Conjoined twins walk into a pub in Toronto and park themselves on a bar stool.
One of them says to the bartender, "Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm Micky, he's Jim. Two Molson Canadian beers please."
The bartender, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. "Been on holiday yet, lads?"
"Off to England next month," says Micky. "We go to England every year, hire a car, and drive for miles, don't we, Jim?" Jim agrees.
"Ah, England!" says the bartender. "Wonderful country ... the history, the beer, the culture..."
"Nah, we don't like that British crap," says Micky. "Hamburgers & Molson's beer, that's us, eh, Jim? And we can't stand the English; they're so ELITIST and rude, not civil and polite like us Canadians."
"So why keep going to England?" asks the bartender.
"It's the only chance Jim gets to drive."

An hour later, another guy comes in asks the same question.

Given that logic, you are like the bully that has to take a grade over in school.
By the way, there are people that have been here longer than you that have no issue with the constant flow of new members and their "new to them" questions.
Wow, didn't have to flip a coin, your post IS the shining example of the OP.

I kind of enjoy some of the same questions asked by newbs, makes the place more lively and gives additional opportunities to help a fellow cyclist out. So, are the "regulars" basically the same as those crusty, old alcoholics who sit in the corner of a pub pissed at life?
