1) Scared of bullets, especially those flying towards me.
2) Sacred of guns, especially those aimed at me.

there's more useless information on here, ergo, BF is more important. Second place is facebook. Then email.

Yup, those two would make my list. :D

I suffer from a phenomenon called Social Facilitation.

I am wearing brown shoes with a black belt.

I don't get the point of a majority of the threads here, including the ones I start.

I tell my wife that the lion's share of my credit card balance is due to kid-related expenses like sports camps.

Sanman023 05-11-11 02:16 PM

Hulley 05-11-11 02:33 PM

I dream of being "Lost" on a tropical island.

miwoodar 05-11-11 03:15 PM

I ate two lunches today and might queue up a third. I would shrivel away if I ate like a normal person.

I do not use a mirror, when riding my bicycle.

What the body does not need- it looses. You spend months getting into shape, get hit by a car, end up in rehab after multiple surgeries with 30 % of your prior muscle and think wtf. However through all that stress and trauma the body is seamlessly using and doing what it needs for it to survive. A marvel of efficiency.

I don't do it purposefully, but sometimes I'm amused by the startled reaction of pedestrians when I unexpectedly pass them on the MUP.

Even though I did five double centuries last year, I still feel like a cycling fraud because I don't race. I rarely wear my California Triple Crown jersey because I don't feel worthy.

I like that my new Roubaix's more upright position means my neck doesn't hurt after a century, but feel guilty because I'm sure I should be in a flat-back racer position.

I think all the local cyclists look silly in their lycra kits, but still somehow imagine I look cool in mine.

Quote and re-quote. I feel the exact same way.
Me " do I look as ridiculous as that mamil (middle aged man in lycra)"
Wife " Yup"
Me " really"
Wife " Yup"
Me " Hmmmm"

Why are you not ringing your bell?

I'm teaching them to be more observant of their surroundings.

rjones28 05-11-11 08:22 PM

I have considered putting a bell on one of my bikes.

"I can't even count" :roflmao2:
