Posers?
As fixed-gear and Single-speed bikes are becoming more and more visible due to popularity what makes a poser from the people who aren't posers? I never understood the concept of being a poser, and I read a lot of hate on Bianchi Pistas'. So these people who rides these bikes are posers? The people who roll up their jeans, are they stated as posers? Lets admit that it eliminates your jeans from getting caught under the chainring, I do it sometimes too. People who buy clothes from Urban Outfitters... so on, so forth.
I thought the FG/SS culture was to spread awareness not to suppress it. Just like with every other underground culture, why hate on someone when they are trying to learn what you guys have an obsession for? Why hate on a Newbie, everyone had to start somewhere. |

Who. Gives. A. Rat's. A$$?

I feel sorry for Lala because she's had so much work to do around here recently.
|
:) Please do. I'm considering shutting down the fixie/ss forums for a breather.
(But I'm afraid the the Track forum would get deluged.) Listen, BMX is singlespeed, why don't ya'll take a little vaction there.... |

Dammit, I'll feed em...
This is my new t-shirt design. Where you see the sweat stains, you'd dye the fabric slightly darker to look like it was a 'real' sweat stain. Then you could walk your bike to the party and look like you rode hard to get there... http://www.werstnet.com/site_images/...seur_Shirt.jpg Much as I'd like to, I don't think I want to even try making a shirt like this. What would I do if someone actually placed an order? |
This thread reminded me of a song by The Fall, called Shoulder pads.
"All these fads It's shoulder pads On New Year's Dawn To my surprise All the Macca lads stayed at home Picking antiques Encloses Cosy fleck with green bits Main undercurrent, white spermatoze My powers Against them, half-useless My senses Alive have party Was embarrassed but stuck with them Walked, at shoulder, down the street, ridicule They couldn't tell Lou Reed from Doug Yule Suppressed hate romance It was like being back at school My powers before them resound My powers heard language, two-time doom Win populace, internal defeat Their mob had a coup d'etat Realize what they'd always wanted Knew I was right all along It wasn't then a Beatles song Superhero in harlequin kecks Dim-wit lecture, half read Cursing black singers ten years dead Was a clown in victim hat Was shouldered and spurned Then my powers did return.... Watch out you posers and f@gs, here I come in shoulder pads!" |

Cheers, Carl. The same chain is on my bike, so I'm OK with it... |
a person who habitually pretends to be something he is not, is a poser.

Hi everyone. Welcome to Posers Anonymous. I'll start. Hi, my name is Lunacycle, and I'm a Poser-holic. It all started in January when I purchased a shiny, spankin' new Bianchi Pista. Before you know it I was wearing Dickies and drinking PBR (a definite lowpoint in my life). I even bought a mini U-lock, which I (gasp) wore in my back pocket. Needless to say, my life spiralled out of control....

Shoulder Pads #2 "Knew I was right all along Rock to Them, a Talking Heads album Superhero in harlequin kecks Dim-wit lecture, half read Was I - victim in clown hat? Was I - nearly turned Then my powers did return.... Watch out! Makers of fads It's MES in shoulder pads My powers none Powers, said Batman Said a twisted chill, flashes pan It's MES in shoulder pads Big fit deal for mothers of fads It's MES in shoulder pads You'd better Line that bottom line Against that different clan Holding ankles Rotten kecks It's MES in shoulder pads" |
