...so, as two of you know, I bought a new bike last week. I didn't want to go with a mountain bike this time because we ride on the road 98% of the time, so I bought a road bike. But, I wasn't going to spend over $500 for a bike because I DO NOT race...I just ride as hard as I can until I can't ride anymore or I reach my destination. So, I got on Dick's Sporting Goods' website and bought a bike that had good reviews elsewhere. Obviously, I cannot put a bike together and adjust this and that so Beta (I LOVE HER) took it to the bike shop for me. We went and picked it up today and I asked the guy what he thought about the bike giving that I paid $230 for it and he was a jerk. He said, "It's generic," and walked away. He didn't say, "For a first-time bike for a casual rider it will get the job done, but I could have sold you a way better bike if you would have saved up a little bit of money." Then, the fucking guy had his mechanic put a wrong stem on it because he just wanted it out of his shop. FUCK YOU ASSHOLE GUY! I am not spending $1200 on a bike. I DO NOT FUCKING RACE BIKES!!! I was really excited and this guy deflated me...because I didn't buy a $2200 bike in his fucking bike shop. FUCK YOU! I hate you!

/rant

The bike works just fine, by the way (smoother, lighter, and faster than my mountain bike...which is now Beta's bike). So, I win...

is that Don McKellar? - I don't think I've seen that one! - you can see my office in the background for 2 seconds

and I agree - bike store elitists

my neighbour bought a $1200 bike - it was stolen in less than a week - I asked him if he wished he bought a $200 bike like mine!!

haha!

(although somebody did steal my bike too - but I found it!)

people here are nuts about their bikes - they dress up like that dude in Singles - there are gangs of 50 year olds in spandex taking over the roads on Sunday mornings

they think they're cars

because that's how much they spent on their bikes

yes, that's Don McKellar. one of my heroes.

I remember eating a pizza against the window of a shite pizza parlour near regent park. some dude came in and said, "excuse me sir, is that your bike?" (gesturing towards one leaning against the entrance). I said, "no" and he hopped on it and rode away.

i woke up with a weird feeling today. shrugged it off. went off into the outside world and realized that everyone decided to be shitty idiot fucktards today. maybe it was nothing new, maybe just more obvious today, maybe it was some of the imbeciles who i once called friends doing more of the same, maybe it was the moons position... i don't know. all i know is that despite me being nice to everyone i met, almost everyone i encountered deserved a punch in the face for being a complete asshole insincere prick. sounds like it wasn't just in my city, fuck that guy and his bike shop. i hope you told him how you felt (once you got your bike back). what an elitist fuck. gahhhhwd dewwwwd people piss me off sometimes. think i'll just go back to bed and see if it is any better tomorrow. probably won't be.

I think they might always be there but if you squint real hard you can make them fuzzy and the important things come into focus.
