So in a post called “Dear dickhead motorcyclists, stop making the rest of us look bad.” you’re admitting you do something that’s a dick move that makes us all look bad, because you, a person who’s a dick on purpose, actually believe your safety is more important than anyone else’s, when you bought a machine that’s…

I find this happens really only at hipster bars, and it’s a LOT of the time there. Show up in the wrong outfit and you’re lucky to get served at all.

The fact that at most bars its the only place that’s not a few rows deep with customers makes it the flame for moths for sure.

You may think this, but if every bartender who is perceptive enough to notice every customer is really like this, then holy shit you just cast your entire group as a bunch of assholes.

I’d take a wild guess and say the ricers were scared that even their mad skills aren’t enough when you have twice the power to weight ratio.

Is there a solution to when you do every single thing listed here, every time, and it still backfires on an entire barstaff? I’ve had it happen at a couple of the hipster bars around here over the years, where I’m checking off everything on that list and getting bypassed by every bartender.

That’s reminiscent of the Simpsons episode when Homer’s long lost brother, who owned a car company, said “Ok, now hang up and call back and say the opposite of everything you just said.”

This is why I stopped having a loud exhaust on my car. Every damn idiot in a Civic on the bumpstops would try to race. I’d take off normal speed, and the other guy would act like Dom’s girlfriend just dropped the flag.

I don’t think anyone who can actually afford a Mercedes buys a CLA. They buy a CLA because they want to look like they can, and that’s literally where the thought process stops.

I have a feeling he has a very good idea about said thing.

I agree. I’ve got 13 years experience reporting and I’ve nearly been barred from a damn high school basketball tournament because I didn’t have the right credentials, though those people were psychos because it was in Kissimmee. It’s not like they knew me. I was just a rando, as far as they knew. Smooth talking still…

Jesus. That’s an epic story. As a guy who’s been through Sactown plenty of times, I hope things work out, and one day somebody talks sense into Harley Jackass.

Well dammit man, I appreciate the insight and introspection. Rock on, and let’s all have a fantastic turkey day weekend.

Yeah I’ve had other cars with chips that more or less just smoothed out the throttle transitions, but in my E34 535i the power difference was very obvious right away. I don’t doubt the 20ish hp they claim at all.

C’mon man. You’re so mad that an FWD car with snow tires does better than an AWD car with all seasons that you’re just compelled to tell us that AWD with snow tires is even better?

And still every idiot I know who wants an excuse to buy an SUV that they’ll never use tries to play the whole “snow tires don’t do anything” card.

Kinda like how they show a car hauling ass all over the place in the commercials, but they never show the speeding ticket or the wreck when somebody pulls out in front of you while you’re doing that.

Jesus. My brother was in that helicopter unit until very recently. Frankly I’m hoping he doesn’t find out, because he undoubtedly knew at least one of them and he’s already a little PTSD from the war. RIP, soldiers

You were merely suggesting that riding around with your high beams on at night, illegally blinding the shit out of every approaching driver, is an “old school” motorcycling trick people apparently don’t know about now.
