Mike Ballaban is a good voice of reason.

Thank you guys for doing stuff like this. It really is something that makes me so proud of this place.

I’m coming back to this to tell you that you are a good person for knowing how to put your point across and also take a step back and be the bigger person. I appreciate that. A lot. Seriously. Thank you.

I’ve addressed this already.

I was trying to discuss this very same thing yesterday... it seems that people who only drive think that anyone on a bike is instantly a jerk. I think that a lot of people fail to remember that we have to fight to survive, more or less, and that can come across as arrogance. And then there are the people who…

Dear person-

Dear person-

Because I thought that the mentoin of the cyclist getting up and walking around was a good sign. And that’s the truth. I guess we were stunned? I don’t know. But nobody said anything for about 5 solid minutes.

Why did I comment? Really? If someone sees something which reignites awful memories and reminds me of exactly what is was that happened, they’re going to have something to say about it.

Thanks for the idea. I’ll be sure to put it on my agenda of “things Jalopnik readers suggest I do” and report back. Duly noted.

I was afraid it was just me. Thank you for making me feel human again.

Let’s PIT the guy into this fucking on ramp over here. It’ll be fun.

It does not matter in the least if there was something else that happened out of frame. Nothing can be said that is so bad that you see someone ride away on a bike ,at a leisurely pace, take aim, then bounce on the go button and plow someone down while they are on the other side of a 2 lane street with parking lanes…

Patrick, I am not kidding when I say that I literally dropped what I was doing and ran inside to jump online and see if Jalopnik was still a thing when I got the alert on my phone about the news. Thank you for writing this.

Don’t tell anyone, but I’m really just a dinosaur working in a call center. Pay isn’t great, but the hours are nice. We have fun there.

It also confounds me that my initial comment was aimed at other cyclists, with me saying that we need to be more astute and obey laws, rules, and practice common sense and basic human decency and you come along and essentially repeat the same thing, acting like you’ve made some sort of point, when you’re really just…

Oh man, talk about horror... bike lanes. Also known as cyclists’ fast track to the morgue. What that idiot zeosone doesn’t understand is that, even when we follow the law, we’re still in a ridiculous amount of danger because people that don’t ride bikes AND drive cars think that just because their car is bigger, they…

Oh jesus fucking christ, you sad sack of shit. Of all of that, you notice the pattern keyboard issue (and yes, it’s a real thing, not an excuse, and if you think otherwise, fuck you), the only thing you can come back with is that? Oh no... I missed a letter. There are probably a whole bunch of other words I’ve fucked…

Yes. I know they do. I drive a lot (obviously, since Jalopnik because cars), and I see the same thing. However, when I am cycling, I realize why so many cyclists are assholes to drivers. The reason is because drivers are inconsiderate pricks to people on bikes and tend to forget that they do actually have to share the…

Just wanted to thank you for calling me out and not being a dick about it. You’re a good person. Or wombat.
