This is probably going to rub some people the wrong way, but does anyone else here not give a fuck about cyclists? I literally have no respect for them.
Think about it. You're on a 12 pound bike with no protection, weaving in and out of your lane, obstructing traffic and gesturing at drivers who overtake you. Meanwhile, they're in 4000 pound machines that are designed to protect the occupant at the direct expense of whatever they hit. If a car and a bicycle collide, there's no question who's getting the worst of it.
But watching how these retards behave, you could be forgiven for thinking its the exact opposite. The most arrogant fucking pricks I have ever seen are cyclists, especially the ones who get all kitted up to ride their shit down major highways.
When I'm driving, I expect any pedestrian or cyclist to have enough common sense to stay out of my way, for the same reason a rabbit should have enough sense to get out of the way of a buffalo.
For what it's worth, I'm a cyclist too. Been riding for the last three years. And when I ride my bike, I make sure to get out of the way of cars, because I'm not a fucking idiot. But even then I have no respect for other cyclists and whatever arbitrary 'rules' they think exist. It makes me laugh every time some autist on his carbon fiber shit-tourer has a hissy fit because I'm in his non-existent lane facing the wrong way or passed him without signalling. Like seriously man, what are you going to do? By the time you get those gay little shoes unclipped to fight me I'll be five blocks away laughing.
By all means, have fun on your bikes. Just don't act like it entitles you to anything.
