So there I was this morning, avoiding work and posting a perfectly innocent thread about road rage, when some comedian comes along and posts pretending to be the OTHER rider.

I mean really.. that kind of behaviour has absolutely NO place on a bike forum. Really boils my piss/gets my goat/yanks my chain/bashes my bishop

I bet your school reports had lots of "could do betters" and "must try harders" in it.

You have a habit of deciding others are wrong/in the wrong when they are right/perfectly within their rights Molgrip. You invent bizarre rules and regulations then apply them to people that are not even aware of their existence. Psycho rigid. You should see a psy.

Whoah, edukator! You have a bit of a crooked view of things.

People are sometimes wrong, yes that is true. I always have a arguable case though. What's wrong with that? What rules and regulations do I invent?

Are you referring to my joke rants that are meant to be so preposterous that no-one can take them seriously?

EDIT: this thread is meant to be a pure joke btw. It was funnier in my head, granted.

That's what I said elsewhere. Apparently, the answer is: "You heard"... 😕

I reckon me, Woppit, Edukator, TJ and some of the other argumentative bastards on here should all meet up. So we can see that we're probably all decent people in real life.

Or have a massive argument culminating a bar fight.

[i]Whoah, edukator! You have a bit of a crooked view of things.[/i]

And if I were right? 😉

[i]a perfectly innocent thread about road rage[/i]

Think of the assumptions you've made there. That the other road user was some enraged nutter and that your own behaviour was angelic. It may have looked innocent to you but concerned motor vehicles on a bicycle forum - a provocation in itself. And then you make up the rule that other forum users should not take the mickey out of ranting motorcyclists and start another thread to express your annoyance.

Am I right?

I meant that the thread was about MY road rage. I was the one fuming at the keyboard, the motorcyclist was just feeling quietly superior, by the look of it.. And the other thread was a pure joke, not meaning to be annoyed at anyone at all.

Who's making assumptions now? 🙂

Btw the only reasons I posted the original thread were a) catharsis b) cos I thought it'd provide another idle talking point, and c) there might be some comedy pisstaking banter. In the event that was restricted to comedy cross-posting on the foaming piss thread 🙂

I don't fight. Most of the folk I argue with on here I would be happy enough to meet. A couple of them I wouldn't want to meet at all tho.

Anticipate derission, character assassination, outrage and the expression of doubts as to your mental health from other forum mambers?

I very rarely argue in real life.
There just seems to be a far higher proportion of people who are wrong on the internet.
It's my moral duty to correct them.

This is the Internet, taking it seriously is unwise and a sense of humour an asset with or without smilies.

Ha, there was me thinking I was about the get flamed for my cross thread attempt at comedy and the only person it could/should have upset got the tongue in cheek nature of it. Thanks Molgrips, no offence intended (and none taken at this thread).

This forum can be guilty of taking itself a little too seriously at times.
