5 bougie fucks being annoying in one particular situation does not justify this bullshit:

You aren't a car, darwin frowns upon you.

you are literally doing the carbrain thing from the meme here, and the vast majority of bikers on the road and cars crashing into them is a direct result of not having safe or useful paths, lanes, shoulders, anything, and car maximalism like yours.

I see people vaguely like the stereotype you describe maybe every couple months, even in an area where I'm surrounded by bikes. And they're essentially always a minor annoyance at worst. For the other 99.9% of people on bikes, the only reason they wouldn't be using a path is if it's severely compromised in some way or does not exist or go where they need to go. Nobody wants to be in the street with cars for no reason, you just don't know the reason and are imagining it's pure malice/elitism. I'm sure some fucking rich exurb in california has legit problems like the one you describe but it's not representative of anyone else's experience of cycling in america

dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer
