Pfloydgad Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 In retrospect, I was'nt really upset, but it would have been nice to just ask him "Why" he would say that to a complete stranger, especially one twice his size. I guess it just reinforces a favorite saying of mine."You can't fix Stupid" TY Ron White.Ride safe all, and ATGATT please, remember, someonw Loves you.Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 maybe he thought he knew you? saying something like that is what I usually do when I see someone I know and I know they don't see me.Or he was being sarcastic, and realized "damn... that sounded funnier in my head than when I said it."If someone calls you a pussy and then retreats, they're not worth pursuing. If they call you a pussy and then continue to berate you about it, then they might be worth proving wrong.In the unlikely scenario that a physical confrontation occurs, I would encourage everyone to keep their helmet on. If you do take it off, NEVER use it as a weapon. That could seriously fuck you if police get involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Gear up for the crash and not the rideI told someone "dress for the slide, not for the ride," and they came back with "so you plan on crashing?"I just told them that was asinine. No one ever PLANS on crashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbarron77 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 You are the recipient of a lot of good karma, since you didn't squash the pin head.A proper response to said childish taunt would be "You are what you eat, Dickhead!"On that note, I don't ride without gear either.

NinjaNick Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 In 30 years of riding I've never had someone mention my gear.I always get the "Aren't you hot?" comment. Even if I was, how the fuck does it bother you.Or...This one time I was told that I won't need all that gear after I've been riding for awhile.

JBWalker Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 you should have told him, hey you can wear ATGATT and still be a squid. as in crashing and flying through the air with arms & legs flopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_silverfox Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Rolled to an event on an H-D Road King with custom American Flag paint job wearing my full Aerostitch gear. Had someone ask me "if it was winter yet."I replied, "My jacket and pants are both made in Duluth, Minnesota, in the United States of America. I can't say the same about your vest, chaps, and bandanna." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh1234 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 The question is... Do you think the punk will learn from this that HE'S the pussy, or do you think he'll go on being a dumbassed punk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_silverfox Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Calling you a "pussy" would throw a completely different context on this topic. Point taken.But seriously, I've had people give me the "I'll wear it until I've ridden long enough to not need it" excuse. Then I ask, "Alright, so when are you going to stop riding?"
