If you still had that time machine you could jump forward 60 years, knock them over, shout "See!! I told you!!". Then jump back to the presentCoffee's for closers -
threaded, surely if they are slow enough for YOU to catch them up on your bike, they must be so obese that reaching old age is out of the question?Originally posted by threaded View PostI'll relate a story: in Denmark there is the road, then the cycle path and then the pavement.
An old person was getting out of a car up ahead of me, so being on my bicycle and knowing they would be an obstruction when I reached them, I let off and coasted to a halt a couple or so meters.
Some little tulip went shooting past, clipped the old dears walking stick and caused them to fall.
Later I caught up with them and explained that what they'd done was seriously uncool, and one day, if they were ever so lucky, they'd be old.
Anyways they ran the next red light. I guess they don't plan to become old.
