Congradulations, you've ground half a city to a halt with your stupidty. BRAVO.

Thank you for sharing your misery so well.

Because really, nothing says grace, class and sophistication like a purple Mohawk

Good thing summers over, my purple has now transended back into "Deadly Nighshade" red with a streak of "Blood Red" Dog forbid people should consider me unclassy and unsophisticated...

True punks - who more or less started the crazy-hairstyle thing - look scary but are actually quite nice people. There are so many imitators these days, though...

You know, it just occured to me that Captain Colourblind might actually be able to recognize himself from this story if he were reading. So, Captain Colourblind, if you're reading this: On behalf of the people of Vancouver, Fuck you, good sir.

This would be a good candidate for the corncob pokey thing list...

TUT TUT TALLYHO!! Fuck ya, Double Word Score!!

[DGoddessChardonnay]

I've seen people looking like that.

Sadly, it was on purpose.

Either that or everything else in their wardrobe was in the laundry hamper.

Yeah, some of the nicest people I've seen in Vancouver are the leather clad Harley Davidson bikers. Its kind of funny. They're always the first ones to get up and offer their seat to an old lady on the Skytrain and what not.

Something seems so wrong about that, yet so right.

Is this zen?

Zen.... and the art of motorcycle maintenance.

There are several kinds of bikers.

- Some ride a crotch-rocket with a big engine, or a performance "trail" bike. These are the ones you usually see being complete idiots on the road.

- Some ride a glorified scooter, a basic bike, or a touring bike with big panniers. These guys use the bike as transport, and they're usually relatively sensible.

- Then there are the Harleys and other "cruising" bikes. These guys are usually concerned more with style than performance, so while they might make a lot of noise (Harleys are very distinctive in this respect, due to their unique engine design), they're not frequently obnoxious. The leather jackets, tattoos and so on tend to go with this.

Also, while many bikers may look scary with all of those tattoos, piercings, and leather, they're generally exceedingly nice people. Appearances can be quite deceiving.

At least, the genuine bikers are. Then you have the wanna-be crowd who are just thugs.

And then there is the Hell's Angels

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

There's a Harley biker group around here called the Ant Hill Mob who are pretty big into charitable activities in the area.

So yes, appearances can be deceiving.
