"You need to watch your mouth, asshole!"

[KamaAina]

actually snarled at me this morning by some mook who was riding his bike on the sidewalk (perfectly legal here, outside Waikiki and downtown :grr: ), after I called him a bad word when he passed me.

"You need to watch your mouth, asshole!" What is wrong with this picture?

FAIL.

[Bertha Venation]

1. LOL

Irritating, though.

[rockymountaindem]

2. I don't think he was saying "don't say bad words, asshole"

I think he was saying "watch your mouth and don't call *me* a bad word or I'll kick your ass".

[Symarip]

3. Yeah, asshole

I just felt like calling you an asshole.

lalalala

[suninvited]

4. If it is perfectly legal there, why did you call him a bad word?

Although I do get the irony of his statement...

[HEyHEY]

7. Yeah!

That's what I wanna know.

[KamaAina]

8. He passed me from behind with no warning whatsoever

roughly equivalent to you tooling down a two-laner doing 35 while Jimmie Johnson comes roaring by in the Lowe's #48. :scared:

11. Maybe he needed one of these

5. Cyclists just can't win.

People complain if they're on the sidewalk, people complain if they're in traffic. Not everywhere has a bike lane, so they have to ride somewhere.

9. I voted for a bike lane initiative a couple of years ago

both for selfish (see above) and green reasons.

Goodness only knows when they'll actually get built, though. :eyes:

6. Maybe if you weren't driving on the sidewalk, Moran!

:rofl:

:hi:

[KamaAina]

10. I only got off the street because

I had to get around this giant SUV that had Dallas Cowboys stickers on it. :P

[Jamastiene]

12. What are you doing driving on the sidewalk?

:spray:

[KamaAina]

13. There is a bumper sticker that reads "If you don't like the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk!"

This sticker was employed to maximum effect on the back of a power wheelchair!!

14. I don't think my asshole can actually see my mouth

It would therefore be very difficult for my asshole to actually watch my mouth, as he suggested. Of course, I could probably stand in front of a mirror, and sort of twist around. Yeah. That would probably work.

15. Almost as good as something one of the geeks I hang out with at school said the other day...

"Fuck you, I'm being nice." :P

Only it actually made sense in context. Which just made it even funnier.
