No Respect
« on: May 11, 2007, 09:58:43 PM »

OK, not sure if this qualifies as a  :soapbox: but be forewarned


Beautiful SoCal Friday afternoon when I get out of work, so I go for little cruise around town on Elvis. Stop at Starbucks and park E out front right next to where I'm sitting. First incident, jackass smokin a cigarette flicks the butt over the seat ( YES $$$$$ that one) and there's ash on the seat from where the butt sailed over it. I tell the guy he's got the whole damn world to use as his personal ashtray, but not my motorcycle. He starts in with a bunch of chit and says " next thing I know you'll call me an a$$hole "  I says  " No, you're a F#$^in A$$hole "  Evidently the look on my face says don't, cause he leaves. About 10 minutes later, woman pulls up in a silver Honda something that looks like a Mercedes knockoff. Bunch of teenagers get out and one of them walks smack into the side of E. Doesn't say a word, mom doesn't say a word. I say " gee what if I walked into the side of your shiny new car ? "  " You better not " she says. "so why is my motorcycle any different ? " I ask. She mumbles something that sounds like she's dissin me, so I say " you know, I could buy two of whatever that thing is you're driving for what that Harley sittin there is worth "  " As if " she says and off she goes.  So I gotta ask, what the hell ?  Is this a SoCal thing or has anyone else noticed that an expensive motorcycle doesn't get the respect that an exotic car does by the general populace ? I guarantee you, if I'd had even the cheapest Lotus, the story above would not have taken place.

It's the water out there! ::) Bunch of GD water drinkers! Sounds like Long Island. Same kinda idiots! You try being mellow for a change and they wanna mess with you. You do what TC said and wind up the bad guy and in Jail. It's a different world today. But like TC said, some people need to be taught a little respect! ;) Hoist! 8)

I think that bothered me as much as anything Howie. Just wanted to chill and sit in the sun after a typical week in the rat race and I'm not even allowed to do that.

Well if this thread is about venting here's mine.

You go to a bike rally,
You go to a bike event,
You go to the Harley shop,

You pull into a nice spot to park.
WHY and I repeat WHY
Does some dumbass have to park 3.5 inches away from your bike?
There's a whole parking lot, but hell no, they park up close to your bike?

Chip,
      You are sooooooooo right my friend. Sometimes it seems like there could be two bikes in an empty WALMART sized parking lot and the other doofus has to park so close, he kicks my bike when he swings his leg over.

It's almost like they are just plain idiots.
Bikes lean, so when someone parks on my right side 3 inches away whats going to happen when I get on mine and stand it up?
Those dumbasses drive me crazy.

Where's my analyst when I need her??
