Hipsters struggling to accelerate on their fixies.

PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago  or at  5:25PM on Saturday, August 21 2010 in stupidity

I always see them maneuvering their ridiculously large bikes around pedestrians on footpaths, wobbling from side to side as they struggle to pick up momentum.

Guess what? Sydney has hills, and is therefore no place for a single-gear bicycle. Also, bikes belong on roads and you should be wearing a fucking helmet.

P.S. You suck at cycling.

I should of added that the wobbling is the part I find most humourous.

I don't sound like that.

Now I wish I had written this:

I've started to enjoy these hipster threads, as it makes it easy to know who to dickhead


PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago:

Please don't dickhead me, I'm sorry I offended your bike.


PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago:

But seriously, you should think about trying some other gears.

PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago:

But it's true, they really do have trouble gaining momentum.

I ride a mountain bike. Does this mean I'm not a hipster?

Of course not. Your bike doesn't define you.


raven  said about 1 year ago:

Fixies are retarded. I endorse this thread.

Thank fuck for that, because at the moment it's got possum wee and poo on it.

i would like a moratorium on the word ''fixie''


bebop  said about 1 year ago:

Are you a hipster pondreppelent? The people who talk most about them tend to be hipsters, or at least the most scared that they are one


najort  said about 1 year ago:

This thread is solid gold cream shit!


eucalyptus  said about 1 year ago:

I know a guy who spent $5000 on a fixie. He's more a raver/metro than a hipster. That's the only time I've ever seen one.

I predict in Melbourne in the coming months we'll see a series of coolsie related bike fatalities. Cycling at night wearing dark clothes with no light and no helmet is a quick path to serious injury (or death). For the life of me I can't understand cycling at night without a light, is it uncool to have a light on your bike?

yawn


Block  said about 1 year ago:

Are you all tuckered out from riding your fixie, rosevich?


JRB  said about 1 year ago:

I thought Hipsters were all replacing their fixies with Honda Jazz's.

I see at least 10 every day.

I have to agree with all of this.

the thing that made you a dickhead was being so obsessed with something you wrote that happened to be absolutely pointless and dull that you edited it over and over again as if you were perfecting a work of art.

I agree that was lame. It was bothering me because I was supposed to put it in the first time but forgot. Wish you could edit your posts. It bothered me in the same way that other people leaving lights on in rooms they aren't in bothers me... I always have to go turn it off for them.

None of my posts are very clever, anyway. I'm no arts student, so everything I type is going to be pointless/dickheady. You might have noticed.

Also, something that makes you a dickhead is that, three days after this thread re-appeared, you decided to search for it and bump it again to post something you had probably been thinking about the first time you saw this thread.


MATTPHEONIXxoxoxo  said about 1 year ago:

stop being so repellent


PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago:

k


MATTPHEONIXxoxoxo  said about 1 year ago:

Morris Iemma  said about 1 year ago:

No, I didn't search for this thread specifically and I responded to it the first time I saw it.

You don't have to be an Arts student to be intelligent and you don't have to be intelligent to be an Arts student.

Profound.


PondRepellent  said about 1 year ago:

I call a truce... Friends?


Bugsy.  said about 1 year ago:

you have an unhealthy obsession with hipsters. is it because your other was a hipster and she didnt give you enough love and attention.
