How many hours did you spend in the parking lot before you rode on the street? How do you get your bike to the parking lot? I rode down to the end of my street today and had to get help turning the bike around to get home because i got scared. How do I get my bike up/down my slightly downhill/uphill driveway? How do I turn my bike around in the driveway so I can get it out?

Etc etc etc. It's almost terrifying how incompetent some people are.

I sometimes wonder if a lot of of it is just attention seeking behaviour. They know it’s a stupid question, they just want someone to pay attention to them.

I always thought that on the internet at least, it was lonely people looking to have someone pay them attention. But the more people I meet, and realize how fucking clueless they are about everything, I’ve changed my thinking to that the world is really stuffed with dumb people.
