Just a helmet is fine and still 99.99% as fun
Is it ironic that all the survivors also happen to be the ones who don't understand survivorship bias?
Guarantee if you took a picture of that same street today there'd be a lot more than two cars. That probably a played a big role.
I mean…have you seen the size of cars then and now? Or the number of cars then vs now?
Or they call CPS or slowly crush the kid under their F150 extended cab.
Also I knew a skateboarder who got severe brain trauma, so idk wear a fucking helmet because your head didn't evolve to fall on concrete at 20 mph.
Some safety equipment encourages accidents.
For bicycles though, can't really say anything negative about helmets. They save brains.
American Football though? I bet the concussion problem would go away overnight if they took them away. You don't bash your head against someone unless you think you're invulnerable thanks to a helmet anyway.
Flag football was meant to replace tackle football. Rather than stopping the ball being based on takedowns, the players wear a belt with flags on their hips. If an opposing player yanks a flag off the belt, that's where the stop is counted.
Oh, but nooooo, it's not manly and powerful and warrior-like enough. So it never really got popular outside of high school gym class.
I just remembered this old lady, generation not important because it's her attitude that's old, complaining about people walking along the bike path listening to music. She was probably whining to me about me honestly. So the next week I listened to expedition 33 music on my bike because it's amazing music. I have heard that music coming out of her house and not one complaint about people listening to music on the bike path since, the old bat. Show her what music is.
Wait
Are you listening to music on speaker in public?
Because if so, she is not an old bat, your are just a (presumably) young brat.
Get some headphones mate
headphones on a bicycle are a great way to die, but it's nice you value quiet over other people's lives
You can get open headphones, you can get headphones with ambience passthrough, you could just put in one earbud. Or hear me out. You can just not listen to music.
But thanks for proving the point of you beeing an entitled brat.
SOMEONE VIOLATED MY NOISE EARS FOR HALF A SECOND WHAT AN ENTITLED BRAT
i am entitled to silence at all times
wait, one of these things is different.
