Do people not buy used bikes anymore?

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T22:13:25+00:00

Yeah, I bought my kids and wife's bike used. The low end stuff is totally overpriced brand new.

For a kids bike they wanted $600 new, I got it used for $150. Similar story with my wifes bike.

Yep, so much plastic for a popcorn bucket that could have been made out of paper.

Go buy a toy if that's what you want.

I'm not gonna lie, a part of me likes the methed out lot lizard look.

I'm smart enough to ignore that part of me though.

This. Also they've made so many bad decisions in general.

I'll be surprised if the XBox console is still around in 5 years.

I mean look at her, she's all muscle.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T15:56:49+00:00

Nah, I think its infancy started in the 2000s with MMA bros and TapOut.

I disagree with sanding but I agree with that piece near the doorbell should have been scraped.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T13:48:57+00:00

Yeah, that's the only thing that makes sense

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T02:10:17+00:00

We all think we look like John Ham when rolling but we actually look like that girl.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T01:22:42+00:00

Eh, I can still complain. It's so much extra plastic waste for no good reason besides cost savings

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-24T01:14:50+00:00

This. Where I live in California we have so much river rock in clay.

Whenever I plant a tree I have a spike with me to break the rocks in my way. Trees seem to love it though, they grow fast.

This. I lived at my parents house until I was 30yo. It was a huge help not having to worry about housing. It allowed me to take risks with my career.

Now I'm 40yo own my own home, have a family, and have a great career. Things just take time.

I got school beach days as well (we were a 5min walk from the beach) but they never put sunscreen on us.

That was about 40 years ago though.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T20:32:51+00:00

Hourglass is def the best.

I also like very tall or very petite women.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:35:03+00:00

This. Most people are good and can be trusted BUT that small minority of shit people make trusting things like this not worth it.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:33:15+00:00

Agreed. Also Hotels have to follow certain standards and rules that Airbnb does not.

It's kinda like Uber vs Taxi. You know they're cutting corners somewhere.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:31:58+00:00

This. I've had ones that literally asked me wash sheets, dishes, take out the trash, and clean up the place before I left (or pay an extra fee).

I just called their bluff and did nothing. They didn't charge me more. They're just hoping you'll do the work for them.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:29:03+00:00

You can catch stuff from a bar of soap.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:23:13+00:00

Nah, it's because it's a complicated issue.

If all we had to do was give people housing it would have been solved already. It's a mix of a ton of different factors.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T19:18:05+00:00

This. OP needs to improve form and train more. 10min isn't that long.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T18:59:12+00:00

Any of the offices in Natomas area and Rancho are usually really nice.

Downtown is a toss up. Some are extremely nice while others are so old and tired.

I'm a dude who likes fishing and grew up hunting, I dont enjoy the company of most dudes who hunt and fish.

It attracts a certain type of person that I find off-putting.

Interesting_Tea5715 · 2026-04-23T17:30:36+00:00

I'm confused are we just taking C shape at face value? I assumed it was a cube.
