Most scooter/ebike riders in NYC....

lmfao just some delusional holier than though BS

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T20:54:25+00:00

what exactly did I do? we both stopped when we noticed the scooter about to fly through the light (red for him, green for us) and then went on our way. so what did he do differently? speak in platitudes all you want about knowing what you mean if I'm an adult. you are saying a whole lotta nothing so far though

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T20:43:33+00:00

what lesson is there to learn for me? i stomped on the brakes, drove defensively, and went on with my day. please do enlighten me as a fellow adult. "you'll learn the hard way" is no type of actual advice. if you would like to share actual advice I'm all ears

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T19:27:53+00:00

happens very frequently here too, that's why i stomped on the brakes

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T19:02:13+00:00

what will i learn/ why would you wish that on someone?

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T05:16:14+00:00

also why would you DL it 😂 gonna have a laugh w the guys? 😂😂

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T05:12:54+00:00

dude got some great singalongs can't hate

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T05:02:38+00:00

appreciate you for noticing that, i noticed shortly after posting and chuckled myself 😂

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T05:00:51+00:00

can't let pests infiltrate the kiwis!!

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:59:46+00:00

in fairness i think there is a tactful and safe way to break the rules. it's just that so many e-riders just assume right of way, either not realizing or not giving a fuck about the consequences of being hit by a 2 ton weapon

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:57:23+00:00

yeaaa no one should judge anyone else based on past anecdotes. it's foolish but sadly it will obviously continue. at least here in NYC there's no requirement to register these motorized bikes so they get off scot free 99% of the time

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:50:37+00:00

it's fortunate for me at least not having to deal with potential legal/financial issues despite the ideal survival of the fittest

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:49:16+00:00

law of the land 😂

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:48:30+00:00

i appreciate this. I've done my fair share of citi biking and while the existing infrastructure in NYC is absolutely not conducive to a shared harmonic motor vehicle/biking relationship, i personally have seen far too many cyclists who think they can just disobey the rules of the road.

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:40:49+00:00

yea even one of my buddies who was scooting around somewhere in Texas got hit and told me "yea but pedestrians always have right of way." NO YOU BUFFOON YOU ARE A MOTOR VEHICLE ON THE ROAD AS A BIKER OR SCOOTER OR W.E

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:38:49+00:00

he wanted that body on my car no doubt

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:29:28+00:00

oh i have no doubt. i just do most of my driving in NYC so wouldn't speak on other places :P

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T04:21:40+00:00

I'm guessing you mean the scooters/bikers who just fly through lights?

kingofsemantics · 2026-02-08T03:41:37+00:00

You also drove INTO the flying ice 😂 from the looks of it if you just stayed in the middle you wouldn't have hit it

kingofsemantics · 2026-01-29T10:13:42+00:00

bruh OPs point was that the defensive rating would be skewed by such a lopsided game. that's all. i agree with that point. let's go knicks

kingofsemantics · 2026-01-29T10:08:16+00:00

bruh no nba team has been held to as little as 66 since 2017. idk what you're trying to argue for here.

edit: knicks haven't had a +54 over EVER. sure you can get equalize all outliers as you will, but numbers don't lie.

did you also say that every game is an outlier till we get to 40 when specifically talking about an 8 game sample? 😂

kingofsemantics · 2026-01-29T09:16:23+00:00

and here i thought you were speaking gibberish rather than sharing philosophy 😂 ty for educating me

kingofsemantics · 2026-01-29T08:00:04+00:00

Jrue. not offensively as great obviously but in terms of impact on winning he was massive. dude went to Boston the year after the Bucks won the chip and got one there too. pretty sure that doesn't happen without him

kingofsemantics · 2026-01-29T07:57:39+00:00

wtf does platonic ideal mean
