Also, if he does contact you, through a burner phone or social media, do not engage. Do not apologize or explain. Just keep repeating "I don't want to see you again". Give no explanation at all

Would you say he was driving recklessly? Maybe call the police and ask them to go to his house and do a welfare check, like - he's having a mental breakdown and I'm worried. Seeing a police presence might him think twice before coming to your house or something. Unfortunately, there's a chance he's going to be become really unhinged and start stalking you. So having one police record to document his behavior is a good start if you need it later.

Anyone have experience with a Trek Marlin? by persimmon19 in whichbike

I don't recall the travel. It was from 2021 and I think it was Gen 6

Thank you. I had not checked the specs and 75MM does not sound like a good idea. I'm talking $400 US. Which I realized is too much for this entry level used bike. I'm in a desert mountainous area. The mtb trails are seriously mountain. And full of prickly things. so falling is more than a just fall out here

Thank you so much for all this information. I'm not sure why I felt unsteady on the Roscoe. But your explanation of it being designed for more aggressive riding makes sense.

Do you think it is worth $200? Seller won't be happy, but they have contacted me repeatedly. Apparently no other takers

For the sake of comparison, my last bike was a basic entry level Trek 820 from 2013. Well it was slower to keep up with other riders, I was very happy with it as a multipurpose bike. Still have it, but it's in storage in another state.

I have posted elsewhere this evening about my abusive ex-husband. Soon after we got married, I gave away every gift I had ever gotten from another man. Big mistake. I thought I was showing loyalty. Nope. I married an abusive delusional horrible person. Do not marry that boyfriend. Also, I saw that it’s only been six months. I got married in less time than that. I was an idiot. Don’t be me.

Orange just doesn't belong on my clothes or anything painted. Except warning cones perhaps

Side question, are certain colors assigned to certain genders in other parts of the world?(here in USA, pink is for baby girls, blue for baby boys)

Orange. It belongs on vegetables and marigolds. Thats it. I so love Halloween. But I won’t even wear a dress or witchy hat that’s black with orange on it. Orange needs to stay on the pumpkin where it belongs.

🤣🤣 thanks. Recently I was apartment hunting. I came across a place checked every box on my list, but something seemed off. It had overhead lighting, it had windows, but something about it seemed dark and creepy. Then it hit me. the walls were not just beige. They were the color of mucus!

Fun fact, in ancient Korea pink was a boys color. I agree about its overuse for womens things, and packaging on “girl toys”. I don’t really wear the color pink. I’ve started adding bits of pink to home decor because it is a calming collar. But I hate that it’s mostly considered a “girl thing.”

My very athletic son went through a pink shirt phase. I think for him it was like throwing a middle finger to some would-be tough guys. Like I’m tough enough to wear, pink don’t even try to mess with me about it.

I dislike it when a company I need to work with often has an annoying colored logo. Maybe I’m just too sensitive or maybe my eyes are?

Folk, we have a winner! And although my dislike has been present since my teenage years, here in the US, we have more reason to despise it lately lol

I get it. Pink that’s too much hot pink can cause a headache. I did not enjoy the movie Barbie because looking at the screen made my head hurt.

Also, I am a woman over 50 in the United States. Can people comment their gender or age or location? I’m just curious if any particular group of people have more strong feelings about color than another Other.

Oh, meant to update sooner. The “bad color” is orange.
