So I got my
helmet ears yesterday. As I was stopped at a stoplight today on the way to work, some cruiser dude on a Harley pulled up next to me. I turned and waved, and he said to me: "You don't take motorcycling seriously enough!"
I asked: "Do you ride in the rain?" His response: "Huh?"
I figured maybe he couldn't hear me over the huge rumbling of his engine and through my full-face helm. Or maybe he was just deaf from riding on highways without wearing earplugs. So I asked again: "DO YOU RIDE IN THE RAIN?" His response, looking bewildered: "Of course not."
"THEN YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND."
The light changed, and I just rode off, tail flapping in the wind.
