I mean, he uses a cell phone holster clipped to his pocket ffs. I'm 95% sure he took the vaccine. I'd be 100%, but you can see he isn't wearing socks with birkenstocks, so there's a very slim chance he isn't a full blown moron.
This is hilarious on the surface. I definitely agree we are in clown world. I do not wear a mask unless someone directly asks me to. Even then, I weigh the situation. Being a motorcyclist who has ridden a Harley without a helmet in Kuai, Hawaii on my honeymoon, two possible logical reasons for this clown having a mask on are: prevent eating of bugs on inhale (this is a real world issue for motorcyclist without face coverings) or too lazy to take it off from somewhere it was unavoidable.
I could see the masks/garters becoming pretty standard faire for motocyclists without helmets. Saw it before and saw it after but the point and laugh brigade is having fun so whateves.
Edit to add:
Who would've thought you guys were such a bunch of safety faggots?!
You guys would really lose your shit if you saw me base jump. I throw double gainers off of buildings, in the dark, and still don't wear a helmet. Which, by the way, also has zero effect on your life so save your sanctimonious holier than thou safety speech.
Agreed. When I was a teen, I bought myself a motorcycle that was classified as a super-bike. I can tell you that once you hit I think about 160mph, and not wearing a helmet, you go deaf because of how fast the wind is moving over your ears. It gets louder and louder and louder then it goes pretty much silent. I also had a close friend who crashed and looking at the damage on their helmet, they would have been dead had they not been wearing one.
I do not do shit like that anymore because I now realize I am not invicible and I value my life, but what the fuck do I care if someone does not wear their helmet on a motorcycle? It is their choice.
I don't ride motorcycles but I heard that you should always dress for the slide, not the ride. Plus, I've been hit with bugs when riding a bicycle at 25mph, and that stung. Can't imagine a bee or something at 70mph on exposed skin.
I wear a helmet, full coverage. My Goldwing, at 125mph, would go even faster but I realized hitting the deck at such speeds likely wouldnât be survivable. I donât do that anymore...
I was never asking for permission lol ofc I am welcome to my opinions. Can not wear a helmet, can use poor gun safety, can do drugs and drink excessive amounts of alcohol is all your choice but I don't really think stupidity is anything to be proud of.
Are you scared to ride a motorcycle?! Your boyfriend afraid you'll get too loose?
Do you need permission? Maybe only in a state with helmet laws, would that be safer?
Would you prefer all of your life was controlled? Don't forget your seatbelt, FAGGOT.
No...
Seriously bro!
Are we not on the same side? You really want to deride a fellow pede's opinion because it's different than your's? When my opinion of this matter in no way shape or form affects your life or any outcome of it?
Seems a bit totalitarian if you ask me.
But don't worry, I have a different opinion than you on an insignificant matter so we should argue for some reason... lefty logic for the win I guess.
I am an idiot. I respect your opinion.
I will not stop being myself. Fuck anyone that is too weak to accept that, and especially those that feel the need to argue my personal decision.
See that's just it... Clearly you girls do care. And feel the need to espouse upon your superiority by claiming anyone that takes a legal risk that you aren't comfortable with is an idiot or that you're somehow better because you play it safe.
Easy there Karens, plenty of more important shit in this world to get your panties in a bunch about.
Fuck off faggot you being a dumbass has nothing to do with masks. That's why you're being downvoted, not because we give a fuck if some retard wants to kill himself.
If someone thinks you're taking unreasonable risks and concludes that you're an idiot, it doesn't follow that they "care". I think you're an idiot because you're missing most of the point about the thread and inserting yourself.
I also think you're an idiot because you're clearly equating your willingness to take risks with masculinity. That's common with young men before the pre-frontal cortex has caught up with the limbic system in terms of brain development.
In any case, though, I don't care what you do, as long as I don't have to pay for it. So, if you do have a serious accident during your extreeeeeeme activities, do the rest of us a solid and make it fatal so no one is sharing the costs of your decisions.
I have no dog in this hunt, but I would point out that tests have shown that higher testosterone levels actually do result in more risk taking. Not that higher testosterone levels necessarily equates to masculinity, but there it is.
There are a lot of lurking variables in that correlation, though. The early growth ofkthr limbic system and the later growth of the pre-frontal cortex is well observed.
"costs of your decisions" You are always going to share in the cost in the society you live in. GET OVER IT! You share the cost for the drug addict, the guy who gets drunk, the guy who eats a donut etc: Hell, I pay for you to eat that crap they feed you at the grocery store called processed food that gets you sick, gives you high blood pressure, diabetes. It is called life and nothing you can do to change it. Your mentality is woe to everyone except you. Do you think the way you live your life does not expose anyone to additional costs? Go live in that delusion.........
It would appear that we have some Bernie bros on the site, so I will explain: Liberty means the freedom to do as you choose, but it also means the freedom to remain untethered to other people's choices. That is to say that personal freedom must necessarily come with personal responsibility.
Let's pretend I'm the person you describe: I make terrible decisions with my health, eating processed garbage and remaining inactive until my decisions lead to obesity and possibly Type II diabetes mellitus. You seem at home with everyone else paying millions of dollars toward my healthcare throughout my life. Everyone else should "get over it" and just pay for my stupidity?
I disagree. I also work in healthcare. Modifiable behaviors create enormous healthcare costs. I believe that people who make better decisions in their lives shouldn't be getting the bill for idiots.
I also believe that wiser people should not be paying off the loans for idiots who amass titanic amounts of debt for Feminist Literature degrees. Should I "get over it" for that, too.?
There are too many people who consider themselves to be freedom-loving who still want other people to hold the safety net under them. I submit that people who do risky, irresponsible, and inane things should hear the costs and consequences of their choices, not the smarter people who avoid those mistakes.
We should always want a better society to live in. However, in reality, the actions of an individual can be either good or evil, depending on the person and what values dominate in them. People like to pontificate on how things should be. Advice is given as though we start with a blank slate and can just make or remake society as we please. That flies in the face of reality and thousands of years of human history.
Christians feel that since they have faith they should somehow be insulated from failure, disappointment, and loss. Those no having faith share the same emotion that they should be insulated as well. Our success or failures look back at us in the mirror each and every day we gaze into one.
If I fail it is my issue and no one elseâs. Should have studied more, worked harder and played less, and been less lazy. Even with that sometimes you fall off a house and end up in a wheelchair. The attitude I cannot let the wheelchair be my prison and must use my strength of character to free myself.
I canât worry about what you are doing or not doing unless you are over robbing my home. I canât rely on you to do what is right or I will spend all of my time worrying about you instead of doing what I need to do. A fair and clear understanding of individualism is much needed nowadays. Contrary to naysayers it is not being selfish to first take care of yourself so you can take care of others.
You're right, of course. I always find it amusing when others are called idiots for taking recreational risks. How easy that is when every aspect of their lives aren't open to scrutiny lol.
I don't ride a bike so I have no dog in this fight. But my cousin the paramedic has responded to several motorcycle crashes. He says the only thing that a helmet does is hold the skull pieces in one place so they don't have to search for them.
I went skiing over this last winter and what surprised me the most is so many were wearing masks, and few were wearing scarfs, when in past years everyone wore a scarf.
Like, the fuck? Are you fools not freezing by wearing a paper thin mask over a scarf, going down a mountain at high speed in freezing temperatures?
To be fair, when itâs cold out the mask keeps your nose warm and the humidity of your breath is soothing on your airway if it is sensitive to dry cold.
Itâs like a more convenient scarf or ski mask. Much like a scarf or ski mask, it wonât do shit about China virus. But damn if it isnât cozy at 10 degrees.
You should have seen how loud my old GSXR exhaust was if you think loud pipes are exclusive to a Harley. Friends would say they could hear me coming a mile away. Had a friend who had a brother that was legally deaf, even he took two steps back when I revved the thing in front of him.
Ha. This is exactly what a Gixxer bro would brag about.
Anyway, my comment was in reference to the fact that every Harley bro with bare arms, no helmet, no gloves, and lugging their enormous wife around on the back, seems to be running straight pipes around here. As a rider with somewhat loud pipes myself, I prefer a good note to sheer volume, and I would like to be able to hear past the age of 30
Iâve used it as an indent Iâve to shop at small local hardware and grocery stores. Itâs only once in a blue mine I had to go to a big store for things other ones didnât carry.
I ride a fast sport bike full time. I got rid of my car. I love motorcycles!
That being said, I wouldn't ride without a helmet (or other gear - ATGATT). If you crack your head on the pavement, which is likely if you go down, you're going to either die or vegetable yourself. I'm not going to put my wife in a bad position to have to care for a vegetable, or have to find a crematorium before my time is really up. I love my great wife and would not do that to her. She's graciously given me her blessing to ride. It's up to me to ensure that she doesn't regret it.
came off my Honda CBR900RR many years ago on a bitumen road and skidded to a head stop into a concrete kerb side gutter ....i lost a lot of skin and compound fractured my my left elbow and knee both which got reconstructed at hospital but the biggest thing which saved my life was my helmet. My head slammed the gutter so hard it caved in the helmet and made a very visible deep V indentation. Without the helmet it would have split my head open like a watermelon and i'd be dead right now. The bones all healed and i'm just as strong as i have ever been but rehab took several years for me to get back to strength. I rode for a little while more after that accident then sold the bike and haven't owned one since and i don't plan on owning one again as i know feel some 20 years later that I'm no where near as mentally agile and reflex ready as i was and i also want to eventually see grand kids.
You are a very smart and responsible man and your family will be grateful if anything should ever happen on that bike. I don't even want to get in the conversation above, but I agree people that don't wear gear and a helmet are idiots. Though, everyone has a right to be an idiot and I can have an opinion. My rule was always, cover the skin you want to keep and protect your melon and face.
I was Tboned by a car darting out of his driveway as I passed 7 years ago. Crushed my leg and launched me and slid a good distance. Was only going 35mph. Face and skull saved. Leather jacket did its job. Thick jeans did to, sans a good road rash spot on my hip like i was touched by a cheese grater. Leg was my only true injury. And it was fucked. 11 surgeries to salvage. You name it, they did it. Skin, arteries, bones, all fucked. Internal and external hardware, bone and skin grafts, vascular bypass, everything. Had enough and had it chopped off. Plus 2 revisions and major infections for a total of 14 surgeries. I'm fortune. If I wasn't wearing a helmet and gear, I'd be dead or one ugly fucker. I have a fake leg below the knee, but I still get to be here to be dad.
People think you need to get taken out on a freeway by some braindead minivanner for it to be a serious M/C collision. Many motorcycle collisions are at low speed like simply turning on a road and hitting some gravel that washes out the tires. It happens so fast and that fall from just a few feet off the ground is enough to crack your melon wide open.
I had a M/C accident in heavy rain where my rear wheel started fishtailing back and forth. I wasn't going very fast, maybe 20-30, but the bike high-sided and sent me sailing. When I landed, my helmet cracked the pavement and blew it apart. I was a little shaken up, but was OK. This happened to my uncle many years earlier and it killed him. Not a mark on the rest of his body, but the head impact was fatal.
And those cabin filters generally have better filtration levels than the best surgical masks. In fact any decent ones will filter out a virus like the kung flu.
Before the election I assumed it was some sort of fear campaign similar to wearing a Biden shirt. But seeing this 4+ months after the election, obviously that's not the case.
It shows you how many stupid people there are, and that there are A LOT of mentally ill people. Think of how many people claim to have an âanxiety disorderâ and take meds â thatâs who these people are.
BOY OH BOY A WHOLE LOT OF THE LAST TWO GENERATIONS FLUNKED 9TH GRADE GENERAL SCIENC OR 10TH GRADE BIO, WHAT EVER. VIRSUS,
SCIENCE CLASS NOW IN SESSION:---
So were they ever alive? Most biologists say no. Viruses are not made out of cells, they can't keep themselves in a stable state, they don't grow, and they can't make their own energy. Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms.
âThe virus cannot reproduce itself outside the host because it lacks the complicated machinery that a [host] cell possesses.â The host's cellular machinery allows viruses to produce RNA from their DNA (a process calledtranscription) and to build proteins based on the instructions encoded in their RNA
Strictly speaking, viruses can't die, for the simple reason that they aren't alive in the first place. Although they contain genetic instructions in the form of DNA (or the related molecule, RNA), viruses can't thrive independently. Instead, they must invade a host organism and hijack its genetic instructions.
SO WHERE IS THE NEAREST VIRUS TO THE DUDE ON THE CYCLE?
OH, I DUNO, MAYEB ALTOONA!
In Canada you not only have to wear a helmet but you also have to wear the ridiculous leather jacket and pants, a big orange flag, training wheels and of course don't forget to wear a mask inside the helmet.
in case you get into a car accident, you don't want to infect the wambulance drivers
I had my fun on a bike when I was younger but stopped before I (or someone else) killed me. Helmets weren't required then, and with no face shield you were "in the wind", and breezing. So nice ! Then one day when I was doing about 70 I saw a small dot coming out of nowhere. Didn't even have time to duck and a big fat one ounce June bug hit me between the eyes. I saw stars, and almost blacked out. Ya, bikes are fun, but if they don't kill you, or cripple you sooner or later your lucky.
I've seen people ride motorcycles while wearing neck gators or handkerchiefs my whole life. Figure it keeps bugs out of your teeth. Never seen one with a Chinese Virus Mask that loops around the ears though.
LOL, This poser is not even on a Harley. Notice the thick shaft drive tunnel to the left of his bike purse...I mean saddle bag. No belt drive and shaft driven = Japanese bike.
This makes him a double poser, and double stupid for wearing a mask and not a helmet. And BTW, I'm against helmet laws. people have the right to be stupid.
I ride a lot of mtb. EVERYONE wears helmets, many full face. NO ONE wears masks.
Dammit I love the mtb/downhill scene. About the only sane people left, who haven't been turned into faggots/zombies by their C02 rebreathing apparatus.
I live in a scenic rural area about an hour outside two major metro areas. We get many bicyclist groups. This past weekend was the first semi-warm riding time since winter started. Out where you look at cows and pasture and woods, a group came riding by, all colorful in their normal skin-tights. EVERYONE was wearing a mask. OUTSIDE! MORE THAN 6 FEET APART! DOING CARDIO!
But if he dies in a motorcycle crash his death will be from COVID.
But if it's from the vaccine, then it's because he didn't wear his helmet.
Any way he goes...good riddance.
I mean, he uses a cell phone holster clipped to his pocket ffs. I'm 95% sure he took the vaccine. I'd be 100%, but you can see he isn't wearing socks with birkenstocks, so there's a very slim chance he isn't a full blown moron.
He's probably got a hole in the back of the jeans and a butt plug welded to the seat of his motorcycle
Well at least his chances of not falling and dying of Covid are now lower. Butt plugs for all! - some czar of health, probably
You win the internet for today.
HAAAAAA
This is hilarious on the surface. I definitely agree we are in clown world. I do not wear a mask unless someone directly asks me to. Even then, I weigh the situation.

I could see the masks/garters becoming pretty standard faire for motocyclists without helmets. Saw it before and saw it after but the point and laugh brigade is having fun so whateves.
lol you know that's what they will say.
At least no bugs in the teeth, so......
My body my choice bigot
Edit to add: Who would've thought you guys were such a bunch of safety faggots?!
You guys would really lose your shit if you saw me base jump. I throw double gainers off of buildings, in the dark, and still don't wear a helmet. Which, by the way, also has zero effect on your life so save your sanctimonious holier than thou safety speech.
Eat my dick bitches
Youâre allowed to be an idiot if you so please.
Agreed. When I was a teen, I bought myself a motorcycle that was classified as a super-bike. I can tell you that once you hit I think about 160mph, and not wearing a helmet, you go deaf because of how fast the wind is moving over your ears. It gets louder and louder and louder then it goes pretty much silent. I also had a close friend who crashed and looking at the damage on their helmet, they would have been dead had they not been wearing one.
I do not do shit like that anymore because I now realize I am not invicible and I value my life, but what the fuck do I care if someone does not wear their helmet on a motorcycle? It is their choice.
I don't ride motorcycles but I heard that you should always dress for the slide, not the ride. Plus, I've been hit with bugs when riding a bicycle at 25mph, and that stung. Can't imagine a bee or something at 70mph on exposed skin.
I wear a helmet, full coverage. My Goldwing, at 125mph, would go even faster but I realized hitting the deck at such speeds likely wouldnât be survivable. I donât do that anymore...
As someone who smacked head on into 2 cars flipping into my lane at 55mph.
I'm glad I had a helmet on.
Yes I am, and you're allowed to think I'm an idiot!
Thank you for understanding. We are all allowed to do any fucking thing we please so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. Weird how life works :-)
Nobody said it wasn't your choice to be a dumb fuck
Nope. And nobody said you weren't welcome to your opinion. Cheers đť
I was never asking for permission lol ofc I am welcome to my opinions. Can not wear a helmet, can use poor gun safety, can do drugs and drink excessive amounts of alcohol is all your choice but I don't really think stupidity is anything to be proud of.
And like I've said, your opinion is just as valid as mine.
Although, I'm not the one insulting folks I don't agree w without instigation.
Being a fucking faggot isn't necessarily something to be proud of either...
Who the fuck you calling a faggot, faggot. You the faggot who strattles his motorcycle like a fucking bitch. Spread them cheeks boy.
Are you scared to ride a motorcycle?! Your boyfriend afraid you'll get too loose?
Do you need permission? Maybe only in a state with helmet laws, would that be safer?
Would you prefer all of your life was controlled? Don't forget your seatbelt, FAGGOT.

The point was about how stupid this guy is, and now you've made it about how stupid you are. Great Uno reversal.
By the way, no one cares if you want to base jump, especially if we don't have to pay for the consequences.
See that's just it... Clearly you girls do care. And feel the need to espouse upon your superiority by claiming anyone that takes a legal risk that you aren't comfortable with is an idiot or that you're somehow better because you play it safe.

Bro why take it like itâs a personal attack, nobody even knew you existed here until you showed your panties were in a bunch.
Based off the obvious statistics of motorcycle accidents and fatalities, anyone who rides a motorcycle without a helmet is an idiot. Plain. Simple.
Do you wear you mask for Xi Biden when you're base jumping? So the other people in the air don't get sick?
Are you actually retarded, or do you just play one online?
Oh snap. You do wear a mask when you're alone.
Do you wear a mask when you take a shower so the Covid from the pipes doesn't leak out onto you?
I wear a mask while your wife eats my asshole, does that count?
"espouse upon your superiority..." That's some sophisticated grammar that really confirms your intellectual skills.
It's called vocabulary. Read a book retard...
You're right, of course. I always find it amusing when others are called idiots for taking recreational risks. How easy that is when every aspect of their lives aren't open to scrutiny lol.
Gary Busey
Plus he's wearing a mask.
Twice proven the idiot.
100%. I mean free country...do w/e the fuck you want....idiot.
I don't ride a bike so I have no dog in this fight. But my cousin the paramedic has responded to several motorcycle crashes. He says the only thing that a helmet does is hold the skull pieces in one place so they don't have to search for them.
Spectators are often unaware of the risks taken by those who enjoy life to the fullest.
shouldn't they be free to be an idiot?
Yes, when did they suggest otherwise?
Does being an idiot give you a free pass to never be called an idiot? no.
Free speech...but consequences. Right libtards?
Super faggot spotted đ
I saw a guy wearing a surgical mask blowing a foot of snow...
It was the single stupidest thing I have ever seen
I went skiing over this last winter and what surprised me the most is so many were wearing masks, and few were wearing scarfs, when in past years everyone wore a scarf.
Like, the fuck? Are you fools not freezing by wearing a paper thin mask over a scarf, going down a mountain at high speed in freezing temperatures?
Ya this is how I felt. Like just think for a second bro
To be fair, when itâs cold out the mask keeps your nose warm and the humidity of your breath is soothing on your airway if it is sensitive to dry cold.
Itâs like a more convenient scarf or ski mask. Much like a scarf or ski mask, it wonât do shit about China virus. But damn if it isnât cozy at 10 degrees.
Bro people in the lake effect snow area of MI have winter face masks. This guy was wearing a surgical mask which covers and insulates the least.
People wearing skimasks snowblowing is perfectly normal. I feel he was afraid of someone walking by as he snowblowed
I wore a mask when I was snowblowing, no because of the rona monster but the wind was blowing hard and didn't have a scarf ...
So yeah
It wasn't windy the day I saw him doing it
$5 bucks says he's wearing a condom too.
Just incase đ
Loud pipes save lives. Masks don't.
Harley bro spotted
You should have seen how loud my old GSXR exhaust was if you think loud pipes are exclusive to a Harley. Friends would say they could hear me coming a mile away. Had a friend who had a brother that was legally deaf, even he took two steps back when I revved the thing in front of him.

Hypersquid detected.
Sound, How Does it Work?
Technically wearing a mask while riding is not a bad idea. Bugs are a bitch. But I get your point
It IS a good idea. Combined with a helmet and some leather, he'd be much safer.
I wear masks all the time - because I am a carpenter and dry-waller - not because of MUH COVID.
Never know when someone coughed in the middle of the road. Safety first!!!
Wanna know what scares me? I see police officers riding around in their squad cars quite often with masks on....alone...
I could see this being done out of habit. Frequent stops to approach the public would make it easy to forget and jump back in your car.
At the height of the lockdown, Iâd do that when leaving a big box store even though I made fun of people driving in cars with masks.
Also they'd probably get reprimanded if some Karen reported them being maskless. It's bullshit, but not really worth losing your paycheck over.
Maybe. For you personally though, there's an easy fix. DON'T wear the mask at all. Especially in big box stores.
Iâve used it as an indent Iâve to shop at small local hardware and grocery stores. Itâs only once in a blue mine I had to go to a big store for things other ones didnât carry.
Itâs been a healthy reminder to change habits
Probably regulations. Gotta do what the boss wants.

I rode for a little while more after that accident then sold the bike and haven't owned one since and i don't plan on owning one again as i know feel some 20 years later that I'm no where near as mentally agile and reflex ready as i was and i also want to eventually see grand kids.
You are a very smart and responsible man and your family will be grateful if anything should ever happen on that bike. I don't even want to get in the conversation above, but I agree people that don't wear gear and a helmet are idiots. Though, everyone has a right to be an idiot and I can have an opinion. My rule was always, cover the skin you want to keep and protect your melon and face.
I was Tboned by a car darting out of his driveway as I passed 7 years ago. Crushed my leg and launched me and slid a good distance. Was only going 35mph. Face and skull saved. Leather jacket did its job. Thick jeans did to, sans a good road rash spot on my hip like i was touched by a cheese grater. Leg was my only true injury. And it was fucked. 11 surgeries to salvage. You name it, they did it. Skin, arteries, bones, all fucked. Internal and external hardware, bone and skin grafts, vascular bypass, everything. Had enough and had it chopped off. Plus 2 revisions and major infections for a total of 14 surgeries. I'm fortune. If I wasn't wearing a helmet and gear, I'd be dead or one ugly fucker. I have a fake leg below the knee, but I still get to be here to be dad.
People think you need to get taken out on a freeway by some braindead minivanner for it to be a serious M/C collision. Many motorcycle collisions are at low speed like simply turning on a road and hitting some gravel that washes out the tires. It happens so fast and that fall from just a few feet off the ground is enough to crack your melon wide open.
I had a M/C accident in heavy rain where my rear wheel started fishtailing back and forth. I wasn't going very fast, maybe 20-30, but the bike high-sided and sent me sailing. When I landed, my helmet cracked the pavement and blew it apart. I was a little shaken up, but was OK. This happened to my uncle many years earlier and it killed him. Not a mark on the rest of his body, but the head impact was fatal.
eh, tbf I hate eating bugs when I ride. It's about that season for them, too.
Iâve wore them in the cold while working outside just to keep part of my face warm
Fair enough, and a legit reason if you're in a cold state. Bonus points for a nice meme printed on them.
Free protein, brah!
Yep, I know brah, but they taste like shit.
Also, masks in cars. You know, cars have these things called air filters, right?
masks in cars is silly, but I believe the air filters are for the engines, not the passengers.
Most cars have cabin air filters. The air inside your car is definitely clean as long as you keep that cabin filter replaced.
Huh, TIL, thanks.
And those cabin filters generally have better filtration levels than the best surgical masks. In fact any decent ones will filter out a virus like the kung flu.
let me guess who he voted for.....
And no gloves. Gloves are seriously underrated. Backpacks too.
I agree entirely. This dude obviously masturbates a lot. He should protect his monkey mitts.
What a fucking idiot. The helmet will seriously save his life. The mask? Nope. No evidence masks prevent people from getting sick.
Nature always finds a way to eliminate the weakest of the herd. Let life find its way. đ
I see husbands and wives walking alone wearing masks. Sometimes I see women and men alone walking outside with masks. It makes zero sense.
I see the same everyday. Makes me wonder do they wear them inside their house too? In the shower? In bed? These people are insane
Before the election I assumed it was some sort of fear campaign similar to wearing a Biden shirt. But seeing this 4+ months after the election, obviously that's not the case.
It shows you how many stupid people there are, and that there are A LOT of mentally ill people. Think of how many people claim to have an âanxiety disorderâ and take meds â thatâs who these people are.
Blahaha..... is a nice bike tho!! <3 MAGA2021
Possibly avoiding dust and gas fumes đ
I wear a mask when mowing my lawn because I have extreme pollen allergies. I've been doing it for 40 years but fuck Chy-nah too.
One summer I had some serious pollen allergy going on so I wore a mask.
Mine is getting worse as I get older.
That's what neck gaiters and bandanas are for, not Karen masks.
No... he's just a common or garden retard!
BOY OH BOY A WHOLE LOT OF THE LAST TWO GENERATIONS FLUNKED 9TH GRADE GENERAL SCIENC OR 10TH GRADE BIO, WHAT EVER. VIRSUS,
SCIENCE CLASS NOW IN SESSION:---
So were they ever alive? Most biologists say no. Viruses are not made out of cells, they can't keep themselves in a stable state, they don't grow, and they can't make their own energy. Even though they definitely replicate and adapt to their environment, viruses are more like androids than real living organisms.
âThe virus cannot reproduce itself outside the host because it lacks the complicated machinery that a [host] cell possesses.â The host's cellular machinery allows viruses to produce RNA from their DNA (a process calledtranscription) and to build proteins based on the instructions encoded in their RNA
Strictly speaking, viruses can't die, for the simple reason that they aren't alive in the first place. Although they contain genetic instructions in the form of DNA (or the related molecule, RNA), viruses can't thrive independently. Instead, they must invade a host organism and hijack its genetic instructions.
SO WHERE IS THE NEAREST VIRUS TO THE DUDE ON THE CYCLE? OH, I DUNO, MAYEB ALTOONA!
COME ON PEOPLE!
This is how gay bikers identify each other. Heâs got the leather harness and ball gag in his saddlebag.
I think I see his tampon string.
If he wears a helmet people can't see the mask. If they can't see the mask, how will he be able to virtue signal to them?
Tell me youâre a libtard without telling me youâre a libtard.
Nothing left to protect inside his brain-box but some tapioca and tofu.
He is a dumb ass
#TOPTIERFAGGOT
He doesn't want to swallow bugs... hahahah
That actually makes some sense haha
Dude is free to not wear a helmet while wearing a mask. I am free to laugh at him.
understand, that motorcycle does not belong to him, it is his boyfriend's motorcycle
https://youtu.be/xGyKBFCd_u4?t=84
I'd pay to watch him get beat up by real bikers ;-)
In Canada you not only have to wear a helmet but you also have to wear the ridiculous leather jacket and pants, a big orange flag, training wheels and of course don't forget to wear a mask inside the helmet.
in case you get into a car accident, you don't want to infect the wambulance drivers
Nah dude thatâs Skinny Bane
I had my fun on a bike when I was younger but stopped before I (or someone else) killed me. Helmets weren't required then, and with no face shield you were "in the wind", and breezing. So nice ! Then one day when I was doing about 70 I saw a small dot coming out of nowhere. Didn't even have time to duck and a big fat one ounce June bug hit me between the eyes. I saw stars, and almost blacked out. Ya, bikes are fun, but if they don't kill you, or cripple you sooner or later your lucky.
Helmet Laws Suck!
Fucking twat.
This is actually peak clown world. What a ducking moron.
I've seen people ride motorcycles while wearing neck gators or handkerchiefs my whole life. Figure it keeps bugs out of your teeth. Never seen one with a Chinese Virus Mask that loops around the ears though.
Man is more afraid of microscopic particles with zero chance of infecting him outside than he is of a head concussion and actual death. Lol
bwahahahhaahahahhahahhaha
Good. Let him bust his skull open on the pavement. Less idiots.
This is one of those meme templates that comes once in every 5 years. Literal proof of how stupid these people are.
I might do it to not inhale a bug....
LOL, This poser is not even on a Harley. Notice the thick shaft drive tunnel to the left of his bike purse...I mean saddle bag. No belt drive and shaft driven = Japanese bike.
This makes him a double poser, and double stupid for wearing a mask and not a helmet. And BTW, I'm against helmet laws. people have the right to be stupid.
looks like a Suzuki boulevard M50 from ~2006
liberals are retarded
Squid
That's NOT A MASK. It's a fly-guard for those new bikers who can't stop smiling.
I ride a lot of mtb. EVERYONE wears helmets, many full face. NO ONE wears masks.
Dammit I love the mtb/downhill scene. About the only sane people left, who haven't been turned into faggots/zombies by their C02 rebreathing apparatus.
I live in a scenic rural area about an hour outside two major metro areas. We get many bicyclist groups. This past weekend was the first semi-warm riding time since winter started. Out where you look at cows and pasture and woods, a group came riding by, all colorful in their normal skin-tights. EVERYONE was wearing a mask. OUTSIDE! MORE THAN 6 FEET APART! DOING CARDIO!
I get the spandex crew too. No masks from what I've seen, but they are still annoying.
