Kids Ask Stupid Questions
April 12th, 2008, 02:37 pm
Today while riding my bike.
Kid 1: Is that a GT? (understandable question since it’s hard to read the bright blue words on the bright green frame)
Me: It’s a Hoffman
Kid 2: Can you do any tricks? (they always ask this question)
Me: No (As annoyed sounding as I could)
Kids always ask if you can do any tricks. Just because I’m riding a BMX bike doesn’t mean I can do tricks. Especially right there for you to watch.
- I haven’t BMX since before I was 16. I was never good then and I’m definitely not good now.
- I was never good at flat land tricks (tricks that you do on flat ground. No ramps, jumps, or anything. Just you and the bike).
- When I was riding it was mostly dirt.
- I want to get back into it but I need to find somewhere to ride and I don’t have the time so I do what I can.
These two kids are ones that are constantly kicking soccer balls into the side of my apartment. Even if I was good I wouldn’t want to be nice to them. I can’t stand them. My cat hides in the bathroom all afternoon because of them.
Sigh. I’m in a bad mood.
