Worst comment yet?

Look on the bright side. Its better than those dead head 'missing
wheel', 'oh you've found you're missing wheel' (I was on my bicycle)
comments I get where I work.

do you have flowing long hair? that confuses the hell out of children.
I've literally made 3-4 year olds cry when i talk. fortunately their
folks found it funny. I'm 6'4 with really long blonde hair, i also have
a fairly deep voice. Children under a certain age often go by hair
length as one of the key factors in determining whether you're a man or
a woman. They've come up to me to hand me tickets(usher at a theatre)
and when i say "thank you" or something, my deep voice confuses them and
a few times they've started to cry. in conclusion, it coulda been worse.

narrow mountain trail when a lady and her kids,one of them about 4 or 5
hiked past.The little kid stared for a minute,and said:"hey mister,you
wanna come with us to my house?"

I assume you're now practising riding in a macho fashion to avoid any
future misunderstandings... 😄

Best comment I've had recently was from a friend out riding with his son
on b*kes. As they passed me practising in my usual spot, they shouted,
"Two wheels good! One wheel bad!"

Very Orwellian. 😎

I'll take that as you don't recognise the word. It's from the English
dialect of the English language. It's a colloquial term for an adult
male human.🙂

I was wearing a helmet. But to answer the question, I have a number 1/2
buzzcut back and sides, and an early 80s-style flat top.

Personally, I think it was because I'm so slim, and I was wearing tight
leggings.

I get this all the time, what with my long hair. I had a load of
builders once who shouted loudly that they wanted to sniff my seat
(eeeew gross). Oh and the guy in the supermarket when I had a small uni
with me who told me that he'd seen a woman with a really really big
wheeled one of those yesterday and described me somewhere where I was on
my commute.

The worst comment I got was last summer. I was sucking wind up a hill,
and falling behind the 2 other Cokers I was riding with. Once I got to
the top I was a good 200 yards behind. That's when the guys working on
their pick-up truck said: "Look there's another one. Lets get your gun
and shoot him."

LOL! That's a great comment, really. They reverse anthropomorphized you
(if there is such a thing) AND wanted to help put you out of your
misery. 🙂

leggings?

...Ah, yes. Not much has changed here in Ye Olde England since Black
Adder times. We've only just got indoor plumbing, decimal money and
eradicated the Plague.

The last American gentleman emulator of the cod-piece style I believe
was the popular singer "Cameo" with the song "Word Up" (mid 80's).
