Bet the geek'd scooter still won't help the builders get any girls.

I'm hoping they upgraded the standard electrical systems found in most scooters. Those high tech gadgets wouldn't survive the voltage fluctuations on a typical scooter.

@nutbastard:

If you are white and have dreadlocks you deserve whatever happens to you. Seriously, is there any bigger poser look than that?

@nutbastard: AH, a kindred spirit. I still think I hold the record with 4 times in one day. Ludicrous, absolutely ludicrous.

@TOWken22:

as a white guy who used to have dreadlocks and who drove a 1984 ex-police car impala with a "bad cop no donut" sticker around when i was 16, i too have experienced the pulled-over-once-every-two-weeks-for-no-fucking-reason phenomenon.

@nutbastard: Not so fun when you are a minority and this is actually a regular occurrence (the getting pulled over for DWM [Driving While Minority], not the drinking paper-sacked Gatorades and spreading hepatitis with a cigar)

@ChrisH027:
yeah but remember, you can get a DUI on a friggin skateboard. so pour the rum from the rum bottle into the coke bottle, not the other way around.

fun messing-with-cops activity of the day: go driving around with a car full of minorities while you all drink gatorade wrapped in brown paper bags while constantly passing around and sharing one cigar. Extra Credit: in an american car made between 1978 and 1989.

@athingunique: It sure is! Anything under 50cc and under you don't need to register to drive on US roads. Liqour-cycle, baby!

@Cobolman2: It probably be easier to just knock the person off and out pace them with it as they run after you.

Quite amazing. How long does it take someone to toss it in the bed of their pickup and drive off with it? :P
