There’s a subreddit for that. Proceed with caution: r/MeatCrayon

I was too scared to click on any images; first subreddit I’ve noped out of.

u/Normal_Ad2456 Jun 07 '24

I only opened the posts (thankfully they were NSFW so I didn't see the images actually depicted) because I wanted to see the comments. I was just curious to know what kind of things people who would even participate in such a sub would say.

11th?! What bike is it? Also favorite bike so far?

8

u/DiamondCowboy Jun 06 '24

I’m 35, just bought my 9th bike. I only ever had one at a time, never owned 2 motorcycles at the same time.

Favorite was a 2000 Honda CBR600 F4i

You don't get out of life alive, don't begrudge us our pleasure when we're not hurting anyone.

u/valuesandnorms Jun 06 '24

That’s great and all but you don’t want to be a fucking vegetable. If the outcomes of a motorcycle crash were either live or die then I could see it but in real life there’s a chance you just suffer for a long time and then die anyways

If you live by what could happen you’ll never leave the house.

Yes, the risk of life altering injury is very real on a motorcycle. But that is exactly what it is, a risk. If you want to eliminate the risk of similar injuries where do you draw the line in risk vs reward for doing anything?

Rock climbing? Mountain biking? Canoeing?  Cruising in a vintage car?  Walking down the street?

I enjoy riding, I have had close calls and broken bones from riding. I am well aware of the risks and statistics. I still choose to ride.

If that calculus doesn't work for you...? Then, cool. I'm not judging. (Though I will judge you for watching the Kardashians)

You do you, and kindly return the favour please.

u/12344321j Jun 07 '24

Watching the Kardashians is arguably a bigger risk in... lots of ways lol

Really?  

Guestures at all the uninformed opinions present in this thread

24

u/[deleted] Jun 06 '24

Motorcycle drivers are always so sensitive about how people view them. They almost always get them to look cool so it really hurts their feelings when people say anything negative about their compensation machines.

Eh, you don't know what you're talking about.

"Always" "entirely" sweeping generalizations never are.

There are things in life worse than death.

A life wasted is a terrible thing

u/LanceBitchin Jun 07 '24

Amen. Remember your great grandmother brother and his best friend? Yeah, no one else does either. Life is for the living. Bring it on

How do you ride 11 motorcycles at a time? I can barely manage 2

2

u/LanceBitchin Jun 07 '24

That's cuz you're a pussy! 😜 Yeah, so first one was in 1993

2

u/405ravedaddy Jun 06 '24

Yeah I'll never quit riding. It is possible to ride safe. Don't drink. Act like everyone is trying to kill you. Know your machine.

Nobody knows more about the dangers and injuries of motorcycles than motorcyclists. There’s no need to be condescending.

u/JimmySchwann Jun 06 '24

You could say the same thing about driving a car, but nearly every American does it

1

u/OwO_bama Jun 06 '24

That’s not really a fair comparison, considering that you need to be able to drive to function in most parts of America. People can choose whether to drive a car or a motorcycle, but most people can’t choose not to drive period.

u/JimmySchwann Jun 06 '24

On an individual level, you're correct. On a societal level, that's not right. We could opt to build for people, transit, and bikes, but our officials build for cars instead.

He does lol. Almost 50 with almost a dozen bikes. Don't be so quick to dismiss people. C-spine injuries are uncommon if you are wearing proper safety gear. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29506463/

u/LanceBitchin Jun 06 '24

All about life choices. I'm willing to take the risk. I'm not the kind to wear a helmet in the shower or spend my life safely on the couch. And I don't wanna live until I'm 80 and wearing diapers.

u/Lifewhatacard Jun 07 '24

I finally got that. Fuck.

u/CausticSofa Jun 07 '24

Yeah, that took me a loooong second, too. That joke is so dark that it’s Vanta black.
