What wrong with Punk Kids these days...

The Buddha · October 02, 2003, 10:08:35 AM

This punk kid on a R6 today claimed that my GS (91 blue and silver with a stripe of magenta??) was a copy of his blue, white and grey R6's paint scheme...Yea mine looked newish (thanks KevinC) ...and his looked well (T)rashed... I asked him which year his was and he said its old...its an 01... WTF... I told him this is a 91...how did they copy an 01 in 91...and he says... "they still could have done it" ...Smart kid too ... Should have taught him to say "would you like fries with that" But I guess that would have gotten in the way of his mooching off his parents... God I miss those days when punk kids wanted to be Michael Jackson... and puts the harley idiots to shame...
Cool.

As Red Foreman would say "That kid is a DUMBA$$"
I am one of those Gen X's who graduated in 89 and know one cool wanted to be Michael Jackson.

The cool kids were into U2 or Guns n Roses

I just started college the beginning of september.... And well... people really arnt so bright. Its just amazing what people do/say.

Oh well, just hope he doesnt get himself or someone else killed and raises our insurance rates. Not that it matters for kids my age with thoes bikes, their parents pay anyway!

Something tells me you'd own him in any sort of turn

I ride like an old man (no offence to old men BTW) ...I promise, (well where is werase when you need him) I do have a decent looking (if oil leaking/burning) 41K mile GS to prove it...and it only has ~1/4 the bike miles in the last 8 years...
Cool.

Nooo, a dumb statement like this kid made almost makes the spam-suckin double-wide Harley crowd look smart. (is it possible??)

Man, I wish I could ride like an old man. GSJack puts more miles on his bike in two weeks than I have all year.

What's the saying? "There are old riders and stupid riders, but no old stupid riders."

The Buddha · October 02, 2003, 11:22:27 AM

Its pretty much a Tie where stupidity is concerned.
Cool.

I so agree with you on that statement.

The Buddha · October 02, 2003, 11:45:27 AM

Yea GsJack... He does put us kids to total shame... He uses his GS like a winnebago. I should figure out how he does it and I can save like 25K on a winnebago.
Cool.

GnR is currently getting ready to release a new album, although it's more like "Axle and a bunch of guys no one's heard of." Slash and company know enough to stay away from that trainwreck.

The Buddha · October 03, 2003, 12:37:11 PM

That was never GnR...it was GnR2... Anyway Iggy Pop was in it wasn't he ... not total nobodies. They evidently have been releasing that album for 3 years. Some lawsuit is in the way. Anyway I dont mind that or Axl going solo ... Just dont re union. They all have solo's or other bands they have hooked up with ... like slash's snake pit..
Cool.

I caught their show in boston a few months back and thought it was incredible. I'm old enough to remember the first lineup and can say that they always had the potential to be great live, but drug problems usually ruined their performance. The bunch of guys that "no one's heard of" are actually some of the top studio and performance musicians. Axl still has his problems (the cancelled the tour b/c he refused to go to his show before a west-coast basketball game ended) but when they get onstage they are very very tight. BTW, the new stuff is odd and more techno/industrial, but the new band's rendition of the old songs were as good as, if not better than, any GnR performance I remember.

I am with JohNLA and Red Foreman. That kid is a DUMBASS and when he doesn't give me enough fries I will complain to his manager
