[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading the comments by cyclists in this thread makes me hate cyclists more than I ever thought possible. The entitled smugness is just boundless. I used to be sort of indifferent to them, but now that I think about all the times I've seen them blow through redlights or stop signs, then post here how it's no big thing and deflect the issue saying drivers run redlights too.... you know what? I've never seen a car drive along the shoulder past other traffic waiting for a light, and then drive through the light forcing other cars to avoid them. But I see cyclists do it all the time. Then I read some of them on this thread, it infuriates me. I hate them. HATE them![/quote]

Yeah.  I think this thread should sufficiently answer OP's question.  It appears to be a huge level of smugness, total lack of concern for other people bordering on some kind of cognitive social disorder, and a superiority complex.  Not a good combination, to say the least.

And I came into the thread not disliking cyclists either.  [/quote]

really. you came in neutral saw a guy making remarks about nerds getting beaten up, wanting to drive within 6 inches of them, saw some cyclists respond with explanations and facts and that is making you dislike cyclists?   I. DO. NOT. BELIEVE. YOU

[b]I mean I could explain how part of the reason I bike is precisely for the greater good[/b], but I guess you would call that smug as well.   Basically you attack us and when we defend ourselves anything we say is smug.

I think you are not someone who came in as neutral, but someone using your typical DC rhetorical skills to shame people when you cannot answer substantive arguments.  [/quote]
