Oh! THey have these in my work neighborhood. SO DORKY and lazy! I haven't had any run-ins with them yet though.
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

They were kind of amusing when they first got started. But (1) the novelty's worn off and (2) there are lots more of them and there are more people in each group. And the morons are dangerous!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm going down to the County Clerk's office with a co-worker as she and her partner go to get their marriage license. I'm already getting weepy.
Oh... Happy tears! I wish them happiness.

here's one group that I've finally had to send a complaint about.
Tour groups on Segways.
I saw one of those totally wipe out. I don't know what happened, I was across the street, they were all stationary, I was looking at the traffic. Suddenly, I heard a loud whirr and exclamations, looked over, and a woman was flat on her back on the ground.

The thing is, I don't care if they hurt themselves. They can win the Darwin Award, for all I care. But they're making it dangerous for ME to walk on the sidewalk!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'd have a hard time restraining myself from pointing and laughing. It would be a "go team schadenfraude" moment (along with seeing the following types wipe out: roller bladers who barrel past you with just inches to spare and cyclists who use the sidewalk as a racetrack, and then act like you're a nuisance because your walking on their road). Hate, Hate, HATE Segways!
