You're a cyclist, and therefore a freeloader, a parasite,

Unlike cyclists in general, and you in particular, I have the
power of rational thought.



Didn't you claim to use a bike at some point? Either you or Steve Firth -
possibly both. If you did, would you care to explain why you aren't a
cyclist and therefor subject to what you write above?


I'm fairly sure that he also used to decry those who flaunted higher
degrees in contexts where they were irrelevant ("Except that I have the
degree certificates ....").

Still, it's a little much for everyone to remain consistent in our views
over so many years.
