And how would you classify your resulting level of post-lunch productivity?

On a scale from 'KFC Bucket to imminent nap-time?'

Predictably, 23andMe is now going bankrupt. So now all that personal medical data will go to the highest bidder.

F-ing Numbnuts.
There's really nothing particularly interesting or noteworthy anyone anywhere will want to do with a quarter of some random guy's kid's genetic code -- I wouldn't worry too much about it.

And I would say the same thing about your medical information. I'm not interested in that.

It's the bad actors... hell even just the "for profit actors" that shouldn't have access to it without my consent.

You are going to need to elaborate how you reached that conclusion, I'm baffled after reading it over and over.

My elderly parents, who after an ebike purchase a couple of years ago, are way more active than they ever would have been, were sworn and spit at by a couple wanna be Lance Armstrongs while being passed on a hill in the banff area.

That grinds my gears. If I were there I think I would have jammed them into the ditch.

I find it hard to believe, but they swore up and down that the guy in front spat at one of them

They should be hunted for sport and hitting them with your car should be legal.

Keep your head up, people are gunning for you.

I've had cyclists tell me to move over in Weaselhead. While I was way over to the right. Next d-bag cyclist gets pushed over by me and their quick release seat shoved up their ass.

Yup, I had a cyclist lose his #### today because I was riding my bike in front of him in a bike lane and actually stopped at a four way stop. He obviously has no intention of stopping and I significantly ruined his ride by following the rules.

You cannot possibly believe that I'm serious and, if you do, that says more about you than it does about me.

No offence to anyone but the “cyclists are the worst” tropes that get bandied around here from time to time have kind of gone stale.
