Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I found this while perusing for some new shoes. Is this a joke, or what?

Most of his products seem to have the word gay in the title. I guess he's going for the "gay" keyword searcher?

Snowboarding jackets and mechanical pencils apparently don't make the cut.

This is when you start to show your arse. And your youth.
Your posting history reveals that you take every faint opportunity to make a jab.
We all get it, we know where you stand, your politics are no concern of ours here.
You're only doing yourself a disservice. Aspire for greatness.
I, personally, admire about 99.5% of your posts.

After restocking White House cupboards left bare of those items, he's rather depleted.

Why? You accurately note a tendency of pettiness, then let him off the hook.
