It's like seeing someone in their vehicle at dusk or dawn with the lights off. They may be able to see just fine, but you can't see them that well. Hopefully, you just get by them safely, while shaking your head from side to side, thinking what they just don't understand. MYOB!

Unfortunately, a crap-load of folks in my life think that riding a bicycle in Dallas is just asking to die. When they voice their concerns, I thank them but they really should mind their own damn business.

I'm in the MYOB camp.

You should probably just let him collect the Darwin Award. If he can't appreciate constructive criticism on something that has been statistically proven to increase the chances of an accident...
