Lance / Waxing / Waving / On Your Left / Leg Shaving
So the other day I had just waxed my chain and my legs and went for a ride on the sidewalk in my non-human helmet when Lance Armstrong passed without waving or announcing.

Waxing is obsolete, we all use hair remover now. Or pluck 'em out individually.

Was he carrying a messenger bag full of stolen baby bolts? Did he yell at you? Did you yell at him? Are you both going to yell at me?
