This is for Nesarin......
What's the most common phrase uttered by English majors?
"Do you want fries with that?"
Anyway, my bike was 120 miles away just a couple of hours ago and I just rode in. |

It's probably true! 8) Fortunately for me I got a decent job working as a network analyst, so the most common thing I say is. "OK, I'll look into that." While the most common thing I think is, "Why would you think it is the network when everyone else's connection is working fine?" |

It is a rule of American English because those English that thought up the language never got it right.
The fucking British still call a motorcycle a motorbike, morons.
So who has it right?
We do, the USA.
Why do we have it right?
Because we are fucking bigger than you and will kick your ass if you give us any shit about it!
It took a revolution and 230+ years to get it right and we are still evolving it every day.
Look at those hip hop assholes that have destroyed the language with their ignorant twist on things. Fucking retards.
Ride a motorcycle, drive a cage |
Couple of points here... firstly us british morons call it a bike
secondly america is smaller than us, its obvious as you have a smaller name. United states of America against United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Have to agree on the drive - ride thing though. drive implies a total lack of understanding of the dynamics of a bike..... and the absolute worst has to be " drive her "
A BIKE'S AN IT NOT A FREAKING HER  |

Thats easy, a automatic 3speed has no clutch.
A brake lever for a throttle and no front brake..
I have a wheel and a CT-70 just waiting...
I'm surprised that you all think I could "drive" it though  |

You are cheating with a CT70 Randy.
I was thinking more along the lines of your CB1100F would be sporting a steering wheel?  |
