That was a disappointingly short and uneventful thread. Could you not have spun it out a bit more...

Has he only got one bike?

Sorry, try to keep these fripperies to Twitter, but those followers, eh?
*cue mass unfollowing*
And yes, I have n=1 bicycles. Which is the perfect number for a tenement third floor landing to enable your neighbours to still talk to you.

Haud on, drama... Right.

Today was a quiet chain WIN! And a Puncture FAIL! I think 'nik jinxed me with the picture. :)

Use proper manly lube next time, not this spray wax stuff (isn't that for removing lady hairs from legs, etc. ?). I'm talking about red oil, in a bottle, with a squirty nozzle at the top. You even have to wipe your hands with a rag afterwards, that's how garage mechanic manly this stuff is. Oh, and don't forget to don overalls, work boots, and tuck a pencil behind your ear to complete the look.

Hee! It DID have a nozzle, it's Rock n' Roll extreme! EXTREEEEEME! *makes devil sign with outstretched hand*

"I'm talking about red oil, in a bottle, with a squirty nozzle at the top."
A squirty nozzle? Pshaw! A metal can with a button thingy over the handle and a satisfying 'plup plup plup' sound as you depress it to drip out the oil. Now that is a manly oil dispenser...
(which I don't have, but my dad did, and I'm now hankering after one for my garage... and a boilersuit)

My Dad has one of those oil cans too! "Plup plup plup" is the exact sound.
I only use that girlie Finish Line teflon stuff. I haven't tried it on my legs, yet. :)

Pound land had them at one point, nearly bought one just for the comedy value.

Hmm I want a boiler suit too. I have owned a few over the years but not at the mo. My dad also had a old oil can 'plup plup plup' type. I might just have to get one now through.
Posted 12 years ago # -
Loads of them on eBay! I really am going to have to indulge now.
And then buy massivel quantities of Arellcat's girlie teflon Finish Line stuff to fill it...

Then who can forget this. An almost perfect oil can sound:

The Oil Can on the Cluture Show
The plup coud be said to encompass a post-modern take on the ineffability of the very nature of being with the need for ongoing remedial intervention expressing an understanding that life itself is not an independent motion through the ages but rather an intertwined mutuality referencing the give and take aspects of societal functionality.

Oh I've had a few boiler suits over the years. For some reason, not at the moment, use army surplus combat trousers instead. I am now considering getting a boiler suit though: ship's chandlers used to have the best ones, with handy pockets, well stitched button fronts, etc.
Boiler suits were "in" with art students in the 1980s. And dungarees.
Oh, and the 'plup plup' can has to be made of brass. Like the guages on steam engines.
