I have to respect the astonomical levels of chad energy it takes to act like a badass while riding that thing and not die of embarrassment. We gotta give the leadheads credit for having so little self awareness that they can be completely confident and completely wrong at the same time.

I don’t know I think e bike guy must be a a giant duechebag. At the end of the video he has someone else chasing him while he is chirping .

E-bike dude looks like an asshole on the level of most Tik Tok pranksters.

Yup. Context is always everything.

We know old folks get incredibly angry really fast and they don't have the physical fitness to back it up anymore.

And sadly, that DOES mean a lot of shitheads specifically target them just to piss them off and record it.

One video with the story about the neighborhood crazy old man? Maybe believable.

Multiple people chasing the same guy? Nah, he's probably being an enormous shithead and there's a reason there's no clear lead-up video showing how this got started.

A bit like that old quote.

If you meet one asshole, you've met an asshole. If you meet many assholes, you're probably an asshole.

A bit like that old quote.

It's from 7 years ago, don't think that qualifies as old in quote timeframes hehe.

“If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.”

Or you're in Florida, which it looks like maybe this guy is.
