It drives me crazy too so I'm gonna rant back at you. I do a lot of long distance boondock camping ebike trips. After a few days out I feel tough as nails. Under the sun, covered in bike grease, fixing my own mechanical and electrical problems, riding through the rain, carrying days worth of food and water on a lightweight machine, and just doing what you gotta do to keep it rolling.
And then I see somebody cruise by in their luxury jacked up shiny truck, they slam on the accelerator as they go past to show off how fast the fossils they bought at the gas station can make them go. The thing that gets under my skin the most is that they are so dumb that I know they actually think they're tough guys just because they feel big in their little toys. That's the part that irks me. If there was any justice in this world and they could just understand how pathetic they actually are that would help a lot.
