Wow.. and spinner hubcaps, whistling exhaust pipes, ridiculously loud (as in hear it from 3000 feet away) car sound systems, obnoxiously huge sport utilities (which never leave the paved roads), cars that look more livable than the trailers of the owner, saggin’ and baggin’ butt hanging out pants, having as many kids as possible (never mind not knowing who dad really is) for what sums up to be nothing more than a status symbol and machismo BS attitudes are sooooooo much better lifestyle choices than riding or owning Segway. Pull your damn heads out of your collective assess and pick on the real nuissances of society

Actually, I took my 15 year old daughter (I’m 52) on a Segway tour in Santa Barbara. They’re fun to ride… like a minibike or an ATV. Who cares if you look like a dork? Can’t be hip all the time. And yes you do need a helmet. I laid it down and was happy I had one on. If you fall doing 13 mph you will be really glad you were wearing protective headgear. Segways are just fun — lighten up and try being a tourist in your own town. You’ll have more fun than you think! The only negative is the price… ouch!

I was just in washington d.c. and I saw segways everywhere. It really made me want to go out and get one. Even though I live in the burbs I started researching where to find them. I found a bunch at strictlysegway.com

The Clampetts were from the Appalachian South, a hot bed of backwardass, inbred, dumb shits. Iowa is not in the Appalachian South, and no one in Iowa has ever uttered “Woooo WHEE!” (the Duke Boys were also from the Appalachian South) unless they were backwardass, inbred, dumb shits visiting from out of state… and let’s face it, you’d have to be backwardass, inbred, dumb shits to select Iowa as a vacation destination.

I doubt anyone in Iowa want or owns a Segway, with the possible exception of some sniveling, pencil-neck liberal at one of the state universities, who motors around in a tweed jacket with suede elbow patches, with a pair of Harry Potter spectacles clinging precariously to the tip of his nose.

Why does everyone hate these so much? I’ve never seen one in use. Seems like a good alternative for commuting - I don’t know about anyone else but I don’t walk 6 -12.5 mph and I can’t easily ride a bike in a skirt and don’t want to get all sweaty getting to work either. It seems like a good green alternative?

Too funny and too true!

The first time I saw one of these contraptions was on Pennsylvania Ave. A uniformed guard (or a police officer….or a traffic cop….or a male meter maid-I can never tell which in DC) was using it.

Uh.

DAMMIT Raven! I try so hard to ride for this girl and she leaves the house wearing that AND on a Seguay. Argh! She’s still rich and pretty. Her Disney contract probably requires her to do a certian number of corny things per month.
