Last two days...
In an ASL, me to a motorcyclist. "Funny looking bicycle"
Them: usual strangled nonsense,
Me: "Pardon?
[Switches engine off and hauls helmet chinpiece down] I've got a bike as well! This is a bike! I'm not stupid!
Me: No, just illegal.
Lights change. They can't get their bike started again.... I head off, and like an idiot turn left for Tesco instead of going straight on to GP.
Today, getting some air, passing wide of the first of two badly sunken manhole covers. BEEEEEP!
I point sharply down at the next pit in the road, and of course he overtakes and gets level with me for a shout.
"Get your fucking yellow jacket on!"
I am unsure as to whether he thinks Hi-Viz is compulsory, or if he was suggesting I start on road repairs. Either way, I fell into simplicity with a "Fuck off you wanker".
