the segway

I dont think society has gotten lazy enough to buy into this whole concept.

I mean why walk short distances when you can pay to buy a machine to do the walking for you?

I wanted a Segway about as much as i want a nice swift kick in the balls every morning. (why dont they just add a 3rd wheel? Maddox brings up a good point....then they dont need all that balance stuff...) Plus i think they Segway is illegal to ride on they sidewalk where i live, because the (like) 5 people who had one would constantly run into people.

I saw one today live for the first time when I was at BART. It was being used by a Baskin Robbins representative and it was decorated with Baskin Robbins promotions. I had forgotten about them but after having seen it in action it renewed my sense of desire for one. And now they have 4 different models and three cool colors to choose from! Too bad they're as expensive as (fill in the blank). I'm hoping when I turn into a grown-up I'll have enough money to buy one.

I saw some guy riding one down the sidewalk in georgetown (very heavy foot traffic in that area) and thought he was a dick...

I'd try to knock him off.

And steal his segway. And his money. And.... hm no I wouldn't, I'm too nice for that.

Segways are instead comedy. Anybody watch Arrested Development? The Segway is the absolute PERFECT thing that Gob should ride around in...fits him so well.
