Years ago I was coming Eastbound down Picadilly in usual heavy traffic. A pedestrian was standing in the middle of the road, not on an island, dithering. As I passed him he shouted at me for being too close or something. I stopped and remonstrated that he was standing in the road and probably shouldn't be.
He told me that "You cyclists are all the same." I returned with the point that he was generalising and pointed out "not all daft cunts in tweed suits are the same."
He missed the point and got pretty angry about being called a daft cunt. The daft cunt.
