Some guy on Bike Forums said it best about the whole (boring) BMX debate "People having fun always beats people hating on people having fun."

To all the haters.
What one person thinks is worth watching is not what another person thinks is what is worth watching. This is the beauty in diversity. I think it is fucking ridiculous that some people watch a load of yobs kick a small ball around a pitch for 90 min, but what they do is up to them. It makes many poeple happy to watch a film of football. You may only want to watch a video of BMX / mtb (which I personally agree is more interesting) but don't shit on someone else just because they want to watch a fixed gear video, you don't have to watch it.

This next bit is at no one person in particular.
There seems to be a lot of hate in the forum recently. People hating things that are "Hipster" or just non traditional just for the sake of being anti cool. People seem taking pride in trying to be as un-new-wave-fixed-wheel culture as possible and seemingly worrying that they may be mistaken for a hipster. This is just as bad as someone getting obsessed over being cool and color matching their condom / grip / chain to their socks / saddle / butt plug and hating anyone who doesn't color match. Whatever side of the fence you sit get over yourself if you're worrying what other people are classifying you as.
