Todays rant. Balaclavas wearers, What the F*@k is wrong with you?!

There was some fucker wearing one today!

Today! It's 7 -8 degrees C out there. What the fuck was wrong with the retard!?

I should have killed him.
That was me.

That was me.

I fucking thought it was.

I write an entry in my book.

"The Balaclavas Diaries"

Best post ever.

ha ha!

I like to use a buff. If I pull it up over my nose, I feel like a cowboy.

I wonder if the following

enrages you as much?
(bikesnob provided the link and all I could think of was "the Brick")

Nearly as much, fucking ninja chic.

The wording in the blurb is what really gets on my tits though. I mean really, could you pump any more bullshit into one paragraph?

what's [a] photographic aesthetic?

my cock and balls.

ah, cheers.

wouldn't it make more sense if you could actually view the clothing they are talking about, at least put up some images rather than the ninja hoodie

its the classic internet syndrome of shutter finger excitement. you get so excited about something you are about to do that you have to take pictures of it half done and put them online.

of course, by the time it's finished, no one cares.

fuck, this thread just reminded me, saw some guy crossing the road this morning on my ride in wearing one of those blank white masks. He'd drawn a little tear on it like a mime. He looked like a bit of a rude boy too. No one really took any notice either. Really odd.

Dead Presidents.

ha, yeah – I just didn't think it was all that sociably acceptable to wear a mask on your day to day activities, unless of course you've been horrifically burnt or if its halloween.

Probably works for RBS, bank robbers.

Temps dipped a bit this week and the balaclavas came out in full force. Saw a shit load on monday.

I still have not felt *that *cold to need to cover my ears.

+1 to gasmask hatred. come on, if your system is so delicate that you'll get asthma from being on the streets, move to the countryside.

I second that. For example this guy... who even bothered to write about why he wears one:

I'm sure he's lovely and everything, but he looks like a tool.

"Mummy, the air tastes funny!"

Kids shout "Shredder!" if you wear that mask in Sarf London.

LOL! I might start doing that...

balaclavas are sooo nice below 5C

No they are not, we don't live in Helsinki. If you have cold ears wear a hat.

hats obscure your vision and also they make your head hot after a while.

a well-worn balaclava can be perfect for cold days.

not possible...

I mean like a beanie. Does not affect my vision at all, but it keeps my ears warm. It does not make me that hot either, because I'd only wear it if it was really cold. I still don't think a balaclava is ever necessary in London. Unless we enter a new ice-age or something. Each to their own though...
