I know all the young dudes gotta ride fixies with feet velcro'd in, but fer god's sake wear a helmet. The fixie endo I watched tonight—the third I've seen in as many years—was entirely the rider's fault, as usual (you just had to change your sweater while riding, o hot-dog). But this young dude didn't look so hot with his face and arms scratched up and his girl telling him she "knew that was going to happen".

Though defensive violence will always be a sad necessity in the eyes of men of principle, it would be still more unfortunate if wrongdoers should dominate just men.
