Admit it, we are all narcissists.....
How many of us look to the right when passing a merchant's plate glass window to admire how awesome we look? Dang fine, I would say. Not so good in heavy traffic, though.

The window never lies...
We look so much slimmer, too. Must be the Buddy slipstream effect.

I look like one of these guys
But with a Snell-approved cowboy hat, and my beard isn't as manly.
Which isn't to say I'm not vain, I crave attention, even if my visage is horrifying.

Of course when I was young, single, and handsome with a 28 inch waist and 54 inch chest I was super vain and did my fair share of mistakes when it comes to a woman's feelings and an other man's envy. But now that Im old and bent I realize I had it all wrong. Now I wear my cloths until they are rags and drive ugly cars. One neighbor summed up the whole concept when she asked me "why do you bare to be seen driving that old beat up 1981 pickup truck with the off color fender, faded scratched up body, dressed like a vagabond" . Answer, becasue I get respect, no one steals from me, parks next to me, and the rich always give me the right of way both driving and on foot, only the meek and poor give me the time of day and I find them quite genuine.

Sometimes I'll wear skirts/dresses that will flutter when I ride so when I look at myself I can imagine I'm in an old movie riding a scoot through Europe. My scooter rides are fun as is, but they get even more fun when I pretend I managed to scoot through time/space.
When I ride two up with my best friend, we get dressed up kind of cute and wave with ferocity at anyone that looks our way. I'm still not convinced that life is NOT the Mia-parade

Isn't it a real bitch when you bring your significant other along for the ride and you pass one of those reflective windows and all of a sudden your forced to decide which of the three gets the more of your attention.
You? Other? Scoot?
Or you pass a window turn your head to gaze and find there are to many people walking by blocking your view.It sucks cause your forced to go around the block and try again.

lol, I think similar thoughts. If I dress up juuuuust right, I might actually be warped into a real life Roman Holiday. I am, at the very least, guilty of color matching my attire to my scoot on sunny days.mia_mali wrote:Sometimes I'll wear skirts/dresses that will flutter when I ride so when I look at myself I can imagine I'm in an old movie riding a scoot through Europe.
