It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I appreciate you! I'm working on it. I've been working in losing weight and strengthening, and biking 8km each way to work every day is definitely helping that.

However, recently I saw someone who I'm sure has quads of, I don't even know what. There's a local ice cream stand in my area I've seen before, that I assumed was towed by a car. Nope, saw the person towing it behind a bike the other day. It was an analog bike too.
