A real Oxymoron
«

My wife and I went to Warrenville IL this weekend to pick up our daughter from her summer internship this weekend. I was sitting in front of her hotel and watching (and hearing) scores of M/Cs all packed and heading westward on I88 (towards Sturgis?).
Once packed up, we cruised eastward toward home (Detroit) and we kept seeing more and more M/Cs going in the other direction. My daughter asked why there were so many bikes heading the other way. So I said that they were probably going to Sturgis SD. All of a sudden brake lights were coming on all over and cars were stopping or slowing rapidly as we got into the typical Chicagoland/Indiana traffic jam on I80/I94. Going from 70 mph cruise to a four lane parking lot can make for a simple trip into a nightmare in a matter of seconds.
Sitting in traffic is not one of my favorite past-times, but I had to keep my cool. So I started to look for interesting or amusing drivers or vehicles. It didn't take long,.....the first one was a Honda Pilot CUV with a large
Harley Davison
logo covering the rear window. I laughed out loud and pointed at it, while my wife said "Now that's an Oxymoron", and I quipped "Maybe just a Moron".
That is like the guy that drives a Chevy Aveo with a bumper sticker that says "
Out of work?....Keep buying foreign
".

I had a guy in a Toyota pickup (with a HD sticker in the window) give me crap for my Valk once at a stop light... I educated him. His defense was that his truck was built in Evansville Indiana. "Oh yeah dipshit... my Valk was built in Marysville OHIO!"
Morons are all around us, and actively trying to kill us usually.
