And what exactly is that line pointing to..?

[–] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 27 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Why are they pointing to the kids junk and saying, “special purpose”?

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

I think it's supposed to be for the pad around the bar. But they definitely didn't catch that in editing.

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 7 points 6 days ago

Is this a "the jerk" reference?

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 22 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This looks more 90s to me than 80s.

The shorts and fanny pack point to right around 1992.

I'm living in Denmark, so if bikes are cool, I'm living in one of the coolest places on earth

You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

10 speed... Was this actually 80s?

2 x 5 I'd guess, hard to see but that shifter box seems to have to knobs and the right one has 5 marks

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 6 points 6 days ago

Silly me. I was thinking single at the front. Thank you!

[–] Cobrachicken@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I remember wanting to have one of these shifter boxes then, so most probably yes.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I have the urge to bully this kid

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 8 points 5 days ago

Like you could catch him!

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

I wish I had that awesome fanny pack!
