Welcome to The Shitpost Office

Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Sinister

Treat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.

No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe

Rule 2: No Prohibited Postage

Some packages are simply undeliverable. That means:

No spam or scams
No porn or sexually explicit content
No illegal content
NSFW content must be properly tagged

If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

Okay... fine argument.

But... inexpensive?

Really?

I spent 100 euros on my current bike

50 for a second-hand bike at the bike shop 50 for a cargo rack

My wife and I find bikes for free all the time, especially kid's bikes. People just leave them by their trash cans for pickup. Can't even sell them they're so common. Guy at the flea market gave her a nice purple adult bike last Saturday.

Same bikes from Walmart? Oh hell no.

Inexpensive? In THIS economy?

We can't sell a bike for any price around here. People just leave them out for whoever wants them.

I wish I could still ride a bike. I walk for most of my errands and just enjoying the local nature trails, but bike seats are agony after both a bike accident 40 years ago (thrown 10 feet after an RV sideswiped me) and catastrophic car accident 11 years ago. Both made my existing lower back issues far more urgent and exceptionally painful before getting on a bike.

You guys have zero understanding of America.

The only way this will even get started is if there's a push for motorcycles over cars. Thats a good middle ground.

People in every city between LA and New York will laugh at you for trying to use a bike for daily activities. Shit is just too far apart. Which is fine with me, I dont like neighbors, im loud and dont like people watching me in my yard. Probably autistic.
