COME ON EVERYBODY, JOIN THE SECTARIAN FUN!!!
I’m already in the unicyclist who don’t wear pants sect…
The pantswearing deities will make sure you burn in everlasting hellfires!!!
No but in all seriousness…
The more I think about it since all this religion jabber is going on, I remember meeting this Christian family who made me feel incredibly uncomfortable because everything they believed in was centralized in on a superiority complex which arose from their fear of the fact that underlying their superficially hostile behavior, they really they didn’t know anything. They hated other sects of Christianity, insulted them, and made a point to make me feel bad for what I believed in. My point is, that all problems between people with different beliefs don’t arise from the fact that those people have different beliefs, but because those people are believing in something for all the wrong reasons. If under any circumstances what you believe in relies on or condones hurting others, you will fail at everything. On the other hand, if no matter what religion you are a practitioner of, you show perfect humility (NOT PASSIVE AGRESSIVENESS, i.e. “yeah sure, but I’m the one that’s truly right.”) then you’ll outshine the world. Because, no one’s ever truly right from their own side, or else there wouldn’t be any suffering. If you think about it every time we do something it’s because we think we’ll be happier then the moment before when we weren’t doing it. So, if there was some secret to happiness that emitted right-ness from its own side to everyone then, like I said, there wouldn’t be anymore suffering. It’s because things have this nature that you can actually be right. Because the only “right-ness” or “wrong-ness” that appears to be coming from anything is coming from your own mind. It’s not coming at you, but coming from you. So, if you understand this, then you can cease all problems between people with other beliefs. Because they’re not right self-existently, and you’re not right self-existently. It sounds simpler then it is, but it works. And, if you get also that because there’s no nature out there existing by itself, other then the nature you’re creating through what you’re saying, thinking, and doing (as you sow so shall you reap), then you can change the world and get everything you’ve ever wanted. So then, what ever you sincerely practice will create your world, and any bad results can be changed by reverting to altering the causes, or, the beliefs being practiced. It’s really just that simple. So, to expand on my last comment, what do you have to lose by just chilling out?
Oh yeah, are there any Tibetan Buddhist unicyclists of the Gelukpa Tradition out there?
I love riding with pants. They chafe and make my crotch burn! Yay!
God bless the chafe…
Pants
I love riding with pants… They keep my girlfriend from seeing my knees when I’m done…
Shorts are ok… But most of mine are my pants with the legs zipped off… Then my girlfriend sees my knees and gets out the hydrogen peroxide…
You know, I’ve always wanted to ride a unicycle naked. It would be fun.
Just watch out for the suicide mount!
Five Iron Frenzy made a bunch of songs about pants… you people should look to those songs to find true pant-wisdom. Without admitting that the pants we wear are not our own, we can never truly be at peace with ourselves.
how about on June 12th ?

Corduroy pants are really the only kind to wear. If you don’t agree, I won’t ride with you.
I was riding on the uneven pavement of Berkeley, California whilst wearing shorts. The side of my knee (where it bends, where it hits the wheel when you mess up) is totally raw. I was also carrying a big bag of costumes over my shoulder.
Dude… what if those people crash? into each other? And please, paco, the mental image is killing me.
I just got back from a Primus concert at the Greek Theater (on UC campus). I took my coker. I was wearing pants. No chafing.

When I joined the department of Shadowy Arts and Crafts, I had to steal my own pants without noticing…
