Heh. What a great excuse for carrying a pair of, say, 24" long 1.25"
diameter oak dowels. “They’re for balancing, officer.”

It’s for this reason you should beware of women driving cars with phones
held to their ears…
The preceding comment was sexist. I already know. Now it’s time to figure
out why Unibabyguy feels women should interrupt their conversations when he
rides by…

Could it be that the friends conversation is more INTERESTING than you
are?
Your just some bloke on a funny bike after all. Gosip is serious stuff.
It seems like this is a problem to you.
Maybe you should walk over, interupt the conversation yourself, an tell them you want them to interupt their conversation and pay full attention to you?
Why do you think it’s a problem for me? I just made
an observation, that’s all. Like for example, I observe
that a post that isn’t 100% clear will cause people to
misinterpret it.
But since you mention it, why do you think I should
interrupt their conversation? Do you often interrupt
people in their conversation? What leads you to
this behavior? Maybe you should ride over to women
and perform tricks in front of them, and prevent
them from escaping. Place them on your shoulders
and then do additional tricks. When you hear the
screams, it indicates they’re enjoying the ride.
Well “what’s in the hart is on the tongue”.
Since you started this post, I suspect you to have this desire.
At least there must be some reason why you noticed this.
I would not be suprised when you have even have wild fantasies on this happening to you one day. But that last conclusion is based on my own experience, since I like to get remarks/respect/conversation/interaction/friendship/long term relationships/etc. with women wether I’m on unicycle or not.
But yes, I realize we’re not all the same. (please to do misinterpret this last part).
Interuption coversations is indead very impolite, I only will encourage it unless you really sure it would have positive effect on all partys.
A calculation for this would be hard to make, and getting experience in this is not cheap.
Therefore you may try another tactic: take part in the female discussion and try to change the subject.
Personally I tried this couple of times (probably with other topics than unicycling), but it costed me lots and lots of patience. So yes, even focussing on level 10 will be a more usefull waste of time and energy.
If we focus more on the biological part of it, it’s proofen that women can concentrate better than men om multiple things together (like watering plants while making a phonecall during watching television and cooking). Somehow this has to do with brains, I think, but don’t ask me. So maybe you think you are not noticed, but your just only not getting any response. Or you are getting response, but you just recognize it. (I’ve been told men are speciliast in not noticing non-verbal language sent out by women). Also keep in mind it’s even posible that YOU are the topic of conversation, and they just keep that among themselfses!
I was riding down to the grocery store today on my lunch break from work. I managed to break two old ladies from their conversation to watch me unicycle into the store! Damn I’m getting good.
