Far worse is the inevitable quip when you've ridden to work on any
morning morning it's below freezing, and you're taking off your
gear, waiting for the elevator:  "Isn't it cold out there?"
Or there you are at a light.  It's raining hard.  Some a**hole driving
a stratocruiser pulls up in the right lane, rolls down the window and
says: "Aren't you wet?"  AAAAAAAUUUUUGGGGHHH!!! $%^#$**&^!

Any bikers out there figured out some snappy comebacks?
