conference dyke
http://www.conferencebike.com/

Hey look everyone, it's a big bike that holds seven upper-middle-class white collar workers in Office Casual clothing! It's perfect for those painful rituals in which people are forced to be jolly and play along until their spirits are broken and they'll say anything to be cut loose for a box lunch!

It's so great working here at PleaseShootMeInTheFaceCO!

Found serendipitously on old memepool entry. "Thanks", nrrd.

Fuck, if only more people did wear brightly-colored ruffled shirts to the office.

I'd prefer a gas oven with room for seven heads.

They had a similar bike on The Amazing Race: Family Edition and it was indeed called a Party Bike.
They had to ride it around Talledega Race Track.

It's an interesting metaphor insofar as only one person is steering and almost no one pedaling can see where the whole thing is going.

[livejournal.com profile] eyeteeth said they apparently carry tourists around on these in NYC. I wonder what the body count is like?

When we were in NYC we saw this thing a couple times. It looked very very dangerous! In Times Square at night!? I was really hoping we'd see one of them wipe out.

Yeah, I've seen them around occasionally. Yes, they are frightening. On the other hand, the fact that I see them with less frequency than stretch Hummers is somehow comforting.

I'll just point out that "corporate team building in hell" is redundant.

Realistically it should have 4 wheels all pointing in opposite directions.

On another note, the rainbow flag color action and ambiguous gender of a few of the riders really makes me wonder where this picture was taken and if they just smacked "CONFERENCEBIKE" on it after the fact.

Super pizza cut crust with every slice!

Lay off. Some guy with good intentions invented that monstrosity and, now that it exists, someone has to do something with it. I would personally reroute some of those chains to maybe power a small pizza warmer. Then it could be "Pizzateamhotbike (Go!Go!Go!)". I'd only buy the most enthusiastic of imported Asian work-slaves (the big apple is full'a them), put them in brightly-coloured lycra outfits, and buy one-time copyright on Godzilla for the ass-kicking psychedelic J-pop commercial.

You, sir, are a purely evil genius. I commend you, and look forward to serving your Thousand Year Reign of Madness!

It would be good if in additon to a team building exercise it told motivational stories like that one about how a bee can't fly according to physics but it does! (a mainstay in north texas motivational business stories)


Also there should be one made for rappers thats all crunk and low to the ground.
