(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So my friend and I were talking about something, and he said:

"Come over to my house and see this"
and I said:
"I don't feel like it, unless you give me gas money"

and then he said:

"You live really close, just drive your bike over"

And I told him that you "ride" a bike, not drive it.

He keeps saying that you drive a bike, you drive a motorcycle, and you drive a car.

I keep telling him that Driving is defined as

Then he said, "well if there is two people on a bike, One has to be driving it"

I argued that they're both RIDING the ****ing bike.

Basically, he's stubborn as ****, and won't admit it when he's wrong. It's amazing how fast this argument escalated, before we knew it we were yelling at each other and I was trying to show him how much of an idiot he's being, but he keeps kicking me from the party

So I'm making a poll.

Do you "Drive", or "Ride" a bicycle?

I'm getting everyone's opinion. I'm not asking for a debate, I want people to simply answer a poll. So you basically moved this from a section where it was fine in that had 42 people viewing it, to one that is practically dead with 1 person viewing it. Thanks a lot. you know, If people can +rep for agreeing with a moderator action, I'm sure I could -rep for disagreeing with something pointless

This section is abused for almost every single poll out there.


This is a debate my friend, if your post is not related to the topic then it will be perceived as spam.
