Huh.

Ming the Merciless rides a bike. Who knew?

A) How is this WTF?

B) When were you in Philadelphia to get a photo of me on my bike?

Is there a purpose (other than WTFness, which of course is a valid reason) to moving the pedals up there where the seat usually is?

The wft is that he went through a considerable amount of effort to modify the bike to work with an upside down frame like that. But the wiring job looks like he just slapped it together in 5 minutes.

LabRat · 02-23-2009, 04:11 PM

Oh. I thought it was that he was wearing socks with sandals in shorts weather.

Nah, just pull the H bars and put the front fork in backwards, I doubt he actually swapped the top and bottom bearing cups. 15 minutes tops.

glatt · 02-23-2009, 05:32 PM

but the gears are on the wrong side and the rear derailer is upside down (relative to the frame.) Isn't it?

footfootfoot · 02-23-2009, 06:04 PM

Good point. It has a one piece crank so he had to pull a pedal and thread the whole thing through the BB, then put it back together. It looks like a cheap bike so the derailleur probably had an integral hanger rather than one on the frame, it looks like he abandoned the front derailleur and rear brake,
but why bother putting the gears on that side anyway?

You're right. A lot of work. maybe he ran out out weed when he got to the wiring part.

goofy, more why the fuck than waht the fuck

Flint: What's WTF about a standard 256-core system? Is it that it's running Windows?

This one's from Carnival in Brazil:

And, given that these are CARNIVAL pictures, some of them are marginally-to-clearly NSFW. Boston.com put them on the front page, but that might not save your job. Just FYI.

Ah...those beautiful pagan Catholics! Gotta love 'em!

I really love the whole "let's get loaded, largely naked, and fuck our brains out after a huge debauchery before we have to purify ourselves at Lent" notion of Mardis Gras. In fact, I love it so much, I became a Pagan, so I can do it year 'round!
