Morons can't leave poor Scooter Dude alone
He's the guy you see sailing around Copley Square on a skateboard with a plastic sail. He reports on his excursion late Saturday night:
I found it strange that there were more than the usual number of detractors and disbelievers, the ones who only have comments like, "Try getting a better sail! Ha!" or, "As if that's going to work, you idiot! You suck!"
I have a hard time understanding people who can so freely and readily speak out of ignorance. Why can't these few insecure and fear-driven people even consider that, after all these years I've been succeeding in this and found it a perfect delight and joy, that any objection or problem they may suggest I've already dealt with and moved on? ...

They're not all morons
You sorta distort his post when you leave off the best part:
(emphasis mine)
True that
Maybe I'm just easily annoyed or something (no, really?), I just find it hard to understand people cursing out this guy gliding around the square.
Heh
You're turning on a login requirement for UH to stop anonymous crap-throwing...and you can't understand random people cursing out a land-glider in Copley?

He provides entertainment

Are you acquainted with the phrase:
Massholes. It was just another encounter.
He's my uncle!
Scooter Dude is my uncle and I'd just like to say that it is for precisely the reason that he IS Scooter Dude that he is quite possibly the most fun adult I've ever spent time with. He is known for showing up at any event with a spectacular hat creation. If I saw someone being mean to my uncle during my daily walks through Copley, well, darn it, I'd just have to beat them up.
