Today, I was riding my bike with my parents. They make me wear a helmet when I'm with them. Some college age kids drove past and yelled, "Nice helmet!" My mother then told me, "They like you!" I'm sixteen and my helmet is blue. With flowers. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

As much as I personally would like a blue helmet with flowers, I understand. I'm a college kid, and I'm willing to risk brain injury than be seen using a helmet on campus.

At least you are being safe...

I had a friend die because he wasn't wearing a helmet.

your parents are smart.

I feel the same. Actually I wouldn't even ride a bike with my parents in the first place!

Actually it's better if you wear a helmet. Much safer. If you are that worried about it. Buy a new helmet. Blue If you want. But minus the flowers.

Well you are an idiot who clearly is shallow and immature enough to value looks more than maybe ending up your days in a wheelchair or as a vegetable...

It is true. It is much safer to wear a helmet. Buy a new one if you don't like the one you have now.

But what exactly was he doing? Lots of sports use helmets. And honestly if they're just going on a slow and relaxed ride, they are not at risk of death unless they get hit by a car....but a helmet wouldn't help that

ROFL!! YDI for wearing a helmet, they look retarded. And YDI even more for not being able to stand up against your parents.
