holy fuck, the lengths you're going to just to avoid acknowledging what actually happened are incredible.
you conveniently stopped at "what really pissed me off though was this one kid" and left out the part immediately afterward where i explicitly described him grabbing the handlebars and trying to climb onto my scooter. funny how that works, isn't it? you literally have to cut my explanation in half to make your version of events sound believable.
and another thing, since apparently reading comprehension is such a struggle here, those were words i used in a reddit post describing an incident that pissed me off. i didn't walk outside and start calling children "little shits" to their faces. you're taking language from an angry retelling and presenting it as though that's what i actually said to them.
what actually happened was that one kid out of three tried climbing onto my expensive scooter while it was sitting on its kickstand. the other two weren't a problem. i went outside and sternly told him to get off and leave it alone. yes, i raised my voice enough to be heard. i didn't stand there screaming at three children or go on some unhinged tirade. you're the one who is doing that for me.
i don't owe a kid a fucking guided tour of my scooter after catching him trying to climb onto it without permission either. what kind of ridiculous expectation is that? i'm supposed to stand there answering questions and being an "ambassador for the hobby" while some random kid treats my property like playground equipment? give me a break. there's a time for being friendly and there's a time for correcting behaviour before somebody gets hurt or something gets damaged.
as for the legality of my scooter, what the fuck does that have to do with this situation? whether a particular scooter complies with road regulations is an entirely separate question from whether someone has permission to climb onto it. it was parked, powered off and locked. its potential top speed doesn't magically make it public property. and if you're so concerned about safety, you should be the first person recognizing why a child shouldn't be climbing onto a heavy motorized vehicle sitting on a kickstand.
i've already acknowledged that my original post was angry and that i could have used better language. that's literally why i edited it. but apparently acknowledging that isn't good enough for you. you'd rather keep exaggerating the incident until it resembles something completely different.
and the hypocrisy is still hilarious. you've repeatedly called me a cunt, accused me of lying, invented details about my behaviour, and now you're trying to diagnose me with anger issues based on a fucking reddit exchange. all while presenting yourself as some authority on maturity and appropriate social interactions.
if you want to criticize the language i used in my original post, go right ahead. there's a legitimate discussion to be had there. but stop pretending that a stern reprimand for physically interfering with someone else's property is the same thing as screaming abuse at innocent children for being curious.
you've spent this entire exchange arguing against a version of events that exists largely in your own imagination. and the fact that you have to keep distorting what happened to maintain your moral high ground says a hell of a lot more about your argument than it does about me.

edit: the fact that you reduced this to "what harm did they do besides get some grease on the grips?" is exactly the problem i'm talking about.
there's a massive difference between a kid admiring someone's scooter and physically grabbing the handlebars and trying to climb onto it without permission.
we're talking about a roughly $7,000 machine that weighs a considerable amount and is capable of 120 km/h. if the kid had knocked it off its kickstand, he could have seriously injured himself, damaged the scooter, or both.
the fact that nothing serious happened doesn't mean the behaviour was acceptable. you don't wait until someone damages your property or gets hurt before intervening.
and yes, they're children. that's precisely why they need to be taught boundaries and why powerful electric scooters shouldn't be treated like playground equipment.
could i have been calmer? sure. but that doesn't make me wrong for immediately stopping someone from climbing onto my property. and calling me a cunt while lecturing me about how to speak to other people is a pretty remarkable contradiction.

be mindful that it could have went the other way around.

Says they are 'Canadian' but all the clothing is manufactured overseas. Sri Lanka, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Slave labor.
Anyone want to know how much of a profit roughly they are making?
I searched the public trade database, Volza, and it lists Vietnam-to-Canada shipments dated May 20, 2025, explicitly described as Manmade-brand underwear, 91% modal and 9% elastane.
There was two shipments where they bought combined quantity of 58,469 units at $3.25 a piece.
Do the math. They charge $24 for a single pair of briefs and buy them for $3.25 each. Thats a 638% markup. How Canadian of them.
The "roughly ten months of development and dozens of revisions before launching the boxer brief" remains a company claim.
Their FAQ says design happens in Montreal. However, those sources don’t establish that every technical contribution happened in Canada, or identify every contributor’s nationality.
Their development story doesn’t prove that the underwear is uniquely innovative, superior to cheaper alternatives, or worth the premium either.
