I like my bike to much to treat it like that.

I like my skin too much to do that stuff.

My father-in-law had a saying:

^^  THOSE BOYS ARE ATE UP WITH THE DUMBASS!!  ^^
All my best ideas get me into trouble.

I am reminded of the immortal words of Socrates when he said, 'I drank what?!'

Some people are like Slinkies ... Not really good for anything..... But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Where I'm from, a squid had nothing to do with what you were wearing. I first heard the phrase 'that kid is a squid' at a dirtbike track when a rider took up 105% of the track (went off and came back on a couple of times), and it meant he was 'all over the place' and a 'novice rider thinking he had advanced skills'.

My definition has always been 'rides like an idiot', not looks like an idiot. I bet a ton of you guys look like idiots to somebody (I know I certainly do too).

The videos of people trying to stoppie/endo or wheelie and crashing sum it up pretty good, but I also include anybody who crawls around a turn, then nails the throttle on the straights. - 30mph indicated curve, and they are going 30 (I want to be going 50 or more so I get to lean wwaaaaayy over) and then on the straight away they hit a hundy or more....

If you can go that fast in the straights, maybe time to practice the curves?
