Fat guy who rides a bike and just so happens goes to the same school and the same work place as me (just recently) bummed a ride today. I don't care to give a guy a ride bit I'm cringing at what he'll do to my car. I also have a feeling he's going to ask again, and again, and again. Fuck, I know I'm going to have to flat out say no next time he asks because he's the type that constantly bums stuff off people. I never got in his sights before cause we didn't work togather, now we do and now he's trying to be buddie buddie with me. I also believe the saying "A friend in need is a pain in the ass." I don't give a damn if it's raining or if your bike got stolen, buy another bike or get a fvcking car!  


Think I'm getting setup to make an asshole move the equivelant of making a pregnant woman cry at hooters.

I had a friend who never had a ride.  30 years old, and never owned his own vehicle.  We had a 45 minute one way commute to work every day.

At first I didn't mind at all, but after about a month, of every morning and every afternoon, I said something about him chipping in on gas money.  His response was, "Well you have to drive it anyway, wether I'm with you or not, so why should I have to pay?"

The next morning I didn't show up to pick him up.

Hand him a stack of "cars for sale" ads without saying anything if you don't want to haul him around.  Otherwise, lay down the cost for riding with you; make it 80% or 100% of your out of pocket cost.

Every time he bums a ride, hit him up for $20 worth of gas.

Say you were HOPING he was going to ask for a ride because you need gasoline and fair is fair!

Nobody can take advantage of you without your permission, a one time ride is fine, but if he tries to take advantage of you, tell him you don't mind helping him out from time to time, but he needs to make other arrangements.
