Why do they always say that ?

    And there is always:

    "What type of bike do you have?"

    You reply ... and then follows:

    "Oh, okay, I don't know anything about bikes"

    SO WHY DID YOU ASK!?!

    heh, yeah, I get that too. More amusing is when they ask that
    question and you reply "Well, I've got three, actually"

    Or "four".

    And then they say: "why do you need more than one?" mostly followed by
    the attempted humour of "you can only ride one at a time, you know" - as
    if that thought hadn't crossed one's mind.

    And normally from a person who owns more than one car.

    Anoraks work by learning everything there is to know about the most obscure,
    tedious subjects, and then regurgitating the fruits of their scholarship at
    interminable length on social occasions.

    Me, I just say "I'm drier than I would be if I'd walked from the bus stop."

    Not "I'm drier than a Nun"?

    Or maybe.. "I'm drier than a Nun's priest hole"

    Hmm... that doesn't work. Wait a mo.

    "I'm drier than a choirboy's priest hole"

    That's more like it but, well the imagery doesn't work as well.
