I hate them, I burningly but impotently hate them.

First the fucking retards destroyed all the paths along the rivers here by replacing them with bike paths, which by itself already made riding there on a bike worse, but it made the fucking niggerfaggotkike rollerbladers pollute it, taking up the entire fucking road with goddamn heaphones on their hollow heads so they don't even hear me shouting slurs at them from behind to move to the fucking side whenever I'm cursed into having to used one of those fucking paths god fucking damn it
 
they're really fun to wear at conventions or other "walk to one end of the room and back and stop sporadically" stuff
 
What's wrong with rollerblades? Have some fun in your life you autistic fucks
Right?

I remember one time I was at school and there was a kid there with with those shoes that have the wheels in the heel. So she could just be walking and then all of a sudden skip to flick the wheels out and then just glide everywhere, like a majestic ice-skater or something. I remember thinking it was the coolest and most graceful thing ever. That girl was probably the coolest person I'd ever met. I wanted to be her friend so badly.

But then my lunch break was over and I had to get back to the office.
 
Do people even rollerblade anymore? Come to think of it, I don't think I've seen anybody wear them since like the early 2000's, right around the time those wheel shoes came out. Regardless, just seems like a ridiculous thing to get upset about.

In the UK they're called 'Heelies'. I've looked and they only do them for kids. My ex had feet small enough to buy some, I have man feet and couldn't get any. 100% no joke, as a grown man I would wear Heelies. It looks fun.
 
The wheel was invented to make transport easier and faster, and much of our modern infrastructure is built with wheels in mind. The most efficient way for a pedestrian to move, then, would be to put wheels on their feet. That's why.
 
I should replace the wheels on mine and go back out. I love rollerblading.

I always liked the derogatory term "fruitbooter" to describe bladers.
I've only ever skated on the old style skates like from the 70s, with four wheels in sets of twos tandem. What a nightmare
