I was messin' , I know the program.
I also read the thread about the selling of the "cut" for the program and the trouble that could lead to.
We do have TV in Ireland even if we do have to put turf in the back of them... LOL
A friend of mine(not a biker) watched it and the bits he found real, I thought were crap and the bits he thought were far fetched I thought were kinda realistic.
I did enjoy it though and look forward to the next season but it is only enterteinment.
And yes I hate the question, "are you with the sons?"
I get it a fair bit because I have a tattoo of a grime reaper on my left fore arm.
I usually find the best way to answer is with something smart like;
"Are you joking, I am with the fathers"
"No, I am more of a champion of chaos"
"Anarchy" shouting loudly "third door on the left"
"No, I am a son of a bitch"
"Why are you looking for your real father.....OH! SON!" and give them a big hug, usually they are horrified.
"Are you suffering from verbal diarrhea, cuase you are talkin' sh!t"
That does not worry me, what worries me and really gets to me is the ordinary dude who decides he is going to have to prove how tough he is in front of his other half.
Or
Indeed the clean cut new motorcyclist wants to impress his mates by picking on the hairy, dusty and hungover biker who is just looking to be left alone, actually I think these are worse.
I did read a very funny story in a bike mag that told of some bloke who slagged off a biker as he walked into a bar shouting at him;
"Who do you think you are one of them sons of anarchy?"
The biker without breaking stride lifted him off his barstool with one punch and said "No! Sons of Silence"
I thought it was brilliant, betcha he won't be asking the next biker the same question. LOL !
