I get it, I fit it, and I’m sitting right now. NO DAMNED BUMP! It’s against the whimsical suggestions. ---

Ever since I first saw a [whymcycle](https://localwiki.org/davis/WhymCycles/_files/whym6.jpg/_info/), I’ve wondered how tiring it would be to ride one. It’s propelled by bouncing on the running board, which turns the back wheel. So that you bump along. ---

We got rain! Not enough to be a bother, just enough that I don’t need to water. Bump. ---

Is it a consequence of the hurricane, or are you nowhere near that? We’re getting soggy but not really rained on here, which is sorta good news (he bumped.) ---

Not a hurricane but violent sprays from my pressure washer which was like a hurricane to a little green frog and an anole and several bugs. And a bumpbumpbump ---

I’m in northern California, so I’d have to look for big weather maps to see if it’s got anything to do with the big storm down south. Also - the high today is only 77F! Woot! Will not have to pay for AC. Bump. ---

They’re saying that the hurricane might make it as far north as the Canadian Atlantic provinces. Bump. ---

Ex-New Yorker here. Mention Nova Scotia and I think of smoked salmon… It’s almost October, which means even more aggressively marketed pumpkin everything. Bleah. That was worth bumping the not-to-be-bumped thread, no? ---
