I,A is being sarcastic, not passive aggressive. Cyclists will be less pissed at drivers when they stop endangering our lives with their road rage and screaming that we have no right to be on the road. Anon is right, taking the high road usually doesn't work with dangerous, aggressive assholes who are breaking the law.
If there is no shoulder or bike lane then yes, I'll take the lane. If I dare try to hug the curb every oversized tank on the road will try to squeeze me out of the lane and come within inches of a serious hospital visit. If it's the only lane then I'll be on the sidewalk trying to avoid the cars pulling out without looking. Either way, it's just like the arcade game Paperboy. Next time tell the guy his tail light is out.

You have a point. But as someone who walks a lot of places, I'll be less pissed at bicyclists when they stop running red lights (breaking the law) and nearly hitting me when I'm in a crosswalk (dangerous asshole). I know there are bad drivers and bad bikers (just as there are good ones of both), but you have to admit that you see way more bicyclists break road laws.
I also wish you guys would wreck more often every time you drink two pitchers of PBR and ride your bike drunk somewhere.
Don't take a whole lane on one of the city's primary arterial streets. Research some routes on more local streets, or ride on the sidewalk. If you are trying to ride on Broadway than YOU should be going as close to 30 mph as you can go, and if you can't go that fast, get off the road.
I dream of a world where all cycles are tricycles with streamers on the handle grips and little white baskets on the front. I wanna see those hairy legs furiously pumping away and going 3 MPH so bad. *sigh*
Don't ride on the fucking sidewalk! Every time I see a bicyclist on the sidewalk I want to fucking push them as hard as I can into a parked car. Same for skateboards. Feet on sidewalks, wheels on the street. Simple.

Move the fuck over.
