Man, what a bunch of newbie suck-ups. Nobody here knows anything. If bicycle knowledge was wool, you people couldn't knit a sweater for a fruit fly. What kind of loser would even look twice at a rusty old coaster bike? Why don't you get out of mommy's basement and do something productive? :banghead:
Hey, had you going for moment there, didn't I? 
I agree. The owner of one lbs here literally hates me because I chop and weld things. If it isn't a $2000 (insert name brand here) he doesn't care for it. I hosted a bicycle show in my town for 3 years straight and personally extended an invitation to him every year. He never showed. I see him at least once a week riding and he just shakes his head, as though a 1934 bicycle is some abomination. His Cannondales and Treks wouldn't be here without it.That's how you know someone loves the money more than the history or the principle. I suppose there's a bias there, us rat guys rarely need to spend money at the lbs. But a friend of mine has a modern bike shop/vintage bike museum, here in town. I've never purchased a single thing from him, and he doesn't seem to mind.
Fakeness is not a real word, which makes it all the more useful...the term serves as an example of itself. Common usage/social linguistics will pretty much guarantee its adoption into the official lexicon, eventually.
Hahahah.. Rite.!!!
