I guess they live a sheltered life at Gizmoto... Even though they are so transparent, there have been lots of these photos for years...

This is one that has been in our own gallery for over 3 years, and it was not the first year I did this...

So, are your kids fat and lazy, Karl?

No? Somehow I didn't think so.

But guess who I think is too lazy to think before posting? You got it -- Gizmodo. As I've gradually come to understand where they're coming from -- I've come to avoid clicking on links that might take me to their sites.

What a bunch of pathetic loser bullies.

Holy cow, that's three anti-Segway stories out of Gizmodo in the past two weeks, do they seriously have nothing better to do than inflame the Segway hate?

Do we have nothing better to do than complain about Gizmodo and other so-called technology journalists?

This is a segway enthusiasts site, and they are slandering us. It is a legitimate topic. Ignoring them does not make them stop. Ignoring them does not make their lies true.

Have a nice day.

Well then hip hip hooray! Yay Segways! Gosh I love my segway so much. Discussing Gizmodo doesn't make them stop either. Discussing engadget does not show them they are wrong. I need a new sig.

Obviously, we can't have infinite voltage, or the universe would tear itself to shreds, and we wouldn't be discussing Segways.

I love both Gizmodo and my Segway, so I naturally delve into the comments when I see a Segway post. Although there a few douchebag Segway haters, the greater majority of the comments do not seem to be necessarily antio Segway. In fact, I would say that the most common sentiment is that they would buy one if they could afford it. And we all know that 90% of the negativity is just thinly disguised jealousy...
