Lying to CNN

The article is here, but I'm more writing about the caption on the above picture.

Check it. She kinda looks like MIA. That' what got me to click, I frankly didn't care too much about the upswing of bikers due to rising fuel costs. although that's pretty important, I suppose. However, the point of the post is that she lied...rather exaggerated to get on CNN.com.

No way that bike cost $100.

I don' think CNN would have been so keen on featuring her if she had been like, oh yeah, my handlebars were $100, and the frame another $400, and then the rest of the components got me in at a cool seven-hundo....

Who does she think she's kidding? Not us. Everyone here (with exception of myself) has a bike and therefore knows what one costs...I am assuming knowledge from having been to Brooklyn, even living there for a period of time.

Nonetheless, I'd still make out with her, I'd just expect her to exaggerate proportionally when she tells her friends about my performance...
