i dont get what's so gay about it, i used to be pretty into scootering, so i guess it will always seem sorta cool to me even though i skate now, but its just the fact that it came after skating and biking that it looks ridiculous. if you think about skateboarding or fruit booting, those are pretty stupid too. riding around on a piece of wood with wheels attached or shoes with wheels are both pretty dumb, but they seem sick cuz they came first.
