Children have such a weird aversion to wearing a helmet. I remember when I was in middle school school, other kids used to leave their helmets in a bush by their house so their parents wouldn’t find out and then pick them back up on the way home.

Those same kids grow up to wear sleeveless T shirts, wrap around sunglasses and drive a Dodge RAM.
