ok, your lid, the one you love to death, no matter what it is, it's broken into your head, got your battle scars on it. if someone came up to you and wanted to use it, would you let them?

Re: would you let someone use your lid?
depends on the situation...it would have to be some serious circumstances, like a race or competition, and their own helmet just got written off...but this one dude put my helmet on at a party when i wasn't looking. he had a fat head and stretched out my helmet. basically turned into a spare, cause it was waaaay too big for me afterwards. since then, no one uses my lid.

ya, about the loner helmets, we aren't talking about those. i have those for a reason, those are for other people to wear cause i don't like seeing people without helmets. but your own lid.
the sweaty thing is also something, i don't want to share someone elses sweat in that helmet, and the stretching thing. if you wear the helmet all the time, it's kinda formed to the shape of your head, someone goes and stretches it out, it doesn't fit right. i had that happen on my last helmet cause some dumbass with an XL head thought it would be funny to put my helmet on when we were stopped getting some food....thanks, just ruined my helmet for me.
also, if it's just another person, not one of your close friends, you act as if they will pay for it if they drop it. i would say maybe 1 person in my life has actually replaced something of mine they broke while ****ing around...most people are just like "oops my bad, i'll pay for it" then end up disappearing or never paying for it.

It was a nice mint piece, let a buddy ride it. Next thing I know I've got a $6000 hunk of twisted metal

Like two weeks ago me and my bros were at wendys eating lunch. We started to leave and some crackhead came up to me and said,"YO Dog is that yo yella bike!" ....Yeah man...."You wanna cop YOself a new helmet?"...what kind?..."I dunno? a yella wun"...How much?..."10 Dolla!" Go get it...."Aight, gimme 5 minutes DOG!"
He came back with a nice yellow HJC. It was a small and it had a little rash on the front. But now we have a community HO helmet. I just tell them the story and that it might have crabs in it or something.
My friends can use my good one if they want!
