From you-know-who:

… Once again I also used the new cyclist and pedestrian bridge, which I’m now starting to realize is almost comically short:

It’s so short that, if you were on a Rivendell, by the time your rear wheel made it onto the bridge your front wheel would already be on the other side.

You know, because of the long wheelbase:

That’s called “Rivendell humor,” and it’s a niche within a niche within a niche.

And if you like Rivendell jokes, it’s a good thing I wasn’t riding the Platypus this time, because it probably exceeded the bridge’s weight limit."

When thou didst not, savage, know thine own meaning,

But wouldst gabble like a thing most brutish,

I endowed thy purposes with words that made them known.
