(March 30, 2010 at 8:03 pm)RedFish Wrote: I'm always surprised at the antropomorphization of machines. My friends do it, referring to a motorcycle as a 'she', and thereby assigning it a gender, and a species. It's ludicrous, one guy called a bike 'vince' cos it had vnc in the licence no. They have 'anima', but nothing more.
I'll accept any animal as a person, so long as it asks me to. Dog

Having lived with motorcycles I know what they are on about.

Tho I refrain from giving them names.
