OK - what's a bikeprime? Google couldn't help me.
- strstr 6y agoIt’s a rhetorical construct here: they mean a non-bike thing that also requires scraping your knees to learn.
- deedree 6y agoFrom the context I would say, the latest fad. The new hot thing, mode, rage, trend?
- ky3 6y agoIf the original bike was bike, then the next one is bike' (pronounced bike prime), and the one after that bike'' (bikeprimeprime), and so on. Compare the orthography to bike_0, bike_1, bike_2, etc.
- wes1350 6y agoProbably a reference to “priming” variables in mathematical contexts. You have variable x and then variable x’ comes up. Or you learn to ride a bike and then later on you’re supposed to figure out how to ride a bike’.
