going to a transexual massage parlor
I just got a fist full of dollars from the race tracks so I'm going to the flower shop!
A large strip mall in Agoura Hills, CA that acts as the "shopping mall" of the area. Mainly because the mall companies wouldn't be caught dead building an actual mall in this crappy of an area. It is full of stores and businesses that closedown within a week either because of horrible business management, crushing business taxes, or shoplifted blind by the wannabe-gangsta kids of the neighborhood. During the day it is crowded with brainless girls doing tik-toks with Starbucks in hand, and at night it's crowded with the wannabe-gangstas that go to Agoura High and drunk college kids (that don't even live ANYWHERE in the area) that throw bottles at you if you get too close. (Speaking from experience).
"Did you hear what happened at the twin oaks shopping center?"
"Was there a fire? Did someone get shot? Just tell me all ready..."
Slang for an experienced bike mechanic.
It takes several years to become a shop rat. Only after spending thousands of hours building bikes, building wheels, rebuilding suspension forks and shocks, setting up derailleurs, replacing bottom brackets, rebuilding hubs, matching chainrings/cranksets/cassettes, and bleeding every type of hydraulic brake system does one become a shop rat.
A shop rat is the guy/gal you want to talk to about your bike's issues. They've seen every possible problem a million times over and know how to fix it professionally and quickly. They also know secret repair tricks that you'll never find in a service manual or on YouTube.
The opposite of a Tool Box Ted.
I spent 10 years as a shop rat in a Colorado bike shop.
The main Pinkbike guys all used to be shop rats for something like 10+ years before their current jobs.
Window shopping and posting it on social media.
I saw him/her pixel shopping in Gucci on Instagram
A bucket shop is a company that sells a coat of arms usually with the inaccurate name of "family crest" associated with the customer's surname nonetheless if the customer in question can claim a link to the original armiger. You can often tell if a coat of arms is from a bucket shop by looking if it has the customer's surname in the motto scroll instead of a real motto.
Tim Johnson unknowingly bought a bucket shop coat of arms associated with his surname Johnson off a family crest website.
I like the Johnny Johnny cupcake shop
