Squid: ['Noun'] {slang, generally considered derogatory} is an irresponsible motorcyclist; generally associated with a new or reckless motorcyclist seen riding erratically and/or beyond his or her capabilities often without appropriate riding gear.
seems to be a pretty accurate description of a squid

""You're speed is limited by:

When you hit the horn button, people

[c] think it's a runaway semi hauling fertilizer.
[d] think it's the Apocalypse.
After their first ride on a motorcycle with you, your friend
[a] thanks you and compliments your skills.
looks like a stunned rabbit.
[c] files a civil complaint.
[d] eats your cat."

I took that test and got an 86. " Your score indicates that you are a fairly responsible motorcyclist but a bit of a wise-"O Ring""
BTW, that test is mentally challenged.. there are very few normal answers available. I don't disagree with the result... however, the wise-assedness is mostly directed towards the stupid questions and answers available. There is a reason the average # of questions answered is 47 out of 115...
