He is literally the most chill guy - I watch him all of the time. That woman is crazy and I hope her bosses see it. I am going to guess she is a pain in the ass constantly and people loathe working with her.

He gets so many people like this. It’s because he works in DC. You can’t make it anywhere in that hell hole without thinking your shit doesn’t stink. Entitlement and corruption in equal measure

u/Slumunistmanifisto Aug 04 '26

Mental illness can be contagious with enough time and pressures.

u/Accomplished_Job_331 Aug 05 '26

And normalization

u/LimpIndignation Aug 05 '26

It's like a diamond

u/XaoticOrder Aug 05 '26

And the lead. Anyone born before 1975 has major lead poisoning. Anyone born after than to 1997 has the possibility of minor lead poisoning. Lead poisoning leads to cognitive slow down, loss of emotional control. reduced brain function, Alzheimers. And it gets worse with age even if you are no longer exposed to lead.

u/probablyatargaryen Aug 05 '26

I recently learned that lead is stored in the bones, as the body’s protection mechanism. And then guess what dissolves as we age…leaking the lead back into the bloodstream

u/XaoticOrder Aug 05 '26

Yep. there a lot of data out there that says more than half our country has lead poisoning and it's getting worse as they age. Feels like something that should be talked about more but the media is complacent.

u/ImNotAHouseCat Aug 05 '26

Instead we just keep electing the ones with the worst cases 🤦🏻‍♀️

u/RectoPimento Aug 05 '26

Well shit, so maybe my post-menopause craziness isn’t just hormone depletion.

u/JuanWall Aug 05 '26

whats weird is i just watched like 20 vids on his page and he really does not get that many people like this? people he talks to are pretty cool almost universally on the channel. people in dc are pretty chill, capitol hill isnt dc....there's like 20,000 people that work on cap hill and the daytime population of dc is 1,200,000.

I watch his videos and he encounters asshole security guards, receptionists and doormen all the time. It's just not the entirety of his content, there's lots of chill videos too.

u/ThunderAndWind Aug 05 '26

So he encounters people in professions that frequently deal with entitled or otherwise hard to deal with people?

I've seen the average door dasher at restaurants, there's no shortage of shitty entitled behavior from them either. Not saying this guy in particular is one of those people, but there's more dynamics than just 'dc people are assholes'.

u/HereWeFuckingGooo Aug 05 '26

Good thing I never said that.

u/Actual_Noodle Aug 05 '26

god. I can only imagine if my doctor treated me like a junkie for having an adderall prescription just because last month someone tried to get him to write a prescription without a diagnosis

u/filthy_harold Aug 05 '26

DC has a lot of homeless people and heightened security relative to other big cities, the guards at the desks and doormen are very strict about who goes in. So when a guy on a bike, especially one that's black and isn't exactly well dressed (no offense but bikingdc looks like a bum lol), shows up wanting to come inside an office building, they get antsy. Of course the responsible thing to do when ordering lunch is to go meet the guy at the door but people are lazy and don't pay attention to their app so very often this guy is waiting out front or in the lobby slowly pissing off the guard by just existing in a place he shouldn't be. Most of the time they are chill, he's a food delivery guy, he knows he's not supposed to go where he's not allowed but some get nasty with him. And when the customer doesn't show or says "just leave it with the guard", he'll try to leave it with the guard and it's usually a "no". This is expected, DC has a history of suspicious packages so no one is going to accept a random bag or let him leave it there even if it looks legit (actual package deliveries go to a mail room, not the lobby). This is especially true at federal buildings. And the nasty people get even more nasty when he asks to leave it.

Most of his videos are fun and there's always some random person saying hi but there's plenty of just asshole guards being assholes.

u/kwisatzhadnuff Aug 05 '26

How tf does BikingDC look like a bum? Just because he’s got alternative style? Should he be wearing a suit or something?

u/JJay9454 Aug 05 '26

Right?

Dude's got his fit on, hair and face look trimmed, skin is clean af. He looks fresh!

u/JuanWall Aug 06 '26

lol i was a bike courier in dc when i was 21 and i looked like an actual bum. he looks great!

u/WhereRabbit Aug 05 '26

Honestly, yes. And, if he wants to.

Psychologically, when all the people you see inside the building (while you’re working your shift) are well dressed, suits, etc: the people outside of the building (the homeless, the busy) are often all lumped into one generalized group.

u/JJay9454 Aug 05 '26

Homeboy really said delivery drivers should wear suits 😂

u/WhereRabbit Aug 05 '26

Where in my comment did I say those words, christ almighty

u/JJay9454 Aug 05 '26

Lol

Bait used to be beliavable

You're telling me you cant scroll? 😂

u/WhereRabbit Aug 05 '26

Honestly, yes (he does look like a bum)
And, if he wants to (wear a suit, that’s his choice)

You won’t make it far being so hostile all the time, big guy

Yeah most of it is positive. The person you're responding to is talking out of his ass or just remembers the negative ones... Going as far as calling it corruption, wtf.

u/jeezy_peezy Aug 05 '26

I’ve lived all over the place and DC is the single worst area Ive ever lived and it’s not even close. The food was amazing but the people were the absolute worst. Tired, cranky, disillusioned, prejudiced. Idk what’s in the water there but people fucking AGE in that place.

u/Decent_Mango_5909 Aug 05 '26

Depends on the circles you associate with

u/jeezy_peezy Aug 05 '26

I had cool enough friends, but the people in general were cold and mean. I grew up in the Midwest where people are warm and helpful.

Eventually I moved to Colorado with some friends from New Jersey and one of them was quite offended at how “nice” these people are, as if it’s a bad thing - like they were being manipulative or disingenuous. Like people shouldn’t be nice unless they know you first? Idk but I’m not a fan of the east coast, and DC was like the pinnacle of the negativity.

Some people say Massachusetts people (Massholes) are the worst, but I think they’re so cranky that it comes full circle to become funny and endearing. Same way with hurried New Yorkers. DC people just seemed bitter to me.

u/Decent_Mango_5909 Aug 05 '26

I think people here are generally just honest. I have lived here for most of my life, but I was in the military so I bopped around the whole country. Lived just about in every region at some point.

u/iRVKmNa8hTJsB7 Aug 05 '26

I dunno, the people I interact with in DC are pretty nice

u/KelzThrow Aug 05 '26

This is more of a self report than an indictment of the city.

u/Barbaracle Aug 05 '26

I've lived in the US for over 30 years and the only time I've ever had someone racially prejudice me was when I spent 9 days in DC, by another PoC. Most of everyone else was nice enough if not boiled alive by the summer heat.

u/GeneralSweetz Aug 05 '26

Damn that's my people I should be there

u/Ughhhhhhhh17 Aug 05 '26

I also hated my two years there. It’s nice if you’re rich. It’s a dump otherwise. Food was okay imo. It’s good if you have enough money to go to the nice places

u/TruesteelOD Aug 05 '26

I have lived in DC for the last decade and you haven't got a clue. City is genuinely filled with nice, career motivated people who typically got into their work because they wanted to make a difference.

u/Iggyhopper Aug 05 '26 edited Aug 05 '26

But the mans got receipts.

Both can be true. I do a lot of facebook marketplace and the only reason I avoid DC are the confusing streets and limited parking, not the people.

u/Spectrum1523 Aug 05 '26

one video of a nasty person doesn't really mean receipts does it

u/Iggyhopper Aug 05 '26

He gets so many people like this.

It's the first sentence, further up the chain.

u/Alternative_Draw5945 Aug 05 '26

Is this the guy who bikes around and does food delivery? The same one that was riding with no hands and ran into someone injuring them?

Dude is a known asshole in DC and posts the rage bait delivery videos for a living...

u/Spectrum1523 Aug 05 '26

Oh yeah, that seems to not actually be true tho

u/LunarPayload Aug 05 '26

The confusing streets?? The streets are in alphabetical order from the Capital outwards North/South, and in numerical order outwards East/West. The city is on a grid,  with the state streets running on a diagonal 

u/Iggyhopper Aug 05 '26

I don't mean the layout, I mean the function. When you go into new areas, it can be confusing. If you miss a turn, the next 4 turns are all one ways, good luck! If you get in the wrong lane of a two lane turn, awesome you need to merge over because people park in a driving lane, but only at certain hours or days. I saw parking spaces with three different signs for three different sets instructions regarding when you can park. There are so many conditional rules it makes my head spin how anyone just accepts it.

My last trek took me down an alley that is somehow classified as a street on google maps, has room for only one car to pass through at a time, but isn't one way.

u/jah_broni Aug 05 '26

It's almost like its a city

u/Iggyhopper Aug 05 '26

You nailed it. Anything else?

u/Humble-Violinist6910 Aug 05 '26

Seriously, I feel like this person only goes to a few specific places in DC. Like, I've heard the State Department is full of people like this. Lobbyists and consultants too. But I doubt your everyday business, nonprofit, or normal government agency is full of psychos.

u/filthy_harold Aug 05 '26

Everyone in the DC area is less than 3 steps away from someone in government. You either work for the government, work for a contractor that works for the government, or your clients are people that work for contractors or the government.

u/KitaChiquita Aug 05 '26

This is simply not true lol. At least not for every neighborhood.

u/SpeaksSouthern Aug 05 '26

DC is a swamp. Not just physically.

u/FarmerDark Aug 05 '26

Hey now! I’m from DC.

And your completely right

u/PracticeTheory Aug 05 '26

D.C. also suffers from extreme levels of wealth disparity.

My brother moved out there and lived for some years. There's a decent amount of crime, a lot of people hustling to survive. Layers and pockets of people that have been failed by the government for a long time. That kind of environment hardens hearts.

u/ProfessionalITPerson Aug 04 '26

When so many people behave strangely around you there are two explanations. Either you yourself are having problems and may be an instigator, or you are in a strange place, but it's mostly both.

I see this guy a lot on my shots feed and he is pretty borderline at many times.

u/abriefmomentofsanity Aug 05 '26

Yeah I like most of his content but there have definitely been a lot of weird "why did he say that/handle it that way" type moments. To be fair you keep a camera on yourself while you work you're going to catch some weird shit. Hell if anything I respect him leaving some of that stuff in to show the raw experience (yeah I know there's cuts). Still I dunno. Honestly watching him spin people's food on its own makes me think he isn't exactly the best at his job. Even if you can, you probably shouldn't

u/ProfessionalITPerson Aug 05 '26

Yea, delivering pizzas, only in the box spinning them on his finger while biking is a big no no, I wonder how many complains Uber gets for cold pizza due to his deliveries.
He should have a box bad like all other people, to keep the food warm/cold. and stop spinning and balancing peope food.

u/abriefmomentofsanity Aug 05 '26

Honestly just on statistics alone there has to be a bunch of times he has dropped shit and cut it. Peyton Manning fumbles a ball now and then too

u/Humble-Violinist6910 Aug 05 '26

I've seen him get mad for legitimate reasons, like a car almost hitting him in the bike lane or a person trying to run some scam on the food delivery app or whatever. He may lose his temper sometimes, but he didn't start this fight--he was clearly joking.

u/ThomasTheDankPigeon Aug 04 '26

So you see someone with a social media account full of confrontational and aggressive people, and your first thought is that “he gets it all the time” as opposed to “he’s faking these interactions for clout”?

u/KaleidoscopePlusPlus Aug 05 '26

Stop for a second and think. How does a delivery person have the budget to orchestrate the scenes, actors and sets required for something like that? If you have ever worked in customer service you would know people are genuinely like this .

u/ThomasTheDankPigeon Aug 05 '26

How about you stop and think? He’s not a delivery person, he’s an influencer. His job is tricking you into thinking people are like this.

I have worked plenty of customer service and delivery jobs. Shitty people like this lady absolutely exist. They do not exist in volumes sufficient for one person to sustain an online viewership.

u/USERNAME_BUT_LOUDER Aug 05 '26

Lol his online content isn't mainly people getting upset or anything like that.

It's delivering food on a bicycle.

Because he is...a delivery person...

u/kencheetoo Aug 05 '26

You seem very confident that he is faking his interactions, so why don't you tell us how he is doing it. Also just so you know, I checked his YouTube channel in the past month he posted 6 shorts, 2 of them about negative interactions.

u/parolameasecreta Aug 05 '26

just go outside for a bit and look at people. they be weeeeeird as shit. life is not an anime, my dude
