Dude, don't listen to them. It's fine.
if I had a short commute that didn't involve freeways, and if I was a tad ........ well lets say if I had a more sporty stature, I'd ride a scooter even if aigel laughed at me
But i have a long commute that's almost all freeways, and I'm too big to ride one. I'd dwarf a scooter like nobody's biddness.
Like riding in the back of a pick-up, there's no way I could do it and look cool.
PS I like the power rangers too
