Took a little offence to the fixed gear thing, I have a fixed gear bike, it was bought new and cheap, rides well, is fantastic in traffic, except near the pavement riding past a car since it can hit the pavement, but I know I can fix any component on it (ie diskbrakes) and it's very responsive.
I'm definitely not a hipster, so maybe it's an age thing, I like the simplicity of certain things, don't like multi-tasking in my free time and believe in single purpose items wherever possible, like my bedroom doesn't have a tv, I don't read emails or chat online while watching tv, etc.
While I don't think it'd be great for typos and such I feel this would be a good way of getting the material down as a first draft ? Like a programmer coding, but continuously working out a better way to do it and going back to fix / refactor etc, there's just no forward progression or completion on the horizon.
