No, it ain't. I've changed flat tires on cars, trucks, and bicycles -
both my own, and once, a young man I met wheeling his bike down a trail
in the woods. He had a pump and a patch kit but no idea how to use
them. The pump was set for schrader and he was running prestas, and the
tire was slashed in addition to the puncture to the tube.

I patched the tube, switched the pump to presta, used a dollar bill as a
boot inside the tire to keep the tube from herniating out through the
slash and sent him on his way after extracting a promise to learn to fix
a flat. Considering how embarrassed he was at having a middle-aged
woman fix a flat for him, I'd be willing to be he followed through.

Yup. Or, in my case, 8 lbs 9 ounces and 8 lbs 10 ounces, respectively.
And the second one was a couple of weeks early, for which I am
eternally grateful (this is the one who's 156 lbs and 6 feet tall at 14
years old).

Just filter him. The occasional lucid post is in no way, shape or form
worth the continual spew of hatefulness.
