A large gathering of mostly douchebag hipsters that ride their bikes around the city on the last Friday of the month. Participants feel that since they ride bicycles, they are somehow superior and permitted to break traffic laws.

Get the critical mass mug.A monthly gathering of people to ride bikes around a city or town. Its general purpose is to raise awareness that people ride bikes for transportation too and roads should be more accomidating for bikes. With many cyclists riding together in a group they are able to reach a "critical mass" and become a powerful entity of the roads, taking up many lanes.
Invented in San Francisco, it is celebrated in many cities across the world due to its simplicity to organize, often all you need to is spread the word about it. In San Francisco and New York participants often number in the thousands. It is usually at the end of the day on the last Friday of every month, at a standard, well-known gathering spot.
Often criticized by motorists as a nuciance, though cyclists criticise back that motorists hog the road, pollute, kill, etc.

Get the hippie-critical mug.A variation of the doggy style position of anal intercourse, in which the bottom is on his hands and knees, and the top penetrates him from behind. Critter-style is specifically when an older top is particularly aggressive in power-fucking a younger bottom, for example grabbing him around the waist for deeper, harder, more controlled strokes. The bottom is not allowed to masturbate his cock and often ends up with his face pressed into the floor, begging for release. A perfect critter-style fuck is achieved when both partners achieve orgasm simultaneously. Purists insist that a perfect critter-style fuck should also be bareback.
