Yeah I'm the entitled asshole with my bike because I wanna go from A to B

Not the person who takes up 8 times as much space as me to transport the same or more often less cargo than me, poisons the air I breathe, pollutes my drinking water, endangers my life because they're busy reading texts or think their time is more valuable than everyone elses, uses my tax dollars to fund massive roads I'm not even allowed to use and, best of all, honks at me to get out of the way on the narrow streets I live on as if I'm the uninvited guest.

But one dude in spandex made you swerve a little some 2 years ago so go off queen

your not. but drivers thing anything/anyone that inconveniences them is 'entitled'

a lot of streets in my city are putting up speedbumps to stop people blowing down side streets at 40mph while trying to cut around main street traffic. drivers scream at how 'entitled' the residents are being. because the road is 'for them to go places as fast as possible'.

Lmao. Calling other people 'entitled' because they're an inconvenience to them. Sounds like entitlement to me.
