    He thinks they were put there by a concerned citizen frustrated by the bad driving habits of their fellow, uh, Bouldarians(?). No, Google says people from Boulder are called “Boulderites.” I don’t like that. Bouldarians is better.

    Suddenly, the article’s author, with a steel chair! I guess, rereading, the whole article’s pretty casual, but I just wasn’t expecting the first person pov.

          Boulderites are like top 10 in the nation in fitness. That’s where Olympic athletes go to train, because of the low air density. Boulderites aren’t typical Americans. Source: grew up in boulder and live in a Midwest hellscape.
