The verb has somewhat to do with subjective speed. Usain Bolt could jog alongside me while I'm in an all-out sprint (heck, he could probably walk beside meOriginally Posted by SadieKate
). That wouldn't mean I would be jogging.
The noun is just plain derogatory. It implies the person doesn't belong on the road. Which was pretty much the point of the OP...
I mean, seriously, I am about as insulated from advertising as an American can be, yet I was saturated with that "We Are Not Joggers" ad campaign. It was everywhere. Did you all miss it????
Anyway, this is exactly why I prefaced my request with the reminder that I'd been called out for using the word "cager."
