You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Now with 3x more gears...

Nah

[btimbit]

I must really be missing some context if this is a thing you 've held on to for 10 years. Is there more to the story?

It was obviously passive, and weak. She hasn't thought about this or the weird little guy who swore at her since, you've been harbouring it for a decade. I'd be beyond embarrassed if my dad acted like that on one our team trips growing up and it would probably be the last trip the parent would be allowed on in any offical role as an adult.

More people need to be called out harshly for mildly shi*** behaviour. It’s a great deterrent for people being slightly dick-ish

[ResAlien]

I've not flown recently but what's the gay safety spiel? They teaching about using PrEP and protection while flying the apparently not so friendly skies?

I’ve been taking great pleasure in doing this with cyclists riding up behind me on mildly populated sidewalks where there’s a perfectly good bike lane nearby. Don’t ding your fecking bell at me, GTFO the sidewalk.

A larger than normal number of cyclists on the pathways lately riding side by side, encroaching well over the center line GMG

And as Locke says, why does it matter? Modern Germans aren't Nazis(except the neo-nazis, but those exist most everywhere white people are). That's the point here, not your kindergarten level understanding of reality, history, and language.


And yes, if I get a ban for calling a dumb #### a dumb ####, I'll take it, because it's worth it to call out this garbage. This is thinly veiled anti-semitism, and while I'm only a Jew in ethnicity, I'm not going to sit back and have what my family went twisted and prodded by a guy who's only contribution to the forum is judging people about shoes and clothes. I'm sure Peter is clicking that report post button faster than a toddler on a Simple Simon, though perhaps with less accuracy. Sorry mods.

Along those lines I was downtown this week and saw a pedestrian try to cross with the do not walk sign lit up. This jabroni didn’t look for cars either and before he took a step off the sidewalk a car turned in front of him. He threw up his hands and happened to look at me. Out of instinct I laughed at him and called out “dumbass”.

It was harsher than it needed to be, but pretty funny.

I had someone try to cross 5 Street against the light while I had a green left-turn onto 12 Ave and my V8V going full-bore to make the turn light scared her ass back onto the sidewalk. “Not your turn yet!” Most satisfying stink-eye I’ve ever received. Of course now I feel obliged to point out that I would never intentionally hit a pedestrian or even put myself in a position where that’s a possibility.

After all, good paint jobs are expensive.

I still regret not doing anything 10 years later.

I would've just started crying and said "where is my baseball!??"

Can’t wait to hear you retell this in 10 years.

“So I called him a POS!!!”
“What for?”
“He told me verbally abusing women was for losers!!!”

And everybody clapped.

It's how to werk the life-vest look in case of a water landing. You still have to slay, even if bobbing up and down.


As for the rest of this thread, and a few others (looking at you, Rumours thread in FOI) - I know we're in the dog days right now, but we're almost at the point of throwing folks in the sin bin until the season starts...yeesh.
