Yes, actually that’s really common practice in all states. Out of staters are always tagged more for infractions because their far less likely to try to fight it in court and more likely to just pay the fine.
- Comment on laughs in 12 hours, while still driving through texas 1 week ago:
lived there for 3 years
So you’re saying the shitty Texas cops would treat out of state drivers differently?

I’m not going to defend the number provided, but I will notw that many health authorities state that Vaping substantially less harmful than smoking. Smoking kills 1 in 2 people per that linked article. If vaping takes it down to less than 2 in 100 people, their percentage would have weight.
- Comment on Nostalgia 2 weeks ago:
You’re pulling in smoke
Saying it’s less harmful is just a blatant example of self-gaslighting
You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the whole process, and your opinion should be discarded as the ignorant rambling it is.

At least you have Tarantino movies.
- Comment on Tiddies are nice but the metric system is better 3 weeks ago:
I gotta say, I absolutely hate the way data storage is notated. Because colloquially, a _giga_byte is 1024 MB, but that’s actually a _gibi_byte, and a proper _giga_byte is only actually 1000 MB.
So storage sellers are technically accurate when they say they’re giving you a 1000 gigabytes of storage, but your operating system shows gibibytes as gigabytes, so you don’t actually have as much as you think.

I remember growing up with AOL and being stuck on the kiddie mode.
I also remember the day I figured out that I was t actually stuck on kiddie mode and I could use Netscape and browse the Internet directly. Sooo many tiddies seen at one line of pixels at a time…

This is pretty much what I’m looking at if I get hurt at work. At best I can get 60% of my normal take home, or if I pay like 50-100+ more, I can get a whole 6.67% more! Totally worth it! /s

Lol, ok. Whatever kid. Keep wallowing in your anger and lashing out, it really makes people give a fuck about your ignorance about how other countries work.
And no, I won’t fuck off with my well wishes. I genuinely hope things work out for you, you hateful asshole.
Good day, I’m done listening to your impotent and childish anger.
- Comment on A Fediverse genre of Guy 4 weeks ago:
Russia is kidnapping children and re-educating them, which is basically point 5 of article 2 on the definition from the convention on prevention of genocide.
That’s not watering down the term, that’s literally using the word to describe what they’re doing.
- Comment on Americans have no one else to blame but themselves 4 weeks ago:
The problems in American culture directly flow from conservatives, so the problems in our culture are also downstream of politics. Conservatives ended reconstruction, whipped up the populous into an anti-communism fervor, and helped push evangelicalism into the mainstream, all of which have real and massive impacts to this day.
The failure to follow through with the reconstruction allowed racism to cement it’s hold on the south, and the lost cause myth has helped spread that rot across the country. The push for anti-communism rotted the American psyche and helped push us to the hyper-capitalist consoomer mindset where everyone is encouraged to get that badly however possible. Evangelicalism has been the vehicle used over the last half to full century to steer the culture; look at how they turned abortion into a culture war from nothing in under a decade. That same playbook is in active use today against transgender people, and it’s the exact same one they used against the gays a few decades ago.

No, you’re n asshole for attacking people who fucking try to change things. I’m not my government, just like you’re not yours.
Maybe you should grow the fuck up and gain a modicum of empathy instead of being a dick to people based on where they were born and live with 0 other context? Or you can continue being the worst kind of Internet person and wallow in your unwarranted hatred of random individual people, I’m not your dad, thankfully

Well then have fun with that

I voted to minimize genocide vs you staying home and let the genocide in chief win.
I don’t give a fuck what you have to say, strategic voting could have saved lives, but your poor widdle ego doesn’t want to hear that.

Edit for all the moron than think politics are an integral part of wharamer juste replace wharamer with full metal jacket and how it was meant to show war ks horrible and the audience got the message thebmilitarybis cool.
I always love the irony of someone being called stupid in a borderline illiterate response.
Especially when you’re completely uninformed about the history of “wharamer”

- Comment on Philips shouldn't exist. Torx plus is the best fight me 2 months ago:
I’ve rocked a JIS phillips for years, and it works better on ‘regular’ phillips screws than a standard driver does. I’ve actually used that to salvage a screw that was damned near stripped by a standard driver. I stilil have to use my extraction set more often than not when that happens, but it has saved me a few times.
- Comment on "No precedent in American history!" NYT would have defended child labor. 2 months ago:
Health insurance in this country is absolutely fucking stupid… I went with the HDHP this year after trying the ‘premium’ option from my workplace last year, and holy fuck, the HDHP actually costs LESS than paying for the higher tier plans. It’s fucking awful that I have to pay 10k before my shit is covered, but I still spend less overall on this plan.

I was really worried that this was going to end with “I don’t like them because they got political” and I’m glad it didn’t.
I wish I could say that it was just a meme, but I’ve literally had conversations where I have had to ask some brainless chud what machine he thought they were raging against, or what forces they thought might have been the ones burning crosses.
