It’s lame that you ask me that instead of asking it to the policing user I was replying to in parody.

So you’re the tailgating truck driver in this meme?
- Comment on Bruh, chill 10 hours ago:
Rude, safe, who’s to say.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 10 hours ago:
I find that people driving in the middle when the right is clear are merely anticipating an upcoming on/off ramp where things can get bunched up.

“Never be the fastest car on the highway” is a pretty good rule for avoiding state troopers.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 11 hours ago:
But for real, if someone is tailgating you at speed the right move really is to ease down slowly. Because if you have to stop quickly at speed, they’re going to catastrophically rear end you. Slowing down steadily lowers the stakes and may induce them to pass you and harass someone else.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 11 hours ago:
Are you implying that you break the speed limit just to pass people?
- Comment on Bruh, chill 11 hours ago:
10 MPH over the signed limit on the highway is very typical here in the US. And yeah it’s not great, lots of car fatalities here.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 11 hours ago:
Exactly. There’s a difference between ideal operation and practical reality. In reality, three-lane highways induce three lanes full of cars. And if I’m going 80 in a 60 in the left lane, the guy behind me going 90 can fucking relax. Likewise I’m not getting bent out of shape by the guy in front of me going 80.

Probably Brooklyn Bowl. It’s a combo bowling alley / mid-sized music venue in Brooklyn NY that opened a second location in Vegas a while back, because Brooklyn-branded things are apparently a big attraction for foreign tourists in the US.

Vans Slip-On Pros are basically the sharks of the shoe world: They hit optimal design a very long time ago, have barely changed since, and continue to remain one of the most effective species out there.

The droopy crotch on most joggers is really annoying for me. I like a more loose fit around the thighs but not MC Hammer levels of loose.

I was struggling to explain the plot of this one to my gf just the other day. Had to pull out screenshots of the TV movie to make it make sense.

Centrists will blend quietly into the right the way that Homer backs his way into a hedge.

Honestly I’m fairly certain they infight even harder than the left does. They just wouldn’t self-critically admit to it like we would. Cause they don’t self-crit.
- Comment on We gonna fight 1 week ago:
Are we talking about actual leftist infighting, or mistaking liberals for the left and calling it infighting?
Also I’m almost certain that the actual left infights far less than the right. The only reason two Trump administrations hasn’t started the literal fourth reich yet is because they infight so hard that they can’t stick to any plan.

Sounds like someone needs to take a little break from social media.

This is ageism. Social media should be banned for everyone.

It’s called staying away from venture capital. It really is as simple as that. Because Valve has a lucrative business model they have no need to raise capital from outside investors, and therefore there is nobody to squeeze them for value at the expense of their customers.

Scrolled down to make sure someone had mentioned this! Fantastic and professional spotlight on the potential follies and pitfalls of paleontological art. And if you want to do some Lovecraft-level psychic damage to yourself, the same artist from that book has a “speculative evolution” sci fi art book called All Tomorrows in which they envision the multifarious biological forms that humans are forcibly evolved into in the future by a malicious alien race.

Also this is a healthy maintence regime. In my experience most cyclists only do nothing on that list except swapping flat tubes and their bikes still ride just fine, if not merely sub-optimally.
