I DIDN'T GET ENOUGH RAPE LAST TIME, MAY I HAVE SOME MORE?

If you take the pic from the street I don't think anyone can actually say poo poo. If you're on his property I think he can tell you to get off but that's about it. When people start posturing with me I just take it to extremes fast and it usually works out. I'm more apt to do it when in full gear since I look a lot more imposing. My favorite line is, 'Hit me or STFU, I can't start it but I can finish it."

Having several years of MMA experience to back it up is helpful. As sometimes they choose not to STFU...

I just say "killuminati all thru ya body like a 12 gauge shotty" then they back up because im 2pac.

You can take a picture of anything you can see while standing on public (or your own) property. There are two main exceptions: first, things that have some relevance to national security, which used to basically mean military bases and some government buildings but post-PATRIOT act can include anything from oil refineries to freeway overpasses; and second, areas in which a person has "a reasonable expectation of privacy", such as in their bedroom window. As usual, enforcement depends on how pissy the cop is and how brown you are.

The parking lot he was in was likely private property, but even in that case the worst the property owner can do is ask you to leave. And if you're standing on a public sidewalk you can take as many pics as you please (until you get beaten up).

Before, during and after. The place I was going to in town here closed recently, but I was working on my BJJ and Muay Thai. My dad got me into it as a kid, I've studied a lot of different styles from Tae-Kwan Do, American Karate, Jeet Kun Do and Judo. As for skating, I started that at 7 and quit around 19 with time off in between for injuries. I've done a lot of different things and I hate sitting around doing nothing. I was home schooled and had a ton of free time.

As for when people make fun of me on the internet I crawl into a ball and cry, my poor little ego just can't take it...

You can definitely do that on a phone or whatever.

God, it's like animals have stopped running out in front of cars. Either that, or road kill is lumped in with generic debris when I ride, and I ignore it other than to not run over it.

I was considering killing something and staging the scene after riding around all day to no avail.

I did stop by the side of the road and see some Reindeer.

To be honest, yeah. I will refrain from posting in this thread until my bike is put back together and I can contribute a photo.

OK, this might not be the location you were looking for, but I was legitimately working in the garage for a bit during lunch so I thought I'd take a photo. If it isn't appropriate or what you were thinking, I'll certainly acquiesce with no problems.



Glass of water, PB sandwich and some dried apricots for the side. Still munching on the apricots as I type this.

We don't have Highway Point of Interest signs in the UK - the closest thing are the National Heritage tourist information signs I think.

There are signs around here that say "gusty winds may exist." So that's something that may or may not be happening from the past towards the future, if, in fact, at all. Most existential signs ever.
