The schad is every two years the english still don't realise that being able to score 45 goals against Montenegro and Gibraltar means nothing when you can't score even one against Italy.

Wouldn't this also be a criminal offense?

Couple pages late to this, but often officers are compelled to provide information under threat of termination to internal affairs or whatever the equivalent oversight body is. "Hey come down and answer questions or you're fired." If that happens, nothing that results from that can be used in a criminal proceeding as it'd violate their 5th Amendment rights against self-incrimination.

Just because you turn your blinker on, you aren't entitled to force a spot for you to squeeze into.

That's not what "cut off" means. The cop wasn't denied access to any part of the road. If anything, the cop was trying to cut off the guy trying to merge into the left lane.

What?

When you cut in close in front of someone and make them slow down, you are cutting them off. Not sure if it's a ticketable offense, but it's a dick move.

Cutting off other motorists
Refers to a vehicle that enters a lane without proper caution, leaving a small amount of distance between other surrounding vehicles. This can be caused by unawareness of surroundings, impatience, and/or aggressiveness.

The right of way goes to the vehicle traveling straight. The vehicle merging or changing lanes always yields. It is courteous to make room for someone when they're attempting to change lanes, but it's not required by law.

It's dangerous driving, which is generally a ticketable offence.

I know the CrossFit stuff was a few pages back, but my favorite schad of CF is that apparently barfing is a fairly regular occurance.

To the point that they have a mascot: pukie the clown.

Why do crossfitters consider rhabdo a good thing? My dad had it after a drug interaction/possible overdose on prescription blood pressure cholesterol drugs. Not only did he almost die, he lost 35 pounds of muscle in a week (and was apparently peeing what looked like coffee but that's beside the point). How is that a badge of honor for someone trying to get fit?

Cop or not, that white SUV was merging dangerously by coming in at an angle where the other SUV likely couldn't see them signalling the merge. It's not like the two lanes are converging and the cop didn't let the zipper merge happen, it's regular traffic where a car bullied its way in front of somebody that was pretty much directly next to them instead of behind them.

The entirety of CrossFit is the old axiom of "No Pain, No Gain" taken to its most idiotic extreme. The more you hurt yourself, the tougher you'll be in the end!

I really doubt they actually consider it a good thing. The idea of it is like a badge of honor, I'm so tough and go so hard I piss blood etc.

Like a soldier who gets respect and a medal for being wounded, but really it would be better for everyone if they weren't, it's just impolite to say that.

lol no, are you blind? they are all nearly idling as its a merge lane somewhere. Van hosed up, or was just stuck in flow of traffic trying to exit. all the cop had to do was brake for about 5 seconds and roll his eyes at how much traffic sucks.
