Left lane squatting is A Big Thing in Western Washington, and cops are actually starting to crack down on it. The past month or so, they've been giving warnings and handing out pamphlets basically saying "move the gently caress over or you're getting a ticket next time." I think it's this month or next they plan on ticketing.

I'm going to be a shill for CycleGear for the moment, so feel free to skip over this: If any of you live near one and run tubeless tires, I'd suggest getting motoguard. It's $20-25 bucks (depending on the tire's cost) or $30 for front and rear. If you pick up a puncture (or the tire shits out on you or whatever) within the first 25% of tread life, you get 100% of your purchase price of the tire towards a replacement. If the tread's below 75%, it's pro-rated based on the depth of a new tire of the type you have based on your current depth. After you get the new tire, all you pay is any related state fees (in WA it's $1 for every motorcycle tire sold) and for motoguard on the new tire. Regardless of CG's lovely house-brand gear, it's actually really good insurance for something that can cost a poo poo load of money.

The truck driver, theoretically, has a higher driving skill than your average driver. What with their "training" and all. He's also driving something much larger, heavier and more dangerous.

I'm not sure what the point of raging onto my rear end while I'm indicating to turn into a parking lot is, Mr Dodge Durango. But gently caress you. I indicated with plenty of time and didn't slam my brakes. If turn into the lot and look back- oh you're on a cell phone. Allow me to reiterate: gently caress you. Idiot in the BMW X5, hang up your phone and pay attention to the loving road. You were in the right turn only lane, with your indicator on, and about to make the turn when "WAIT I WANT TO GO WEST NOT EAST" and, without looking, hard left it into the center lane. I almost end up in your rear left quarter panel. Even after laying on my horn and flashing my headlight you just keep on trucking. No "oh poo poo my bad" wave, just "I'll get milk from the store you pick up the kids this conversation is too important to wait for later." gently caress you. Hang up the goddamn phone.

Super Slash posted:Hearing about these makes me wonder about the effects of the majority of American cars being automatic rather than manual, I imagine it's a lot easier to gently caress about when there's less attention needed to control the car's functions, not that it excuses retarded behavior though. Fixed for Seattle. Maybe it's me, but I never really have issues with Lexuses? Lexii?

Irrational irritation: Every time I see someone with a modular helmet and the chin is flipped up. The only exception is when they're going under 10mph or sitting still. What the gently caress is the point of buying a modular if you're going to wear it like a goddamn 3/4 helmet?

Guy was sizing up "his gurrll" for a leather jacket the other day. He didn't want any of our help. "No, babe, you want it to fit loose. I usually wear a large, but I needed a 2XL in leathers. poo poo was way too tight. You want plenty of room in there." The weather this time of year is great. The idiots are not.

Used to be if you got there by X:00, you could enter the store and out of a sense of decency, make a beeline for what you needed and move it along, with or without a very polite announcement. Today, closing time is I THE STORE MANAGER WILL HAVE MY CAR IN GEAR AT X:00:01 AND I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO START SHUTTING OFF LIGHTS AND SHOVING PEOPLE OUT THE DOOR 30 MINUTES PRIOR. We lock the doors at closing time and begin our closing duties. The majority of people who walk in at the last minute (for our store) "just want to look around" and leave a mess. We don't kick anyone out and only ask people to leave of they're here half an hour past closing. I'm sorry* if people can look up our phone number but not our hours and expect us to open every helmet box when they walk in at the last minute. We're open seven days a week. *I'm not sorry.

Having parked on various parking garages, whether they be (un)paid or (un)guarded, I've not come across any issues. I've even had drivers tell me (upon leaving) of free or reduced parking in the garage. If the lot's pretty full and guarded, I'll ask the guard if I can park off to the side somewhere. poo poo, I remember parking in packs of bikes and scooters under the viaduct. We'd all cram as many bikes into one spot or in the no parking zone as possible. Never got so much as a written warning.
