Pre-Trump I might agree but now that's the right stance to take. Either you are a decent human being or you don't need my money.

People can change, though. But only to the worse.

Well during the night it's probably more engine blocks and entire truckfuls of industrial waste than shoes.

We once found an engine block dumped way up a muddy* ski slope in the forest. If there's any kind of nature anywhere, someone is going to dump waste there even if it takes more effort than dumping it somewhere legal.

In my state (PA) it's literally against the law to refuse to move out of the way of faster traffic if you're in the left lane

That is not the same thing at all. Speeding on the left lane is exactly 100% as illegal as speeding anywhere else, in PA or any other state.

it's cool to speed if everyone else is doing it

*dies in preventable car accident*

quote:

An increase in average speed is directly related both to the likelihood of a crash occurring and to the severity of the consequences of the crash. For example, an increase of 1 km/h in mean vehicle speed results in an increase of 3% in the incidence of crashes resulting in injury and an increase of 4–5% in the incidence of fatal crashes.

An adult pedestrian’s risk of dying is less than 20% if struck by a car at 50 km/h and almost 60% if hit at 80 km/h.

When people don't even wait for the elevator doors to open fully to try and pile in it while my rear end still needs to get off the drat thing. Some old gently caress in Florida almost shoulder checks me, backs up, and waves me on with a "your majesty" look on his face.

gently caress off Jeff, you're in the lobby, someone is going to be getting off once the god damned thing gets there I'm about to whup your rear end.

You should've pushed him out with you and held him in a bear hug outside the elevator long enough that it departs. And then some. But no grinding!

People who say vague or ominous poo poo without any frame of reference and refuse to give any context. Like "call me". Just give me an idea of what it's about, so I know if you want to make plans to see a movie, or someone loving died, because if you are texting me something like that you already know I can't call you right away you idiot. Why would you try and stress me out in the meantime?

People like to send "could you come over for a minute?" messages at work on Skype or whatever it's called nowadays and I just completely disregard them because if they can't be arsed to write what it's about, I can't be arsed to go there or even respond.

So far it's never been anything worth my time* anyway.

Greek yoghurt around here is plain yoghurt :confused:

e: Oh it's a dumb American thing again "Strained yogurt is sometimes marketed in North America as "Greek yogurt"" Actually I guess it is a bit thicker than the non-greek plain stuff. The really thick poo poo is sold as Turkish. I have no idea why the Bulgarian stuff is called Bulgarian.

I guess this is a corollary, but I saw a family where they were charging their ipad, but instead of sitting where the charging station was, they were all sitting like 6 seats over. So this ipad is just sitting their charging and taking up a seat. It was busy and there were barely any empty seats, and here's an ipad on a seat all by itself.

Move the Ipad on the floor?

I think the idea is that they won't have to carry around poo poo in a bag the rest of the hike and they can pick it up to dispose of on the way back. Realistically, the amount of people who follow through on it...

yeah I eat rear end posted:

I always assumed they think they are doing whoever does the groundskeeping in the park a favor by making it easier for them to see it/pick it up. Some people think that just because a person is paid to clean something, it means you aren't expected to make any effort yourself. You see the same attitude in public bathrooms too, or in offices where people think "don't worry about it, the janitor will get that".

I mean, technically it is their job, but you're still an rear end in a top hat if you go out of your way to make it more difficult/gross for them. Unfortunately I think a lot of people are raised without ever learning to clean up after themselves and will never learn unless all the people picking up after them disappear suddenly.

Too bad the groundskeeper is literally only responsible for things on the ground so it's dogshit christmas all year round!

People who step off an escalator and then stand there blocking it are worse because you don't get the option to stand there and wait or ask them to move, the escalator is shoving you into them and there's probably a line of people behind you getting shoved into you so you can't even back up
