Araenna posted:I'm really confused, what should have been different? Like, he had the information that there was a red light, and as a vehicle, he needs to stop and stay stopped. The only reason there as a blind spot is because he ran a red light. The same blind spot could have existed for a car running the same light. Which is one of the reasons that intersections aren't a free for all, and running red lights is bad. Krabboss's argument is that if America had designated bike lanes than that exact accident wouldn't have happened that exact way and is probably right, but it's kind of a stupid point to be making. It's not America's fault that the cyclist ignored the red light any more than it's the driver's fault because he didn't stop at McDonald's first and the cyclist would have been long gone had the driver passed by five minutes later.

When I work from home, it's like I have an incredibly loud white noise machine. Not to mention the fact that you don't really have any legal right to demand that anyone in the vicinity of your house be quiet at 2 in the afternoon or whatever.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:Yeah I'm sure the people who thought it was a cool idea to get out of their car around giant hunting cats would listen to someone saying "don't do that". gently caress that lady any everything, but I really can't see how "leaving in a huff" is some kind of performative, attention seeking move. It seems more like plain old giving up to me.

To be clear, I wasn't talking about that lady crying and pretending that she was harassed. I'm just not buying Sandwich Anarchist's theory that stomping away from a confrontation is white fragility or attention seeking behavior.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:Ok. Assuming you haven't read up on white fragility as a psychological concept, it's real interesting stuff actually. Not trying to be pedantic, making an honest suggestion. I'm no scholar on the subject, but I have. I will also admit that I was crabby from an abnormally long commute and probably misinterpreted your original post, so I apologize.

The owner could decide not to do anything actually, and just be irritated about it. Doesn't cost a lot to fix, and if it does - you got the guy on security tape take it to the cops and have the tagger fix it. Lol it's pretty rich to post a response to a guy getting a bloody nose crying about his "life" and then accuse another poster of making too big a leap. What is it with the people who say "why couldn't the victim just have let this one go, it's no biggie in the grand scheme of things" but never "why did some rear end in a top hat have to go around starting poo poo in the first place"?

When the tagger got his rear end beat, this is referred to as the other guy "finishing it".

He's probably just really drunk. You can be drunk and keep your sense of balance until something jars it loose. A more common thing is sitting on a couch drinking and not realizing how drunk you are until you stand up for the first time and it hits you.

I've been in that position a few times, people from workplaces around there would throw in for some coffee and someone would get theirs paid for if they went and get them. They buy, you fly sort of thing. So I'm like: Gofer is kind of a demeaning term and I'd be pretty crabby too if a stranger said that to me.

If you're parallel parking correctly (starting in front of the spot and backing in), it's literally physically impossible for a car to "swoop in" and steal the spot from the front. And if you're signaling and trying to head in or there's a car in front of you ready to back in, it's not your spot.

Drunk Nerds posted:Why do you think it's from the front? Black car was backing in and silver car behind them stuck their front in the way. I don't. People were arguing that the silver car could have been rightfully claiming the spot when the black car "swooped in" or changed their mind and decided to steal the spot by backing up. I was saying it's impossible to steal a spot like that from the front, so (I thought this was obvious but I guess I'll spell it out) no matter what scenario people are envisioning here, the front car has a rightful claim to the spot.

Recipes from the 19th century often used something like Curacao or Maraschino instead of vermouth, but nobody in the history of ever called vodka on the rocks a martini. Duh, if you don't call an up vodka a martini then you don't get to impress everyone with your clever little "do X with the vermouth" zinger you picked out ahead of time.

The Chris McCandless thing reminds me of a post I saw on imgur one time. A young girl was on a school trip (or something) to Chicago and she decided to rent an inflatable raft and just paddle herself out to the middle of loving Lake Michigan and admire the Chicago skyline and read her book... and post about how magical it all is on imgur, naturally. Another imgur person saw it and took her kayak out there to rescue her dumb rear end because the sun was setting and she was a mile out and couldn't paddle herself back in. Could have been bullshit, though. Anybody know what I'm talking about?
