A bad driver never misses their turn.

Thank goodness John Henry has taught us Americans that machines will never beat humans, so we obviously know how this will end. /s

If you signal in turn lanes or while switching lanes when no one is around you’ll build healthy habits of using your signal in all other appropriate times.

Signal every time you plan to deviate from your current lane of travel.

Also FFS, signal before you start to merge so that people know what the fuck you’re doing. Too many times I’ve ridden with people that got upset when no one is “letting them in” and they haven’t even bothered to tell people they want in.

CP does not mean:

• Cyberpunk
• Club Penguin
• Cleft Palate
• Cerebral Policy Palsy
• Conservative Party

If you’re on a Unix terminal it means “copy,” anywhere else it means what Josh Duggar is into.

To the small handful of socially liberal and fiscally conservative folks that found this thread let me ask a few questions:

• Does it make more fiscal sense to build a chemical treatment plant next to a neighborhood of people that can afford lawyers or a neighborhood of those that can’t?
• What is the social makeup of each of those neighborhoods?
• How did that social makeup come to be?

The hatred of property tax really pisses me off.

I have a mortgage on the house in which I reside. I have to pay property tax on the house in which I reside. My annual property taxes are less than half the minimum monthly payment for my mortgage. If I can afford my monthly payment I can afford my taxes. If I can’t afford my monthly payment the taxes aren’t the problem.

And what do I actually get for that less than half a monthly mortgage payment in annual taxes?

• 2 large parks with miles of walking paths, a playground, a basketball and a soccer court, all maintained and within 2 blocks
• maintained roads to my house that are cleaned regularly
• decent schools nearby

Yes, I recognize I got lucky and am privileged enough to have, not just stable housing, but that which I “own,” but that just makes my distaste of the hatred of property taxes all the greater.

They don’t pay attention to the world around them.
