It makes me, soundly, not an idiot.

You’re an idiot.

Yes. If the engaging party didn’t create a reasonable fear for one’s life, and the engaged party do subsequent to engagement, then yes. Reasonable force is justified. He wasn’t throwing punches or threatening them. By surrounding him, punching him, a reasonable fear of death or severe injury was created and the third…

Have a snickers.

Obsessed? No. I do, however, rather enjoy the high after a good run, or the fact that I no longer feel like I’m out of energy after that first flight of stairs. Moreover, I enjoy the fact that I’m back to the pant size I was in high school. I feel 15 years younger.

I do when I can. Seeing as how I live in a major metropolitan area, it isn’t easy to drive that distance. It’s easier to wake up, get my few miles in, and get ready for work than have to drive somewhere 30 minutes away. I do trail run as a treat when I have the time, but I rarely have the time to indulge as often as I…

I might recommend finding better options than the sidewalk. It really is harder on your knees. Do you have any tracks around you? If you’re adverse to running local roads, that might prove to be a superior option for you. Try it. Your knees in your later life will thank you for it.

When driving and encountering a runner on the road, I think nothing of moving aside and passing. It is at most a momentary inconvenience - We’re a society that needs to share resources. Espousing hatred because I needed to pass?

No. I generally don’t feel bad about myself. Those inevitable rough work days, however, are softened by a good run. Once upon a time I was an overweight wretch who chose to lash out similarly like the original poster (or yourself). I discovered fitness, lost weight, gained a significant amount of confidence that I…

Does my reply particularly strike you as insulting? Perhaps the same advice applies to you?

No. While the original offense wasn’t something really warranted, the resisting arrest charge is valid. If she complied and let the officer have his ego trip, there wouldn’t be an issue. She refused a lawful order and continued. Any prosecutor could get a conviction for her resisting arrest. While you may believe…

Asphalt is a better surface to run on vs. concrete. Concrete inherently is harder on the knees. Ideally, we would be running on dirt surfaces, but in most metro areas that’s harder.

Great work, but I’m a little appalled at the little bit of welding he did without a helmet.

Speaking as a municipal prosecutor - you are wrong. The closest law found in some jurisdictions is the “stop as yield” (idaho stop) law wherein the bicyclist has to yield to traffic. The vast majority of the time, bicyclists take it as an invitation to blow through the sign.

So traffic laws don’t matter to you because of convenience?

Exactly. No way would I go at those speeds against oncoming traffic. I would rather defend myself man v. man against a cager. A fight against a motorcyclist is usually going to be a losing proposition considering the helmet. A dash in to a gas station, a quick dismount and then defend yourself if necessary.

Where. Is. Tyler.

Hey now. I’ve got my debt down to five figures...

Yep. Public speaking is not his forte.

Why did franz walk out with an obvious boner?
