You need more stars. I always vote for the lesser of two evils every election. In that regards, this election has me sorely confuzzled.

More disingenuous reporting from Gawker.

And then the still lower IQ people will vote for Hillary, even though she should be in jail. Any other person with a security clearance would be already.

You are one giant pussy sir, it only takes a little common sense to drive a 400 Hp car. I did today, in the rain. I'm still alive.

I think what Sampsonite is saying is that the peeling should have been done long before going to the dealer.

You do understand that it's a joke, right?

*adds to list* “pissed.... on... also....”

But seriously fuck coal rollers, preferably with a rail spike covered in pissed off fire ants.

Gonna go with looking badass.

The really strange bit is that because of structural advantages of running a big taxi operation, the taxi companies should be able to beat Uber on price/quality since their costs should be lower.

Also in Seattle, but from the resident’s (non-downtown) perspective, I don’t even bother with cabs anymore. I’ve managed to hail exactly one, and that was because he dropped someone off at a bar in Ballard that I happened to be leaving at the exact right moment.

Look up the history if Jitney cabs... they didn’t originally create the medallion system to protect cabbies from competition, they created it because without some kinda limit on the number of cabs the cabbies basically multiplied to the point where they completely clogged up the streets - The point at which they…

That’s a complete lie, uttered by someone with little experience in the industry.

I work in a hotel in Seattle. 50-60 hours a week. I am heavily involved in the front drive operations of a very, very large hotel. I have a great deal of understanding in the for-hire industry of a large city.

Uber HAS caused a problem…

Unfortunately, taxi drivers can’t just ignore the law and so their prices are fixed and their profits limited. They still need to pay over $100k for a vehicle license, $1200 individually each year for a taxi driver license, plus commercial insurance rates, and can only charge rates set by the city with no concept of…

The reality is that cab companies, on the whole, follow regulations that have been constructed over decades. Uber-defenders try to paint these regulations as protectionism for taxi companies, designed and lobbied for by the industry, but these regulations are in place primarily to benefit riders and make taxiing a…

You aren’t wrong, and this is a good cautionary note to anyone considering doing the same thing I did!

“Basically, everything in that besides not being able to sustain a turn with a Viper is fixable.”

Just arm your vehicle... then the NRA will protect your rights to own and operate it.

If you are trying to make a direct correlation between the amount of gun owners and the number of car enthusiasts, you would be greatly mistaken. the number of registered gun owners in Minnesota alone would make the third largest standing army in the world. The percentage of incidents causes by stupid drivers vs.…

This. Just remember who’s making these decisions for you, folks. It’s not a bunch of super smart scientists who just inherently know better than you. Though that’d be a problem, too, no, ultimately it’s politicians and the masses cuckolded enough to believe our leaders actually give even a fraction of one measly fuck…
