John Wick didn't kill all those people for a fucking Dodge.

Imagine having 90k to spend in a car and buying a dodge.

The line I keep hearing Dr Steven Novella repeat (and I’m inclined to believe him) is that belief in BS increases with education until the post-doc level, where it sharply declines. Behavioral study after study suggest that it takes more than education, it takes social engineering.

Paid by the word worked for Dickens too!

See, that was my understanding also. Y2k, like the ozone layer, only took the massive coordinated efforts of millions of people to overcome. Remember acid rain? That too.

I worked for a bank over Y2k. My understanding was that “Y2k,” while slighly overblown, only took a several million hours of collective overtime to fix. 

You just described half the rides I took to high school. Goddamn. Is that you, Mike? Fuck your blue Olds!

tell a boring story that doesn’t go anywhere!

Driving is a worse discretionary activity that makes the whole world a worse place. Stop yours first. Right. You wouldn't.

I’ve got five in my neighborhood. 2 grey, 1 black, 1 blue, 1 white. 

You are overly entitled for getting enraged while being slighly inconvenienced somewhat by people doing a normal thing. I mean, you have to angle your foot somewhat differently, Karen. Get a grip.

Bruh. Of course I’d love to share my experience.

When we lived in Broomfield, the grass could get damned thick in the shady bits. We recently built over by that midtown development and went with gravel and stones with some prairie grassses. Not only will i never mow again, we’re not spewing thousands of gallons of water to maintain a sward of green that's not…

Oh man I agree completely. Sorry I didn’t make that clear. Human drivers kill tens of thousands of people ( in the US) a year and everyone's like, "eh."

History? You mean the documentation that our species tends to organize no matter what? It's literally our defining characteristic. Alexandria was burned and Hypatia murdered, yet it was recorded and spread around. Rome burned and still persists. Some assholes causing a localized run on a consumer good doesn't even…

A hundred Americans die every day on the road. That could keep a whole news outlet busy if anybody cared.

Meh. Some of the largest companies in the world don't turn a profit. As long as they can keep selling.

We sold last year and prospective buyers had to put it under contract to even view the place. We had a bid at 30% over asking within 24 hrs.

Disagree. The fact that civilization is the norm means it is our default behavior. 

How so? You just know this chick has kids.
