I don't understand why you were afraid. You've driven FAR more more money onto their balance sheet by pushing business to their door selling warranties than the small cost incurred by your repairs.

You're a fantastic advertisement for their product. So much so, you could reasonably demand discounts.

If they do have a…

Looks like the same culture to me — nothing but bragging about what daddy gave you.

Ah .. I may have missed the comment to which you were responding because of this 'grey vs real people' thing that Kinja has going on. No worries! :)

Touche.

Let's bring this conversation back to the original post for a moment.

If Virgin is an option, it is always my first choice. Flying with Virgin is .. pleasant. There .. I said it. Pleasant. Not horrible. Enjoyable, even.

In addition to great prices, they hit the little targets of which the other airlines are completely ignorant. Virgin serves great beer. Their staff smile and…

The incident in Ferguson involved a gun. A handgun. The kind that every cop in the country has at their side.

So can we please, please, stop dropping that into every conversation about cops and weapons?

Meme is a homonym, but not actually related to the English word.

Close, but only partial marks for your response. The word was coined by Dawkins, the "word meme is a shortening (modeled on gene) of mimeme (from Ancient Greekμίμημα Greek pronunciation: [míːmɛːma]mīmēma, "imitated thing", from μιμεῖσθαιmimeisthai, "to imitate", from μῖμος mimos "mime")^[4]."

They are banned at SFO, too. Hasn't stopped me from getting picked up and dropped off.

UberX drivers use their own cars — often something like a Prius (I know .. the shame) — so there is no way to police the ridiculous ban. Thankfully.

I've never waited more than 5 minutes for an Uber at SFO — not sure what this app would give me that I couldn't get by calling the car while waiting for my luggage.

So, you're happy crippling the economy for 1/7th of the week in order to force people to spend time at home? Great.

We can conveniently ignore all those people who're at work or school Mon - Fri and who need a second job, right? Screw the poor — they need more family time.

And let's close stores for one of the two…

.. because they somehow restrict other businesses?

Thankfully, the law doesn't recognize the smell test.

"So, in order to fully address any ambiguity or uncertainty around insurance coverage for ridesharing services, Uber is becoming the first and only company to have a policy in place that expands the insurance of ridesharing drivers to cover any potential "insurance gap" for accidents that occur while drivers are not…

Uninsured? Unlicensed?

Do you work for a cab company or do you just enjoy spreading the FUD?

Any monopoly is terrible for the economy. The fact that Uber can provide a better service than existing taxi companies for a lower rate is fantastic for the consumer and the drivers who otherwise can't compete for a precious…

The guy IS an asshole. The fact that the video exposes that is secondary.

I don't think you need to feel conflicted. Like you, I don't want drunk drivers on the road. However, I don't see any way for this program to reduce the number of drunk drivers.

There is a reason that I don't depend on car sites for fashion advice.
