It's just 20 bucks.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Gawker to tell you that

It is undeniable only if you believe Gawker’s biased coverage and don't bother to find out the safety record of regular cabs.

In New York and Chicago and other big cities, most rides are not dispatched, and unlike Uber, have no record.

How so? With Uber, there is always a record. With a cab, you have to hope the victim caught the cab or license number.

“the fact remains that women have reported being raped and assaulted by their Uber drivers many, many times.”

Don't forget she went through her phase of wanting to be taken care of by her rich boyfriend.

Why the apology for Maher? Because he is not the perfect liberal who overlooks some of the ridiculous fussiness of the left? Because he doesn't excuse egregious stuff pulled by The Other?

Meantime, as long as Uber the reality rather than what its haters keep predicting remains a superior product to cabs, I will keep using it.

0.30 a mile sounds made up by you.

They do. A tip is really just a way to charge yourself more for the ride. If that's what one wants to do, fine, but it's not the norm.

Tipping is not part of the Uber model. Sounds like she is strangely unaware of this clearly stated feature of Uber pricing.
