“Guns” are the symptom and until the real issues are addressed you’ll just be screaming for knife control or baseball bat control down the road.

It’s not pointless. It is just worthless for many of its supposed purposes. It is not rehabilitative. It is not punitive. It is not a deterrent. What it does is remove the criminal from society for whatever duration he is locked up. As long as he is behind bars, he is not shooting potential carjack victims in…

Remember when gas/oil prices went up really high and flight prices skyrocketed because of it? And they crammed more seats on planes and charged us heavy fees for bags? Then fuel/oil prices dropped drastically and the flight prices never went down and fees never went away? Fuck everything about the airlines.
You accidentally drop your fork. You don’t accidentally fall on another dude’s dick. Cheating is a deliberate choice. It is not an accident. Maybe a mistake, but never an accident.
Once a cheater, always a cheater. She’s still a cheater, and still can’t be trusted. The guy probably kicks himself to this day about not kicking her to the curb immediately. And now he’s trapped.
In the third year of my marriage to my husband, I slept with his best friend.
The vast majority of Pewdiepie’s fans are children. And children are stupid. They’re not emotionally mature enough to fully grasp nuance or context. They see Jacksepticeye criticizing his actions while also voicing support, and all they understand is “Jacksepticeye talked shit about Pewdiepie.” They can’t see how…
You’re probably a giant asshole too.
You’re not a millenial...you’re Gen Y.
The extreme political editorializing on this site is getting old quickly. This may be news to you, but 47% of the country sees things differently than you. Marginalizing half your readerbase is not a good business model.
Right? And worse yet, this is a car blog - I want to talk about cars, not listen to a bunch of whiny-asses rant and rave because things didn’t go their way... There are places made just for them to do that. Jalopnik isn’t one of them.
“ the man who campaigned on a platform of racist economic nationalism.”
is this how it’s gonna be for the next 4 years? boo-hoo round-the-clock? sour grapes 24/7?
It’s obvious that you get all your knowledge of firearm acoustics from movies so let me put it into perspective for you, those 6 gunshots in close range will produce 145-165 dB of sound over 12 ms. That is going to cause permanent hearing damage no matter how strong your genes are.
Ummmm... You realize what you described is proper driving technique. ‘Keep right except to pass.’ It’s kind of the [unenforced] law in most places.
This is just like round-a-bouts, or lane splitting. It sounds like a great efficient idea as long as everyone one the road is aware of the rules and knows what the hell they are doing. Guess what? THEY DON’T, and changes are a 1/3 of the drives on the road never will. Traffic maneuvers like this count on common…
My problem with this isn’t the people blocking, it’s the people abusing it. If you follow the “everyone lets one car over” concept, or the “hey, an open space, let me slide in” it is fine. The issue is no one does. They all fly into the merge at 2-3x the speed of the “slow lane” and try to jam in.
the even worse offender is the angry moron in a truck-nutted Chevy Avalanche riding my ass or slamming on the brakes in order to vigilante this from happening.
As Virginia is often wont to do I have seen State Troopers who patrol the impending lane closure pulling those over who try to sneak in at the point of no return. Just outside of Virginia Beach I saw 3 cars pulled for this offense. I applaud the truckers who lane straddle to keep those drivers in check. I will always…
