Yeah, and the fun part is being called a racist when I had in fact missed that she’s apparently a POC. Oh well.

Wow, talk about a slippery slope argument. Yes, I know that a speedo is very different. That’s the point. Airlines have a dress code for passengers. That code can be poorly/wrongly interpreted. Are women more often caught in this? Absolutely. Is it sexist to point out that there’s ambiguity involved? That’s a pretty…

So it would be okay for me to go to the gate wearing nothing except a speedo? Trust me, you do not want that.

Does parking on a dirt parking lot when you go to one of those cut down your own Christmas tree places count?

So in other words, the previous generation Ranger.

Yes; totally correct!

I heard it was for sale for $420/share.

Is he by chance related to Freddy?

You forgot that the car need to be a wagon, and only be available in brown.

Those safety goggles are really doing a great job of protecting that guy’s forehead from the laser light.

Reminds me of a story I read many years ago. The author made a home built single engine airplane and flew it around the world.

Well, my ex turned out to not be that reliable, so there’s that.

Neutral: I’ve owned Chevy, Fords, and Mazada. I keep vehicles for a long time, so it’s all about what I think will be reliable over the long haul.

It looked accidental to me. It was fairly tight between the lanes. I think he stopped to exchange info. Though of course I didn’t stick around to see that happen.

Years ago when I lived in San Jose a lanesplitter broke the mirror off of a car as he passed it. The cars in both lanes were stopped.

When you’re lane splitting, you’re likely to be in the driver’s blind spot until you’re really close to the car. Even if the driver turns their head and check their blind spot and they have their mirrors adjusted correctly, vision from your side mirror can be blocked by the car behind you, and the C pillar can be in…

Shifters that don’t have physical detents and/or just too gimmicky.

North Texas. It seems like every time I get into someone’s blind spot on the streets, they start to drift toward my lane.

Maybe because they’ll get you a subprime loan if you are capable of crossing the threshold of the local dealership?
