It’s not hard to adapt to a polyphasic schedule. I take three 6-hour naps every day and I’m fine.

HST would recommend swearing off wives and giving the booze a hug.

You are all free to find something intended as amusing either funny or not funny, humour is very much subjective.

I got the results back. I’m afraid the stick up your ass is permanent.

I get it. What exactly am I supposed to be ringing my hands over? And why, oh why, do any of you think entertainers are supposed to be better people than Joe Schmoe in a flyover state?

Fucking relax.

It’s exhausting being outraged all the time, and constantly letting perfect be the enemy of good.

anyone else just...really tired,

Konami needs to just die already tbh.

Your example doesn’t really fit the situation, so I’ll fix it for you. I’m walking down the street, you’re walking three inches behind me because you’re an idiot and don’t understand sidewalks. I stop for a tenth of a second because there’s a nail in the sidewalk, or a baby duck, so for a tiny fraction of a second, I…

The brake checker feels the same way though. “Why is this person behind me willing to get into a high speed accident just to tell me he isn’t happy with my 15 mph over the speed limit”.

I’m all about not being left-lane hogs, but I think that people who feel the right to tailgate someone deserve some sort of social check on their behavior. If you can’t brake safely because the person in front of you has hit their brakes, then you’re driving too close. That makes you a bigger jerk than a left-lane hog.

Assuming the guy doing the filming was doing roughly the speed limit, and he seems to be keeping pace with the guy up ahead of him so it seems like a reasonable assumption... then the guy being harassed is passing at a reasonable rate of overtake in the left lane and therefore is doing pretty much exactly as he should…

Not so wreckless this time

Not really. You just want the person to not be behind you in an unsafe position. It's scary as hell when someone is giving you less than 3 feet of space at 70+ miles per hour and there is unpredictable traffic ahead of you.

I would also add that “brake checking” is completely legal, while tailgating is often ticketed as “wreckless driving.” And yet we are scoffing at the law abiding citizen and feeling sympathetic for the aggressive dumbass? Clearly I don’t belong with this group of readers...

This video got me slightly aroused.

because they’re hyper competitive, aggressive assholes. They’re the same pricks who will speed up to get past you if you signal to change lanes ahead of them.

Why do people tailgate? When has a slow driver ever moved over because they were being tailgated?
