As with motorcyclists who attempt to prove their skill on public thoroughfares, my fervent wish for this asshat is that he’s arrested for reckless endangerment and loses both license and dune buggy.

Seriously, it doesn’t take much in the way of brains to figure out the best places to play with your toys.

I got into a rhythm earlier: those appearing to have half read jimz comment all got the same response from me, and I didn’t read through entire threads to find the mea culpas. :D

That officer’s dick is seemingly just fine.

RCW 46.08.065 appears to provide exceptions for police, at least for State police.

Don’t be insulting. Ponds have good things in them that help clean the air.

Wow. If you wanted to expose yourself as an asshole, you’ve done a more than adequate job of it.

and that is what jimz wrote. he didn’t equate their actions, you have.

driving is a privilege to earn, not a right.

both of jimz’s points are valid. he didn’t equate them.

Uh, take out is when I place an order and pick it up myself.

25% tip for take-out? I do hope you mean delivery.

Only if the surcharge goes to the drivers and no cut is taken by the restaurant.

Order away, but change your delivery expectations and increase your tip. Fail in either of those (31 minutes? You’re late! No tip for you!) and you are a grade A, first class asshole.

Feel free to dislike the custom of tipping, but unless you’re actively engaged in changing the wages that servers and drivers earn - which, by the way is far less in most states than you’d earn in retail - be prepared to be thrown off a roof and have no one mourn your sorry ass.

To be fair, many ideas do need flushing at some point. ;)

This. Thank you.

There is rather a difference between awareness of an issue and the direct experience. A privileged white male can easily have the former without the latter.

I don’t worry about empathy or praise, instead focusing on the learning aspect. If the person is learning we’re all better for it.

Oh, hell no.
