Yea they are. At least the lights go off at night on the rare occasion someone stops past the line or goes through as the light turns red.

Yea things are nuts right now. It’s crazy to me that I have had my car for 3.5 years and have almost 40k on it and yet according to KBB I can trade it in for what I paid for it. If I had a second car I would have sold it in a heartbeat. Unfortunately since I don’t I’d just spend the extra money I’m getting on the next…

They still have them up in NY so I guess it’s working for them here. Speed cameras too.

The red light cameras have put a stop to some of that. On the less busy roads without cameras though it’s the wild west sometimes. I run and if I have the light I’m still not running unless the car rolling up completely stops.

Can’t fight the truth...

Worse than a Journey? Fucking hell. The sound would be enough to drive me nuts. When I’m next to a lifted one on the parkway (which is all the time!) it’s super annoying. I couldn’t imagine driving the thing regularly.

Now that you mention it the amount of people who pass just to get stuck at a light has definitely increased. Also seeing a lot more people who get in the turning lane and shoot past people to be 3 or 4 cars ahead at the next light.

Exactly this. I drove to work through all of the lockdowns and I went from being the one in the left lane passing people to being passed by everyone who thought that parkways were now the autobahn since they were empty. When people started driving again the speed and behavior didn’t go back to the before times. It…

Well I mean the suburbs might have a hill or something... Yea I think I saw one in Oak Lawn once. Oak Lawn is the only Chicago suburb I know so just go with the joke. Haha.

I make a pouty child’s voice when I see them. So basically the same thing. Haha

Hahaha. Surprisingly close actually. She’s a super pretty mid 20 something Latina with blonde highlights who works in an upscale hair salon where the clientele is 20 something blondes so yup story checks out. Also her first Wrangler was actually white! I can’t stop laughing at how accurate your description was. Jesus…

I don’t get it either. My cousin got a Wrangler Unlimited. Why? So her and her friends could go on weekend trips together. You know how many times she drove the Jeep for those trips? Once! Why only once? Because it wasn’t good on gas and driving hundreds of miles in it wasn’t comfortable. Who knew?! And yet... She…

Yup! The worst one I ever saw was a light bar above the windshield, a lightbar on the hood and little spotlights on the side view mirrors. You know, just in case you needed to see it from space.

Wranglers. Specifically lifted and angry eyed ones that blind me every goddamn day. It’s so common it’s almost like this is how they’re all sold on Long Island.

David is still out there making all the bad decisions. He bought a Ute in Australia and subsequently bought a parts car and is going to travel there and fix it up in September! I’m both excited and terrified to read how that that goes.

I’m one of those 10 million because I just bought a Switch last November and I’m working through Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Odyssey and BOTW (which I just beat for the first time on Sunday and I had wanted to 100% but fuck Korok seeds) 

You know what you’re right. Moffat did definitely have some really good episodes. I probably shouldn’t have lumped him in with Chibnall because he wasn’t anywhere near as bad on reflection. At the end of the day at least it felt like Moffat gave a fuck. I just put them together I guess because near the end of Moffat’s…

I just looked it up and that was 2 episodes after I had given up! I watched Orphan 55 and just said you know what this isn’t worth my time anymore. I had no idea they had already had a black Doctor. That’s cool. I might just have to watch that episode.

Every time I see the angry eye Wranglers I start speaking as if I were the “angry” Wrangler. It’s always in a pouty little child’s voice and it’s usually something like, “Beep, beep! I’m so mad that we’re stuck in traffic, I’m so mad and you need to get out of my way before I get madder! Hmmph!”

This actually has me excited about Doctor Who again. When Chris Chibnall took over as the showrunner and Jodie Whitaker became the first female Doctor I was hyped but that was short lived. Jodie Whitaker was great but Chris Chibnall’s creative choices were absolute dogshit, not Moffat bad but bad. I kind of tuned out…
