“We believe that the government closer to home is best because it’s more in tune with the needs of it’s citizens.”

We drive pretty regularly on a freeway where the right lane will back up for miles, (off ramp to another major freeway) the middle lane can back up in an instant because someone is trying to get into the backed up right lane, and the left lane is generally free flowing. When you’re in the left lane there can be a good…

My wife was a school bus driver for 10 years and I’ve had defensive driving training, so often when we’re driving our conversation will suddenly stop in mid sentence because we’re both seeing a situation developing ahead and are focusing on that. Just as a matter of course we’re always quiet when merging or dealing…

Yeah, a lot of people don’t realize that they display body language via their cars, and that if you’re paying attention you can even pick up on another driver checking their mirrors and such and guess what they’re going to do.

I knew it was going to happen without seeing the turn indicator. You see cars drastically slowed in one lane while the next lane is clear, you should always assume that some idiot is going to jump lanes without looking.

I thought of that one as well. I want to say that there was a similar one with an older white guy who repeatedly pointed a shotgun at the cops during a standoff and yet somehow came out of it completely unperforated.

And the kicker is that years from now some assholes will still be citing this fake rape as a real thing that happened.

Ah, I’m sure the insurance company will let it slide after so long.

I got my foot run over by a guy in a minivan, and if I had been killed or critically injured they would have just taken his word that I “jumped out in front of him” instead of you know, stepping off the curb after getting the walk signal and expecting that the completely stopped minivan would remain stopped instead of…

Forget it Jake, it’s CBS.

It should be “Spectacles, Testicles, Wallet & Watch”, it’s a mnemonic for remembering how to make the sign of the cross. My dad showed me it back when I was a teen and we had to attend some event at a catholic church for reasons I can no longer recall. Head, lower stomach, left chest, right chest. It made more sense…

Right now a script writer for Scorpion is crying with joy.

Back in the day one of my friends had a PC setup with all the bells and whistles including speakers behind him so he got full surround sound in his games. He was sitting in the dark, hunched over and completely into playing one of the Aliens games. (don’t recall which) He heard an alien behind him just a second before…

Reminds me of when we were at a friend’s house helping (OK, mostly watching) him tear down a very similar car for parts. He had it down to the frame, engine and electrical when someone commented “Ya know, with the seats in this would technically still be street legal...” So of course they had to put the seats back in…

Yeah, Taco Bell and White Castle are the two places where I generally don’t eat, but every so often I just get a craving for their food that needs to be sated even though I know I may regret it later.

My first thought on seeing that quote was “A 7 year old girl was shot while sleeping on a couch during a police raid on the wrong unit of a duplex, but yeah OK whatever.”

It’s the worst, just the worst. I hate passive voice bullshit in reports of police shooting people anyway, but this reads like they’re trying to get some kind of award for “most disconnected from police actions” framing.

Or perhaps the cop’s situational awareness was crap, she got shot when she startled them by showing up at the window, and they came up with the “loud noise” story in an attempt to cover their terrified-by-everything asses.
