It’s all fun and games until one of the cars starts grinding pedestrians for the skins.

When you want to feed a bird of prey but you’re also really attached to being able to count to ten.

Exactly right. They’ll also fondle their guns and dream of fighting a second revolution while simultaneously cheering the fact that the military has been forced to develop sophisticated anti-insurgency tactics and weapons over the past 16 years. They’re too fucking stupid to connect the dots.

The hawk will come out of nowhere and make a snack of any bird who tries.

I like the improvised feeding station.

That wouldn’t qualify as a residential road around here, that’s more like what you see in trailer parks. No way you should be going more than 15 mph on that.

It’ll be interesting to see how that plays in court. I mean what assistance were they planning on providing exactly? I can totally see stopping a car that has a poorly secured load, but the police comments don’t lead me to believe that’s what was happening here.

He does seem to have... Issues.

10 foot clearance? Daaam, I thought 11foot8 was bad.

I’m willing to bet real money that he has never (or at least in decades) used MLK’s real name. Every time he talks about him, every time he refers to a road named after him, he’s always used the slur because he’s always been among other racist assholes.

The security guards at the library where I work have commented that people who are squaring up to fight tend to actually get more shouty and belligerent once they know that security is there and there’s zero chance that the fight is going to go down.

Back when I was a kid we lived for about a year on a street where almost every tree had some amount of damage on the trunk from the one old drunk guy on the block. That was right around the time MADD was getting started and the cultural attitude was seriously changing from the Andy Griffith show “Ha ha, old guys who…

This is seriously like the plot of an episode of Midsomer Murders, except you know, stupid and blindingly obvious and in no way needing a brilliant detective to solve it.

Pics of the damage.

Was thinking the same thing. “Oh man, I gotta tweet about this!” *splat*

This is what you get when you have people who think the internet is a series of tubes and you assign one of them to find pictures for your website.

Had a similar incident on my street earlier this year. We’re on a dead-end near a freeway so occasionally we get idiots who don’t believe the signs come barreling down the street looking for the on-ramp only to have to barrel right back where they came from. About 1 am an f-150 with a drunk at the helm came pinballing…
