  • It probably has a ring camera in it or a literal drone flying near it and the current admin is too stupid to think to do a bug check. Meanwhile all those worst people you’ve played COD with over the years have graduated to murdering actual people and the one really shitty friend from high school (if you’re still in touch) is likely singing their praises on social.

    But like, hey it’s important to consider the feelings of someone who is sad about eating animals but still eats fish because they aren’t animals right?

    can you cite a state’s traffic law that says (in so many words) “don’t use the middle lane for long term travel” ?

    I am speaking toward common sense driving in the US. Not 100% adherence to local traffic code minutia. If you’re going to be on the highway for ~a while~ and it has 3+ lanes, get in the middle lane and set your cruise control to the speed limit. then adjust for local conditions. this isn’t rocket surgery.

    Yeah, why be in the right lane (of a 3+ lane highway) if you’re not planning to exit soon.

    Yeah, why be in the left lane (of a 3+lane highway) if you’re not going faster to pass for whatever reason.)

    of course, there are situations where this doesn’t apply

    If you can’t figure out the solutions to those situations, maybe don’t get behind the wheel.

    Please tell me what you think the middle 1-5 lanes of highway are REALLY for, other than my suggested assumption of “general travel” (meaning: you’re probably not going to get off the highway for the next 5-20 exits.)



  • How old are you and also have you become a thing lunatic right-winger? Two of those are common causes for friends drifting apart. 1) if you’re in your late 20s / early 30s most other people are busy with their own shit and don’t have time to engage with the people who used to occupy their entire existence. 2) if you became an unhinged rightwinger spouting insane nonsense then people probably don’t wanna engage with you.

    Likely it’s just you’re old now so old social circles close up








  • Have you considered these people don’t consider you to be that important in their own lives? It’s not the job of friends to fix the perceived foibles of their friends, unless a friend actually asks for help.

    Friends are just people who enjoy each others company and offer as much or as little emotional support when able/willing. When that stops being the case it’s fine to drift apart.

    Also, really take a step back, ‘cause you literally wrote this:
