honestly you have no business working in your field if that’s your approach to a fundamental facet of your job. that’s like a farmer refusing to use a spade because they prefer shovels.
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.)
this is completely incorrect—stay in the middle lane if you’re going to be on the highway for a while. if there are 3 or more lanes, the right is generally for exiting, far left for passing and middle for general travel.
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
Sounds like both your dad and brother are gay and also extremely abusive. Fun fact, just because someone is a blood relative doesn’t mean they have a free pass to be in your life.
back when I was a year-round bike commuter in New England I’d just pop on a pair of cheap over-glasses style plastic safety goggles (the type that are just basically big glasses, no elastic strap or seal or anything). Helped with wind mitigation and didn’t fog up too much since they were fairly open. nothings gonna be perfect though.
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:
Could be neat if Detective Miller engages arthropod-robot form to offer people a ride down said tunnel, all the while reminding riders to check doors and corners.
He starts in with poor finger talking point about policy when he should just be like “VOTE ZAMBONI, GET FREE BUSSY!” (And also change his name from zabrumbgju Zulbranji to Zamboni Jammony).
Let his PR team take for free: “VOTE ZAMBONY GET THE BUSSY!” you don’t need hand waving and policy minutia. Just promise a bunch of bullshit and make your name less hard to remember.
Fucking DNC being like vote for “Final Fantasy: Rebrit//consul Jambolchik Cheonicle 3:222 relust” but beware rebuplican “Fascist Not-Joe”
Guarantee most people will be like “oh yeah I think I need to vote for Fascist Not-Joe…”
