I used to run movie theaters. I used to love kicking obnoxious people out, and it made it even better when they'd make a scene like that. The little smile the one usher gives the other after she walks away... I felt that.

You would absolutely know if it was cleaned properly.

False. I briefly worked on a crew that cleaned commercial airliners between flights. We cleaned every single seat, deep cleaned the lavatories etc. We were required to inspect every single seat to make sure nothing was left behind that someone could use as a weapon or could endanger the next passengers.

So if the paramedics take me to the hospital for a broken leg or something... and I claim that I don't remember any of my identifying information, they'll just treat my leg and let me go? They won't keep me around to get to the bottom of my sudden amnesia?

I legitimately do not understand the logic behind this.

What about people without kids? Why don't they get money off their student loans or vouchers for college or vocational classes?

I don't have a car, so can I get back my portion of the money that went to widening and resurfacing the streets? Or maybe a voucher I can use at the bike shop?

Just because I don't directly utilize a tax funded service doesn't mean I don't indirectly benefit from that service, let alone that I should be reimbursed for it in some fashion. And this shit is somehow even worse. It's taking money that could be going to a public school and giving it to psycho home schoolers or people who are already rich enough to afford private schools. It's actively making things worse.

Lol, you seriously came back to a nine day old thread to rant about how no one cares about my rants.

Simmer down, Francis.

Drew's Script-O-Rama.

He's been running the site since 95. I've been visiting since 96 or 97. I even provided the hardcopy for the Big Lebowski shooting script which he posted a few months before the movie premiered.

Did you play Wonderlands?

The Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep was a great continuation of the main storyline as well.

Looks like Connect.

My kids are fucking awesome and I'm doing my best to raise them to continue being awesome. I hate thinking about the future we're leaving for them, but I know they'll be smart, capable and caring people in that future.

I wouldn't be surprised if that were an actual conversation he had with his lawyers.

What if they're not "driving" but "traveling"?

Conservatives: We love Trump because he tells it like it is.

Fetterman: ::speaks his mind::

Conservatives: No, not like that.

Woh-oh-ohoh!

A government agency is using a flimsy excuse to extort money from it's citizens, accusing people of a crime without due process... and you've made it clear that you think it's a worthy trade off for the illusion of safer roads.

You can just admit that you want intrusive observation that skips due process because it fits the narrative you want to force on everyone else.

It's okay.

I personally think it's a terrible idea.

If a person is speeding and unknowingly gets tagged by a speed camera, it doesn't stop their speeding at the time. Hence it is not about safety.

If someone is speeding then slows down just long enough to avoid getting tagged by the speed camera, then resumes speeding, it is not about safety.

If the tickets can be literally thrown in the garbage without a second thought and the issuing party can't do a thing about it, it is not about safety.

There are better ways to make people aware of their driving habits. A shitty unmanned speed camera is not one of those ways.

Have you read anything I've been writing? It is does not deter speeding. Outside of the 100 yards the camera it's business as usual. People receive tickets AFTER THE FACT. It would be more effective to have actual police enforcing limits ON THE SPOT. They do not care about safety, they are literally just trying to generate money for themselves and their cronies.

Exactly like an employee or tenant. Exactly.
