This is from last year's ads, but the underlying structure of the fund is still the same.

Left turns going first is an attempt to keep traffic moving instead of blocking a whole travel lane. Its often invited by oncoming traffic with a headlight flash while stopped if you have your blinker on. But even when not invited, its safe at most intersections, I've come to expect it, and accept it as an obviously beneficial traffic pattern.
Honking at the light is on a delay of like 2 whole seconds! I don't do it because I'd die before unnecessarily honking the car horn but hey! Get off your phone!
I was also still fresh off the divorce, so I can only imagine the look I was giving her lmao
i have had this stuck in my head since watching that Age of Samurai show
you're like a fish trying to understand it's underwater
Fucking evangelicals.
The commercial against Jewish hate I was happy with. Also that was my wife's company who made it.
Top commercial was Aubrey Plaza for Baja Blast.
I would have a nervous breakdown driving in Boston
there's a similar divide between Maryland and Virginia drivers where each driving culture seems specifically designed to kill the other
I had to talk my wife out of driving like that, especially in NJ. Don't be nice, be predictable.
Edit: I read the post backwards but I think my point still stands.
she brought, conservatively, like 50 cookies??? just a giant mountain!
and all cookies were consumed thanks to the heroic efforts of many elementary school and tween children who were primarily watching for any t swift sightings
In a way it was kind of unsettling to just be in a world that only exists in a game. Even if it was only for a matter of frames.
They likely think all gay men are feminine, they perceive a come-on as a suggestion that they have that effeminate air in some way, and if the gay man in question is strongly masculine themselves, the straight man in question probably perceives them as a physical threat and the come-on as a sexual threat
There are straight men who feel emasculated and insulted by women hitting on them directly, or see it as a degradation of the social fabric that is built on traditional gender roles!
Yea this is another one.
Like when there are stop signs one direction but not another.
And a person trying to be nice, stops when they shouldn't and tries to wave you through. Please don't! I appreciate the attempt to be nice but you are just creating a more dangerous and confusing scenario for everyone.
chanus I need to merge really really early, long before the lane closure, and then get pissy at everyone else who is just trying to fill the lanes and not block intersections
done
absolutely nothing will get me back on the routine
there has to be a better way (it's robot bodies)
Yes, there are times you can be polite when driving - letting someone in when traffic starts to move at a light, those kinds of things, but in general the most polite thing you can do driving is always follow the rules of the road / right of way, signal, and most of all be predictable.
fuck this why are they stopping I'm going around and gunning it
and subsequently attempted a murder by exiting their lane, crossing the double yellow line, and blowing thru an occupied crosswalk at 60 mph
"You look nice" my wife will say in public, emasculating me
i dunno what they're doing there
probably bath salts
I understand all this but it's still incredibly pathetic and unworthy of empathy
Absolute cuck
I was reading about uh the new drug shit thats ravaging Sierra Leone. Their entire DEA budget is like 10 dollars. But it is very potent, cheap, easy to make, nonlethal (aka less scary to use than fentanyl)
Idk do you think we could do anything to look good globally and fight drugs before they show up in the G20 lol lmao
Thoughts and prayers?
Silicon Valley had the least predictable drivers of all time. Aggressive and distracted. Beautiful combination.
Florida was bad but it was predictably bad in that very slow reaction time way, plus lots of lifted trucks with the mufflers cut off that you could rely on to do whatever an asshole would do at any given moment.
The empty center of the country was mostly people who drove too fast all the time but handled it mostly fine, until they got to any kind of traffic control system at which point they did a lot of blowing through red lights and stop signs.
South Carolina had the worst drivers hands down across the board. Lord they were trying but there were not succeeding. I have never felt less safe.
HOLY FUCK
10/10 flawless masterpiece
Everyone should play it
I think Id be disappointed if you werent incredibly hillbilly, shirtless in overalls, maybe a straw hat
aren't the left turners blocked or the straight travelers blocked no matter your approach?
theres no turn lane at the intersections in question, so the left turners are blocking a lane of travel until they can go, which in the case of bumper to bumper to bumper traffic is basically never, unless they take advantage of the times while the light is changing to squeeze thru
generally the area where the left turners are going is open so they're blocking the opposing traffic for just an instant vs the very long time they might otherwise block the lane they came from
It's absolutely pathetic
I just think we need to understand the parameters of this kind of homophobia well enough to keep them in a state of panic, stress and despair until their blood pressure kills them
Wife has a good theory about Silicon Valley/SF.
It has a huge immigrant population tied to the tech industry. Its basically a lot of folks from different countries and different rules of the road driving at once making it hard to have a coherent feel or set of rules.
At least that is how she feels after living there for a while.
The ads are one thing but apparently evangelicals are actively going after rock stations and converting them to christian rock stations one by one and it irks me far more than it probably should considering I haven't listened to the radio in like 15 years.
Average driver reaction time is around 1.25 seconds! Plus they need to check if someone is going to zoom across them
