rug_burn OP , to memes in great car advice

Fuck, I always thought this was a myth, but I guess not… from my extensive three minute Google search, turns out it’s 100% real

rug_burn , to memes in Thanks, Windows, I didn’t want my computer to turn off, anyway

Literally fucking happening to me now. Fuck my company for pushing updates on Friday

Uh, ever heard of commercial and residential zoning? You can have a Bodega down the street and a big box store 5 miles away. Both can coexist in the same city. Unless you’re talking in absolutes, which seems like pretty poor city planning. Not sure where you’re from, but in the US such things exist.

Loving the insults too, BTW. Keep them coming!

rug_burn , to memes in O.o

This cracked me the fuck up, thanks for that!

rug_burn , to funny in Wow that aging reversal is amazing

Not gonna lie, you had me in the first half

Oh, I see now. Sorry about that. Yes it’s possible to use public transport in cases where you don’t need much and the time necessary isn’t outlandish. I think I was conflating several messages in my head when I responded to yours. Glad to see some people are able to be civil here.

Public transport simply isn’t suitable enough for them.

Ding dong, you’re wrong. Walkable cities are more accessible for everyone than the carcentric dystopia.

And you literally quoted someone talking about public transport, so there’s that. Can’t wait to see what fun things you come up with to call me this time.

Walkable isnt “walkable” for someone who has trouble walking. Brainwashed? Hmm. Explain. And twat? There’s two reasons you’d use that word, you’re either European or Australian, and if that’s the case, I’ll take twat and wear it as a badge of honor. The other case is you’re American and around my age or older where that word would be in our vernacular, in which case, at least you didn’t call me a cunt, because then I’d be really sad.

Cities could be so much better, and we know this because there ARE cities that are better. It just takes effort and time.

And eminent domain, to take the land to build that infrastructure. And money. Lots and lots of money. And way more time than you think. Effectively having to level homes for miles, grade the surface and then, finally getting to build this utopian vision of public transportation, which will then need to be fed, sorry, maintained, by taxes that will shoot through the roof. Then, the displaced will need a place to stay, so enter yet more eminent domain to take more property to build vertical, because there is a finite amount of land. And this would be jn just one small to mid sized US city.

Look, I’m happy for anyone who’s happy in how they do their daily. You chose it, and it works for you. Some people don’t chose that life, and it doesn’t work for them. I respect your way of life, it should only be fair that you respect mine. I’m not driving a 3500 turbo diesel that gets 12 gallons to the mile, stomping on the gas “just because I like the sound” and throwing cheeseburger wrappers out the window.

Difference is, I’m not trying to force my way of life on others…

rug_burn , to memes in Public Transit my beloved 😍

I don’t mean this the way it’s going to sound, but…

I’m happy it works for you, and you’re happy with it. It doesn’t work for everyone.

Ding dong, you’re wrong.

I have an older retired mother who uses a cane and can easily move about once she gets into the store by using the cart to stabilize herself. Taking public transportation is a no-go where she lives, because the one thing that I haven’t seen mentioned here yet, is crime. As an older woman with a walking aid, she’s the prime target for criminals, who also know old and elderly tend to not trust banks and use cash.

I do what I can to help and support her, however this is not always feasible, and in her words, she’d “be damned if she wasn’t able to get out of the house and do her damn shopping herself”.

And she’s able to drive just fine. But I guess she should give up her car, her freedom, so you can feel better about, whatever the fuck you think it is that getting rid of cars will fix.

You too buddy! Would enjoy having rational conversations, even note elsewhere in this thread that I’m taking the time to read American Holocaust, as I told myself “why should I ask someone to do something I’m not willing to do myself?” Granted, being close to 50 years old, it likely won’t change my mind, but I reason that if I do read this book, maybe I can better understand other’s worldview, and maybe, just maybe we can have civil conversations instead of the stupid fucking bickering that’s been going on in a… wait for it… meme thread!

Oh wait, my fault. I was responding to your comment “We are still here”

Wasn’t sure which part of my anaolgy you weren’t getting. Now we can peacefully argue about that instead.
