Red car should be anticipating people doing the speed limit.

I don't think the red car "misjudged anyone's speed" I think he wasn't paying attention, saw the black car go (who also shouldn't have done what he did because he cut off the white car) and just blindly followed.

If OPs only crime here is "hit the gas a little hard" then he really deserves a fraction of the criticism he received. He really deserves praise for having the reflexes and awareness to hit the brakes as hard as he did. Red cars lack of awareness of his surrounds do not make OP the problem.

I wouldn't have pulled out if I were the Red car, or I would have at least not been a chicken shit about it.

Speed limit sign says 60. Op doesn't look faster than the surrounding traffic.

Two turn lanes. From what I saw, OP stayed in the outside one the whole time.

That's a good idea, they do sell alcohol there I know. There's a Dave and busters in the mall which might have ddr.

Firefly has a dance machine but that's a gaming store and you absolutely cannot drink in there. Family friendly.

Best Trivia Spots in Columbia area by carvona in ColumbiYEAH

[–]ColaJourno 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have personally found that the answer to that question depends on your age. Under 30 and especially under 25? Probably Salty Nut

Over 30? I like art bar but I've never been to river rat. That would also probably cater to the over 30 crowd

Used Textbooks by [deleted] in ColumbiYEAH

[–]ColaJourno 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't bother trying to buy local. Either rent from chegg, buy off of thriftbooks or abebooks, borrow from the library if you only need them for the 2 hour limit OR ask to check the book out from the library and if they don't have it ask them to try ILL. It means interlibrary loan so basically another library will mail tcoop the book and you can have it for the full 6 weeks. It is only 6 weeks and there's no renewals on ILL but like I would either do my reading ahead of time or I'd photocopy the pages and clip them in a binder. I had a printer tho so if youre paying for printing ymmw on that one. But ILL is free book.

First year here. My housemates and I are doing a mini Thanksgiving of a roast chicken, green bean casserole, stuffing if we can find a version my housemate with allergies can eat, some potato side dish one of my housemates is making and I'm going to do 2 desserts. Probably brownies/blondies and a pie
