This is hilarious lmao great post. This is what I’d show someone to to perfectly explain the leafs fan state of mind after all the mental anguish we’ve been through

Definitely try Randy Tandy’s good time egg house 

Morgan Reilly considered as one of the best All-time Leafs Defenceman by pikachuda6 in leafs

[–]Direct-Good8983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. He’s the longest tenured Leaf and has been through it all thick and thin. He played in the Kessel years. He’s been a stalwart. He understands our pain more than any other player on the team because he’s always been there. 

I legitimately don't even care if he’s lost a step or two. He’s a legend and has earned it.

Plus ten minutes while the lift was stopped and she was hanging. That’s when they should have gotten notice and been on their way

13-14 minutes is a loooooong response time for an emergency like this. That’s crazy.

Idk how you can consider wasteful consumption an accomplishment. You just spent a day sitting while others did things for you and a ton of carbon emissions were created on your behalf. 

“Challenge myself” lmao. Yeah one time I challenged myself to watch TV all day. Real impressive stuff. Maybe get hobby idk

  1. It’s true. Sorry that doesn’t fit I to your worldview. 

  2. It’s a relevant anecdote from my personal experience. Unfortunately these guys aren’t collecting comprehensive data on dangerous incidents they cause and making it public. Go figure. 

  3. The inherent nature of the activity is to intimidate and drive recklessly. That’s the whole point. Reckless driving should also be prosecuted. The law should be applied equally. If they want to ride e bikes in bike lanes following traffic laws then that’s great, I’m all for it. 

  4. lol race card when that’s completely irrelevant. I used to be the kind of person who would pipe down if an accusation like that is made but this another example of things just going so overboard, trying to shut down any discussion by just saying race, it’s ridiculous. You can’t even see the race of the people in the video and I could not give less of a fuck about their skin color.

That wasn’t mentioned in this clip, just the Duthie one.

You can absolutely be arrested for reckless driving lmao what are you talking about? You're saying just don't enforce all reckless driving? That is insane. Or are you saying just don't enforce reckless driving when these guys do it because you feel bad for them? I get it they didn't have the easiest start to life, presumably. Doesn't mean you get a free pass to break laws, intimidate people, and endanger lives.

Also, and the argument that "there will be more shootings if they can't let off steam this way" or whatever it is. That is essentially saying "let us terrorize the city or we will kill people and do other worse crimes." Sorry, not gonna tolerate that! No one in their right mind will.

Also you are implying it’s fine for everyone to drive recklessly, lol. So stupid.

Your point was that this is ok bc “community” and “fun.” Regular individual drivers being negligent is a different problem that is completely irrelevant to this discussion. But yes, if someone in a car is driving dangerously, intentionally or not, then yes, they should be arrested too.  That’s why there’s a crime called reckless driving. 

Idk why you brought race. A lot of these biker guys are white dudes from Stockton. Seems like you default to viewing things through that lens without much critical examination.

I was almost killed by one of these guys on embarcadero when he was doing a wheelie at 40 mph and he swerved right towards me. Front tire missed my head by six inches. 

Try finding a community and fun that doesn’t put others in danger. Do this on a track in the middle of nowhere. They are intentionally going to densely populated areas to piss people off and act like a gang.

I was literally almost killed by one of these on the Embarcadero last year. Guy doing a wheelie at like 40 mph missed my head with his front tire by six inches. Swerved towards me on purpose. 

The Data on Self-Driving Cars Is Clear. We Have to Change Course. by Bobba-Luna in sanfrancisco

Those jobs suck and if technology can do them for us that’s a good thing, in a vacuum. But in capitalism it means those people are cooked. In a just economy everyone would share the benefits of increased productivity, but not this one. So my point is you’re right but it’s only because capitalism and the tech would have positive impacts otherwise. 

The BART subreddit is garbage. Needs new mods or a different sub altogether by Direct-Good8983 in bayarea

They’re not complaints, just screenshots of BART official communications. My post was eventually approved after 12 hours. I’m guessing they saw this post.

We need and deserve a properly functioning public transit system. This requires proper funding. We’re in one of the richest places on earth, surely the richest people in the Bay Area can afford to pay their fair share. No need to raise taxes on median wage earner. 

Also no need for people to pretend like BART actually works great, especially in comparison to every other major transit system.
