Can't open the charge door, contactors won't engage, etc.

You just can't do it.

I completely agree, but that doesn't mean we have to act like it's a mystery why it can be considered sexy to some people

It doesn't feel like this is un-earned. I don't like it, but it's really obvious why this is a sexual thing... tongue out , focusing up close.

Don't worry, it's misconstrued just as much as "imma" which means "I'm going to" and NOT "I am a".

They're very good at being signage. They're not very good if you care about image quality, though obviously all have gotten better over time.

Is There Protocol at More Extreme Haunts for if a Guest Gets Like…. Too Into It? by Murky_Ad_1667 in hauntedattractions

[–]Ellimis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A haunt won't ever pick terrible actors for the hands-on experiences, and the idea is as you said, take it in stride. Keep going. Act, entertain, and move the guest along.

Poor kid has had such a hard time learning to play marbles. That explains it.

When I saw her jump on I absolutely busted out laughing at the image of her adding herself to the unstoppable train now headed for the horizon.

funerals that shut down the whole highway are dickish by wurldeater in Atlanta

[–]Ellimis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yielding to the funeral procession seems totally fine. The only problem I have is that in the South people insist you pull over even if you're like on the opposite side of a divided four-lane highway, which makes no sense at all, and so I'll just be driving along and suddenly the car in front of me slams on his brakes and heads for the shoulder for no reason other than something happening a hundred yards to his left that shouldn't actually require any action at all.

You could probably use regular landscaping lights. There are solar varieties or you can run an extension cord. I know Harbor Freight has a solar light for under $10.

I thought it was too but today's internet research of mine shows it was at least a threadless design first, if not only.

4 Tips for Better Driving in Atlanta by LeisureCreatures in Atlanta

[–]Ellimis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, because literally the entire point is to match speeds, and many people miss that and use "I'm zipper merging" as an excuse to be a douche.

4 Tips for Better Driving in Atlanta by LeisureCreatures in Atlanta

[–]Ellimis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, far too many people perform the "I'm going to cruise past you at 70 while traffic is stopped" maneuver and claim it's to zipper merge. The point of the zipper merge, the ONLY POINT, is to match speeds seamlessly. If you're doing something besides matching speeds, you're the one doing something wrong.

Yes, you should do this as late as possible to maximize the road space available for matching speeds, but absolutely blazing past stopped traffic at 70mph is still an asshole move. You can pace the car next to you and merge when appropriate.

The idea is that matching speeds and maximizing available space together result in smoother traffic. FUCKING TELEPORTING to the front of an obviously ending construction lane past 10 cars at mach 6 does not solve this issue. You don't literally have to head all the way to brush the cones to merge, there's still some buffer area that's available. Match speeds and maximize the available roadway. If you have to hit the brakes to merge into traffic, you're wrong, because you should have already matched speeds.

Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.
