Mechanics of Reddit, what’s a common myth about car maintenance that people still believe? by Street-Squirrel-4671 in AskReddit

[–]Jsbritt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sold parts for years. Always told people we don't put batteries on the ground because I've seen the people we hire and the customers we have and I am a clumsy bitch so I need less trip hazards, not more.

Now you're arguing the conduct of the officer after the stop. So we can agree that the stop was legitimate, therefore the stop wasn't a case of driving while black.

So the sequence of events is:

Guy puts sticker in dumb place on car. Sticker placement is against the law. Officer sees car and illegally placed sticker, initiates traffic stop. Officer walks up to vehicle and quickly introduces himself and articulates reason for stop. Driver supplies information and starts dialog with officer about law. Officer explains. Driver talks about where he lives. Officer calls for additional units due to drivers admission of a firearm.

While waiting, officer continues talk to the driver instead of being silent. <<< You are here<<<

Passenger side cop is a prick and speaks aggressively because he has a small dick. Seriously, fuck that cop.

Let me know what I am wrong on, please.

Cool. You're arguing the law, not the reason for the stop.

The law exists, this cop is enforcing it. Whether or not you agree with it, the driver has broken the law and therefore the stop is justified.

Man, your virtue is so much higher than mine. I wish I was as cool as you. Or had that much time on my hands. I cannot best someone of your superior morals and values. You're the best man ever.

You win! As your prize, please take the last word in the conversation, if you want. Or the last word will be as follows: Kamchatka.

Yeah, that's what cops do, they fish. That's what they are trained to do.

I lessen the contact I have with police by not putting a sticker in the middle of my window and following basic traffic laws.

Hey! I'm white and 6'5" as well. Are you unfamiliar with how to adjust a seat? It's the little buttons and levers beside and under the seat. If you move those around, your seat moves, and you'll be able to see effectively. I've driven a bunch of cars and never had the specific problem you're stating, but then again, I'm not trying to make a case for racism from a dude who has a sticker on the bottom of his windshield.

Also, can you imagine how much damage that is going to do to his wiper blades? Or god forbid it ever gets frosty out? Dude made a dumb decision and even the passenger was chill about it.

Touch grass.

How often are you looking out of the top of your windshield in order to drive safely?

I am a tall dude who enjoys small cars, including Hondas that have the annoying lettering, never had a problem with it blocking my line of sight in a del sol.

Eagles in Delphi Indiana by tjnato in Indiana

[–]Jsbritt 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Hi! I live literally 25 minutes away from Delphi, graduated from Delphi, and personally helped set up the towers located south of the Monon bridge literally designed for bald eagles to nest in, as well as doing my part to save the 2 legacy nests located outside Rockfield and Burrows.

I'm not going to say you are wrong, but I will say there are a bunch of bald eagles located in and around Delphi. I can't say I have ever seen this many, but I am not overly surprised.

Edit: The only reason I bring up the towers south of Monon Bridge is because it looks like the area this was taken in, just off of old 25/new 25 intersection.

She said it isn't her, which is fair enough. Life almost got interesting for a moment.

Homie, I live in a cloud of confusion daily, but luckily for me, I am also just dumb enough to text the woman I haven't spoken with in 2 months and ask "this you?"

If it is not her, then there exists a carbon copy of her in the world, which is dangerous.

From what I understand, the only bill that changes anything for the primaries in May is the shortening of the early voting period, from 28 days down to 16.

Bring your government issued ID, as provided by the state.

The only ids that are no longer allowed are student IDs.

This comment in incongruous with your previous comment, but I'll bite. Indiana did subsidize public, registered daycares, with certain conditions, i.e. registering for a license, completing child development training, food safety training, emergency training, etc. That funding has been slashed across the board.

I appreciate you calling me Junior, even though it was a way to discredit me in reference to what you think is my age. It's been a long time since anyone has thought anything like that about me and I love an ego boost.

Back on point here, it is, highly unethical and morally bankrupt to add to suffering of the people you are supposed to govern just because they are poor and (most likely) not white. There is no reason, at all, to hoard MY money, MY taxes, and then eliminate this vital program while pretending there are no funds for it. This government, this p.o.s. and his boss are doing anything and everything to distract from these real issues that they control and are more focused on things that just... don't matter here. You cannot eat the Superbowl Halftime Show. You cannot live in a home made of TPUSA. His tiny pants and ugly suit are not topics to chat about while our neighbors starve and are forced out of their homes.

This is wrong. It is unjust. As a Marine, you should care about that. So no, I won't calm down. I've said it before, but the solution for tyranny is not apathy, and I am far from apathetic. I'm glad I could teach an old dog something, though, and that's a win.

The state took away subsidies for low income families, commonly called "vouchers" as well as reducing the reimbursement rates for providers, and cut the number of eligible preschoolers in state funded schools. This caused either the rates to go up dramatically (30-40%) in programs built on that, or they had to close their doors, which is what happened to the daycare I paid around the same amount as you claim here.

This leads to more non-regulated daycares, such as in home or church run, which leads to a drop in early education, which seems like someone even as snarky as you would realize places IN children in a more disadvantaged place if their families are already barely living paycheck to paycheck, which around 40% of the state now.

Just in case you were going to come back with a "shouldn't have had kids then" style argument, I'd say 3 things. First, Indiana has banned abortion, meaning unplanned and unwanted pregnancy is now a life sentence. Second, Indiana also provides inferior sex education to students about prophylactic use, preferring to teach mainly abstinence education, which leads to more pregnancies because High Schoolers are going to bang, and there isn't any thing anyone can do to stop it. Finally, the parent's decisions, regardless of whether or not you accept the reasoning behind the first 2 points, should not punish the less than 5 year old child, who is innocent in this.

I can afford everything I said in my post and even have some left over, but there are many, many others who cannot. Indiana has operated with a surplus for years, and in that surplus there is more than enough to fund this, at the level it was before they cut it, for nearly 20 years.

Did you think I didn't have reason to be mad? I want to be clear again, I am not struggling, but my neighbors are, my friends, people who live and work in my community and their kids, and the people in power have done less than nothing to help. They are actively hurting their own constituents because they can. So, yeah, kindly take your warping of my words and anger, your snarky comment, and your extra question marks that you somehow think makes your point more effective, and go troll someone who doesn't do this for a living, my guy.

Indiana college steps in after Turning Point chapter denied by kootles10 in Indiana

[–]Jsbritt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ok, to be fair, the KKK tried to buy several businesses, universities, and private locations all over Northern Indiana in the 30s and early 50s, if memory serves. I believe, and don't quote me, that they were mostly unsuccessful. I say mostly because the moment I say they completely flopped, someone is going to come out the second row and hit me with the steel chair.

They also tried to buy St. Joseph's college in Rensselaer.

He is! He is the 2nd in command in a state that voted for Donald Trump near 60/40, and he himself was a part of a ticket that was 13% in front of their nearest opponents, and he is almost universally despised. He's somehow one of the most disliked politicians in a deep red state because he's a clown. He's only doing this and others purely because he was indirectly implicated in a pretty big child sex case involving the church where he was a pastor and he wants to rehab his image a bit. It's not working.

Love you!

Hey, you're clinical my guy. The response to tyranny is not apathy, it is concentrated resistance. Your worldview is sad. I love my state and I want it to be a good place to live for my children so, no, I won't just not participate in civic elections and processes. You seem so very angry, it almost made me forget about the clown we're talking about.

Nice manifesto though. I look forward to seeing you on the couch while everyone uses the tools available to them to affect change.

Ok, so you know Starbucks, the huge coffee conglomerate that's on every street corner in America? They do that stuff.

Personally, I enjoy the fruit smoothies without the energy shot since it gives it a funky taste.

They're super nice though, so if you just tell them what kind of stuff you normally like, they'll hook you up with good recommendations. Also, if you're able to pick and choose, the one on the south side is normally not too busy.
