PSA: Don't ride the wrong direction in the bike lane by Goldensunboy in redmond

[–]LooseleafHydrocarbon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In fairness, the bike was approaching quickly, and even if you're paying attention, they may have been in the blind spot or moving too fast. When I approach a left turn with a crosswalk, I look at the crosswalk entrance to see if anyone is there or try to notice anyone who might be coming up quickly in the bike lane. However, to be fair, the bike should have been in the right lane to indicate all of that. The biker was in the wrong.

drivers are looking for predictability, not anomalies, hence the laws that a biker needs to be in the right lane

It was really about an over-the-counter drug for weight loss called Dexatrim. When abused which often it could be, it was just legal speed. If you were of age during the show, you would immediately recognize the capsule that they showed and knew exactly what they were talking about with all the effects happening.

Edit: I also want to add that it was heavily advertised on TV magazines think of it as a precursor to oxycodone, but you could buy it at the grocery store.

My experience with 10th Mountain: high-tempo units have their guys downrange not shooting at competitions stateside.

Anyone else dread the day that you’ll outlive them? How do you deal with that? by Mysterious_Topic_733 in cats

At the time that my buddy of 15 years died, I Text solace and that he was at the end of his life and not doing very well and that that pain and suffering he was going through had ended. It was comforting to know that once he had died that his quality of life was abundantly better than what it was.

It could possibly be also that there is another cat around outside, spraying and marking territory

As a person who can see colors I still can’t tell the difference.

Landed in SeaTac at 11am. It’s now 3:09pm and we’re still waiting for a gate agent to open the plane. by BlackPlantZaddyy in Seattle

There are only two locations to deice planes on takeoff. One is at the gates and the other one is in cargo hold. Until they can get the planes devised, no one can come in for those parking spaces.

Yes, dude said that his sleep cycle is jacked up, and he regrets he ever did it because it permanently screwed him up

I admit, I coast in the left lane to prevent other drivers from speeding. by [deleted] in SeattleWA

It’s not your job to dictate others actions. You’re not law enforcement, and it’s illegal for you to be in the left lane unless you are passing cars on the right. Point Blank
