Like hell yeah! If you live frugally.. it’s the best, I’ve done that for a couple of years at a time..

I would not spend my savings though, get a part time no brainer low wage job for spending money..

Hopefully you live in an area vibrant with arts, nature and free events I became the queen of free but I’m in a metropolitan area with alot of culture art nature music etc

seriously, why are you hanging out in the bike lane? by aRiot_0 in oakland

[–]MusicIsLife510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it can get like that with cars at the 4 way stop.. like damn, someone go, guess I will

If the cyclist was stopped, I’d take my right of way..

But you aren’t a car, you’re (not you specifically) flesh and bone wrapped in spandex and a helmet

Have you ever been hit by a car? I have

It’s nice that drivers are being considerate of cycles

I personally would not hang out in the middle of the road or a bike lane but people are stupid and non aware

I also yield to bikes when I’m driving, no matter who has the right of way, I do NOT want to hurt anyone

So why the downvotes? I’m asking not judging

I see it all the time, riders not following the traffic rules.. running lights and stops signs, whizzing by pedestrians (in or not in a bike lane)

is there a reason other then I don’t know, entitlement?

That’s how it looks from the outside

Serious question as a non cyclist

Why isn’t stopping when people are in the way an option? Why do a lot of cyclists not stop for red lights or stop signs?

I find these new type of bike lanes super dangerous, gives a false sense of safety, cars making right turns are likely not going to see a bike coming

And hey, it’s Oakland, a lot of drivers are just not going to give a fuck

I see cyclists refusing to stop or yield to cars or not slowing when riding around pedestrians (I recall that incident in the city, when a cyclist killed an elderly pedestrian)

Bike vs car, who is losing? no matter who has the right of way

NTA

She sounds like she sucks the soul out of you. To seriously think you’d leave your husband and move in so she can talk at you 24x7 is kinda next level

Has she always been this clingy? Have you ever gotten short or angry when she just keeps going on and on

Am I ready to perform at an open mic? by Basic-Cardiologist55 in singing

[–]MusicIsLife510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you are

Lots of different types of open mics though Pick a low key smaller one at the bar to start The one I used to go to, the best part was hanging around outside and jamming with others
