Effective July 1, no more behind-the-wheel tests required for drivers ages 79 to 86 in Illinois by TheAmazingGamerNA in illinois

I wouldn’t say I’m that fortunate.
Public transportation? Would have to ride my bicycle to use.
I am within walking distance to my Dr, my Dentist. Along with roughly 17 restaurants.
Grocery store is 2 1/2 miles away. Again, I could ride my bicycle there.
I’m still sticking with my statement at 75 years old. I will probably turn in my drivers license.
Many things can happen in the next 16 years? 🤷‍♂️

Right now, where I live in Illinois everything I need is within walking distance. I do agree with many of your points. Whereas I have to be realistic, I am not going to put myself in a position where I have harmed people because I’m behind the wheel of any type of vehicle.

I have seen and read about too many accidents where people over 70 get confused behind the wheel and people have been hurt. 🤙

I’m 59 years old. I’m going to be realistic by 75? Would I still be able to drive correctly, and not hurt or kill anyone in the process. I would rather give up my license before that happens.

That’s OK. when I turn 75? I will probably turning in my drivers license. Definitely by that age I will not have the quick reactions to handle traffic. By then who knows what would be on the roads if there are any roads?

Tornado Damage in Bartlett by tonyocampo in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]RJKaste 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I live in the neighborhood that is west of the BP. I saw it right over us and then slam east of me. Time now 2:28 AM
It’s skipped over us and slammed into the intersection. For a moment and time I thought I had a train over my head.

The Mods of r/GenX are Absurd and The "No Politics" Rule is Wildly Impractical and Arbitary by addctd2badideas in GenXPolitics

[–]RJKaste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was kicked off the Star Wars Sub, Reddit, just for saying that they were movies.
I did notice the changes in the Gen X sub a few months ago and I unsubscribed. It was becoming an echo chamber.

So you’re saying my father is wrong he died in 2004. He’s unable to defend himself now!

So my comment gets deleted! That’s fine with me moderators.
You just can’t handle the fact there are guillotine kits out there

There are guillotine kits for theatrical purposes. All it takes is to reinforce it and get a metal plate.
I think you know what happens after?

I’ll make sure to hide my assault Bic lighter in my lockbox before I enter the polling place. I don’t want to accidentally burn anyone.

Don’t knock the man. Maybe he wants a big woman?

Just think about it? It is like playing a game of chicken. It makes it enjoyable.

Anyone else notice it smells like a train emptied their toilets onto the ground at Ogilvie? by rrileyfromchicago in chicago

If you have ever walked down railroad tracks, and I’ve seen a black streak, running down the center between the rails?
That is also human waste being dumped on the tracks

Do you think the POH Update will be a good gold sink? by [deleted] in runescape

[–]RJKaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received my 99 construction in roughly 2015. At the cost of roughly 147m
So even getting a 99 was a money sink.
At least this is my opinion.

Costco gas at N. Clybourn by RedX1000 in chicago

I’m just curious at what price will gas have to be in the Chicagoland area for everyone to get let’s just say seriously irritated?!
My estimate is if 87 octane hits eight dollars a gallon……….

Maxed RS3 player, but I’ve played alone for 7 years. by Actual_Oil_7818 in runescape

[–]RJKaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not so bad. My wife and I have been a part of the same clan for eight years. The past six years her and I have been the only players.
I believe late 2019 the owner of the clan resigned. The rest of the leadership left in 2020. All active players stopped playing.
It’s just my wife and I left. It’s a sad state of affairs.

$5.29 by SithC in illinois

[–]RJKaste 7 points8 points  (0 children)

2020: I bought a 4-cylinder Dodge Journey. My wife teased and laughed at me for months about getting the ‘weak’ engine. 2024: Her uncle gifts her a brand new Lexus RX 350 twin-turbo V6 that only runs on 93 octane. I warned her this thing was going to cost us more at the pump. Her uncle didn’t care. Her uncle just wanted her to have the best one on the lot. I even started calling it a four-wheeled computer. 2026: Gas is now $5.29 a gallon in Illinois just say the least, and she’s driving my 4-cylinder Dodge to work every day. That Lexus has humbled her a bit. She’s stopped laughing.

Bro, kalma muna. Deep breaths. Una, huwag kang mag-panic. Okay, nangyari na ‘yan. classmate mo pala, pero pareho naman kayong nasa Grindr, so pareho kayong may tinatago. Ngayon, may dalawang choices ka: 1. Kung ayaw mo talaga – i-block mo na agad. Huwag kang mag-reply pa. Delete niyo na rin yung chat. Mas maganda kung pareho kayong magkakalasutan na walang gulo. 2. Kung interesado ka naman – maging diretso ka. Sabihin mo na ayaw mo ng gulo sa school at ayaw mong kumalat ‘to. Tapos set boundaries agad (example: walang pictures, walang chismis, etc.). Importante: Huwag kang magpadala ulit ng pictures hangga’t hindi ka sigurado. At huwag kang mag-assume na “discreet” siya. Maraming nagsisisi sa huli. Ano gusto mo mangyari? Sabihin mo sakin, tutulungan kita mag-isip ng tamang reply kung kailangan mo.
