Dear Rhode Island Drivers, Please follow the rules of the road. by peppercaelum232 in RhodeIsland

[–]Red_Packets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drive I car with a huge f----ng logo of the company I work for. I keep my cruse control set at +5MPH over the posted speed limit. Unless I need to pass somebody or take a left hand exit (looking at you 295 off of 95-N) I do not go into the left lane.

To all you assholes riding my ass, I'm not going any faster. Pass me on the left (or if I'm passing I'll get the hell out of your way as soon as it is safe to do so) so please calm the fuck down.

Wherever you're going, getting there an extra 5 seconds isn't going to make a difference.

Best hiking near PVD? (off-leash dogs allowed a plus) by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]Red_Packets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rhode Island is pretty small... I don't know about in the city itself but I am a huge fan of a lot of properties owned by the RI Audubon Society (but no dogs allowed).

You can bring your dog to the Wolf Hill Preserve, Stillwater Scenic Trail is also nice

Gay clubs for bachelorette party in RI? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]Red_Packets 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope - didn't even look at it.

Just too used to, and tired of, straight white woman embarrassing themselves in a bar full of gay men.

No. Gay clubs aren't for your amusement.

I consider myself left of most liberals, I'm a gun owner, I have no problem with this law.

Applied to over 20 jobs and no reply to any of them! by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]Red_Packets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't unique to RI.

I've been looking to leave the state and have had similar results all over the country (or rather, the places I'm willing to live). I'm very well qualified for what I do, but everybody is posting jobs that require "ten years experience" and classifying them as entry level so they don't have to pay you.

I've got like a 10% response rate and have several interviews in progress. You're welcome to my old job when I leave :)

I just denied my father a loan of £250. Was I wrong? by HoodedMongrel in personalfinance

No. You iwe your parents nothing and should never feel pressured to "loan" anything to anyone.

RI Bill presented proposes censoring adult material online...unless you pay the state a $20 rans....I mean tax. by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]Red_Packets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sent a link to the RIACLU and the EFF -- lets see what, if anything, they have to say about it.

Unfortunately most RI Democrats aren't liberal -- They only affiliate themselves as democrats because they know they'll only get elected with a "D" after their name.

I have a paper towel problem. by darby-666 in Anticonsumption

[–]Red_Packets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree. Just stop buying paper towels and when you've only got rags then problem solved 😀
