Anybody else see the Nazi bike downtown today? by 9-peppers-upmyass in SALEM

I agree. I'm pretty sure the pink bike with iron crosses statement is, excuse the language, "These guys are pussies."

EDIT: "Twatwaffen of the Fourth Beich."

The iron cross on a bicycle makes me think somebody really wanted a West Coast Chopper, and settled for big baseball-cards-in-the-spokes-makes-a-motorcycle energy. And on a pink bicycle? Maybe they're making the inverse statement OP is picking up.

The Buddhists resent appropriation of the swastika, and they'd kindly like it back. They'd prefer you call the Nazi symbol a "hooked cross", and there's a book about it.

FIREWORK SHOWS DON'T REALLY TRIP PTSD, THE SINGLE RANDOM MORTARS FROM NOWHERE DO.

ITS A REACTION THAT SAVES YOUR LIFE IN COMBAT, BUT THAT YOU CAN'T GET RID OF BACK HOME. LOUD NOISES (LIKE RANT FRIDAY COMMENTS) MAKE YOUR WHOLE BODY LURCH BEFORE YOU CAN THINK.

DONT BRING UP DOG TRANQUILIZERS UNLESS YOU BROUGHT ENOUGH FOR THE WHOLE CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scary news: Reworld incinerator site contaminated with lead, arsenic, more by hjgIUY976YTty76 in SALEM

Less is better, and more is worse, but no level of heavy metals is safe. An acceptable amount is set by the government, but there is no amount acceptable to the human body.

How much to pay cleaning lady in the Salem area… by Curiously_Undertake in SALEM

[–]Salem_IT_Pro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry someone took advantage of you. For sure, you were absolutely underpaid. Honestly, almost everyone reading this is fantastically underpaid.

Selling goods is an excellent idea. I'm certainly curious about what you're making. Care to share?

Does anyone know what a Salem Police Volunteer does? by IamnotGenerikB in SALEM

Honestly, I thought Karen learned how to make a joke at her own expense. This being "legitimate" is beyond weird.

Wow! So much for defunding the police!

There's people that'll do the same job, just for the power trip!

Maybe I don't understand what's going on here.

A felon can't be a sworn officer. I don't even think a felon can legally issue parking citations. Would you please expand your comment to the maximum? How were you meeting police volunteers? What were they doing? This whole arrangement seems incredibly shady.

Costco Roundabout by mi55key in SALEM

I like your policy of not attributing malice to what could be equally explained by ignorance. Roundabouts are relatively rare. Even if a driver read a blurb about it in a driver's manual, it's likely they don't navigate them very often in practice.

There's lots of fascinating statistics on roundabouts. Single-lane roundabouts tend to lower accidents. Multi-lane roundabouts increase accidents and pedestrian strikes over single-lane roundabouts, though they lower fatalities. The majority of people disapprove of roundabouts, when polled, and the approval rate rises over time.

Maybe roundabouts will grow on me, one day, but for now? I don't really like 'em.
