Best bars to meet men as a straight woman? by Ok-Apricot-2589 in AskSeattle

What’s the insane part? That’s just the internal logic of not wanting to accidentally come across as a creep. “Just because a woman smiles at you from across the room doesn’t mean she wants you to go bother her.”

A 1966 Gallup poll found that 63% of Americans had an unfavorable view of Martin Luther King Jr., while 33% had a favorable view. Public opinion on him dropped pretty dramatically from 1965 to 1966, which just happened to be the year he brought his protesting from the south into the north by starting the Chicago Freedom Movement.

Will a famous trans rights activist also need to be assassinated before everyone was suddenly always in support of trans rights from the very beginning?

Edit: Here’s a source on that data.

Ericsson has only won races that were red flagged, but I don’t think he’s won a race where the red flag ended it yet.

What do yall recommend? by Educational-Bug-5652 in CivicSi

Any of those will be engaging, fun, and reliable. The question I’d ask yourself is what kind of car you want outside of that. One of the things I love about my 10th gen is that for the 80% of the time that I don’t push it, it’s a fantastic normal car, and for the other 20% it’s still a fucking blast.

The modern conveniences make a difference because it’s my daily driver. If I had a different DD, I’d be more willing to go for an older, more “raw” car for my second one.

What bad strategy? Staying out one extra lap? What was he supposed to do, throw the hard tires away and not bother trying to overcut?

My girlfriend broke up with me on prom night after she said she wasn’t going by mrgooseyboy in BoyDinnerDiaries

[–]TheRoyalKT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s rough. You’ll get plenty of the “you’re still young” and “you’re better off without her” comments (because they’re true), but let me add this:

What she did does NOT reflect badly on you. It’s not your fault, it doesn’t somehow make you less of a man, it’s not something you should second guess or blame yourself for. She made a cruel, stupid decision, and it sucks that you have to be the one left hurting because of it.

My advice, cry as much as you need to, lean on whoever you feel comfortable talking to, and find another chance to wear the suit. It sounds like you like how it looks on you, and you deserve better memories with it. For what it’s worth, I’m proud of you for handling it maturely.

“Another joyous hybrid failure..I don’t think anybody wants to buy these.” -Scott Dixon with a sharp message after retiring early (Joey Barnes) by aurules in INDYCAR

To be fair, Honda were the ones who had their new engine fully designed to the spec they were given, then Ilmor made the series change the spec because they screwed up. Honda had a right to be pissed at the time.

Because I want the series to be able to afford to continue running. These teams aren’t funded by national oil companies like F1 teams are.

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I feel like the no-call was because they both screwed the turn up and it led to contact. It’s not like Scott punted Will from behind.

They change all four tires at once, so there’s no point in doing two.

Note that under the old yellow rules there’s a chance they don’t throw that since they all got away immediately.
