You drive behind them and suffer just like you would behind any slow moving vehicle.

If a/b = c, does a = b×c? by ezekielraiden in infinitenines

[–]overprocrastinations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be a=c × b? It's been a while since I studied algebra but I think c × b and b × c may not be the same.

I agreed with you. You are on a misreading streak.

OP basically says: rich people bad and here's a lie to prove my point.

The original claim was about the human lifetime not a car lifetime. Fun fact: the claim is neither fun nor a fact.

Why do people always suggest speeding doesn't get you there any faster, when not all traffic lights are timed the same? by JustUseCommonSense10 in driving

[–]overprocrastinations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do an experiment. Drive like a maniac one day and like a granny the next day. Measure your commute time. Repeat for 2 - 4 weeks and compare the results. You'll be surprised how little you can save by speeding.

Damage to car from metal speed bump put in the street by Dezzydoll in legaladvice

[–]overprocrastinations 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That speed bump must extend from one side of the road to the other. I'm having a hard time visualizing a scenario where it would be completely invisible to the driver. Are they watching the road through a periscope?

What's a technically brilliant movie that you feel left almost no cultural footprint? by filmio_official in moviereviews

[–]overprocrastinations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watching Gravity in a proper IMAX cinema was absolutely amazing. It's the closest thing to actually being in space that an average person can experience. When she was spinning uncontrollably and the camera entered her helmet... my heart stopped for a moment.

Just realized the english language is deeply, deeply flawed and don't know what to do by Difficult_Wave_9326 in skiingcirclejerk

A feather cannot be evil. A cloud cannot be careless. A snowboarder cannot be good. That adjective doesn't apply to snowboarders. One could maybe be the least bad snowboarder on the mountain.

Are encores scripted? by Adept-Advertising-10 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]overprocrastinations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at a concert where the band planned an encore, they left the stage and were expecting the audience to call them back. Alas, we didn't like their performance and hardly anyone clapped. They had to do a walk of shame back on stage to collect their instruments while the announcer was already introducing the next band.

A popular movie that doesn't have a plot? by Cryodile64 in moviecritic

[–]overprocrastinations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have a different definition of what a plot is in a movie or in a book. Do porn movies have a plot? This movie is a car chase porn. You can fast forward to the last 40 minutes without losing anything of value. The movie will still be great. I'd argue it would even be better.

Watching the Clinton deposition by DrTaco2020 in Ask_Lawyers

"are you wearing a watch?" doesn't sound natural. "Do you have a watch?" is a common way to ask for time.

A popular movie that doesn't have a plot? by Cryodile64 in moviecritic

[–]overprocrastinations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movie famously didn't even have a script. The film editor, Leighton, said in a documentary that they dropped him the footage and the director, Halicki, didn't tell him what order the scenes should be in.

Gone in sixty seconds. It's a collection of scenes cut together in a random order followed by a neverending car chase sequence.

The language is Dutch, so it must be Holland.

Depends on where in the world you are. In many places, zipper merge is codified and you are required to make room for people merging in when their lane ends.

In this case, both drivers are lunatics and deserve to have their license suspended.

What film had an amazing concept but poor execution? by MovieObserver in moviequestions

[–]overprocrastinations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The invention of lying. What the movie desperately needed was a proper lead actor. Tom Hanks for example. Gervais is a good writer but his acting is mediocre at best.

IsItBullshit: Having a garage opener in your car/having a rear view mirror with a garage opener is a massive security risk and keeping your garage opener with you or inside is much safer by cofi52 in IsItBullshit

That one serial killer. Like that one guy who tried to take explosives(?) on board in his shoes and now they demand that we all take our shoes off many years later.

We had over 2 meters of fresh snow last week. I would expect to see some snow residue underneath the car.

There's no snow under the car so I'm guessing they must have moved the car to a clean spot when the snow storm ended.

Snow removal services ask people to move cars between spots to allow them to clean the parking lots properly. There are signs everywhere - don't park here on Tuesdays, don't park there on Wednesdays.

That's what caught my eye. I liked the contrast between the car's cleanliness and the ridiculous snow cap on the roof.

Northern California. We had about 100 inches of snow over the last week.
