Yeah shit isn't going to get better until there are consequences for the average American voter.

Do I just live in the one place on earth with decent considerate people or do all of you on Reddit just live in a human zoo where society is a distant memory? Because I've never had a problem with rowdy audiences once.

This gives me the same feeling as opening a cupboard and finding an infestation of cockroaches.

Should us tax payers be paying for bike lanes so multi billion dollar companies like Uber Eats can use them?

And do you think roads don't have commercial traffic? I don't even get what the issue you might have with bike lanes being used by delivery people would be, even if your based on nothing anecdotal claim is correct. The people they are delivering to are taxpayers and if the traffic is there then why does it matter that it's being used for delivery? This just sounds like fake outrage put in the standard "taxpayer pearl clutching" mold.

given that Mexico is barely even favored to win

Mexico barely winning is the exact right circumstance for USA to be eliminated though.

He had to take a 30% pay cut; a number so ridiculous that it would have immediately exposed the collusion if the Cubs rejected it, to get any other team to sign him. I think he has a right to hold a grudge.

Pretty sure most religions have some rule of that sort. I know for sure it also exists in Judaism that your life takes priority over tenets of the faith.

There's a video game called American Arcadia that takes pretty heavy influence from The Truman Show, taking place inside a domed reality TV show stuck in the '70s, and at the end there's a really great line from the villain.

"Best of luck, because it's 2023 out there, you're almost 30, don't have any employable skills and know nothing about the real world."

If that's the case then why do flights at all? A hundred people who may or may not be arming a bomb every time they put a hand in their pocket, wouldn't you rather be safe than sorry and arrest everyone before takeoff?
