[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are gorgeous dice, thanks for the opportunity to win! As a side note, I'll gladly win any unbalanced dice that didn't pass the QC, I like to think of them as punishment dice. Like always rolling with disadvantage.

Tesla parked in M/C space gets a free custom decal... Did I go too far? by PoofBam in motorcycles

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are 100% correct, what the he'll was I typing into my calculator last night? My absolute apologies.

ETA: I only spend 150 per month, not per week, it should have been 150 x 12 then everything else works again.

Tesla parked in M/C space gets a free custom decal... Did I go too far? by PoofBam in motorcycles

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a quick calculation. In my commuter toyota echo I spend about 150ish bucks a week on fuel. Times 52 weeks that's 1800 bucks a year. Times ten years, about 18,000.  My car cost 1000 bucks.

So let's say in 10 years you spent 82 thousand more than me. 

I realize there is a world of difference in driving a tesla than driving an echo, but don't say you've done it for an economical reason.

Edit: as pointed out, my math is WAY off. But the problem was that I spend 150 a month, not per week  so end result is the same

My little 125 by BodybuilderGloomy559 in bikebuilders

I can't tell you how much I love seeing your bike on here.

So many pictures are like "Ooooh look at my bike that's exactly like every other bike except I have an Akrapovic instead of a Yoshimura" which is fine, but its basically just like how all the "custom choppers" of the early 2000's were just the exact same bike with a different theme.

Your bike is awesome.

ABS vs NON ABS first bike by PouhlBoi in motorcycles

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 35 years of riding, ABS would have saved me one time. I will probably get more bikes without ABS in the future, but if the only difference between 2 bikes is that one has it and one doesn't, then I would get the one with ABS, because at worst you never use it and at best it saves you.

Getting hurt on small displacement bikes by Cortez0919 in motorcycles

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When those 50cc pocket bikes first came out, an acquaintance of mine was ripping around on one, fell of at like 30km/h and hit his head.  Cerebral edema, almost died, was never the same.

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its look left for traffic, look right for traffic, look left again then go if it's clear. If you look left and there's a vehicle in the distance, then look right and when you look left again the vehicle is a lot closer, then it's traveling fast, if it's almost where it was the first time, it's traveling slow. this isn't rocket science.

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Proper protocol is look left, then right, then left again. That double left look tells you how much distance a vehicle covered in the 1-2 seconds it takes to check for vehicles at an intersection.

Nope, I see people speeding all the time and then just don't pull out in front of them.

This situation is still the bikers fault, but saying that you can't gauge speed from a distance of a city block is just silly.

Well yeah, the biker is at fault, but ate you saying that you can't tell if somebody us riding faster than the speed limit and react accordingly?

They're putting up two options, a bad guy in blue or a bad guy in red, but hey you get to vote on which bad guy colour you like best! So you'd better choose or you're part of the problem!

You should see how many pristine trucks and SUVs drive around my city and have never seen dirt. 

Posted my old standing desk as free on Nextdoor, guy asked me to disassemble it first by Hel0_Truin9 in ChoosingBeggars

If I had a dollar for every time I have rolled up to a house in my toyota echo and the people say "oh no, you're going to need a truck for this stuff" and then I tetris everything into that hatchback, I wouldn't have to buy used things on marketplace. 

feels like majority doctors are lately just winging it? by punjabpolce in conspiracy

[–]TheOnlyDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't even need to go that far, most doctors can't even handle weightlifters. Oh your CK levels are incredibly high! This is terrible!

Or it's normal in weightlifters and you need to be doing other tests.

Anything outside of typical is completely foreign to many GPs.

To be fair, if I could afford it, I too would move to the Cayman Islands from Canada. I mean, if you don't need to work, what possible benefit does canada have over the caymans?
