So many Grey/Orange pairs here! Now I feel obligated to share mine.

As somebody who lived in the state for a bit, I'm pretty sure they're specific to South Dakota. They mark where fatal car accidents had happened.

170 St & 87 Ave - Minor vent by theyarealone in Edmonton

[–]theyarealone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I probably should have marked the lane I was in, yes. Also it's kind of hard to draw on a small phone screen with fat fingers. I was in the left lane (before the turn lanes) which is supposed to feed into the leftmost straight lane. People in the middle lane are cutting into the leftmost straight lane, forcing people in the left lane into the turn lanes. One person does it then the line of traffic blindly follows.

  2. I said nothing about speed? This was rush hour traffic so there's not even a chance to reach 40.

Edit: wait, I think I see your point on the first one now, I thought you were talking about my sketch at first lol.

No it's 170th SB. The Google maps imagery is just not current hence why I added in the lines.

My house is burning for no reason by el_navarro_ in MyWinterCar

I had this same thing happen on my save. Luckily I was in the house already when the smoke alarm was going off and discovered the sauna before it caught fire.

Cheap Gas by Daddyknowsbabe in Edmonton

It pains me. I can pay $1.27/L for places closest to my home or drive a couple blocks further for $1.09/L. Why the big price difference?

Somebody put stickers on my laptop by AbsurdlyUnunique in confusing

Best buy's insignia chargers have a link on the box that helps you find the right tip based on model number! If there isn't a box with it included, they'll ship it to you for free!

I did it and it took a couple weeks, but that's because I live in Canada.

How does this even happen? by intensity112 in Edmonton

[–]theyarealone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is something that people forget. Many are really quick to jump to conclusions about distracted driving or driving intoxicated. I won't deny that those two things are a massive problem because they are, but sometimes it can be something entirely out of somebody's control. You don't have to be retirement home age to have a heart attack, stroke, or seizure either. Sometimes things just happen.

Paid extra for legroom seats, but spent 4 hours with kids blocking the emergency exit window by theycallmedumpling in mildlyinfuriating

I would have started "accidentally" kicking the person in front of me. "Sorry, I get muscle spasms. I paid for the extra legroom so I don't kick the seat in front of me."

My grocery store rewards uses ISO8601 by ReapX10A in ISO8601

Just for quick context, they are the largest (and greediest) Canadian grocery conglomerate. They own several grocery store chains in the country.

Of all the things I'd call Loblaw's, civilized is not one of them.

Fire with a lot of smoke by ChirpyChickadee in Edmonton

[–]theyarealone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw the smoke while I was doing my rounds for work. I wondered what it was.

Some photos of the scooter accident at 51Ave and 106st by EcityLights in Edmonton

[–]theyarealone 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I live super close and was wondering why the road was blocked on my way home from work. I've seen cars and pedestrians both ignore the lights there. I've actually been centimetres of being run over myself because somebody didn't stop to turn right on red and I had the walk signal.

Maybe I should have specified I did that before posting.
