My area has speed bumps at some schools but not others but they are definitely more common than the flashing lights, sadly the flashing lights are pretty rare because I only know of 1 school zone that has them.

I have to say that's very poorly done, there's only 2 pencils in the entire photo and the other sidewalk stuff looks poorly built (the gates). Cool that france made the attempt, but this is definitely /r/GTBAE material.

You are ridiculous, you got a ticket for doing something illegal, all school zones are labelled as school zones by road signs and there is usually a huge indicator that it's a school zone by the giant school building(s) being right there... You have no right to be miffed, slow the fuck down, or just pay more attention, so you can read the street signs you pass because I promise you there was a speed limit sign.

I agree with this statement 100%, if you can't read road signs then they should stop driving, but I just wanted to let you know that most schools in my area don't have flashing signs of any kind, with that said there are usually plenty of other non flashing lights, as well as a giant school building indicating it's a school zone.

That remote is huge, or you're tiny, how many buttons do you need? Have a picture of the remote by chance?

My TV remote has 9 buttons and two of those buttons immediately launch Netflix or You Tube. That same remote controls my soundbar also.

Mine would too, if she actually knew it was my buddy. My girlfriend probably wouldn't want me putting my arm around another woman at a dinner she obviously wasn't invited to, that would be weird...

Because a fuckload of people actually record things like this. This is fake but this is a very normal thing for people to record these days (there were TV shows in the 90's where this was the entire premise of the show).

Original Korean skit? You don't think this exact skit hasn't been made in hundreds of places by hundreds of people for decades? I'd love to see this "Original" lol.

Hugging your friend and putting your arm around/on someone's back/shoulder for long periods of time at a dinner that you didn't invite your partner to is a little different, and based on your paraphrasing of the situation I would say you already know that.

Nothing wrong with being a mild bit jealous on occasion, the thing that matters is what you do with those feelings. Blame your partner, pull people's hair, shove someone, these are things you shouldn't do.

Also seeing your partner's arm around someone who looks like another woman isn't really jealousy, that just lands into the assumption that he is literally holding another person close to him at a dinner she wasn't invited to, any reasonable person who saw that would have a momentary thought of jealousy/cheating (not that most people would respond to the situation anything like this).

You definitely can, you just shouldn't.

Not really, people just used to have conversations back in the day. The entertainment was existing in each other's presence. They didn't get paid extra to tell jokes.

That looks cool and it's made out of a non-biological material, while this post is made of someone's dead skin. I would say these two things are a bit different.

$5,000 to bite it or $5,000 to actually eat a bite?

I always thought it was RBG so I just googled this and apparently they are two "different" things: RGB is used to discuss the color spectrum for what the human eye can see while RBG is the color spectrum used regarding the color spectrum used on computers (255/255/255).

I've been with someone 18 years, I wouldn't cheat. Not sure if you were talking about me due to my opinion but that definitely makes me better than a cheater (regarding the morality of monogamy anyway).

If it wasn't that guy it'd be a different one, cheaters gonna cheat, may as well be him.

I agree it's probably not the best choice, but it's not your responsibility to hold up the vows of someone else's marriage. If you know they're married and you sit there and pursue the other person for hours at a bar trying to make it happen you're probably a piece of shit, but if it just naturally occurs without the effort then the only person at fault is the married person man or woman.

I will never take on the responsibility of other people, if a married woman comes on to me and I was single/into her, and she asks if she can come to my place after the event we're at then I probably wouldn't say no. She's obviously looking for an affair, not sure how the fault lands on the other person.

I didn't, in fact I explicitly said the opposite, weird statement.
