Lmao! fucking reddit I swear.... Yup, legally parallel park just to grab a coffee and forget to feed the meter? PPA is hellfire on your ass. Assholes like pictured above? PPA is sleeping like a baby.

Of all things I wish I could do out of the entire harry potter series; it would be that one scene where the busdriver shrinks the double decker to squeeze between traffic. If I had that ability I would be fine with not being able to Ingota Leviosa or whatever.

This is what I think. Plus it’s just like herd mentality for me. I feel safer knowing that if I go onto a subway in nyc at any time it will be packed with people. In Philly, rush hour might even have just 1 or 2 people. And I’ve just been targeted one too many times already. I no longer take the train here.

Yes I do feel safer. Despite what you see on social media. I am in nyc very often and I’ve never seen anything. Often the cars are very crowded and most people look decent just trying to pass the time.

In Philly, I’ve almost been attacked. The cars are always empty except for questionable looking people. Idk if it’s my luck but every time I ride the BSL it’s empty except for a few very shady looking characters and of course they try to talk to me. I’m just over it.

I’m not sure the context of what you said but there’s way too many people accusing that the victim may have started it or it was their fault in some way. Lots of the dialogue really is just victim blaming.

As the page suggests: “a place for women to spread the word about potentially harmful people on the streets in Philly.” And it is exactly that. I haven’t seen any evidence of trying to stir panic or an agenda. Every post has been legitimate as far as I’ve seen.

Just like Bill Burr said in his latest special back in the day you had like 10 minutes tops to act crazy in public before they’d throw you in a van. They just don’t do it anymore. I get that the practices back in the day were horrible and inhumane but a solution does need to happen. They’re a danger to others and themselves and harms the city as a whole. How does the richest country not have a way to handle this in a humane way?

I can imagine most breweries. They just seem to always have giant Jenga and other games to keep the kids busy. I’ve noticed families pretty much every time I go to a brewery.

Not when it’s raining. Everyone is driving slower. 40 mph on the right lane in heavy downpour is normal and not a hazard. You are driving at the same pace as everyone else.

If you’re driving 40 for some reason on the highway and it’s a clear day then yes you are a hazard.

Exactly. Thank you. There really is no benefit to having hazards on and if anything it’s a danger.

In Florida it is almost embarrassing to have the hazards on. Here, I feel like I’m the weird one for not putting them on during a light drizzle but I’m going to keep singing my truth. Y’all are wrong

Why?

I’ve always understood as not only the law in most states but also common sense to only turn hazards on if… well if there’s a hazard. And if you’re stopped on the side of the road. No need to drive with them on if you’re not indicating a hazard to others. If it’s raining. We all know it’s raining. Just keep driving or don’t if you can’t handle it.

I was threatened and almost physically assaulted on the BSL. Luckily I live close enough to everything and don’t mind an Uber if I need to but I refuse to ride the septa until they fix it up. Too many people getting away with too much.

Also, after I was almost assaulted there was a rape at gun point and a shooting on the bsl a week later so I’m good. The half-bred cretins can have it. Let them ruin it like they ruin everything else.
