Clitoria? I've eaten there a few times. I seem to remember the fish...

It's not just New Jersey; it's the entire U.S.

Sorry, but it's basically a nation of "Oh, look at that cute little kitten!" sweethearts that turn on a dime and become the absolute worse "fuck that guy" jerks.

And I can't count the times I've almost been mowed over by bicyclers who were riding on the cross street and abruptly decided "I'm a pedestrian on wheels now" and joined the walkers in the crosswalk while still racing through on their bike.

Yes. Or a fat finger pressing down on a ladybug. Or also a ball sack and a penis with weirdest tip ever.

This knot has it all.

The fascist safety offices here won't let us stand on the top rung either. Fascists everywhere!

Nah, more like 115mph on the German autobahn--outside of the speed limit zones, of course.

Imagine considering someone 'sheeple' for not wanting to end up paralyzed--that's the most NJ'est thing I've read on here in a long time.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) was passed to prevent workers from being killed or otherwise harmed at work. The law (yes, the law) requires employers to provide their employees with working conditions that are free of known dangers.

Ladder Basics:

1. When on a ladder, never face away from it.
2. Never stand on the top rung of the step ladder.

That top rung is, at best, for your hands, not your feet. Ladder too short? Get a longer fucking ladder.

Following instructions in a work setting or obeying the laws of the country/state/country/city you live in isn't being "pro-fascist/authoritarian". It usually means you're a good worker and a decent resident in your community.

So, please tell us more about these horrendous situations in which he's told to do something in a certain way and he actually does it that way.

Well-played!

I'd be reluctant, too. If I were asking them, I'd be doing the ol' "theorectically speakinggg...because this happened to a friend..." routine. Good luck!

Everything I can find online about your type of situation (with many of the notes written by lawyers) is "only your insurance company can answer that question".

But the overwhelming majority say your insurance will "probably not" be able to see it and "probably won't" increase your rates based on it.

Universally, the lawyers say "the officer cut you a huge break" and could've given you serious problems had they chosen to.

If you're given a worse ticket (improper turn, failure to signal, failure to maintain lane, failure to stop or yield, failure to keep right, or any other similar ticket), it's exactly your type of ticket that lawyers hope to get your ticket brought down to. But you were fortunate enough to get that golden ticket handed to you without having to pay for a lawyer!

I see a tune brewin'.

AT&T actually sells a lot of stuff in their online shop--but not the vinyl gloves.

It was very wise. Repairing or replacing a cash register is not cheap (and not having a cash register because the thief thought it was full so he stole it) makes it that much harder to reopen and get back to business. Anything a business owner can to reduce the potential damages is a good thing.

Actually quite common for the smallest retail businesses to do exactly that: leave their cash till/tills open and visible when the business isn't occupied. It's a very real and rather effective intrusion/theft deterrent.

That's exactly what I'd expect anyone who got banned on reddit (and not only on a sub-reddit) to say.

Careless driving involves negligence on the part of the driver such that they're endangering other people. But you were even a step further, actually hitting another vehicle. That could even be considered reckless driving.

But even at the lower level of careless driving, you could've actually ended up with jail time or hundred of dollars in fines (maybe you did?), so I say, be glad you didn't hurt anyone and just own this thing.

Yes, take a defensive driving course to remove the points. They'll go away on their own in time, if your record stays clean, but I wouldn't chance that--if you don't know what happened in this case, you can't perfectly predict your future driving, either.

As for fighting it in court, I'm having a hard time imagining anyone even thinking about that--considering the entire circumstances. You have no witnesses who would vouch that you didn't hit the other car. The police officer might have statements from you which might interfere with any defense you might try to bring. And, if you lose in court, I'm not sure, but I believe you'd have court costs and possibly a higher fine and maybe that jail time that I talked about.

But if you want to take that route, you can google "NJ traffic attorney" or check locally for someone to consult with. But I'd say it's a clear waste of your time and possibly your money.

I see what you did there...

You just asked a local trivia question!

Please tell us there was more stuff in that huge box.

Do want.

When kept up, they're badass.

But between now and next week there's gonna be a doozie!

Because shovels made 20 years ago generally last longer than shovels made in the last five years or so.

I realize you've used it correctly "by the book", but when you really think about it, does that phrase actually make sense to you? Because it never has with me.

We are how we are. And we have an age. That age progresses and some of us keep pace with it, some of us stay below it, and some of us, unfortunately, go above it.

In the case of Mr. Reynolds, he's managed to let age continue higher while not staying at pace with it.

So, in my mind, what you're saying now is, he's finally catching up with his age...

At least that's what my mind does with it all.

Why do I have the feeling he actually flew?…
