    Pet peeve about driving

    These are the most fun to try and spot at night. Those blue lamps hanging on the sides are powered by kerosene, and have a faint flame flickering inside them. That's all the lighting they have. The white of the buggy blends remarkably well against even a very light mist. At least these ones have...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    My suggested workout for today was at a threshold pace, which I didn't feel like doing as my legs felt like they were made of lead. So I went for a walk with the intention of gently jogging the easier sections. In the end I walked for a mile, jogged half a mile, walked half a mile, then jogged...

    Pet peeve about driving

    I'm not sure if they all have the reflective sign. Laws vary from location to location. The faintly glimmering kerosene lamps don't make them very visible at all. I'm not sure how widespread the white-topped buggies are, but it would depend where you live. I've encountered several of them...

    Pet peeve about driving

    Have you ever encountered a white-top buggy in the evening mist, when all it has for illumination is a couple of kerosene lamps? Being the size of a small car makes them harder to pass than a bicycle because they take up most of the lane, whereas on a road with moderately wide lanes you can...

    How patriotic are you?

    This reminds me of a house on the road where I used to live. We had a single mother with four kids living in a house with her rent paid by the taxpayer. One such taxpayer was a couple I knew who had two kids and lived in a two-bedroom apartment that they had to pay for themselves. Their kids...

    Your "social media" pet peeve

    So many to choose from. The way "social" media results in people going out as a group only to ignore each other and spend the evening staring at their phones. The people who seem to truly believe that their party has all the answers and anyone voting for the other party must be some kind of...

    Pet peeve about driving

    Should things like Amish buggies be required to stay off the roads as well? What about pedestrians?

    Private messages offering gold

    If anyone gets a private message offering them the chance to buy gold don't reach out. I'm sure most people reading know this already, messages like this are scams. I got one from revfrans. I reported it but since it's Sunday morning and there's an outside chance the mods/admins of a Christian...

    Pet peeve about driving

    What a stupid world it is, when driving a multi-ton lump of metal carries an expectation you won't drive it into anyone else. It's ridiculous. There are pedestrians, cyclists, Amish buggies, all sorts of things that you're somehow supposed to avoid killing. What a crazy world we live in.

    USA Even MORE Liberal Hypocrisy

    That's even better than the liberals whining about the gender pay gap when they also say gender is nothing more than a social construct. So all those underpaid birthing persons (or whatever the people we once called women are called today) need to do is identify as male and there is no more...

    How patriotic are you?

    Some people like living in an apartment. Some people like living in a detached house. Some people like living in the center of everything and accept a lack of living space as the price to pay for that. Some people like living somewhere more remote. That's the beauty of capitalism. You can...

    How patriotic are you?

    Why do you need goods for people who live in a pod, fed through a tube with exactly what they need as determined by a machine? All you need is The Matrix.

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    My chest strap is officially dead. It stopped responding the other day. I checked the battery and it's still got a good voltage. When I went to put the battery back I noticed a small piece of metal had broken off from somewhere. I couldn't even see where it had broken away from, or I could have...

    How patriotic are you?

    Stop whining, all you actually need is a small pod with a machine that feeds you exactly what you need to exist. You know, like the little pods in The Matrix. We could easily fit several thousand humans into not much more space than a decent barn. People who want to do more than the absolute...

    Pet peeve about driving

    When I cycled everywhere I always wondered at the people who insisted on passing me, even if there wasn't enough space to do it safely, just so they could get to the red light 50 yards ahead a couple of seconds faster. Particularly when there was a filter lane so I'd pass them again within...

    Budget friendly versions

    For me most clothing brands aren't worth the premium. With a lot of things it's not necessarily that the cheaper versions are "just as good" as an expensive branded product but if something is 95% as good for 50% of the price it's usually worth getting the cheaper one.

    Pet peeve about driving

    I'm not saying slow right down because a cyclist might be ahead. I'm saying people need to drive at a speed appropriate for the speed and conditions. If you've got a blind bend ahead you slow down. If the road is icy you slow down. If it's foggy you slow down. If you get to an area where deer...

    Pet peeve about driving

    Doesn't matter, if you're driving too fast for prevailing road conditions. When it's icy do you slow down, or do you just ignore road conditions and drive whatever number it says on the pole? What if there's a really thick fog and you can barely see the front of the car - do you just drive the...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Sprint repeats today, and it was a bit hotter than I'd prefer for sprint repeats. Today I struggled to maintain the target speed, although for most of the repeats I didn't miss the target by very much. I had to delay a couple of times so I wasn't sprinting all-out downhill, although that meant a...

    Pet peeve about driving

    If you're driving too fast to accommodate other road users who have as much right to be there as you do then yes, you are the problem. It's about driving at a speed suitable for the conditions rather than simply looking at a number on a stick and doing that speed regardless.
