I’m assuming this is a U.S. thing, but to the people who have the right of way turning right while I’m trying to turn left across oncoming traffic, when you pause to “let me go” while I’m timing my turn behind you, you can go #uck yourself. You’re going to get me T-boned.
This just happened to me moments ago, and it happens all the time. Why are people so scared? If I’m timing the turn, just keep moving. Don’t stop and try to be nice, just go, you idiot.

We always release sizing charts and publish them in the appropriate thread on this forum before we release new product. Asking us when we will publish a sizing table, does make us do it any quicker, just diverts us (potentially from measuring the bloody things) to type "Yes, when we have measured them"....

@northsouthdenimguy i get you on this one.
moral of the story: when you have the right of way - TAKE IT. they exist for a reason, and its usually so that everyone is operating on the same assumptions on who to prioritize. When you give it up, you risk generating an crash by disrupting the flow.

@goosehd I usually assume I am invisible on the road, yet I try to be predictable and communicate intent with plenty of lead time. Always maintain a plan of evasion though.

What’s the deal with people putting their phone on speaker at full volume in public or watching YouTube videos out loud with no earbuds? Are people really that ignorant of personal space and the fact that nobody else wants to hear their conversation with their baby mama or whatever they’re doing?

@northsouthdenimguy It's the new way to get attention, normal days you both would've passed each other like nothing but "Chad" needs to be seen knowing somebody. The new performative society

Although, to be honest, I’ll take this over the Nextel two-way radio days when everyone talked like long-haul truckers with all the “10-4” radio lingo blasting at full volume.

But I can't drink less either.
Maybe drinking more would cure the backache, at least until the next recycling day.

@derek111 Good ol’ Canadian Spring…15 false starts and to top it off snow in October. You know better than to take the snow tires off…
Neighbour did the same on a Friday two weeks ago and snowstorm on Monday.
