Posts: 1358The problem with your argument is that if "we" (people who are decent, considerate, and obey the law) do anything slightly wrong, we'll be basically castrated! Also (I am writing this right after the other post I made regarding the narrow bicyclist who caused me issues), read my post about that, and you'll see why many of us might be "fragile".

Posts: 1358I understand there are laws governing bicyclists, and protecting them. But with some common sense and decency, we would not have so much hatred.

Each homeowner (including other adjoining communities in the area) was subsequently assessed with a "payment" for the improvement of that road about 9 months or so later, including the bike lanes (it was about $1450 for us, and not tax deductible! About a year later, I exited our community, approached that main road, and made a left (it is 2 lanes only, plus a bike lane on each side). The road ascends up a hill (not too steep). As I drove up the hill, there were 3 people riding their bikes on my right. 2 of them were correctly within the bike lane, but the third one was outside of it, on the road, and impeding me. Now, there was no traffic coming the other way, but legally one is not supposed to cross the line into the other lane. Well, I honked my horn for the bicyclist to move, but he ignored me. So, I did go around him (again, illegally), but as I went by, he gave me the finger! Unfortunately, I am not too strong, plus older than him. And I had nothing in the car I could use to fling at him. So, I had to just drive off. (A now deceased friend of mine would have stopped and did something, and he had WAY more guts than me!
So, legally that bicyclist was breaking the law (I think), but of course there were no police around. Plus I do not know of any way to report it, and subsequently have something done to that bicyclist. Still frustrates me to this day. Fortunately (and so far), such an incident has happened only once.

Posts: 46Gfe
I'm in the same boat, I've given up mostly on girls in WA. I now get enough GFE and PSE outside the US, and it's never been the same since. I've seen quite a few of the CT girls, and mostly they have been great. I've seen most multiple times too. CarmenNicks, CaseyTyler, CelineBelle (last session was bad I won't see again), CamilaLove, and others have been great. Usually MSOG, DFK, BBBJ, CFS. You can't go wrong but keep in mind they're always busy so you'll be hitting it right after another monger and as soon as you leave there will be another dick waiting in the parking lot. LOL.

Posts: 1358I hope you are correct. But with all the harsh economic sanctions nations are implementing against Russia, and with the Ukraine forces putting up heroic resistance, Putin might get pissed off.

Posts: 865Depends on the country
In some countries, if a motorist hits a cyclist they automatically lose their driving privileges unless they can prove that the cyclist was extremely reckless.

Posts: 170Indeed!
I like how you think WW99. I too, absolutely effing hate cyclists for hogging lanes and such because they know we can't do anything. In any other countries, they would get ran over! Wouldn't even dare. Fuck them! This thread is starting to come back. Keep it up!

Posts: 964RE: Ukraine / Putin
My honest opinion is that he won't use nuclear weapons. I do think that once he has a Putin-friendly regime in Ukraine, which could be any day now, he will attempt to foment dissent in the region and find candidates in each country who support him. I'm not sure of any direct military actions after Ukraine, but definitely destabilization will be part of his game in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. Putin is a disinformation master and so is his machine of people under him.
I'm hoping that Russian citizens begin to take action against Putin from within. Time will tell on that.

Posts: 1358I am not spending money at particular stores, because I can find the exact same item at another store for less. Prime example: I recently have got hooked on these tasty chips:

That's a 5 ounce bag (and a ridiculous price! But my comparison is with a 7 ounce bag. At Walmart, it is $3. 48, but at Winco, it is $2. 98. So, of course I am not stupid, and purchase it at Winco. Plus, the Winco store is much closer to me than Walmart.
I can give many, many such examples, some small in prize, some large (like cars and TV sets). I still do some shopping at Walmart, but saving money here and there definitely adds up. It's basic economics, which many, many folks don't understand (or refuse not to understand).

Posts: 67Right on, yeah she was a little quiet but seemed like it was more cautious and she wanted me to open her up.

I wanted to mention her because when I saw the ad I came over here immediately for the real scoop and found nothing. Got to help out the next guy.
Since my post I've only recently become aware of this group of hot touring Cali girls that she is a part of. I'm going to be on the lookout from now on.
Everyone's got their kinks, but for me she's hitting high marks on everything at a time when I was basically giving up on GFE with hotties in WA. Hopefully the others in her group do too!

Posts: 964But yet the perception of expensive groceries persists. All of us here can band together and refuse to shop where groceries are "expensive", but yet the store persists. Meanwhile, others continue to shop there because.
1) they don't perceive said store's prices as being expensive.
2) it's convenient.
At the end of the day all you're doing is not spending your money at that particular store. You aren't actually reducing prices.
LOL - I realize we keep going in circles, i'm finding this debate sort of fun, actually. I don't know why.

Posts: 1358Ukraine Discussions
I've seen many excellent responses to my original post about the war in the Ukraine, and they are quite good and educational. But I still fear the possible use of nuclear weapons by Putin. I don't know if he is level headed enough to realize what that would mean if he decides to use them, but it sure is scary. As it is, there have been enough economic sanctions countries have already imposed (and probably more to come) which could piss him off.

I've also encountered such ignorance when there are bike lanes available, but the bicyclist still chooses to use the road, even if the bike lane is completely empty. And don't get me started on such folks hogging walking paths.

Posts: 1358Well, well stated! And your analogy about overpriced groceries, cars, etc. Is spot on. I am definitely the same way.
