What's Bothering You? (The thread about what is bothering you.)

[Flamingchook]

Got a bull**** ticket today.  Apparently leaving 4 car lengths between you and the car in front of you while going 35-40 miles an hour is "following too closely".  Cop pulled me over and said I was going 55 at one point when I topped out at 50 in a 45 zone and people were going faster than me ahead of me (not to mention that the cop had been going faster than me for a little while) and that I made an unsafe lane change, which, apparently when my blind spot monitoring doesn't beep and I can see a good two, maybe three car lengths of room behind me to change lanes.

He only ticketed me for "following too closely", but I have no clue how he could tell when he could only see from his rear-view and side-view mirror since I was behind him following a car that was next to him and a car length and a half behind him.  There have been times I have deserved to get a ticket, this was not one of them.  And it's a ****ty ticket to fight because it's all subjective as to what is "too close" and if I lose, I have to pay court fees on top of paying the cost of the ticket, which would probably end up costing double the cost of the ticket and without the option of traffic school.

Edit:  I forgot to add it was one of those school district cops.  Most of the ones I've met wouldn't cut it in a city police force.  He also told me that he had hoped I would pull up onto a curb on the freeway onramp he pulled me over on and motioned me to pull over to the side on because the onramp was a "dangerous place to stop on".  No **** officer.  That's why I was going to pull over on the side of the road of the barely moving rush hour freeway before you ordered me to the side of the on-ramp.

That's pretty ****ty... Only ticket I've ever gotten I deserved. I've been let off one that I absolutely deserved though, much worse than the one I got booked for. It seems to be luck of the draw wherever you are.

Be glad you don't live in IA.  I have gone from heat to AC back to heat in the same day.

In the fall and the spring there is enough of a temp fluctuation between day and night coupled with high-ish humidity, that I have had the heat and ac on in the same day but mostly just to knock the moisture out of the house.

i hope y'all never enjoyed the lovely combination of -30 and 100% humidity.

****ing bug flew into my eye
the little bitcg

[RED-404]

I live in Kansas and not the small part with Google fiber.
The weatherman says **** it its Kansas.
It looks like the African Savanna, but without all the cool ****.
The best internet I can get involves a 60ft tower and only gets 300kbps on a good day well its the best I can get without paying $48,0000.
I have to drive 35min just to get gas, not due to traffic, there is no traffic.

On the upside, one day I woke up made a fresh pot of coffee opened the back door and shot a deer.

Like seriously that's like basing your personality off your love of cheeseburgers. Cool, you like them, is that really the only thing that makes you stand out?

Ah, that sucks. Since I was born midway through the lives of my first 2 dogs, Ive already had to go through dogs getting to that where they're so immobile and constantly hurting you wonder if they're even enjoying themselves half the time.
