Since I'm taking tomorrow off, today is my kickoff……so that means pizza will be devoured sometime between 2pm and 6am. I cracked up laughing. Donuts aren't really my thing. I'm the wrong cop to ask. I am, however, a gummy bear aficionado. |

You should give 19th Street Pizzeria a try sometime. Better than average. They deliver but you might be just a little too far for them. I'm just down the street and will be having it today.

All kidding aside, we probably see more death in one evening than all those "Defund the Police woke snowflakes" will ever see in their lifetime, if at all.

Well in that case I'll be happy to take it off your hands once the new Gran Turismo drops....

To their point though -
The entire concept of cars and ownership is classist if you want to make that argument. They need to think bigger and more critically and get past the knee-jerk "I have no idea what else to say so I'm going to try to shut this down with a 'win' button statement". At a certain point we've decided collectively (or at least, our esteemed representatives have) that it's still worth the downside and an essential part of life. There are nearly 287 million cars in the USA, with a population of 331 million. 331-287 = 44 million. There are 78 million children in the USA (defined as 17 or under). Safe to say, it seems like classism for the costs of car ownership is a null argument, as pretty much everyone has at least one or more cars per household. And yeah yeah yeah some families may have one whereas another family have 8 cars and that's gonna skew things a bit but basically it holds up that classism is not a barrier of entry to car ownership aside from specific subsets like luxury brands / supercars / etc. And at the end of the day, the additional revenue generated by the people able and willing to jump through the extra hoops can subsidize those who have a need for a vehicle but not the means to pay for the extra training. I'd also wager that those extra hoops - even subsidized - might make certain demographics (low income, undocumented immigrants, etc) far more likely to drive more carefully, thus further improving safety overall and reducing likelihood of hit and run accidents and such. Win / Win for all involved.

Was an avid video game player since Pong in the 70s. Had so many different machines I can't remember them all. Frequented all night arcades while I kept a full daytime job. Was a real addict! My last machines were PS2 and XBOX. I think the internet took it's place for me. I know technology has advanced like crazy since then. I still look and am interested in the new stuff, but will probably never play again. Just not my thing anymore.
PS - Loved Gran Turismo and have a soft spot for Nintendo. |
