Because in addition to everything else said, they are also exceeding the speed limit within a parking area by a fair margin.

Luckily for me, one branch has been in the midcoast since the mid 1700s, another around machias since about the same.

hahd.

.....go on.....

I'm actually pretty relieved that the news cycle is so slow that all they have to report on is it's a bit chillier than normal.

...the wind chill is -40 and you think "probably should put on a sweater...maybe."

A1 Diner has the most disgusting kitchen I've ever had the misfortune to work in. Hood vents covered in grease and dust so think I could swear I saw fungus growing on it. Fryer oil that hadn't been replaced for a month. A thick coating of dust over everything. Nothing in the prep cooler labeled or dated. A pile of dirty rags in the corner that had been there for a week. No gloves, no hats, no nothing out back.

I refuse to ever step foot in there and I still don't know how that guy still is open with the multitude of health code violations there.

Color doesn't actually matter much. Be smart and look at the label.

> The upper class was a bit too risk averse and didn't feel an obligation to help is how I see it.

change that 'was' to 'is'. Things haven't changed in 100 years.

If you wanna send that up to Maine, that'd be awesome.

I'm wondering just how small you guys' dicks are that you have to brag about how well you'd kill a fucking swan to make up for it.

Yea this is more believable over the prior one. Republicans in the states would be more likely to lock you out of the car to distract the bear from themselves than let you in to save both of you.

That'd be because those are often 'homemade' using the same recipes you'd find in your gramma's cookbook, just at a larger scale.

Very first sentence on their promotional material even says as much.

If you fucking tell me to buy snow tires I swear it I'm gonna shove em up your ass. Unless you're willing to offer your garage for storage for the ten months I don't need them, I'll just stick to driving smart during snow.

And often times it ends up being a 2-pack by the time they get home.....

all seasons are fine for snow for the most part. I've never had anything but and I've only gone off the road in snow once or twice, both times because I was young, going too fast and learnt my lesson after the second time.

No, it's the people who tell others to get snow tires or get off the road. They think because they've 4 wheel drive and/or snow tires that means they'll never go off the road and can go thirty over the limit.

I say "people don't know how to drive in the snow" frequently. I also drive slowly in icy and snowy conditions. Usually slow enough that people back up behind me and are quite obviously very angry because they can't go 20 over like they want.

Really should demo the entire plazas and let nature reclaim it. Or turn them into city parks. Or SOMETHING that isn't acres of empty asphalt.

It's Maine. A three hour drive is a Sunday afternoon trip for us.

For a major AAA game developer and publisher to misread the room so goddamn hard.....

It was Diablo Infinity reveal levels of dumbassery....

Making a subjective statement and pretending it's fact.

You've fallen to the propaganda that it's our faults and it's our responsibility to fix it. If you are being environmentally conscience, you're doing everything you can already. But until regulations are put on oil companies, car companies, food companies, fashion companies, etc to reduce their own carbon footprints by a significant amount, this will keep happening.

We get told not to buy plastic wrapped food from the supermarket. Okay....tell the food producers to stop wrapping them in plastic in the first place.

Buy a hybrid or electric vehicle. Okay, make them affordable and not cost so fucking much. Also work on reducing the carbon footprint to, you know, manufacture the fucking things.

They blame us for the issues. They created the issues. It's their fault, not ours. And until they take responsibility for it, it won't get better regardless what we do.

As for the 'vote' crowd. Look at the last ten years of elections we've had and tell me which one would have been the correct one to vote for to curtail and reverse the issues we're having. In Maine? none. None of them was the correct answer. Nationally? Bernie probably would have been the best choice, but then he'd also have to fight the combined might of congress and SCOTUS and good luck on that.

We're fucked. Pure and simple. The pleebs like us are stalks of grain in the path of the hurricane. Some of us might survive it, if we somehow learn to evolve and adapt to the new climate.

You wanted one, you were given one. Stop moving the goal posts or nothing will ever change.

Education wise we're not amazing but we're far from the bottom of the barrel.
