Yea, I forgot signature pictures even existed. I haven't used the desktop version since mobile rolled out. Who tf uses tablets? I bought a Samsung Note and it has basically replaced my computer except for doing school work (which I'm done with) and work work, which requires two monitors. 

Tim.... I think you're the one not with the times 😂

According to the Solomon Curve, drivers traveling 5 mph (8 km/h) above the average speed of traffic are statistically the least likely to be involved in a crash while crash risk increases dramatically when traveling below the average speed.

All light switches should be dimmers. 

Couldn't agree more with this. Our house has dimmers on every light fixture except for the garage and outside. I can't stand going to my brother in law's home for holidays because it's lit up like a Home Depot store. Not a candle in sight.

I just want to find a balance between "not peeing on the floor" and "holy shit my eyes are melting". Sometimes a motherfucker has to piss at 3:00 am. 

A practical consideration, Pauly, but the dimmed lighting also is an advantage in that it helps you not to see the pee stains from all those times you missed the loo--and I'm sure there are many; I speak from experience here.

Here is a photo of our downstairs den on a typical winter evening. Warm, dim lighting. Snow falling outside, which often results in school cancellations and a corresponding increase in alcohol consumption. Fucking awesome.

News traffic map just shows an accident. Must have been a fatality involved to close it down. 

one station says a pedestrian was hit on the ramp before the backup. waze shows 5 different accidents.

This is why riding a bicycle is much more dangerous than riding a motorcycle (on roads).

I’m at a high school right now for a volleyball tournament today. There’s a guy walking around trying to find who owns a black van because they parked it right in the middle of a motorcycle course they offer here. I guess the genius didn’t notice all the cones around the area where they have the course.
