Yeah, it would be nice if American drivers kept to the right. Awhile back I was driving in the right lane at about 60 MPH (the speed limit was 55), and came up on a truck in the middle lane. It had a sign the said "Don't pass on right". The only problem is, it was barely doing 40! So my only options were to slow to a crawl, pass on the right, or try to cross 2 lanes and probably get creamed by the cars doing 70+. I said a bad word and passed on the right.

Presumable he is referring to this:

One of the ACA architects has stated that:

A) the bill was written in such a way so that the CBO did not interpret the fine's as Taxes.

b) said : “In terms of risk-rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in—you made explicit that healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed, okay. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to passLook, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not.”

this was in the news recently.

It's not even limited to the "developing world". My mom is totally offline; no computer, no internet, no cellphone. She does occasionally ask me to order something online that she heard about on the radio, but that's it. My GF isn't much better; she has an email, but doesn't use it much, and no facebook.

Or, his SO talks to the DOG.

To be fair, I have no problem with them burning down the McDonald's. Don't know about the pizza place, some of those are pretty crappy.

I dunno. I heard they cost an arm and a leg.

Which is a strong argument for mandatory police cameras. Without the dashcam, it would have been the black guy's word against the cop's.

I'm in my 50s with no problems. But eventually it will be in issue. Hopefully not at 62 like the above poster, but what about 72. Or 82. Heck, I might still be alive at 92. At that point, I'd probably be ready for a self-driving car.

I agree with the first 3. The problem with #4 is, some people are MORE likely to act like idiots on camera.

A similar thought. Can a boss remain good technically? Most of my bosses used to be tech people, presumably reasonably good at their jobs. But when they got promoted to the big chair, they were kept busy with boss-stuff, and their tech-skills fell behind.

We promise, cross our hearts, not to abuse your privacy. And we don't need to put it in writing, because you know we're totally trustworthy. Honest!

They probably taught him, but he didn't listen.

It's a common saying; when seconds count, the police are just minutes away.

I expect the people who have been mugged by Asian gang bangers, or know people who have, will cross the street to avoid them.

I don't know much about my father's side of the family, but on my mom's side, one aunt passed just before 90, and the other is still alive at 95. Mom's "only" 80, but still going strong and kicking butt. I figure somewhere in the 80's is a good guess. I'm 54 now.
