But here is a big difference.
Say beer was outlawed like weed was (again). Then some science dude proves beer reduces risk of cancer and the state you live in says there is a clinic you can pay $250 and they give you a card for beer. You don't think "medical beer" stores would pop up everywhere and people who had little risk of getting and no family history of cancer was suddenly beer card carrying citizens?

Mmmm... beer....But here is a big difference.

Sure it would happen and it would be the exact same bullshit pretense. There'd be the same zealots claiming it a cure-all, and drunks would tell you how they just need a few sips every now and again throughout the day to level them out.But here is a big difference.

If you are only drinking about 12 beers throughout the day, I don't see the issue.
when I moved to CO I met a guy who has a medical card. reason? he has stress.
the medical angle is largely a joke (with obvious valid cases) and many people exploit it to save on paying higher dope taxes.

Cool story bro: Last night after work I stopped at the grocery store to grab some food stuff. Found a Porsche Panamera Turbo S parked in a handicapped spot. Girls getting out of it were clearly either a lil wacko or on some drugz. They were hootin' and hollarin' throughout the store and almost dinged me in the nuts with their shopping cart at one point.
Oh and they were from Pennsylvania.

is this the get off my lawn thread?
good.
if you're in the left lane and not passing anyone, get the fuck over.
and if you flick your cigarette out your window, hell yeah i'm going to bright you and flip you off.

i'd say the left lane once had a good reason to exist. yeah, you use it for passing, not unlike a GMT. now, it is just another cruising lane. admittedly, i've done high speed cruising in it, but if i see you coming up on my six, my blinker goes and i zig right. however, in LA traffic, the left gets as clogged as anything else on the multi-lane parking lot.
i'll even thrown the HOV lane under the bus. it used to be for carpooling. then people started loading blow-up dolls into their passenger seats to skirt the law. now, in much of LA, you have to pay for the privilege of driving in that special lane, regardless of cabeza count in your Corolla. of course you have to get airlifted into it to get through the horde, and it is still only moving 5mph over being in the prole-position.
...how about personal hydration devices? it seems everyone is carrying a bottle of water everywhere they go. sure, humans get thirsty, but how hydrated do you need to be? i'm a slave to being near a porcelain receptacle, courtesy of my neurological impairment, however, voluntary enslavement strikes me as odd. it isn't hard to figure out that what goes in is probably coming back out. so are you really drinking the contents of your biodegradable, antimicrobial, fashion tote that matches the paint on your Prius, or do you just like to carry things that make it look like you are up to something? i'm not sure what Lewis and Clark dragged across the country to keep from turning into leathery prunes, but i'd bet it wasn't the amount of fluid you take on a trip to Target, in case you get lost in Housewares looking at brushed silver picture frames.
Ass-crack bike-rack.
My favorite is when they have their dog off a leash and tell me how friendly it is. That is great. My dog who is on his leash is a 10lb prick. Please leash yours so we don't have dog wars. No one likes dog wars.
Quiche? Feed my slice to the cat!
There was a gal in the Navy that ran the 1.5 mile PT test with a Camelbak to stay hydrated on the run.
Rewards club and membership cards. This has been stand-up fodder for years. You're selling something I need and use on a regular basis. I don't want to carry a card that entitles me to pay the market price for that product. A card which any cashier will produce from behind the counter and scan for a customer who forgets his/hers. I don't need text reminders to buy toilet paper because it's on sale. Chances are, I'm gonna buy it when I'm out of it. Stop slowing down lines by asking me to scan a card or punch in a phone number or email address.
Then they proceed to act overly surprised and offended after snapping back from la-la land.
My co-worker had an 80lb rottie mix that was chill with people but did not like other dogs. He said he had a few instances where he would be out walking his dog and have that same situation happen while yelling at them 'Mine's Not!' and proceed to watch as his dog would take down the other dog as he's pulling on the leash...
only total fucking tools take their uncontrollable dogs out in public. leash or no leash, any dog that attacks another for no reason other than proximity, needs a better owner...
How else you suggest walking your dog?
not really my problem. if that person and i are walking in opposite directions on the sidewalk and his dog(s) attack mine just because we are walking past one another, that dog shouldn't be in public...
of course that blame goes solely on the idiot owner. i could easily take the most aggressive dog and train that right out of them in no time...

Drinking a good deal of water helps prevent you from getting fat (and cramming other stuff down your throat to make up for it). Also, most of the shit that is liquid and not water is pretty bad for you. I think staying hydrated with water is very good and more people should do it (rather than drinking coffee, soda, not drinking water and cramming other stuff down their throat, etc.). I do too much active stuff to not do this anyway, ride twice a day much of the time, or do a ride and work out, etc.

I experience this fairly regularly. I especially enjoy it when I'm walking the dogs in places that are specifically signed telling people to leash their dogs, and I'm inevitably the only mother fucker on the trail whose dogs are leashed. 110% of the time these other owners will call and call and call and the unleashed dog is under zero control/command. My dogs are on a leash for a reason, and if your (obviously) uncontrollable animal gets into a fight with mine, you're going to be paying my vet bills.
That was my point. Is that if a dog is on a leash, he doesn't have to be friendly. My buddy knew his dog didn't like other dogs and did everything he could to minimize interactions, but still needed to exercise him. He would avoid people on the sidewalk or other areas when people were walking dogs, but you can't control when an off leash dog comes up to your dog.
The dog people that are annoying are the ones that think everyone is a dog person and that just because their dog is friendly it makes everything ok.
My biggest gripe is usually with little dog people since their dogs usually have little to no manners or training.

Yea. Obviously, I'm a dog person, which is how I wind up with these dogs that are abused/neglected/have issues/or are just plain retarded, but that also doesn't mean I want to deal with every dickhead I meet on the green way and their ill mannered, asshole dog.
One of my daughters little friends on the street is terrified of dogs. Like he has a genuine phobia of large, strange dogs. It doesn't mater how "friendly" your shitheel mutt is, this kid doesn't want your dog in his face. I suspect there is any other number of people who for whatever reason don't want to deal with some strangers dog.
There are quite a few people that don't like my 100lb GSD based on visual, even though he's a big doofus.
My pup be is friendly with other dogs but he is protective of me. Your off leash dog comes toward us and is chill, he returns the chill. That dog presents any negative energy and Cosmo will return sthat negativity with an explosively high rate of return. I am OK with that, but I am sure westcoasthucker could fix that.
nothing to fix. you already stated that unprovoked, your dog is completely chill..
My old douchebag neighbor bough the new Yamaha 1000cc SxS for $25k The only place you can take it is the sand. Keeps him away from me and mine.
I gave up on my Garden. Others have taken my place. In my absence it has become the green oasis of my neighborhood. I did some weeding today and the neighbor asked me what I was doing? I had to her explain that I owned her garden. Her dog loves me...
i've been bitten by a supposed dog trainers dog....approach with caution.
