Left my window cracked at work yesterday to air my truck out after a weekend of wet/muddy riding. A bird managed to bullseye a turd into the slightly cracked window......

I just know I was going around 140mph when a 911 came behind me with lights flashing. I was told to move over quickly (I did) and was then passed as if standing still.
I will say what I found awesome was the same mentality worked on the escalator. If you care to stand, stand to the right to allow folks to walk past your lazy ass on the left.
Yeah, that is why I was pissed. I had to read the wikipedia entry which only slightly cleared things up for me. All of the jumping between past and present, conscious and subconscious, dead or alive, and who the hell's brain was telling the story at any given time made it hard to follow.
New Mexican Texas?
It's a general lack of awareness - when you don't EVER think about what other people might be doing. And it becomes habit.I just know I was going around 140mph when a 911 came behind me with lights flashing. I was told to move over quickly (I did) and was then passed as if standing still.

New Texarado?
yea, it can be difficult at times to follow for sure. i find myself rewatching episodes just to know what's going on.
Its raining here now. All that slush from no plowing on the roads sure is messy.I brought my laptop home yesterday because I had to bring the boy to the orthodontist at 11 today. I figured it would be easier to work from home in the morning. turns out it was the right call. It's been nuking all day (easily 12" since yesterday) and it's warming up. The roads are ridiculously slippery. it's supposed to warm up and turn to rain tonight too.all this beautiful fresh fluffy snow is going to go to shit.
It'll make tonights fat bike group riding interesting.
Looks like my crew is going to (xc) ski tomorrow. I pitched it as a way to lay a base to bike on later... if it stays warm(ish), this plan might just work.
How about just "westerners". I noticed this too in Oregon, California, and Arizona (to a lesser extent there though)
Japan also has good stair and escalator lane discipline, if you will. No idea about how driving is there--never driven when I've been there because why bother when the trains are so good?I just know I was going around 140mph when a 911 came behind me with lights flashing.

Probably should be New Calitexarado. Almost sounds Mayan, no?

True. Also legit ped laws, too in both areas. If you aren't in a crosswalk, you can hear the car accelerate. But if you step off the curb in a crosswalk, everybody stops.
Why is shit like that surprising? The overall lack of common sense and self awareness in the country is sad. Sad!
and yet cyclists in Japan ride on the sidewalk. Often while texting. and holding an umbrella. and smoking. at the same time! and no one dies, and it's not pandemonium...
I friggin' miss that place.
angryboooooooooooooooooooooooooooooork is going to look at the camera server........only to find that windohs crashed on it. Fuck.
I with you on that....just show some more robot sex, shoot some people and let's get on with the program, OK?
My work, summed up as a meme, as of late:

Oof.... snowing all day.. love it
Tried after some elk this morning, just couldnt quite close it. Did however snow shoe 4.5 miles in the process. Not easy snow shoe, like even with snow shoes the snow was up just over my knees. Great times being out.
Mother nature dropped a good 12 plus inches in bridger pass, there was a solid 6 inches when i went through, saw the plow coming the other direction, by the time i came back there was another 8 inches on the road...
Super fun when there is no guard rail and you have no idea where the edge is

That's because slowshoes blow goats.
Much success growing hydroponic Tomatoes. I am told it is hard to get them right. I am going to try green onions and peppers next. Not very tasty....

Aaaaaand work has morphed from a regular ol' shitshow to a complete explosive-diarrhea show. 
Oh - and director and executives talking about shit they obviously have NO clue about, technically.

Why would you slow-shoe when you could use skins and skis?
Gale force winds, blowing snow, glad I'm back inside and not attempting to go anywhere.
I've just found a moment to read this morning's news. 
When are we riding again? You should be out-climbing me now, skinny man!
Nah, this isn't about fear of enforcement, this is one of the basic rules everyone is taught in Yurp in driver education. Plus it is a self-preservation instinct. No-one ever expects you to pass on the right, you're digging yourself a grave if you do that, even if there is no police to be seen for miles.
All my european friends are genuinely terrified the first time I take them to the freeway and pass on the right. Also,they tend to scream and take cover when I take the Massachusetts left.
sounds like a gross yankee sex movethe Massachusetts left.
in perhaps related news, working on toilet repairs...
You ever try to pack out a 500 pound animal on skis?
They have their purpose.
That, and my knee isnt up to par yet for long ski treks yet
