Actually i did it so that i could still reply to everyone without spamming the boards every 30 seconds with a new reply.

Oh and good job having Napi +Rep that reply you made up there... I'm sure you think you're "being clever"

That was me.

You know you're doing something wrong when you force me to agree with Yung.

There are also laws regarding speeding, but thousands of people do it all the time, without even thinking twice.

Laws against speeding have the capacity to be arbitrary. It is not immediately apparent that driving at 30 MPH as opposed to 40 MPH is necessarily safer. In many cases (at least here in the states) local municipalities change the speed limit on roads that cross municipal lines to create what is called a "speed trap" whereby the speed limit drops without any change in driving conditions, creating a zone where people are "speeding" without driving recklessly (thereby being entirely arbitrary). The US interstate highway system even has a minimum speed limit in place, dictating the slowest one can safely drive on the interstates.

On the other hand, drunk driving is not only reckless, irresponsible and illegal, it is universally recognized and almost self-evidently defined as such.

I'm not sure why you're arguing this... do you drink and drive or something?

Though speeding is an offense, there are plenty of cases that I've heard of where someone who was going slower than the flow of traffic became a danger to surrounding drivers. I do agree with speed limits (mostly because people are stupid and in general need these rules) however, people should also use their common sense when driving.

I failed the test to get my driver's license because I was going too slow.

I've seen people following the 55mph speed limit on highways trying to merge into lanes where the general flow is much faster than that...generally ends with someone nearly crashing.

i am 16 and i am definitely female. although i love being regarded online as male because i don't particularly enjoy being a female.
i come from rainy vancouver and everyone thnks vancouver is wonderful but really this is a piece of shit place and its tiny and uninteresting. i used to hail from toronto, back east

sometimes i think i should play as pedobait rather than play neo. its really just a waste of time that i've become accustomed to.

Nice to meet you I like robots also

I was born and raised there. Which part?

...are you a true Floridian or a Northerner??

I'm 19 years old. I'm clearly a male.
I live in New York City at home, but study in a suburb of Philadelphia.

At the moment I'm in Vero and I was born in West Palm, I guess I mainly just dislike the area I'm in since there's virtually no nightlife. Which part do you come from?

I was born in DeLand, grew up in Deltona, then moved to Sumter County after that.

In response to the drunk driving thing, :[ it gives me an icky feeling. My ex girlfriend had a few beers one night and drove me home and we were in an accident. It was the other person's fault, but I feel like if she hadn't been drinking she would've been on top of things and it never would have happened in the first place. I'm terrified of cars now and have panic attacks nearly everytime I'm in the passenger seat, ESPECIALLY if my dad is driving.

Anywaaaaays, I haven't been asked a/s/l since my days on AIM xD This brings back memories!

Interesting things about me... lemme see... I'm big into photography and hope to save up for a really nice expensive SLR one day. I'm super shy due to my social anxiety disorder but once I become friends with someone, I open up. I go to therapy for my depression. I day dream 90% of the time. I'll eat a salad any time of the day because MMM OMG IT'S SALAD in fact I want one now. I've been a vegetarian for almost five years, so that is also a factor in that. I play tennis! I love tennis. It's the best. It's also the only sport I am good at xD I was on the tennis team for my high school. I really like making bracelets for people, it's probably one of my favorite things to do when I'm alone and have nothing else to do. I paint, I draw, I write. I have this obsession with putting things on my walls. There's hardly any empty space on my bedroom walls, it's all collaged with photos and magazine cut outs and paintings and drawings and posters. Video games are one of the greatest things to ever be created, in my opinion. I love to drive. I love to cook for my girlfriend. I'm very romantic, VERY romantic. It's kind of sickening sometimes. I love rainbows :3

I wonder how many people drive after smoking marijuana and think that its ok...

I wonder how many people drive after smoking marijuana and think that its ok...

I wouldn't worry. I mean, there are tons of people out there who suffer from seizures or are on narcotic medications out on the road as well as people who are stoned or drunk. I'm just grateful I've not already been killed in a collision. Yet.
