I still don't think IAD area drivers are anywhere near as bad as NYC drivers. That said, I'm glad you brought up something different than FFDO crap. maybe we can find another subject to agree to disagree on!

 

Fantastic. You can look up a definition on the internet (although apparently you can't copy it without misspelling multiple words). Regardless, you continue to misuse the word, which leads one to suspect that you don't actually understand its meaning. Numerous times you have accused other members of "groupthink" simply because they held a differing opinion from you. That's quite a leap in logic. Or lack of logic I should say.

My personal favorite was when a member had quoted another member's post, and simply noted with a single sentence that he agreed with the sentiment. You pounced with your accusation of "groupthink." However, exactly one page earlier, you had used nearly the exact same word-for-word single sentence that he had, to express that you agreed with a different member's post. What's the takeaway here? If you agree with a sentiment, it's righteous, but if someone agrees with a sentiment that you don't, it's "groupthink"? Still think you're using it correctly?

Tell you what: why don't you look up "irony" next, and then get back to us.

For the love of all that is good and holy, can we take the merit/value of the FFDO program discussion and the related psychology of the FFDO program discussion to their own thread or to PM?

 

I can't disagree with you on that LNL76 dear. And I know we don't disagree on common courtesy and respect.

 

Yes! Let's not forget a proper upbringing where good manners are taught as well!

 

Speaking of bad drivers... How about the guy who sees nothing wrong with going the exact speed limit in the left lane, even when there is no one next to him in the lane to the right? Why should he move over to the right for someone who is obviously speeding, he wonders? When I tried to explain to him that not doing so is actually illegal in many states, he didn't believe me. Sigh...

 

Had to go to Seattle the other day. Traffic was bad as usual and we came to a crawl on I5 right above BFI. So i looked over to the left to watch a corporate jet take off. I turned to the right just in time to see the driver in the next lane also trying to look at the jet. He was picking his nose.

 

Sorry you had to witness that driver showing off his multitasking skills Vagabond.

 

I hear that.

No Matter the speed I am traveling, I try to stay in the right-hand lane as much as possible and let the jedi warriors battle it out in the left hand lane. My days of alpha male in the left hand lane are long gone.

 

Chicken! The middle lane is the best...you get to deal with jackassses from BOTH sides!
