Agreed, I haven't driven an 18 wheeler but I've driven the big fedex box trucks for a living and even those are harder to maneuver than a regular sedan. The hardest part is dealing with people who think you leaving all that extra space in front of you is just so anyone can slip in and drive there.

I've seen 3 separate people. Including that guy you mentioned. Reminds me of the Facebook copy pasta lul.

What the fuck. How'd you get that wound? Looks gnarly.

That's when I stopped watching actually. I don't shy away from gore but his last words to Maggie broke me. I can relate to that.

Lul gottem. But really, there's a non zero chance it happened and they don't even know, sorta crazy to think about.

Ah fair enough. Yes that's crazy, I heard of a dude who would take 20 minute naps on his commute home he didn't even have 'autopilot' it was just fucking lane assist and adaptive cruise control. That's a death waiting to happen.

That's my first reaction too but it could very well be that the dude can't afford to lose his job if he's late. I get it, I have long commutes too.

Lul have they never seen a turbine. I get that argument for solar but come on. I also can't fathom why normal people are so opossed to solar, it would literally save them so much money on their house.

Huh, as someone not knowledgeable about that sort of stuff I don't see any reason why you couldn't, beyond it'll block a little sun sometimes?

Probably if you take an average and include the multimillionaires getting bigger raises.

I've gotten a mix of bubble and paper cardboard but your right. Not just the padding but also the bubble bags they occasionally ship smaller stuff in.

For me it's more about repairability and cost. I can easily replace a mechanical handle, that would probably be tougher and cheaper than an electric moving one.
