When I realize that I've read someone else's post incorrectly and you were in fact, not bitching about a stack of CARDS in the road.

Seems that whenever I mention a stack of anything, it confuses people. Sorry bro. Been playing Magic since I was a kid. To me, any kind of queue is called a stack. It just makes sense to me. A stack of blocks, a stack of flapjacks, a stack of papers, a stack of cars are all examples, but the last one is horizontal instead of vertical.

My one primary hope for driverless cars isn't safety related at all, but purely the reduction of delays & traffic jams due to stupid and inattentive drivers.

Light stays green for 30 seconds, but the first car in line takes 10 seconds to notice it changed, and every car behind that one takes an additional 3-4 seconds to react. Only a handful of cars make it through. If that shit were automated by computer sensors the first car could be moving forward in 1-2 seconds, and every other car the same once the car in front of them starts moving. Probably get twice as many cars through every green light, vastly reducing backups.

Same with any roads or highways that merge(either naturally or due to construction). People don't know how to handle that shit at all.

Or the people that decide at the last minute that they need to be turning at the intersection, but are in the wrong lane, but instead of moving forward and doubling-back at the next turn while in the flow of traffic, they completely stop their lane unexpectedly and wait for an opening to turn/merge over, having not planned ahead whatsoever.

It's incredible how many people think they are good drivers just because they never get a ticket or accident, when in reality they make choices on the road everyday that are at best, un-optimal, and at worst completely negligent.

I've been day dreaming about this for years, since middle school. In the dream a HUD appears across the top of the car's windshield and the shitty driver is 'assisted' as the controls are taken over by Big Brother.

Is it only embarrassing if the person you're embarrassing knows you're doing it?

Well it is literally impossible to be embarrassed about something nobody knows about, at least by my Tanoomba-definition of embarrassed.

But you could be ashamed of it either way, I guess.

Didn't you give your wife the clap you got from a street walker and also fucked one in your bed while she was at the hospital with your son who had a broken leg or something?

That sensation when you find a bee, or flea, or tick, or whatever creepy and then every brush of hair on you seems to be that thing.

Just saw a FanDuel commercial that was 5 minutes long. Also late at night they have infomercials now. Really sick of all this fantasy sports shit.

I've had that for months at a time. My brain gets set there easily and it's hard to dislodge. At this point it's hard to tell if I'm ever not there. I basically compensate all the time by ignoring things that touch me or little bits of air that move my hair around. I'm sure living in Florida isn't helpful.

Last time I went to my dads lakehouse, I found two ticks on me(hadn't latched on, just crawling) after a hike through the woods

That entire night I could barely sleep because every damn time I felt any slight tickle or sensation I thought it was ticks crawling on me, I'd have to turn on the damn bedroom light and check.

My wife almost murdered me that night

That's why you strip naked and do tick checks if you have female companions with you.

That was always the joke when I went to forestry school. Guess it worked, been with the same woman for almost 20 years now. Never did find any ticks but lots of other interesting "stuff" lol.

My ex dug a seed tick out of my ass crack once by candlelight. Still thankful and impressed she managed to find it.

I love self driving cars but also fear them greatly, I'm hoping it's something simple like freeway driving is automated but city traffic requires control. I don't trust an algorithm when I'm jaywalking.

And you'll be the lucky one who finds the software bug where the car doesn't recognize people who are moving backwards.
