Speed bumps are disproportionally less effective on vehicles with larger wheels, which is the trend for SUVs and trucks these days. So while a compact or sedan may slow down for the bump, your average pavement princess will respect the bumps as much as they’ll respect speed limits around schools. Which is to say, not at all.

The picture is questionable, and the story even more so. This reeks of engagement bait.

No shadow for the dog.

Huh, let me try: hunter2

They banned abortion clinics, which in turn leads to higher use of abortion pills. Clearly Abbott is part of some illegal abortion pill distribution ring, why else would he ban the competition?

But the data needs to be correlated! For example, how many people know it’s a repost but upvote it anyway because it’s a classic?

It’s legit.

According to another comment on this thread they are Ford trucks, so it might be hard to tell the difference between sabotage and just plain Ford-iness.

The large drums of lotion however didn’t raise any suspicion.

Well it is a bit less of a mouthful than “I licked the beaver’s vanilla flavored taint glands.”

Not saying that it is the case here, but It is entirely possible for people to sympathize with your condition but still not being able to understand it because they have no point of reference. An example is the phrase “crippling pain.” Most people will think only of the somatic meaning of crippling, and think that because someone can still walk normally they’re not experiencing it. However, there’s also the psychological component: pain so persistent or insidious that it stops you from thinking straight. It affects your performance when you have a white collar job, it affects your mood, and it carries a lot of stigma and judgment because it’s not a visible disability. Heck, younger me was guilty of such preconceptions too. It didn’t mean that I didn’t care, but I had no way to mentally frame it within my own experiences. I still don’t, exactly, but I’m able to extrapolate the scale from other experiences. In other words, I kind of understand now to a degree that I can avoid sounding condescending when trying to be sympathetic.

Again, I’m not saying that it applies in your case - I only have a couple of paragraphs from your post to go by. I’m only trying to convey that there is a difference between understanding and sympathy, and in many cases it takes education for someone who doesn’t experience ADHD to understand it. Sometimes it’s a futile exercise, yes, but in the cases where you can get through you’ll form a much stronger bond.

Terry, is that you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqsWF5Hjq3o

Yep. And if there’s no water then it’s “dropping off the kids at the skate park.”

Bold of you to assume that they’ll read past the cover.

That man is committing insurance fraud by blaming big rock for his smashed toes!

Boeing would do nothing except post a notice on a board in a damp cellar of one of their offices, and then blame airlines for not following their instructions.

Clean your windshield, inside and out,

Five minutes on a road that gets salted in the winter, and the windshield will be covered in a thin crust left behind by the brine spray from other vehicles. End result is that things will be just as bad when the sun hits you straight on.

Polarized glasses, as you mention, do help, as well as putting down the visor so you don’t stare directly into the sun.

How do I keep hearing these stories about families falling apart, and the sibling stick together???

Those are feel-good stories. You don’t hear the stories about siblings not sticking together because the people involved don’t want to talk about it as often.

After getting asked why he doesn’t just change his name: “No way! Why should I change? He’s the one who sucks.”

So… like Andor?
