  • Unless the driver wasn’t insured properly, Taxis cover your bodily injuries in an accident. They should have no medical bills associated with it, and the article is kinda vague on that. If anything they should be taking this up with the insurance company. Unless the driver wasn’t insured properly, and Uber didn’t do their diligence then yeah it’s on Uber.

    This seems like these people are trying to sue for more than that though?

    Do i believe that Uber is being shady trying to pull some garbage about a separate TOS, yeah that’s shady. They should take it to the next level of appellate courts, which I believe would be the Supreme Court now.

    Though this isn’t apples to apples of the Disney thing.




  • Maybe in large encampments but from my daily experience of watching a never ending battle from the police and a homeless spot they typically don’t do that. They just tell them to leave, but they just come back eventually.

    Everyday I walk by a spot where homeless congregate. At the beginning of the week there a few rambling around. By EOW there are 30 just sleeping coming down from their high or smoking meth. The cops come, tell them to leave, then it starts all over again.

    They aren’t exactly bothering anybody other than the smell and that the city has to power wash the parking structure on a weekly basis because they all piss and shit in it.

    Look I care for these people, I’m not trying to sound all NIMBY here, but these are the type of people who don’t want help. They want to stay in their hole. The only assistance you can give these people other than abducting them and put them in a facility, is to tell them to leave and go to a shelter. Addiction is a mother fucker, and the only disease you can get yelled at for.


  • Whenever I see something like this I feel I must defend my friend who’s a cop.

    Before being a cop he was a lifeguard at a beach and my bassist.

    Baywatch may tell you differently, but being a lifeguard is a seasonal job, and not a career. The next level of being a lifeguard is becoming a cop, so he did, and he has only beaten one black man so far.


  • I feel kinda bad for her.

    Regardless of being right or wrong, I can’t imagine having all the intimate details of a toxic relationship just be strewn about for the whole world to see in a media circus.

    Not saying she’s innocent by any means, she’s crazy, but so is Depp.

    If anyone has been in a deeply toxic relationship, it’s crazy how much your personality changes. After watching some of that ridiculous trial I had to stop. It started to remind me of my personal experiences with bad relationships. I never experienced anything that extreme, but I feel if time went on, it would not have been too far off.

    6 years old all the way. Ok yeah sure, investments, Bitcoin, be rich. However, I’d love to relive parts of my past that I would want repaired that money couldn’t exactly fix.

    I’d be a better older brother to my younger brother. Hang out with him, take him to his football games, take him to movies, play video games with him. Instead of being the douchebag party guy that ignored him. We have a good relationship now, but I wish I could’ve given him better memories when he was a kid of his older brother and guided him more/better.

    I’d help my Mom with her addiction that took ahold of her because she couldn’t cope with what happened in her childhood. Maybe she’d still be around today, instead of me being so self absorbed in my own stupid shit.

    Avoid the bad relationships I was in, and have the knowledge to recognize when a relationship will go badly. Including the parts of myself that help make the relationship bad.

    Maybe the money would help with some of these things, but I really think my attention and presence would be more impactful.

    Yes, yes they are. Which is why you pay for their services.

    If a you pay a mechanic to fix your car, and it breaks down on the way home, you take that shit back and tell them to fix it.

    If you pick up your car and the mechanic complains of an overdraft fee from the bank, because everything hinged on you picking up your car at noon instead of 3pm, that isn’t your problem.
