Sounds like a lawsuit is in order…
Oh, this hits a little close to home.
That could be real. And no drugs involved. You’re not thinking straight.
ETA: “You’re” in the general sense, not YOU personally.
I watched that too and had many questions but really came away with a bad opinion of the person taking the video.
Why was he so snide and arrogant? Why was he so aggressive? (Was it because it was a woman? ) Why didn’t he seem to have any empathy? Why did he feel it necessary to inject himself into the situation the way he did? What was in it for him? The whole thing felt really gross to me. I saw a woman that seemed to be in crisis, and a man acting out some sort of fantasy of making a citizen’s arrest while recording as if he was in an episode of Cops for Internet points.
Yes, clearly what the driver was doing was extremely dangerous and things could have ended up far worse than they did. People could have been killed. I’m sure she will have her license suspended or revoked as a result, and may end up uninsurable. Ultimately nobody was hurt and only some property was damaged.
They were surprisingly convincing as Lestat’s backup band in Queen of the Damned
There’s a few Darwin Awards in there.
A few unlucky good eggs, also.
That’s quite hypnotic.
Surely this makes flights even more pleasant
So a couple hours after I posted that tomato tweet, I saw a news story about her being attacked during a set because she voted for Biden.

I can tell by the fact that you’re still talking when no one wants you to, that you voted for Trump
So like Facebook, gifs are cringe now, and just a boomer thing?
GIFs—particularly “reaction GIFs,” such as Michael Jackson chomping on popcorn and Mariah Carey muttering “I don’t know her”—were a lingua franca of the internet and significant enough culturally that in 2014, the Museum of the Moving Image in New York even put on an exhibit of reaction GIFs (titled “Moving Image as Gesture”). “This is the file format of the internet generation,” Tumblr’s then-head of creative strategy, David Hayes, told Mashable in 2016, while more than 23 million GIF-based posts were being uploaded to the site he worked for each day. As the GIF’s star rose, GIF-searching features were added to Facebook, Twitter, and iMessage, making it even easier to find a GIF to express whatever emotion you wanted to convey without words.
And that was the turning point. These search features surfaced the same GIFs over and over, and the popular reaction GIFs got worn into the ground. They started to look dated, corny, and cheap. “GIFs Are for Boomers Now, Sorry,” Vice’s Amelia Tait argued in January. As older adults became familiar with GIFs through the new, accessible libraries attached to essentially every app, GIFs became “embarrassing.” (Tait specifically cites the GIF of Leonardo DiCaprio raising a toast in 2013’s The Great Gatsby, and I agree—it is viscerally humiliating to be reminded of that movie.) The future is dark for GIFs, Tait suggested: “Will they soon disappear forever, like Homer Simpson backing up into a hedge?”
Circa 2014, I’d guess.
I’d say hot takes from bougie magazines are cringe…

We need Uhura with a fro and leather jacket in the style of the Panthers…
