    Excuse me? What's wrong with that?
    I have lights that go around the bed and up on the roof rack. Spreading Christmas cheer and hurting nobody.

    These are the worst kinds of humans as far as I'm concerned. They should be banished to island colonies like lepers.

    Spent over two hours on it!

    Last night one of my neighbors (I think) switched on the lights while I was inside the house. D batteries ain’t cheap and if I catch anyone monkeying with my lights again I’ll be sending them the bill for new batteries!

    Certain residents of my culdesac seem to be engaged in a never-ending prank war!

    Semi trucks that pull out of their designated truck only lanes and into normal traffic lanes to pass a slower moving trucks especially climbing steep grades

    This happens all the time on the NB lanes of the Cajon pass in Socal . Nothing like driving up the pass at 65-75 mph in a car / truck and having a semi truck pull out of their restricted lane at 40mph and into your lane

    There's been some bad accidents on this mtn pass due to this

    Struggling to find a comment on the PA laws. I've got a note into the PA highway patrol to get their take. I'll advise once i hear back. But typically, red lights are only allowed in the rear. Blue are also typically reserved for emergency vehicles.

    I’ve heard that only the lights that strongly resemble emergency lights are illegal. My barber saw pictures of my truck all lit up and said that any cop who pulled me over between now and New Year’s probably has a serious case of the “Bah, Humbugs”...

    I’ve also been doing this for like three years and have driven past numerous cops without getting pulled over!

    Because most people truly believe they are good drivers but in fact are terrible, or at least only marginal. Look what happens when it rains, people miss exits, cut off left turns, drive too close....just the minor distraction of rain completely throws off a huge percent of 'good drivers'. Now we expect them to interpret a nuance...no way no how, simply not going to happen with a cell phone in their hand and a makeup brush in the mirror.

    Seeing people with dogs up in their laps. Nobody gives a crap about your dog as much as you do. Leave it at home where it belongs, that's where mine is.

    Everyone thinks they are an above-average driver. Everyone also thinks they are of above-average intelligence. 50% of everyone guessed wrong on at least one of those things. The word "you" is a subset of the word "everyone.":cookiemonster:

    Damn, look at this guy, dividing and conquering the threads.

    I'll have you know my dog fuckin loves home depot. She especially loves dropping a huge shit while I'm trying to have my paint mixed.

    IF they truly gave a crap about little "Fluffy" they would either have them in a safety harness in the back seat, a crate/carrier that is secured, or LEFT THIER PURSE POOCH AT HOME.

    After all how many folks really believe it is safe to let their children and/or grandchildren run around on the front seat or sit in the drivers lap with their head out the window?

    As far as taking them in the stores... I wish retailers would take a stance and require uniforms and papers for the dog to enter. I would not take my dog to any store other than a welcoming pet store. I love my dog but IMHO only service dogs need/should be in restaurants and stores
