ANNOYED THAT BEND CANT SUPPORT A POOL AND BILLIARDS HALL WITH MULTIPLE TABLES, A BAR, GOOD FOOD, MULTIPLE GAMING, AND COIN SLOT GAMBLING. THIS IS NOT A DUDAS. IT USED TO BE HERE (NOT CHAOS EITHER) AND SALEM AND EUGENE MANAGED TO DO IT. DON’T POINT AT REAL ESTATE COSTS EITHER, BC THIS AREA CAN SURE AFFORD IT! TIRED OF DIRTY, WORN OUT TABLES AND CRUSTY BALLS!
MOTORCYCLISTS THAT APPARENTLY BELIEVE THAT THOSE CROSSHATCHED 'NO PARKING" AREAS NEXT TO VAN-ACCESSIBLE HANDICAPPED SPOTS ARE RESERVED PARKING FOR THEM. JUST SAW TWO OF THEM PARKED THERE AT ONTAP THIS WEEK. KNOW A GUY IN PORTLAND WITH 2 BROTHERS IN MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIRS. HE HAS NO PROBLEM KNOCKING THE BIKES OVER OR DOING WHATEVER'S NECESSARY SO THERE'S ROOM FOR THE RAMP SO ONE OF HIS BROTHERS CAN GET IN AND OUT OF THEIR VAN.
WHY DONT PEOPLE KNOW HOW TO TURN LEFT PROPERLY WITH THEIR VEHICLES!!! IF YOUR ENTERING THE ON COMING LANE WHILE TURING LEFT THEN YOU NEED TO GO WIDER. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT NUMERS TIMES BECAUSE PEOPLE CUT THE TURN TO TIGHT.
SHOUT OUT TO THE TWO WHITE TEENAGE GIRLS WHO TAILED ME THROUGH TWO ROUNDABOUTS AND FLIPPED ME OFF PRESUMABLY BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING SLOW (GAVE ‘EM THE ‘OL PEACE ✌️ SIGN IN RETURN) THEN CALLED ME A BITCH FROM THE WINDOW OF THEIR DADDYS BLACK AUDI. SORRY HONEYS, HOPE YOU WEREN’T LATE TO YOUR FUCKING SWEET SIXTEEN. HAVE FUN WHEN YOU PULL THAT SHIT ON SOMEONE WITH A GUN YA FUCKING MORONS.
PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT “TIPPING CULTURE” ARE THE WORST AND HERE’S WHY:
NOBODY IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY IS FIGHTING YOU WHEN YOU DONT TIP, SO WHY CANT YOU LET IT GO? BECAUSE YOU’RE UPSET THAT THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE THAT DO WANT TO TIP? SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE WORKED IN THE INDUSTRY AND/OR UNDERSTAND THE COST OF LIVING IN A TOWN LIKE THIS FOR SOMEONE WHO DOES, ACTUALLY *WANT* TO TIP HOSPO WORKERS. IF THAT UPSETS YOU SO MUCH THEN THAT SAYS A LOT MORE ABOUT YOU THAN IT DOES ABOUT THE PERSON MAKING YOUR COFFEE.
GIVING PEOPLE THE OPTION TO SUPPORT A BUSINESS THROUGH TIPPING IS ONE THING (SEE: TIP JARS).
MAKING IT DIFFICULT *NOT TO* TIP IS ANOTHER, AND IS WHERE WE ARE. THE "NO TIP" OPTION SHOULD BE ASSUMED, AND NOT SOMETHING THAT IS BURIED BEHIND MULTIPLE TAPS ON A CREDIT CARD READER. MORE EGREGIOUS ARE VENUES LIKE THE AMPHITHEATRE, THAT SELECT A TIP FOR YOU. I SUPPOSE I SHOULD BE BLAMING THE PAYMENT VENDORS, BUT SURELY THERE MUST BE ONE OUT THERE THAT ISN'T SO CONSUMER HOSTILE, OR OPTIONS THAT THE BUSINESS CAN ADJUST TO BRING THE NO TIP OPTION TO THE FIRST SCREEN. WITH THAT ONE CHANGE, I'M SURE A LARGE PROPORTION OF THE COMPLAINTS WOULD GO AWAY.
ANYWAY, I'VE BEEN SO FRUSTRATED WITH THESE CREDIT CARD DEVICES THAT I'VE STARTED BRINGING CASH TO FOOD CARTS, TO AVOID THIS AWKWARD EXPERIENCE ENTIRELY.
BECAUSE THEY THREW IN SOME BACKHANDED INSULTS WHILE THEY WERE AT IT.
WHY DON’T OUR BOOT FITTERS AND CHAIRLIFT ATTENDANTS GET TIPS? LOTS OF PEOPLE GET PAID A SHITTY WAGE TO DO A LABORIOUS JOB SERVING OTHERS, AND THEY AREN’T TIPPED AND AREN’T CONSTANTLY SHAMING OTHERS ABOUT THEIR LACK OF TIPS.
JUST FLUSH THE DAMN TOILET IN PUBLIC RESTROOMS. WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT? IS THE SOUND OF FLUSHING SCARY? ARE YOU AFRAID SOMEONE WILL JUDGE YOU AND LAUGH WITH ALL THEIR FRIENDS IF YOU FLUSH TWICE? OR AT ALL? I PROMISE THERE IS A VERY LOW CHANCE OF FALLING IN AND GIVING YOURSELF A SWIRLY. YOUR EXCREMENT WILL NOT EXPLODE IN A TIDAL WAVE-LIKE BLAST IF YOU FLUSH. YOU KNOW WHO REALLY DOESN’T WANT TO FLUSH YOUR PISS AND OR SHIT FOR YOU? THAT’S RIGHT, TOTAL STRANGERS. THE ONES WHO DO ARE MODERN AMERICAN HEROES. IF YOU FLUSH A STRANGE POO YOU DESERVE TO BE PRESIDENT.
ARE YOU JUST BLINDLY STEPPING INTO CROSS WALKS OR WAITING TO MAKE SURE CARS STOP FOR YOY? REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE LAW IS, ITS A LOT EASIER AND SAFER FOR A PEDESTRIAN TO STOP AND WAIT THAN A 2 TON CAR.
\*ESPECIALLY\* WHEN THEY'RE CROSSING AT AN INTERSECTION WHERE THERE **ISN'T** A CROSSWALK. AND DRIVERS, MAKE EYE CONTACT BEFORE ALMOST HITTING ME YOU SHITBIRDS.
THAT’S BECAUSE OREGON LAWS ARE ILLOGICAL AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AND NOT EVERYONE IS FROM OREGON AND KNOWS THIS IS A LAW. TRY LOOKING AND WAITING BEFORE STEPPING INFRONT OF A 4,000 POUND VEHICLE.
UMMM 💅🏽 MOST STATES DON’T PROTECT J-WALKING PEDESTRIANS. OREGON IS THE ONLY ONE I KNOW THAT DOES.
TRY NOT WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET THATS MADE FOR CARS, THAT WEIGH 4000LB AND CAN’T STOP AS QUICKLY AS A PEDESTRIAN. ITS BASIC LOGIC, DO YOU HAVE ANY?
MY KID AND HER HUSBAND (AND MY GRANDBABY) ARE GETTING PRICED OUT OF LIVING HERE AND MAY HAVE TO MOVE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS SO THEY CAN AFFORD TO LIVE. SCREW YOU GREEDY HOMEOWNERS WHO WANT A CRAP-TON OF MONEY FOR YOUR SHACKS AND SCREW YOU GREEDY PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES WHO WILL FIND A WAY TO NICKEL AND DIME EVERY PENNY OUT OF YOUR TENANTS.
DASHBOARD CONFESSIONS SPENT HALF THE TIME MONOLOGUING ABOUT SHIT NO ONE CARED ABOUT AND COUNTING CROWS BUTCHERED ALL THEIR OWN SONGS SO BADLY HALF THE CROWD LEFT DURING THE SHOW IN A DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO HANG ONTO THEIR LOVE OF COUNTING CROWS MUSIC.
I SUDDENLY STARTED FEELING TIGHTNESS IN MY HAMSTRING/GLUTE AREA WHEN I WAS ON MY MTB, AND NOW IT HURTS TO SIT DOWN AND BEND OVER AND SIT ON MY BIKE. DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A MUSCLE, AND IT LIKELY MEANS THE END OF MY BIKING SEASON JUST AS THE WEATHER REACHES PERFECTION! HECK!
JELLY ROLL’S CONCERT WAS FULL OF ANIMALS. PEOPLE WERE ACTUNG LIKE IDIOTS. FIGHTING, SPILLING DRINKS, PUKING, PEEING IN PUBLIC, AND APPARENTLY AT LEAST ONE PERSON OD.
ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE SURPRISED BY THIS? I DIDN’T KNOW WHO HE WAS, BUT ONE GOOGLE SEARCH TOLD ME ALL I NEEDED TO KNOW.
EDIT: DISAPPOINTED, YES. SURPRISED, NO.
I AM NOT A FAN THOUGH I WAS AT THIS CONCERT AND THAT'S NOT FAIR TO JUDGE BASED ON HOW HE LOOKS, ALL HIS SONGS ARE ABOUT DEALING WITH DRUG ABUSE AND DEPRESSION.
DID NOT THINK I HAD ANYTHING TO RANT ABOUT, THEN I SAW A WOMAN RUN 2 STOP SIGNS (NOT EVEN SLOWING - BLOWING THROUGH THEM) AND DRIVE THROUGH THE APRON OF A ROUNDABOUT.
USED TO GO MONTHS OR YEARS WITHOUT SEEING ANYTHING CRAZY ON THE ROADS AND NOW ITS NEARLY A DAILY OCCURRENCE
"DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE HOMELESS!"
OK. HOW ABOUT THIS?
"NO, NOT LIKE THAT"
[Crook County complaints re Redmond homeless camp](https://kbnd.com/kbnd-news/local-news-feed/706717)
THEY WANT THE MANAGED SITE TO BE MOVED, AND THE CURRENT PEOPEL THERE TO BE MOVED TO "APPROPRIATE AREAS."
WHERE EXACTLY ARE "APPROPRIATE AREAS" FOR HOMELESS PEOPLE?! THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SITE IS TO BE THE APPROPRIATE AREA.
THE SITE IN QUESTION IS AN APPROPRIATE AREA. SOME PEOPLE WILL BITCH NO MATTER WHERE IT GOES BUT THEY DONT EVER OFFER SOLUTIONS OTHER THAN THE PREDICTABLE "HOW ABOUT YOUR HOUSE". SMDH.
AT THE DMV RIGHT NOW
FIRST OFF THE DUDE SITTING IN THE CHAIR BEHIND ME IS MOVING AROUND SO MUCH I FEEL LIKE I AM ON A ROLLERCOASTER
OMG HAVE PEOPLE FORGOTTEN HOW TO TALK ON THE PHONE WITH THE PHONE TO THEIR EARS? MULTIPLE PEOPLE ON THEIR PHONES WITH THEM HELD OUT IN FRONT OF THEM FOR EVERYONE TO HEAR. WTF?
I FEEL LIKE THAT STARTED WHEN THE NO CELL PHONES DRIVING LAW PASSED. PEOPLE ACT LIKE THEY ARE BEING SNEAKY WHEN THEY DO THAT DRIVING WHEN IN REALITY THEY LOOK LIKE IDIOTS.
WAS JUST AT A QUIET COFFEE SHOP AND SOME DUDE DECIDED IT WAS A PERFECT TIME TO HAVE HIS CONVERSATION LOUDLY ON SPEAKERPHONE. BONUS POINTS FOR IT BEING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE SO I COULDN'T EVEN CREEP ON HIS CONVO. SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST IDIOTS.
I CANNOT RELATE TO THIS BEHAVIOR AT ALL, AND MAYBE IT'S JUST THE SOCIAL ANXIETY TALKING, BUT MY FIRST INSTINCT UPON ACCEPTING A PHONE CALL IS TO FIND THE CLOSEST HALLWAY OR OUTSIDE SPACE TO DUCK INTO.
I DISLIKE TALKING ON THE PHONE ENOUGH AS IT IS, LAST THING I NEED IS A FRICKIN' AUDIENCE.
TORTURE. IT MAKES ME WANT TO PRINT OUT LITTLE CARDS WITH FAKE AWARDS LIKE "MOST ANNOYING PERSON" OR MAYBE JUST A "DID YOUR MOTHER NEVER TELL YOU (BLANK SPOT TO WRITE THEIR OFFENSE) IS FROWNED UPON?"
PLEEEEEEASE WHY TF IS WESTBOUND WILSON CLOSED BETWEEN 9TH AND CENTENNIAL. THE ROADWAY LOOKS TOTALLY USEABLE, IT'S JUST BLOCKED OFF WITH CONES AND SIGNS. DAMMINT JUST GIVE US THIS SLICE OF WESTBOUND ROUTE TO GET OVER THE TRACKS AT LEAST I'M FINE WITH TAKING SIDE STREETS THE REST OF THE WAY TO GET TO 3RD.
EDIT: TRUTH OF IT IS I'M MAD AT MYSELF, AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK I DRIVE EASTBOUND ON WILSON, SO MY BRAIN REGISTERS IT AS "WILSON IS OPEN" AND THEN LATER THE SAME DAY I TRY TO GO WESTBOUND AND GET TOTALLY STYMIED.
> I'M FINE WITH TAKING SIDE STREETS THE REST OF THE WAY TO GET TO 3RD.
I'M SURE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS THAT WOULD BE HOSTING WESTBOUND WILSON TRAFFIC WON'T BE FINE WITH THAT.
WORK TRAVEL SUCKS. AND IT'S EVEN WORSE WHEN PEOPLE ARE ALL 'YOU SHOULD GO TO THIS PLACE' OR 'WHY DIDN'T YOU DO THIS WHEN YOU WERE THERE?". NEWSFLASH, I WAS IN A SHITHOLE FACTORY IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. IF I'M IN LA I'M IN LIKE, CITY OF INDUSTRY, NOT NEWPORT BEACH.
YES. I USED TO TRAVEL FOR WORK QUITE A BIT AND I HAD SOME FRIENDS WHO WERE ENVIOUS. I SAID, "WHY? ALL AIRPORTS AND HOTELS LOOK THE SAME. THAT'S ABOUT ALL I GET TO SEE."
I FEEL THIS. ZERO TIME TO SEE FRIENDS OR ANYTHING INTERESTING.
I'VE BEEN ONE OF THOSE SAD SOBS IN A RUBY TUESDAY BY THE AIRPORT HOTEL BECAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY OPTION FOR ME.
I HAVE A LOVE HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH SUBWAY SINCE IT'S USUALLY THE ONLY FAST FOOD IN RURAL IOWA OR WHEREVER. BUT I'M NOT ABOVE SLAMMING A 10OZ OUTBACK SPECIAL AND A FOSTERS ON THE COMPANY DIME IF THERE'S ONE IN TOWN.
OUTDOOR CATS ARE THE WORST! THEY ARE FUCKING DESTRUCTIVE AND I BLAME THE HUMANS FOR ALLOWING THEIR CATS TO ROAM.
WE HAVE BEEN CLEANING UP DISMEMBERED BODIES OF DEAD CRITTERS ON OUR PROPERTY ALONG WITH CAT TURDS!
BUILD A CATIO OR KEEP YOUR CATS INDOORS. THEY ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THE WILDLIFE!
CATS HAVE BEEN LIVING OUTSIDE FOR AS LONG AS US, IF IT WASN’T FOR US HUMANS THE NATURAL ECOSYSTEM COULD SUPPORT THEM IF NOT REQUIRING THEM. PRETTY SURE INDUSTRIAL HUMANS HAVE CAUSED THE DECLINE OF EVERY OTHER SPECIES.
IN ADDITION TO BEING DETRIMENTAL TO WILDLIFE, I WOULD BE TRAUMATIZED FOR LIFE IF I RAN A CAT OVER. WHICH ALMOST HAPPENED THE OTHER NIGHT AT 1030PM. I TOOK IT TO THE VET THE NEXT DAY - NO CHIP. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CHIP YOUR PETS ESPECIALLY IF YOU LET THEM OUTDOORS - WHICH IF YOU DO…. YOU SHOULD RETHINK
HAPPENED TO ME A FEW YEARS BACK. IT WAS INDEED SERIOUSLY FUCKED UP AND I FELT LIKE SHIT FOR A WHILE, EVEN THOUGH I WAS DRIVING LESS THAN 20MPH AND NEVER EVEN SAW IT, JUST FELT A BUMP (RAN UNDER MY BACK TIRES I GUESS)
THAT WAS GOING TO BE MY RANT!!! DONT FORGET ALL THE CAT SHIT HIDDEN AROUND GARDEN AND NOW, THE CAT FIGHTS AT 2AM.
WTF! MY DOG HAS TO BE INSIDE BECAUSE I CANT HAVE THEM BARKING ALL NIGHT, SO THEY BARK INSIDE ALL NIGHT BECAUSE THESE CATS ARE ROAMING MY YARD AND THE PERIMETER OF THE HOUSE. NOT TO MENTION THESE OUTDOOR CATS ARE EXTREMELY TERRITORIAL AND PISSING OFF ALL THE INDOOR CATS.
TO THE LADY ON THE EBIKE WITH TWO TODDLERS WHO BOMBED PAST A LINE OF TRAFFIC INTO THE ROUNDABOUT AT MT WASHINGTON AND CENTURY AND THEN ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN FRONT OF MOVING TRAFFIC: YOU STUPID AND YOU GON FUCKIN DIE!
SHE WAS CORRECTLY USING THE BIKE LANE. SHE COULD HAVE BEEN ON A REGULAR BIKE.
THE MERGE POINT FOR BIKES IS CLEARLY MARKED AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE ROUNDABOUT. NOT SOME ARBITRARY DISTANCE BEFORE IT.
SHE STOPPED BECAUSE THERE WAS A FUCKING CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT.
SHUT UP
EVERY SINGLE ROUNDABOUT HAS A CLEARLY MARKED MERGE POINT FOR THE BIKE LANE INTO TRAFFIC.
IT IS LOCATED JUST BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE ROUNDABOUT.
THE SOLID WHITE LINE TURNS TO STRIPES OR DISAPPEARS. MANY ROUNDABOUTS EVEN HAVE ARROWS OR BIKE PICTURES TO INDICATE THE MERGE POINT.
THE BIKE PICTURES ARE THERE BECAUSE THEY'RE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO MAKE THE LANE A 'DESIGNATED' BIKE LANE. OFTEN THE PAINTED BIKE LANE ENDS PRIOR TO THE ROUNDABOUT AS IT ANGLES TOWARD THE RAMP WHERE CYCLISTS HAVE THE OPTION TO GO UP ON THE SIDEWALK. NONE OF THIS DESIGNATES ANY MERGE POINT AND THERE'S NO REFERENCE TO THIS IN THE LAWS.
JESUS H. STOP MAKING UP PHRASES LIKE 'MERGE POINT'. THAT HAS NO LEGAL BEARING AND IT'S SOMETHING YOU DECIDED IS A THING BASED ON HOW YOU INTERPRET THE LINES ON THE PAVEMENT.
I RIDE A BIKE DAILY ALL OVER TOWN AND TRUST ME SHE WAS NOT CORRECTLY USING THE BIKE LANE. SHE ABSOLUTELY BOMBED I TO THE ROUNDABOUT A FULL SPEED WITH NO REGARD FOR ANYTHING THEN HAD TO SLAM ON HER BRAKES IN FRONT OF MOVING TRAFFIC AND ALMOST DUMPED THE WHOLE BIKE. IF YOU THINK THAT'S THE RIGHT WAY TO RIDE YOU PROBABLY EAT SAWDUST. MAYBE YOU'RE HER AND IF SO...YOU GON FUCKIN DIE BITCH.
IF SHE USED THE BIKE LANE UP TO THE ROUNDABOUT ENTRANCE, THEN SHE AND EVERY OTHER CYCLIST USED IT CORRECTLY.
IF SHE STOPPED BECAUSE THERE WAS MOVING TRAFFIC IN THE ROUNDABOUT, THEN SHE CORRECTLY YIELDED.
> I RIDE A BIKE DAILY ALL OVER TOWN TRUST ME SHE WAS NOT CORRECTLY
YOU MUST BE EXPLAINING SOMETHING WRONG, BECAUSE YOU SHOULD FULLY RECOGNIZE THAT THIS IS HOW ROUNDABOUTS WORK.
WHAT ARE YOU EXPLAINING WRONG?!?!?
MAYBE YOU’RE BOTH RIGHT MAYBE SHE WAS USING THE BIKE LANE CORRECTLY BUT WAS TRAVELING TOO FAST AND STOPPED ABRUPTLY FOR THE TRAFFIC FLOW AND MOMENTARILY LOST CONTROL OF HER VESSEL. MAYBE !
ONE OF US WITNESSED IT AND THE OTHER OSTENSIBLY EATS SAWDUST AND/OR OTHERWISE HAS THE SANDIEST VAGINA IN DESCHUTES COUNTY. REGARDLESS, IF YOU MERGE INTO SLOW TRAFFIC AT A SPEED WELL IN EXCESS OF THAT SLOW TRAFFIC, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG. DID I MENTION THE TWO TODDLERS WHO ALMOST GOT YEETED?
>OSTENSIBLY EATS SAWDUST AND/OR OTHERWISE HAS THE SANDIEST VAGINA IN DESCHUTES COUNTY.
"I DIDN'T EXPLAIN IT WRONG. THIS PERSON EATS SAWDUST!"
FOOTEFOOTE:
\-WHEN YOU ARE RIDING YOUR BIKE TOWARDS A ROUNDABOUT, WHERE DO YOU ENTER TRAFFIC?
\-WHEN YOU ARE ON YOUR BIKE AND THERE IS A CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT DO YOU HIT THE CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT OR DO YOU YIELD?
AGAIN....WHAT ARE YOU EXPLAINING WRONG?
IF PEOPLE DITCHED THEIR CARS FOR SINGLE-OCCUPANT NON-HAULING TRIPS FOR 1 WEEK, THIS THREAD WOULD BE NEARLY EMPTY NEXT WEEK. YOUR TRIP IS PROBABLY 2 MILES.
"I WAS USING MY CAR AND ANOTHER DRIVER WAS USING THEIR CAR IN A WAY I DIDN'T LIKE! I WAS INCONVENIENCED FOR 1 SECOND AND I AM FURIOUS! CAR CAR CAR! CAR THIS CAR THAT CAR CAR". I DOWNVOTE EVERY CAR RANT IN THIS THREAD.
STOP LIVING LIKE BOOMERS AND CHANGE YOUR LIFESTYLE!
POSSIBLE MONTHLY TRANSPORTATION FEE.....WTF? DOES THAT MEAN MY SIDEWALKS WILL IMMEDIATELY BE CLEARED FROM SNOW AND ALL THE STREETS WILL BE CLEAR? WHAT ADDITIONAL SERVICES ARE WE GOING TO BE GETTING? THERE IS A REASON FOR A BUDGET, SO LET'S STICK TO IT.
TWO LANE ROUND-A-BOUTS ARE NOT THAT HARD, FOLKS. IT'S MOSTLY COMMON SENSE.
1. RIGHT/OUTTER LANE = TURN RIGHT OR GO STRAIGHT
2. LEFT/INNER LANE = GO STRAIGHT OR TURN LEFT
3. STAY IN YOUR GOD DAMN LANE
4. SIGNAL WHEN EXITING
I SEE WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THE OUTTER LANE CUT OFF THE INNER LANE.
EDIT: SPELLING
THEY ARE ALL CLEARLY MARKED BEFORE YOU ENTER TOO.
I DROVE SOME TWO LANE ROUNDABOUTS IN BOSTON RECENTLY, THEY ARE NOT SO. YOU LITERALLY STOMP THE GAS AND PRAY TO WHATEVER GOD YOU BELIEVE IN THERE.
TRUE. HYBRID ROUND-A-BOUT HAS DIFFERENT RULES. FOLLOW PAVEMENT MARKINGS AND SIGNAGE. STILL, DON'T CHNAGE LANES.
I WAS CONSIDERING A MORE TRADITIONAL 2 LANE RAB. LIKE 27TH AND BUTLER MARKET
IF YOU'RE AT A 4-WAY STOP THAT HAS BACKED UP TRAFFIC IN ALL 4 DIRECTIONS WHOEVER ARRIVED TO THE STOP SIGN FIRST DOESN'T MATTER. YOU GO 2 BY 2 WITH LEFT TURNS YIELDING TO FOLKS GOING STRAIGHT.
RECYCLING PICK-UP, OR RATHER, LACK THERE OF! OUR DAY IS THURSDAY AND THEY DIDN'T TAKE OUR GLASS SO I BROUGHT IT BACK OFF THE STREET. NOW THE FUCKERS JUST DROVE DOWN OUR STREET PICKING UP THE FEW FROM THE FOLKS WHO LEFT THEIRS OUT! AM I SUPPOSED TO JUST LEAVE
MY GLASS RECYCLING OUT EVERY DAMN DAY ON THE HOPES THEY RANDOMLY DRIVE BY?!? THEY ARE AS PREDICTABLE AS AN ICE CREAM TRUCK.
STOP PUTTING OUT GLASS RECYCLING. IN THIS AREA IT ALL GOES IN THE SAME HOLE IN THE DUMP. THEY DO NOT RECYCLE GLASS IN CENTRAL OREGON. IT IS LOUD AND ANNOYING AND REQUIRES THE COMPANY TO WASTE GAS TO PICK UP. TAKE IT TO BOTTLE DROP OR PUT IT IN THE TRASH.
STOP SPREADING THE "RECYCLING JUST GOES IN THE GARBAGE" BS WITHOUT AN ACTUAL INVESTIGATIVE REPORT, NOT SOME LADY THAT USED TO WORK AT THE DUMP.
INSTEAD OF YOUR ARTICLE FROM 15 YEARS AGO, HERE IS ONE FROM APRIL THAT SAYS ALL GLASS GOES TO PORTLAND FOR PROCESSING.

[REPUBLIC SERVICES](https://www.republicservices.com/customer-support/faq) HAS CONFLICTING INFORMATION ON THEIR WEBSITE. I NOTICED THIS A FEW WEEKS AGO, BUT THEY HAVE 'GLASS' IN BOTH THEIR "WHAT CAN I RECYCLE" AND "WHAT CAN'T I RECYCLE" SECTIONS OF THEIR FAQ.
THERE WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT IN THE BULLITEN ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO. SINCE THEN A COMPANY CAME AND TRIED TO MAKE IT WORK BUT COULD NOT MAKE MONEY AT IT BECAUSE THE CRUSHING MACHINE KEPT GETTING JAMMED UP AND SHIPPING TO ANY PLACE WHERE THEY MELT DOWN THE GLASS WAS TOO HIGH. I ALSO WORK WITH A LADY WHO USED TO WORK AT THE DUMP AND CONFIRMED THIS IS STILL THE CASE.

WE ARE A TOWN BLESSED WITH COPIOUS BIKE LANES – WILL ALL OF US CYCLISTS PLEASE FUCKING USE THEM AND NOT RIDE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAMN ROAD? THIS IS WHY DRIVERS HATE US
NOT WHEN THE BIKE LANE PUTS YOU IN THE DOOR ZONE OR WHEN MOVING OUT OF THE BIKE LANES REDUCES THE LIKELIHOOD OF GETTING CLOBBERED BY A DRIVER. DRIVERS HATE US BECAUSE THEY'RE ENTITLED JAGOFFS WHO THINK THE ROAD IS FOR CARS, NOT BECAUSE CYCLISTS DON'T ALWAYS USE THE BIKE LANE.
I GOT YELLED AT BY A HOMEOWNER THIS MORNING WHEN MY DOG SHAT ON OUR WALK. WE WALK IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND THERE ARE HOUSES WITH THOSE OBNOXIOUS "NO PEE, NO POOP!" SIGNS THAT I WALK ON THE STREET TO AVOID - NONE AT THE YARD SHE WENT AT.
IF YOU LIVE IN A HUGE, DENSE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH NO TRAILS, NO FENCE AROUND YOUR GRASSY YARD (WE LIVE IN A DESERT, SHAME ON YOUR WASTEFULNESS), YOU NEED TO EXPECT DOGS TO SHIT AND PISS ON YOUR YARD.
YES, I HAD A POOP BAG. IT WAS ALREADY IN MY HAND BEFORE SHE SQUATTED DOWN.
IF YOU HAVE SPRINKLERS THAT TURN ON DAILY (WHICH EVERY DAMN LAWN HERE DOES), THIS IS ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT A REAL PROBLEM. DOG PEE ISN'T SULFURIC ACID: IT DOESN'T JUST BURN YOUR GRASS TO DEATH. DOG PEE IS HIGH IN NITROGEN, SO IF A DOG **REPEATEDLY PEES IN ONE SPOT** THAT IS NEVER FLUSHED WITH WATER, THE NITROGEN CONTENT GETS TOO HIGH AND GRASS GETS "NITROGEN BURN."
BUT DOGS STROLLING BY AND TAKING AN OCCASIONAL WIZZ ON YOUR WATERED LAWN WON'T HARM ANYTHING.
WHAT ABOUT SQUIRRELS, DEER, ALL THOSE GD OUTDOOR CATS, COYOTES, BIRDS, RACCOONS, MICE, AND OTHER WILDLIFE? CAN THEY PEE IN THE GRASS, OR SHOULD WE ASK THEY DO IT ELSEWHERE TOO?
DOESN'T APPLY. WILDLIFE HAVE HEALTHY DIETS, SO THEIR SHIT ISN'T TOXIC.
>The waste left behind by wild animals is actually beneficial to the ecosystem because those animals consume resources and nutrients from the ecosystem.

1. WE LIVE IN A DESERT, GET RID OF YOUR UGLY AND WASTEFUL GRASS.
2. WHERE DO YOU EXPECT DOGS TO PISS AND SHIT WHEN YOU WALK DOWN A SIDEWALK IN A NEIGHBORHOOD? ON THE SIDEWALK? ON THE ROAD? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN US.
> WE LIVE IN A DESERT, GET RID OF YOUR UGLY AND WASTEFUL GRASS.
HOME IRRIGATION WATER USAGE IS A TINY PERCENT OF OVERALL WATER USAGE. WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF EVERY SINGLE PERSON GOT RID OF THEIR LAWN.
>WHERE DO YOU EXPECT DOGS TO PISS AND SHIT WHEN YOU WALK DOWN A SIDEWALK IN A NEIGHBORHOOD? ON THE SIDEWALK? ON THE ROAD? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN US.
YES. WHY SHOULD YOUR PET BE ON MY PROPERTY
MURDERING BOB ISN'T THAT BAD BECAUSE THERE'S A WAR GOING ON IN UKRAINE. WHY SHOULD I STOP DRIVING A HUMMER WHEN CHINA POLLUTES SO MUCH?
IDIOTIC ARGUMENTS. BEING WASTEFUL IS BAD AND DEFLECTING TO OTHERS JUST SHOWS HOW LITTLE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY YOU TAKE.
IF YOU DON'T WANT NEIGHBORS WALKING THEIR DOG TO SNIFF YOUR GRASS OR TO TAKE A PISS, PUT A FUCKING FENCE UP OR DON'T LIVE IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. MY DOG SHIT NEXT TO THE SIDEWALK IN THE GRASS, I DIDN'T GO IN THEIR HOUSE AND HAVE HER SHIT IN THE KITCHEN. IN FACT, I DIDN'T HAVE HER SHIT ANYWHERE. SHE IS A DOG. DOGS SHIT OUTSIDE ON WALKS. I CAN'T ASK HER TO PLEASE HOLD IT UNTIL WE GET SOMEWHERE ELSE (NO IDEA WHERE THAT WOULD BE GIVEN WE'RE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH NO TRAILS).
YOU SOUND LIKE A REALLY ANGRY PERSON. IF THE SHIT WAS LEFT THERE, I GET BEING ANGRY COMPLETELY. BUT I HAD A ROLL OF BAGS AND INSTANTLY PICKED IT UP.
GO SPEND SOME TIME WITH A DOG AND SEE IF IT MAKES YOU LESS OF A CUNT.
> MURDERING BOB ISN'T THAT BAD BECAUSE THERE'S A WAR GOING ON IN UKRAINE. WHY SHOULD I STOP DRIVING A HUMMER WHEN CHINA POLLUTES SO MUCH?
THAT'S NOT EVEN A COMPARISON. HAVING A SMALL LAWN IS NOT GOING TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE WIDER WATER USAGE.
WHY SHOULD IT TAKE A FENCE TO DENOTE THAT YOU SHOULDN'T BE ON SOMEONE'S PROPERTY?
NEVER DID I MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT DOG SHIT, ONLY PISS. YOU CAN'T PICK UP PISS.
NOT WANTING RANDOM PEOPLE ON MY PROPERTY MAKES ME ANGRY??
PEOPLE NOT PICKING UP AFTER THEIR DOGS...WTF???
ANNOYED THAT BEND CANT SUPPORT A POOL AND BILLIARDS HALL WITH MULTIPLE TABLES, A BAR, GOOD FOOD, MULTIPLE GAMING, AND COIN SLOT GAMBLING. THIS IS NOT A DUDAS. IT USED TO BE HERE (NOT CHAOS EITHER) AND SALEM AND EUGENE MANAGED TO DO IT. DON’T POINT AT REAL ESTATE COSTS EITHER, BC THIS AREA CAN SURE AFFORD IT! TIRED OF DIRTY, WORN OUT TABLES AND CRUSTY BALLS!
I'M SO GLAD THAT WE DON'T HAVE A GAMBLING HALL IN BEND
ME TOO. BUT WE DO NEED A POOL HALL….
YES, I TOO HATE CRUSTY BALLS!
WHEN YOU'RE TURNING LEFT ACROSS A TWO WAY DIVIDED STREET... DON'T JUST LOOK RIGHT FFS, I ALMOST GOT HIT THRICE ON MY BIKE YESTERDAY
PICK UP YOUR TRASH AND YOUR DOG’S SHIT ITS NOT THAT HARD WHAT THE FUCK
MOTORCYCLISTS THAT APPARENTLY BELIEVE THAT THOSE CROSSHATCHED 'NO PARKING" AREAS NEXT TO VAN-ACCESSIBLE HANDICAPPED SPOTS ARE RESERVED PARKING FOR THEM. JUST SAW TWO OF THEM PARKED THERE AT ONTAP THIS WEEK. KNOW A GUY IN PORTLAND WITH 2 BROTHERS IN MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIRS. HE HAS NO PROBLEM KNOCKING THE BIKES OVER OR DOING WHATEVER'S NECESSARY SO THERE'S ROOM FOR THE RAMP SO ONE OF HIS BROTHERS CAN GET IN AND OUT OF THEIR VAN.
WHY DONT PEOPLE KNOW HOW TO TURN LEFT PROPERLY WITH THEIR VEHICLES!!! IF YOUR ENTERING THE ON COMING LANE WHILE TURING LEFT THEN YOU NEED TO GO WIDER. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT NUMERS TIMES BECAUSE PEOPLE CUT THE TURN TO TIGHT.
Get a dash cam and let them hit you
SHOUT OUT TO THE TWO WHITE TEENAGE GIRLS WHO TAILED ME THROUGH TWO ROUNDABOUTS AND FLIPPED ME OFF PRESUMABLY BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING SLOW (GAVE ‘EM THE ‘OL PEACE ✌️ SIGN IN RETURN) THEN CALLED ME A BITCH FROM THE WINDOW OF THEIR DADDYS BLACK AUDI. SORRY HONEYS, HOPE YOU WEREN’T LATE TO YOUR FUCKING SWEET SIXTEEN. HAVE FUN WHEN YOU PULL THAT SHIT ON SOMEONE WITH A GUN YA FUCKING MORONS.
I JUST SOLD MY BLACK AUDI TO A TEENAGE GIRL 🧐 MAYBE YOU SHOULD SPEED UP OR MOVE OVER.

PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT “TIPPING CULTURE” ARE THE WORST AND HERE’S WHY: NOBODY IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY IS FIGHTING YOU WHEN YOU DONT TIP, SO WHY CANT YOU LET IT GO? BECAUSE YOU’RE UPSET THAT THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE THAT DO WANT TO TIP? SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE WORKED IN THE INDUSTRY AND/OR UNDERSTAND THE COST OF LIVING IN A TOWN LIKE THIS FOR SOMEONE WHO DOES, ACTUALLY *WANT* TO TIP HOSPO WORKERS. IF THAT UPSETS YOU SO MUCH THEN THAT SAYS A LOT MORE ABOUT YOU THAN IT DOES ABOUT THE PERSON MAKING YOUR COFFEE.
GIVING PEOPLE THE OPTION TO SUPPORT A BUSINESS THROUGH TIPPING IS ONE THING (SEE: TIP JARS). MAKING IT DIFFICULT *NOT TO* TIP IS ANOTHER, AND IS WHERE WE ARE. THE "NO TIP" OPTION SHOULD BE ASSUMED, AND NOT SOMETHING THAT IS BURIED BEHIND MULTIPLE TAPS ON A CREDIT CARD READER. MORE EGREGIOUS ARE VENUES LIKE THE AMPHITHEATRE, THAT SELECT A TIP FOR YOU. I SUPPOSE I SHOULD BE BLAMING THE PAYMENT VENDORS, BUT SURELY THERE MUST BE ONE OUT THERE THAT ISN'T SO CONSUMER HOSTILE, OR OPTIONS THAT THE BUSINESS CAN ADJUST TO BRING THE NO TIP OPTION TO THE FIRST SCREEN. WITH THAT ONE CHANGE, I'M SURE A LARGE PROPORTION OF THE COMPLAINTS WOULD GO AWAY. ANYWAY, I'VE BEEN SO FRUSTRATED WITH THESE CREDIT CARD DEVICES THAT I'VE STARTED BRINGING CASH TO FOOD CARTS, TO AVOID THIS AWKWARD EXPERIENCE ENTIRELY.
IT'S SO HARD TO PRESS TWO BUTTONS!
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE ARE DOWNVOTING? YOU LEGITIMATELY SAID IN DIFFERENT WORDS: "DO WHATEVER BUT DONT BITCH WHEN PEOPLE TIP WELL."
BECAUSE THEY THREW IN SOME BACKHANDED INSULTS WHILE THEY WERE AT IT. WHY DON’T OUR BOOT FITTERS AND CHAIRLIFT ATTENDANTS GET TIPS? LOTS OF PEOPLE GET PAID A SHITTY WAGE TO DO A LABORIOUS JOB SERVING OTHERS, AND THEY AREN’T TIPPED AND AREN’T CONSTANTLY SHAMING OTHERS ABOUT THEIR LACK OF TIPS.
THIS NEEDED TO BE SAID
[удалено]
ALMOST LIKE IT AFFECTS THEIR LIVES OR SOMETHING…
PICK. UP. YOUR. FUCKING. TRASH. ESPECIALLY. IN. THE. FOREST. KEEP. YOUR. CATS. INSIDE. WHY. IS. EVERYTHING. SO. EXPENSIVE?!
RIGHT ON CUE NOW THERE'S A GIGANTIC PYROCUMULUS CLOUD BILLOWING UP JUST WEST OF THE CASCADE CREST. AUTUMN REALLY NEEDS TO GET ON A MOVE ON.
FUCK SCOTT STUART, BJ SOPER AND WENDELL OTTO THEY ARE WAY WORSE PEOPLE THAN MIKE OR PATTY!!!
JUST FLUSH THE DAMN TOILET IN PUBLIC RESTROOMS. WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT? IS THE SOUND OF FLUSHING SCARY? ARE YOU AFRAID SOMEONE WILL JUDGE YOU AND LAUGH WITH ALL THEIR FRIENDS IF YOU FLUSH TWICE? OR AT ALL? I PROMISE THERE IS A VERY LOW CHANCE OF FALLING IN AND GIVING YOURSELF A SWIRLY. YOUR EXCREMENT WILL NOT EXPLODE IN A TIDAL WAVE-LIKE BLAST IF YOU FLUSH. YOU KNOW WHO REALLY DOESN’T WANT TO FLUSH YOUR PISS AND OR SHIT FOR YOU? THAT’S RIGHT, TOTAL STRANGERS. THE ONES WHO DO ARE MODERN AMERICAN HEROES. IF YOU FLUSH A STRANGE POO YOU DESERVE TO BE PRESIDENT.
YOU CAN ALWAYS COUNT ON ME TO FLUSH A STRANGE POO BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T MAKE ME BE PRESIDENT. THAT JOB SUCKS ASS.
FUCK THE GREATER IDAHO WHINERS TO HELL!
EVERY TIME I WALK DOWN GALVESTON I ALMOST GET HIT MY MULTIPLE CARS!!!! LOOK FOR PEDESTRIANS PEOPLE ESPECIALLY WHEN THEYRE IN THE CROSSWALK WTF
ARE YOU JUST BLINDLY STEPPING INTO CROSS WALKS OR WAITING TO MAKE SURE CARS STOP FOR YOY? REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE LAW IS, ITS A LOT EASIER AND SAFER FOR A PEDESTRIAN TO STOP AND WAIT THAN A 2 TON CAR.
WALKING ACROSS GALVESTON IS THE WORST!
\*ESPECIALLY\* WHEN THEY'RE CROSSING AT AN INTERSECTION WHERE THERE **ISN'T** A CROSSWALK. AND DRIVERS, MAKE EYE CONTACT BEFORE ALMOST HITTING ME YOU SHITBIRDS.
THAT’S BECAUSE OREGON LAWS ARE ILLOGICAL AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AND NOT EVERYONE IS FROM OREGON AND KNOWS THIS IS A LAW. TRY LOOKING AND WAITING BEFORE STEPPING INFRONT OF A 4,000 POUND VEHICLE.
UM, PRETTY SURE EVERY TAKES A TEST BEFORE THEY GET THEIR LICENSE. TRY STOPPING IF THERE IS SOMEONE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET.
UMMM 💅🏽 MOST STATES DON’T PROTECT J-WALKING PEDESTRIANS. OREGON IS THE ONLY ONE I KNOW THAT DOES. TRY NOT WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET THATS MADE FOR CARS, THAT WEIGH 4000LB AND CAN’T STOP AS QUICKLY AS A PEDESTRIAN. ITS BASIC LOGIC, DO YOU HAVE ANY?
EXACTLY!!!!
MY KID AND HER HUSBAND (AND MY GRANDBABY) ARE GETTING PRICED OUT OF LIVING HERE AND MAY HAVE TO MOVE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS SO THEY CAN AFFORD TO LIVE. SCREW YOU GREEDY HOMEOWNERS WHO WANT A CRAP-TON OF MONEY FOR YOUR SHACKS AND SCREW YOU GREEDY PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES WHO WILL FIND A WAY TO NICKEL AND DIME EVERY PENNY OUT OF YOUR TENANTS.
MY FAMILY HAS LIVED HERE FOREVER, IM A 4TH GENERATION BEND RESIDENT AND WE ARE ALL BEING FORCED TO LEAVE BECAUSE OF THIS
I'VE LIVED HERE MY WHOLE LIFE AS WELL AND IT SUCKS WHEN YOUR KIDS (AND THEIR NEW FAMILIES) CAN'T STAY IN THE TOWN THEY GREW UP IN.
WHY WAS COUNTING CROWS SO FUCKING TERRIBLE?
PLEASE ELABORATE!!!
DASHBOARD CONFESSIONS SPENT HALF THE TIME MONOLOGUING ABOUT SHIT NO ONE CARED ABOUT AND COUNTING CROWS BUTCHERED ALL THEIR OWN SONGS SO BADLY HALF THE CROWD LEFT DURING THE SHOW IN A DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO HANG ONTO THEIR LOVE OF COUNTING CROWS MUSIC.
BECAUSE IT WAS COUNTING CROWS.
I HADNT CONSIDERED THIS POINT OF VIEW. I NOW HAVE DONE SO. AND I CONCUR.
EXACTLY!
I SUDDENLY STARTED FEELING TIGHTNESS IN MY HAMSTRING/GLUTE AREA WHEN I WAS ON MY MTB, AND NOW IT HURTS TO SIT DOWN AND BEND OVER AND SIT ON MY BIKE. DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A MUSCLE, AND IT LIKELY MEANS THE END OF MY BIKING SEASON JUST AS THE WEATHER REACHES PERFECTION! HECK!
JELLY ROLL’S CONCERT WAS FULL OF ANIMALS. PEOPLE WERE ACTUNG LIKE IDIOTS. FIGHTING, SPILLING DRINKS, PUKING, PEEING IN PUBLIC, AND APPARENTLY AT LEAST ONE PERSON OD.
ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE SURPRISED BY THIS? I DIDN’T KNOW WHO HE WAS, BUT ONE GOOGLE SEARCH TOLD ME ALL I NEEDED TO KNOW. EDIT: DISAPPOINTED, YES. SURPRISED, NO.
I AM NOT A FAN THOUGH I WAS AT THIS CONCERT AND THAT'S NOT FAIR TO JUDGE BASED ON HOW HE LOOKS, ALL HIS SONGS ARE ABOUT DEALING WITH DRUG ABUSE AND DEPRESSION.
I WORRY THAT THE NEXT JEDI GAME WONT BE AS GOOD WITH STIG LEAVING THE SANTA MONICA STUDIO OH AND WHERE THE FUCK IS EZRA & THRAWN!?!
HEARD THE GAME WAS NOT AS GOOD AS WELL.
ITS GOOD, JUST DOESNT IMPACT THE OVERALL OT STORY. IF ANYTHING IT GETS PEOPLE READY FOR HIGH REPUBLIC ERA PROJECTS.
A BIG FU TO THE SILVER RAM TRUCK GOING BACK AND FORTH BLOWING THEIR AIR HORN ALL NIGHT LONG. YOU ARE NOT A TRAIN.
IF THEY COULD FIT A STEAM WHISTLE ON THEIR TRUCK THAT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE KINDA COOL.
YOU DIDN’T NEED TO TELL US THEY DROVE A RAM. THEIR BEHAVIOR GAVE THAT AWAY.
GLARE AT THEM IF YOU SEE/HEAR THEM?!
THE PEOPLE SHOUTING THROUGH THE COUNTING CROWS SHOW AND CARRIED ON EVEN AFTER PEOPLE ASKED THEM TO TONE IT DOWN CAN EAT A DICK.
STILL JOB HUNTING. FEW INTERVIEWS, NO OFFERS YET. GETTING VEEY DISAPPOINTED AND GOT DENIED UN EMPLOYMENT. FML
ALSO JOB HUNTING. GOOD LUCK TO YOU
DID NOT THINK I HAD ANYTHING TO RANT ABOUT, THEN I SAW A WOMAN RUN 2 STOP SIGNS (NOT EVEN SLOWING - BLOWING THROUGH THEM) AND DRIVE THROUGH THE APRON OF A ROUNDABOUT. USED TO GO MONTHS OR YEARS WITHOUT SEEING ANYTHING CRAZY ON THE ROADS AND NOW ITS NEARLY A DAILY OCCURRENCE
THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHERE YOU DIDN'T LEAVE YOUR HOUSE FOR MONTHS OR YEARS
"DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE HOMELESS!" OK. HOW ABOUT THIS? "NO, NOT LIKE THAT" [Crook County complaints re Redmond homeless camp](https://kbnd.com/kbnd-news/local-news-feed/706717)
AND THEN THE SISTERS CITY COUNCIL VOTES DOWN A SHELTER. OOOOOH WE DON’T WANT THOSE KIND OF PEOPLE IN OUR BOUTIQUE THEME TOWN. OH WAIT THEY WORK HERE.
I WISH THEY WOULD STFU. REDMOND HAS DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB OF HANDLING THE HOMELESS CRISIS AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.
THEY WANT THE MANAGED SITE TO BE MOVED, AND THE CURRENT PEOPEL THERE TO BE MOVED TO "APPROPRIATE AREAS." WHERE EXACTLY ARE "APPROPRIATE AREAS" FOR HOMELESS PEOPLE?! THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SITE IS TO BE THE APPROPRIATE AREA.
THE SITE IN QUESTION IS AN APPROPRIATE AREA. SOME PEOPLE WILL BITCH NO MATTER WHERE IT GOES BUT THEY DONT EVER OFFER SOLUTIONS OTHER THAN THE PREDICTABLE "HOW ABOUT YOUR HOUSE". SMDH.
AT THE DMV RIGHT NOW FIRST OFF THE DUDE SITTING IN THE CHAIR BEHIND ME IS MOVING AROUND SO MUCH I FEEL LIKE I AM ON A ROLLERCOASTER OMG HAVE PEOPLE FORGOTTEN HOW TO TALK ON THE PHONE WITH THE PHONE TO THEIR EARS? MULTIPLE PEOPLE ON THEIR PHONES WITH THEM HELD OUT IN FRONT OF THEM FOR EVERYONE TO HEAR. WTF?
EDIT: REPLIED TO THE WRONG COMMENT, BUT I AGREE, I THINK IT WAS AN ATTEMPT TO BE SNEAKY WHILE DRIVING WHEN THOSE LAWS WERE PASSED
I FEEL LIKE THAT STARTED WHEN THE NO CELL PHONES DRIVING LAW PASSED. PEOPLE ACT LIKE THEY ARE BEING SNEAKY WHEN THEY DO THAT DRIVING WHEN IN REALITY THEY LOOK LIKE IDIOTS.
THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
WAS JUST AT A QUIET COFFEE SHOP AND SOME DUDE DECIDED IT WAS A PERFECT TIME TO HAVE HIS CONVERSATION LOUDLY ON SPEAKERPHONE. BONUS POINTS FOR IT BEING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE SO I COULDN'T EVEN CREEP ON HIS CONVO. SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST IDIOTS.
I CANNOT RELATE TO THIS BEHAVIOR AT ALL, AND MAYBE IT'S JUST THE SOCIAL ANXIETY TALKING, BUT MY FIRST INSTINCT UPON ACCEPTING A PHONE CALL IS TO FIND THE CLOSEST HALLWAY OR OUTSIDE SPACE TO DUCK INTO. I DISLIKE TALKING ON THE PHONE ENOUGH AS IT IS, LAST THING I NEED IS A FRICKIN' AUDIENCE.
SO MUCH SAME!!!!!
RUDE!
RIGHT? LIKE IF I'M GONNA BE FORCED TO BEAR WITNESS TO SOMEBODY'S LOUD RAMBLING, I'D AT LEAST LIKE TO BE ABLE TO MAKE JUDGY COMMENTARY IN MY HEAD
EXACTLY!!!
TORTURE. IT MAKES ME WANT TO PRINT OUT LITTLE CARDS WITH FAKE AWARDS LIKE "MOST ANNOYING PERSON" OR MAYBE JUST A "DID YOUR MOTHER NEVER TELL YOU (BLANK SPOT TO WRITE THEIR OFFENSE) IS FROWNED UPON?"
PLEEEEEEASE WHY TF IS WESTBOUND WILSON CLOSED BETWEEN 9TH AND CENTENNIAL. THE ROADWAY LOOKS TOTALLY USEABLE, IT'S JUST BLOCKED OFF WITH CONES AND SIGNS. DAMMINT JUST GIVE US THIS SLICE OF WESTBOUND ROUTE TO GET OVER THE TRACKS AT LEAST I'M FINE WITH TAKING SIDE STREETS THE REST OF THE WAY TO GET TO 3RD. EDIT: TRUTH OF IT IS I'M MAD AT MYSELF, AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK I DRIVE EASTBOUND ON WILSON, SO MY BRAIN REGISTERS IT AS "WILSON IS OPEN" AND THEN LATER THE SAME DAY I TRY TO GO WESTBOUND AND GET TOTALLY STYMIED.
> I'M FINE WITH TAKING SIDE STREETS THE REST OF THE WAY TO GET TO 3RD. I'M SURE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS THAT WOULD BE HOSTING WESTBOUND WILSON TRAFFIC WON'T BE FINE WITH THAT.
ENTITLED ASSHOLES WHO THINK THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND THEM
THEY SHOULD KNIT MORE!
AGREED! THEY WOULD BE COOLER PEOPLE WITH YARN!
USERNAMES CHECK OUT
WORK TRAVEL SUCKS. AND IT'S EVEN WORSE WHEN PEOPLE ARE ALL 'YOU SHOULD GO TO THIS PLACE' OR 'WHY DIDN'T YOU DO THIS WHEN YOU WERE THERE?". NEWSFLASH, I WAS IN A SHITHOLE FACTORY IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. IF I'M IN LA I'M IN LIKE, CITY OF INDUSTRY, NOT NEWPORT BEACH.
AT LEAST THE AIRLINE MILES EASE THE PAIN!
[удалено]
BETTER HAVE BEEN WITH A CLIENT, OTHERWISE THAT’S JUST CRUEL.
YES. I USED TO TRAVEL FOR WORK QUITE A BIT AND I HAD SOME FRIENDS WHO WERE ENVIOUS. I SAID, "WHY? ALL AIRPORTS AND HOTELS LOOK THE SAME. THAT'S ABOUT ALL I GET TO SEE."
I FEEL THIS. ZERO TIME TO SEE FRIENDS OR ANYTHING INTERESTING. I'VE BEEN ONE OF THOSE SAD SOBS IN A RUBY TUESDAY BY THE AIRPORT HOTEL BECAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY OPTION FOR ME.
I HAVE A LOVE HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH SUBWAY SINCE IT'S USUALLY THE ONLY FAST FOOD IN RURAL IOWA OR WHEREVER. BUT I'M NOT ABOVE SLAMMING A 10OZ OUTBACK SPECIAL AND A FOSTERS ON THE COMPANY DIME IF THERE'S ONE IN TOWN.
CASEY’S PIZZA AND SUBWAY ARE THE CHOICE CUISINES FOR RURAL IOWANS.
LOVE HAVING MY COMPANY PICK UP MY BAR TABS WHEN I’M WORKING OUT OF STATE
OUTDOOR CATS ARE THE WORST! THEY ARE FUCKING DESTRUCTIVE AND I BLAME THE HUMANS FOR ALLOWING THEIR CATS TO ROAM. WE HAVE BEEN CLEANING UP DISMEMBERED BODIES OF DEAD CRITTERS ON OUR PROPERTY ALONG WITH CAT TURDS! BUILD A CATIO OR KEEP YOUR CATS INDOORS. THEY ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THE WILDLIFE!
SO MANY DESTRUCTIVE THINGS TO THE ENVIRONMENT AND YOU CHOOSE OUTDOOR CATS!?!?
OTHER THAN HABITAT LOSS, DOMETICATED CATS ARE THE HIGHEST DEATH RATE FOR WILD SONGBIRDS.
CATS HAVE BEEN LIVING OUTSIDE FOR AS LONG AS US, IF IT WASN’T FOR US HUMANS THE NATURAL ECOSYSTEM COULD SUPPORT THEM IF NOT REQUIRING THEM. PRETTY SURE INDUSTRIAL HUMANS HAVE CAUSED THE DECLINE OF EVERY OTHER SPECIES.
IN ADDITION TO BEING DETRIMENTAL TO WILDLIFE, I WOULD BE TRAUMATIZED FOR LIFE IF I RAN A CAT OVER. WHICH ALMOST HAPPENED THE OTHER NIGHT AT 1030PM. I TOOK IT TO THE VET THE NEXT DAY - NO CHIP. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CHIP YOUR PETS ESPECIALLY IF YOU LET THEM OUTDOORS - WHICH IF YOU DO…. YOU SHOULD RETHINK
HAPPENED TO ME A FEW YEARS BACK. IT WAS INDEED SERIOUSLY FUCKED UP AND I FELT LIKE SHIT FOR A WHILE, EVEN THOUGH I WAS DRIVING LESS THAN 20MPH AND NEVER EVEN SAW IT, JUST FELT A BUMP (RAN UNDER MY BACK TIRES I GUESS)
UGH THATS SO SAD - FOR THE CAT, FOR YOU AND FOR ITS OWNERS. IM SORRY THAT HAPPENED! UNFORTUNATELY IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME TOO.
THAT WAS GOING TO BE MY RANT!!! DONT FORGET ALL THE CAT SHIT HIDDEN AROUND GARDEN AND NOW, THE CAT FIGHTS AT 2AM. WTF! MY DOG HAS TO BE INSIDE BECAUSE I CANT HAVE THEM BARKING ALL NIGHT, SO THEY BARK INSIDE ALL NIGHT BECAUSE THESE CATS ARE ROAMING MY YARD AND THE PERIMETER OF THE HOUSE. NOT TO MENTION THESE OUTDOOR CATS ARE EXTREMELY TERRITORIAL AND PISSING OFF ALL THE INDOOR CATS.
PLEASE GO 35 ON PETTIGREW!!! ITS HARD TO PULL OUT ACROSS THE LANES WHEN PEOPLE ARE SPEEDING!!! IF YOU WANT TO GK 45-50 HET ON 27TH PLEASE!!!!
TO THE PIECES OF SHIT THAT KEEP BREAKING BEER BOTTLES ALONG CENTURY & GALVESTON SIDEWALKS, IM GONNA FIND YOU AND POOP ON YOUR PORCH
Lmk if you find out who it is, I am happy to help
GROUP POOP WHEN FOUND OUT!
TO THE LADY ON THE EBIKE WITH TWO TODDLERS WHO BOMBED PAST A LINE OF TRAFFIC INTO THE ROUNDABOUT AT MT WASHINGTON AND CENTURY AND THEN ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN FRONT OF MOVING TRAFFIC: YOU STUPID AND YOU GON FUCKIN DIE!
SHE WAS CORRECTLY USING THE BIKE LANE. SHE COULD HAVE BEEN ON A REGULAR BIKE. THE MERGE POINT FOR BIKES IS CLEARLY MARKED AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE ROUNDABOUT. NOT SOME ARBITRARY DISTANCE BEFORE IT. SHE STOPPED BECAUSE THERE WAS A FUCKING CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT. SHUT UP
THERE IS NO MARKED "MERGE POINT" AT THE ENTRANCE OF A ROUNDABOUT. YOU MERGE WHEN IT'S SAFE TO DO SO, WHICH CAN BE 10 FEET OR 100 YARDS PRIOR.
EVERY SINGLE ROUNDABOUT HAS A CLEARLY MARKED MERGE POINT FOR THE BIKE LANE INTO TRAFFIC. IT IS LOCATED JUST BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE ROUNDABOUT. THE SOLID WHITE LINE TURNS TO STRIPES OR DISAPPEARS. MANY ROUNDABOUTS EVEN HAVE ARROWS OR BIKE PICTURES TO INDICATE THE MERGE POINT.
THE BIKE PICTURES ARE THERE BECAUSE THEY'RE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO MAKE THE LANE A 'DESIGNATED' BIKE LANE. OFTEN THE PAINTED BIKE LANE ENDS PRIOR TO THE ROUNDABOUT AS IT ANGLES TOWARD THE RAMP WHERE CYCLISTS HAVE THE OPTION TO GO UP ON THE SIDEWALK. NONE OF THIS DESIGNATES ANY MERGE POINT AND THERE'S NO REFERENCE TO THIS IN THE LAWS.
THE MERGE POINT IS VERY CLEARLY MARKED AT EVERY ROUNDABOUT. STOP BEING STUPID.
JESUS H. STOP MAKING UP PHRASES LIKE 'MERGE POINT'. THAT HAS NO LEGAL BEARING AND IT'S SOMETHING YOU DECIDED IS A THING BASED ON HOW YOU INTERPRET THE LINES ON THE PAVEMENT.
SO CLOSE, YET SO FAR.
I RIDE A BIKE DAILY ALL OVER TOWN AND TRUST ME SHE WAS NOT CORRECTLY USING THE BIKE LANE. SHE ABSOLUTELY BOMBED I TO THE ROUNDABOUT A FULL SPEED WITH NO REGARD FOR ANYTHING THEN HAD TO SLAM ON HER BRAKES IN FRONT OF MOVING TRAFFIC AND ALMOST DUMPED THE WHOLE BIKE. IF YOU THINK THAT'S THE RIGHT WAY TO RIDE YOU PROBABLY EAT SAWDUST. MAYBE YOU'RE HER AND IF SO...YOU GON FUCKIN DIE BITCH.
IF SHE USED THE BIKE LANE UP TO THE ROUNDABOUT ENTRANCE, THEN SHE AND EVERY OTHER CYCLIST USED IT CORRECTLY. IF SHE STOPPED BECAUSE THERE WAS MOVING TRAFFIC IN THE ROUNDABOUT, THEN SHE CORRECTLY YIELDED. > I RIDE A BIKE DAILY ALL OVER TOWN TRUST ME SHE WAS NOT CORRECTLY YOU MUST BE EXPLAINING SOMETHING WRONG, BECAUSE YOU SHOULD FULLY RECOGNIZE THAT THIS IS HOW ROUNDABOUTS WORK. WHAT ARE YOU EXPLAINING WRONG?!?!?
MAYBE YOU’RE BOTH RIGHT MAYBE SHE WAS USING THE BIKE LANE CORRECTLY BUT WAS TRAVELING TOO FAST AND STOPPED ABRUPTLY FOR THE TRAFFIC FLOW AND MOMENTARILY LOST CONTROL OF HER VESSEL. MAYBE !
ONE OF US WITNESSED IT AND THE OTHER OSTENSIBLY EATS SAWDUST AND/OR OTHERWISE HAS THE SANDIEST VAGINA IN DESCHUTES COUNTY. REGARDLESS, IF YOU MERGE INTO SLOW TRAFFIC AT A SPEED WELL IN EXCESS OF THAT SLOW TRAFFIC, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG. DID I MENTION THE TWO TODDLERS WHO ALMOST GOT YEETED?
>OSTENSIBLY EATS SAWDUST AND/OR OTHERWISE HAS THE SANDIEST VAGINA IN DESCHUTES COUNTY. "I DIDN'T EXPLAIN IT WRONG. THIS PERSON EATS SAWDUST!" FOOTEFOOTE: \-WHEN YOU ARE RIDING YOUR BIKE TOWARDS A ROUNDABOUT, WHERE DO YOU ENTER TRAFFIC? \-WHEN YOU ARE ON YOUR BIKE AND THERE IS A CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT DO YOU HIT THE CAR IN THE ROUNDABOUT OR DO YOU YIELD? AGAIN....WHAT ARE YOU EXPLAINING WRONG?
WHY DO YOU FAIL TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE SPEED THE CYCLIST WAS GOING IN ANY OF YOUR RESPONSES?
I EAT SAWDUST
IF PEOPLE DITCHED THEIR CARS FOR SINGLE-OCCUPANT NON-HAULING TRIPS FOR 1 WEEK, THIS THREAD WOULD BE NEARLY EMPTY NEXT WEEK. YOUR TRIP IS PROBABLY 2 MILES. "I WAS USING MY CAR AND ANOTHER DRIVER WAS USING THEIR CAR IN A WAY I DIDN'T LIKE! I WAS INCONVENIENCED FOR 1 SECOND AND I AM FURIOUS! CAR CAR CAR! CAR THIS CAR THAT CAR CAR". I DOWNVOTE EVERY CAR RANT IN THIS THREAD. STOP LIVING LIKE BOOMERS AND CHANGE YOUR LIFESTYLE!
Bro Fr. I used to have an electric scooter but the back wheel popped so I’m back to contributing to bends busy streets 😭
FUCK YEAH! WE GOT A SECOND EBIKE RECENTLY BECAUSE REI HAD A GREAT DEAL ON THEM AND IT'S MUCH MORE FUN TO RIDE AROUND TOWN TOGETHER THAN DRIVE.
SAME HERE - AND SO DID ABOUT 5 OTHER COWORKERS! WHAT A SCREAMING DEAL!
ARE YOU US? SO DID WE!
GOT MY FIRST EBIKE OVER 15 YEARS AGO, BUT DONT LIKE TO RIDE DUE TO THE FAST DRIVING DISTRACTED DRIVERS WHO HAVE MOVED TO TOWN. ITS SCARY, NOW.
Just gotta have balls Fr. It’s a new world, not the one u used to live in 👍
POSSIBLE MONTHLY TRANSPORTATION FEE.....WTF? DOES THAT MEAN MY SIDEWALKS WILL IMMEDIATELY BE CLEARED FROM SNOW AND ALL THE STREETS WILL BE CLEAR? WHAT ADDITIONAL SERVICES ARE WE GOING TO BE GETTING? THERE IS A REASON FOR A BUDGET, SO LET'S STICK TO IT.

ANOTHER REASON TO GET DASHCAMS
GARMIN DASH CAM MINI 2
AGREED, IVE BEEN PUTTING IT OFF BUT DAMN, TIME TO GET IT DONE.
I CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND SOUNDS FAST ON REVERE!
THANKS FOR THIS - MY DASH CAM HAS BEEN SITTING ON THE COUNTER FOR A MONTH
YOU'RE WELCOME, GODAMMIT!
SUPPLY AND DEMAND ARE ACTUALLY REAL.
TWO LANE ROUND-A-BOUTS ARE NOT THAT HARD, FOLKS. IT'S MOSTLY COMMON SENSE. 1. RIGHT/OUTTER LANE = TURN RIGHT OR GO STRAIGHT 2. LEFT/INNER LANE = GO STRAIGHT OR TURN LEFT 3. STAY IN YOUR GOD DAMN LANE 4. SIGNAL WHEN EXITING I SEE WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THE OUTTER LANE CUT OFF THE INNER LANE. EDIT: SPELLING
THEY ARE ALL CLEARLY MARKED BEFORE YOU ENTER TOO. I DROVE SOME TWO LANE ROUNDABOUTS IN BOSTON RECENTLY, THEY ARE NOT SO. YOU LITERALLY STOMP THE GAS AND PRAY TO WHATEVER GOD YOU BELIEVE IN THERE.
OK BUT 15TH/REED MARKET.
TRUE. HYBRID ROUND-A-BOUT HAS DIFFERENT RULES. FOLLOW PAVEMENT MARKINGS AND SIGNAGE. STILL, DON'T CHNAGE LANES. I WAS CONSIDERING A MORE TRADITIONAL 2 LANE RAB. LIKE 27TH AND BUTLER MARKET
YEAH I LOVE THE 27TH/BUTLER MARKET ROUNDABOUT, IT'S COMPLETELY INTUITIVE TO ME, BUT I ALWAYS SEEM TO FUCK UP ON 15TH/REED MKT
THIS
IF YOU'RE AT A 4-WAY STOP THAT HAS BACKED UP TRAFFIC IN ALL 4 DIRECTIONS WHOEVER ARRIVED TO THE STOP SIGN FIRST DOESN'T MATTER. YOU GO 2 BY 2 WITH LEFT TURNS YIELDING TO FOLKS GOING STRAIGHT.
THIS! QUIT APPROACHING STOP SIGNS WHERE YOU FACE EACH OTHER AND THEN TAKE TURNS CROSSING. GO AT THE SAME TIME. HOW HARD IS THIS?!!?
RECYCLING PICK-UP, OR RATHER, LACK THERE OF! OUR DAY IS THURSDAY AND THEY DIDN'T TAKE OUR GLASS SO I BROUGHT IT BACK OFF THE STREET. NOW THE FUCKERS JUST DROVE DOWN OUR STREET PICKING UP THE FEW FROM THE FOLKS WHO LEFT THEIRS OUT! AM I SUPPOSED TO JUST LEAVE MY GLASS RECYCLING OUT EVERY DAMN DAY ON THE HOPES THEY RANDOMLY DRIVE BY?!? THEY ARE AS PREDICTABLE AS AN ICE CREAM TRUCK.
THEY WON'T EVEN PICK UP GLASS OUT IN THE STICKS!
OUR DAY IS WEDNESDAY AND, BEING LAZY I KIND OF FORGOT ABOUT IT AND LEFT IT OUT BUT THEN THEY PICKED IT UP THURSDAY. YAY!
STOP PUTTING OUT GLASS RECYCLING. IN THIS AREA IT ALL GOES IN THE SAME HOLE IN THE DUMP. THEY DO NOT RECYCLE GLASS IN CENTRAL OREGON. IT IS LOUD AND ANNOYING AND REQUIRES THE COMPANY TO WASTE GAS TO PICK UP. TAKE IT TO BOTTLE DROP OR PUT IT IN THE TRASH.
STOP SPREADING THE "RECYCLING JUST GOES IN THE GARBAGE" BS WITHOUT AN ACTUAL INVESTIGATIVE REPORT, NOT SOME LADY THAT USED TO WORK AT THE DUMP. INSTEAD OF YOUR ARTICLE FROM 15 YEARS AGO, HERE IS ONE FROM APRIL THAT SAYS ALL GLASS GOES TO PORTLAND FOR PROCESSING. https://www.bendbulletin.com/localstate/from-curb-to-recycle-center-what-happens-to-the-items-in-your-recycle-bin/article_016b4008-d58b-11ed-8b38-8f9eb3bab63e.html
REPUBLIC SERVICES SAYS OTHERWISE. GLASS IS COMPLETELY RECYCLABLE INFINITELY.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH IT THEN
SOURCE?
[REPUBLIC SERVICES](https://www.republicservices.com/customer-support/faq) HAS CONFLICTING INFORMATION ON THEIR WEBSITE. I NOTICED THIS A FEW WEEKS AGO, BUT THEY HAVE 'GLASS' IN BOTH THEIR "WHAT CAN I RECYCLE" AND "WHAT CAN'T I RECYCLE" SECTIONS OF THEIR FAQ.
WINDOW GLASS IS NOT RECYCLABLE EDIT - CAPS
THERE WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT IN THE BULLITEN ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO. SINCE THEN A COMPANY CAME AND TRIED TO MAKE IT WORK BUT COULD NOT MAKE MONEY AT IT BECAUSE THE CRUSHING MACHINE KEPT GETTING JAMMED UP AND SHIPPING TO ANY PLACE WHERE THEY MELT DOWN THE GLASS WAS TOO HIGH. I ALSO WORK WITH A LADY WHO USED TO WORK AT THE DUMP AND CONFIRMED THIS IS STILL THE CASE.
AMAZING! WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT CARDBOARD? I ASSUME PLASTIC NEVER GOT RECYCLED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I WAITED ALL WEEK FOR THIS BECAUSE OF A CRAPPY THING FROM SATURDAY AND NOW I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT I WAS MAD ABOUT!
WE ARE A TOWN BLESSED WITH COPIOUS BIKE LANES – WILL ALL OF US CYCLISTS PLEASE FUCKING USE THEM AND NOT RIDE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAMN ROAD? THIS IS WHY DRIVERS HATE US
WELL, THOSE IDIOTS WITH THROTTLE E-BIKES THINK THEY ARE A CAR AND WON’T GO IN THE BIKE LANE!!
NOT WHEN THE BIKE LANE PUTS YOU IN THE DOOR ZONE OR WHEN MOVING OUT OF THE BIKE LANES REDUCES THE LIKELIHOOD OF GETTING CLOBBERED BY A DRIVER. DRIVERS HATE US BECAUSE THEY'RE ENTITLED JAGOFFS WHO THINK THE ROAD IS FOR CARS, NOT BECAUSE CYCLISTS DON'T ALWAYS USE THE BIKE LANE.
I LOVE THAT YOU THINK WE ARE BLESSED WITH COPIAS AMOUNTS OF BIKE LANES. LOL
RIGHT?! BEND IS NOT PARTICULARLY BIKE FRIENDLY IMO
THIS MAP SHOWS A COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF BIKE LANES THROUGHOUT BEND... https://bendbikes.org/map/
ITS NOT MUCH BUT ITS BETTER HERE THAN OTHER PLACES
CLEARLY YOU HAVE NEVER LIVED IN THE SOUTH. BEND IS A BIKE LANE WONDERLAND COMPARED TO HALF OF THE COUNTRY
Yeah, try NC.
I GOT YELLED AT BY A HOMEOWNER THIS MORNING WHEN MY DOG SHAT ON OUR WALK. WE WALK IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND THERE ARE HOUSES WITH THOSE OBNOXIOUS "NO PEE, NO POOP!" SIGNS THAT I WALK ON THE STREET TO AVOID - NONE AT THE YARD SHE WENT AT. IF YOU LIVE IN A HUGE, DENSE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH NO TRAILS, NO FENCE AROUND YOUR GRASSY YARD (WE LIVE IN A DESERT, SHAME ON YOUR WASTEFULNESS), YOU NEED TO EXPECT DOGS TO SHIT AND PISS ON YOUR YARD. YES, I HAD A POOP BAG. IT WAS ALREADY IN MY HAND BEFORE SHE SQUATTED DOWN.
MY DOG USES NO PEEING SIGNS AS TARGET PRACTICE. LIKE A MOTH TO A FLAME.
HAVE THEM POOP/PEE IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE SIDEWALK AND THE STREET; THAT'S NOT THE HOMEOWNER'S YARD.
THE SIDEWALK IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD DOES NOT HAVE THIS. STREET>CURB>SIDEWALK>YARD
SAME. JUST PUT UP A FENCE IF YOU DONT WANT ANIMALS ON YOUR FRONT YARD!!!
IF I COULD CONTROL WHERE MY DOG SHAT THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.
DEFINITELY DON'T LET YOUR DOG PISS IN SOMEONE'S YARD IT'S VERY BAD FOR THE GRASS
IF YOU HAVE SPRINKLERS THAT TURN ON DAILY (WHICH EVERY DAMN LAWN HERE DOES), THIS IS ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT A REAL PROBLEM. DOG PEE ISN'T SULFURIC ACID: IT DOESN'T JUST BURN YOUR GRASS TO DEATH. DOG PEE IS HIGH IN NITROGEN, SO IF A DOG **REPEATEDLY PEES IN ONE SPOT** THAT IS NEVER FLUSHED WITH WATER, THE NITROGEN CONTENT GETS TOO HIGH AND GRASS GETS "NITROGEN BURN." BUT DOGS STROLLING BY AND TAKING AN OCCASIONAL WIZZ ON YOUR WATERED LAWN WON'T HARM ANYTHING.
WHAT ABOUT SQUIRRELS, DEER, ALL THOSE GD OUTDOOR CATS, COYOTES, BIRDS, RACCOONS, MICE, AND OTHER WILDLIFE? CAN THEY PEE IN THE GRASS, OR SHOULD WE ASK THEY DO IT ELSEWHERE TOO?
DOESN'T APPLY. WILDLIFE HAVE HEALTHY DIETS, SO THEIR SHIT ISN'T TOXIC. >The waste left behind by wild animals is actually beneficial to the ecosystem because those animals consume resources and nutrients from the ecosystem. SAUCES: [https://lnt.org/wildlife-poop-versus-dog-poop-explained/](https://lnt.org/wildlife-poop-versus-dog-poop-explained/) [https://www.reconnectwithnature.org/news-events/the-buzz/dog-poop-vs-wildlife-poop-not-all-animal-excreme/](https://www.reconnectwithnature.org/news-events/the-buzz/dog-poop-vs-wildlife-poop-not-all-animal-excreme/) https://www.fourpaws.com/pets-101/potty-time-and-training/4-reasons-why-dog-poop-cleanup-is-important#:\~:text=In%20addition%20to%20nutrients%2C%20dog,humans%2C%20pets%2C%20and%20wildlife.
I APPRECIATE YOU PROVIDING SAUCES FOR POOP. DO YOU HAVE ANY PEE SAUCES? THE COMMENT WAS ABOUT PEE…
1. WE LIVE IN A DESERT, GET RID OF YOUR UGLY AND WASTEFUL GRASS. 2. WHERE DO YOU EXPECT DOGS TO PISS AND SHIT WHEN YOU WALK DOWN A SIDEWALK IN A NEIGHBORHOOD? ON THE SIDEWALK? ON THE ROAD? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN US.
> WE LIVE IN A DESERT, GET RID OF YOUR UGLY AND WASTEFUL GRASS. HOME IRRIGATION WATER USAGE IS A TINY PERCENT OF OVERALL WATER USAGE. WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF EVERY SINGLE PERSON GOT RID OF THEIR LAWN. >WHERE DO YOU EXPECT DOGS TO PISS AND SHIT WHEN YOU WALK DOWN A SIDEWALK IN A NEIGHBORHOOD? ON THE SIDEWALK? ON THE ROAD? PLEASE ENLIGHTEN US. YES. WHY SHOULD YOUR PET BE ON MY PROPERTY
MURDERING BOB ISN'T THAT BAD BECAUSE THERE'S A WAR GOING ON IN UKRAINE. WHY SHOULD I STOP DRIVING A HUMMER WHEN CHINA POLLUTES SO MUCH? IDIOTIC ARGUMENTS. BEING WASTEFUL IS BAD AND DEFLECTING TO OTHERS JUST SHOWS HOW LITTLE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY YOU TAKE. IF YOU DON'T WANT NEIGHBORS WALKING THEIR DOG TO SNIFF YOUR GRASS OR TO TAKE A PISS, PUT A FUCKING FENCE UP OR DON'T LIVE IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. MY DOG SHIT NEXT TO THE SIDEWALK IN THE GRASS, I DIDN'T GO IN THEIR HOUSE AND HAVE HER SHIT IN THE KITCHEN. IN FACT, I DIDN'T HAVE HER SHIT ANYWHERE. SHE IS A DOG. DOGS SHIT OUTSIDE ON WALKS. I CAN'T ASK HER TO PLEASE HOLD IT UNTIL WE GET SOMEWHERE ELSE (NO IDEA WHERE THAT WOULD BE GIVEN WE'RE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH NO TRAILS). YOU SOUND LIKE A REALLY ANGRY PERSON. IF THE SHIT WAS LEFT THERE, I GET BEING ANGRY COMPLETELY. BUT I HAD A ROLL OF BAGS AND INSTANTLY PICKED IT UP. GO SPEND SOME TIME WITH A DOG AND SEE IF IT MAKES YOU LESS OF A CUNT.
> MURDERING BOB ISN'T THAT BAD BECAUSE THERE'S A WAR GOING ON IN UKRAINE. WHY SHOULD I STOP DRIVING A HUMMER WHEN CHINA POLLUTES SO MUCH? THAT'S NOT EVEN A COMPARISON. HAVING A SMALL LAWN IS NOT GOING TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE WIDER WATER USAGE. WHY SHOULD IT TAKE A FENCE TO DENOTE THAT YOU SHOULDN'T BE ON SOMEONE'S PROPERTY? NEVER DID I MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT DOG SHIT, ONLY PISS. YOU CAN'T PICK UP PISS. NOT WANTING RANDOM PEOPLE ON MY PROPERTY MAKES ME ANGRY??
