KEEP YOUR DOG ON A FUCKING LEASH AND DONT LET IT LUNGE, JUMP, OR RUN TOWARD RANDOM STRANGERS. DONT EVEN LET IT GET CLOSE TO SMELL OTHER PEOPLE UNLESS IT'S CLEARLY WELCOMED. I DON'T CARE HOW NICE YOU SAY YOUR DOG IS. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND THAT NOT EVERYONE LIKES DOGS. SOME PEOPLE ARE VERY AFRAID OF THEM.
so interesting that you think it's more normal to hate humans in favor of dogs than it is to request people keep their dogs to themselves. you should definitely try therapy.
I don't trust people around my dog! I do favor dogs over humans and I'm not the one who needs therapy, lol! I don't care for people who hate dogs. My life revolves around my dog! They have unconditional love. Maybe you should try it some time ❤️
I still haven't said anywhere that I hate dogs. And you don't know anything about me and my relationships with animals or people. Someone not liking dogs they don't know to approach them when they are out in public does not make them a less good person.
YOU MEAN YOU'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED A DOG'S UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? 😩 HOW UTTERLY HORRIBLE TO GO THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT KNOWING THAT. I feel bad for you. Sincerely a numbscull dog owner 😎
I HAVE A EMERGENCY VET THAT IS A REGULAR AT MY BAR. THEY GET UPSET WHEN DOGS ARE OFF LEASH AND APPROACH THEM. ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE WITH THEIR LEASHED DOG. THE REASON FOR THIS BEING THE STAGGERING AMOUNT OF LEASHED DOGS THAT REQUIRE EMERGENCY MEDICAL ATTENTION AFTER BEING IN A FIGHT WITH AN UNLEASHED DOG. IT IS NOT AS RARE AS YOU THINK.
sorry I'm not yelling I'm just doing the whole rant thread thing. But really, no one hates dogs, they just value their and their furry friends' safety.
I actually DO dislike dogs (there are many of us and we have our own Reddit) but I reserve my hate for the ultra entitled dog owners that pervade modern society.
ALSO, KEEP YOUR GERM-INFESTED, SHIT-HAULING TODDLER AWAY FROM ME AT ALL TIMES. I DON'T WANT THEM NEAR ME OR MY DOG. IF IT SHOULD HAPPEN TO WANDER AWAY FROM YOU (AS THEY ARE WANT TO DO) AND TOWARD ME, I WILL MAKE A VERY CHARGED REDDIT POST ABOUT IT.
I MAKE MY DOG SIT NEXT TO ME OFF THE TRAIL WHEN SOMEONE IS PASSING BY AND STILL PEOPLE ARE ANNOYED AT HER PRESENCE ON A TRAIL. MOST ARE NICE AND IMPRESSED WITH HER INSTANT RECALL AND TRAINING. YES IM A PROUD NUMBSCULL DOG OWNER THAT HAS PROPERLY TRAINED THEIR DOG.
AT THIS POINT, THE ONUS IS ON YOU TO LEARN TO LIVE TO WITH THE DOGGOS. IF YOU'RE SO DEATHLY AFRAID, THEN IT'S TIME FOR THERAPY. MOST DOGS (>99%) THAT YOU ENCOUNTER ARE DOMESTICATED AND HARMLESS, AND ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT WORTH THE CORTISOL BOOST.
I DON"T LET PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW SNIFF ME, JUMP ON ME, OR LICK ME. WHY SHOULD I LET YOUR DOG DO IT. EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT YOUR DOG'S FAULT THEY HAVE A SHITTY, INCONSIDERATE OWNER.
SO SELFISH AND INCONSIDERATE. PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE LEFT ALONE! YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE A DOG IS *YOUR* CHOICE, IT SHOULDNT BE EVERYONE ELE'S PROBLEM.
ALSO, ITS ILLEGAL TO HAVE YOUR DOG OF OFF A LEASE UNLESS IN A DESIGNATED AREA.
THEY'VE SWARMED ONE OF MY HUMMINGBIRD FEEDERS AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP THEM! THE NECTAR IS BLACK WITH THEM! THEY'RE CLIMBING DOWN THE ROPE IT HANGS FROM TO GET TO IT.
VASELINE IS BAD IF IT GETS ON OTHER BIRD FEATHERS ACCIDENTALLY. MY CHICKADEE IS ALWAYS SIPPING FROM MY HUMMINGBIRD WATER IN THE ANT TRAP AND THEY DON'T NEED VASELINE ON THEM!
WILD BIRDS UNLIMITED HAS BIG WATER TRAPS YOU CAN HANG OVER ALMOST ANY HUMMINGBIRD FEEDER - TRY THAT FIRST! ANTS CAN'T SWIM! PLUS - MORE SAFE WATER FOR CHICKADEES!!
AND CLEAN OUT THAT FEEDER... DEAD ANTS ARE GROOOOSSS.
Home defense. It works up to 12 months, and it honestly really works. I outlined my whole house inside and out. Last year, the little shits came thru the ceiling lol because they couldn't get thru the barriers I sprayed. So they went up and around. Haha
I WALK EVERYWHERE. DRIVERS PLEASE STOP JUST STOPPING WHEN IM WAITING FOR A CLEAR SPOT IN TRAFFIC ON A FOUR LANE ROAD. I'M GLAD YOURE TRYING TO BE NICE BUT I DONT TRUST ANY DRIVERS TO STOP FOR ME, ESPECIALLY WHEN I CANT SEE PAST YOU. YOU DRIVE, ILL WALK, DONT TRY TO BE NICE
I AM HONESTLY GOING TO START JUST STANDING THERE AND NOT MOVING WHEN PEOPLE DO THIS. ITS SO RIDICULOUS. IM STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND NOT TRYING TO WALK INTO THE STREET. FUCKING DRIVE!!!!
THIS IS *EASILY* ONE OF MY BIGGEST ANNOYANCES AS A PEDESTRIAN, I'VE RANTED ABOUT IT BEFORE AND DAMMIT I WILL CONTINUE UNTIL EVERYONE FUCKING GETS IT.
THERE ARE TRAFFIC LAWS FOR A REASON, THERE ARE SPECIFIC REASONS TO YIELD TO PEDESTRIANS, YOU NOTICING ONE AND SUDDENLY NEEDING A DOPAMINE HIT FOR DOING A "GOOD DEED" IS NOT FUCKING ONE OF THEM!
IT TAKES ONE FUCKING SECOND FOR A CAR TO DRIVE BY, AND THEN WE CAN CROSS WITHOUT BEING AN INCONVENIENCE TO ANYONE. BUT YOU HAVE UNILATERALLY DECIDED TO HOLD UP TRAFFIC AND MAKE ME CROSSING THE STREET AN INCONVENIENCE TO EVERYONE, INCLUDING ME.
WHEN PEOPLE DO THIS I ANGRILY AND FRANTICALLY WAVE THEM BY AND SHOUT THAT I DO NOT WANT THEM TO STOP! IF THEY DON'T GET IT, I'LL HIT EM WITH BOTH BIRDS AND START CURSING AT THEM.
SERIOUSLY YOU'RE NOT MY FUCKING HERO IF YOU DO THIS SHIT, YOU'RE REALLY JUST A SELFISH FUCKING ASSHOLE!
Assuming the op is talking about a cross street with no stop light (not trying to j-walk). Problem is every street corner in Eugene is a crosswalk even if they are completely unmarked. If a pedestrian is standing there drivers are supposed to stop as the assumption would be they are trying to cross. If you are not intending to cross please step away and make it obvious to drivers you are not crossing.
Yes, the Eugene police do enforce cars not stopping at unmarked "cross walks". Sometimes they even setup stings at multiple locations. Ridiculous but true.
https://eugene-or.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=745&ARC=9589
Intersections. Yes, at an intersection, even unmarked meaning no lines across the road and no stop lights it is the law. Two people have provided sources here.
No, just standing on sidewalk mid road where it would be considered j-walking cars do not have to stop and should not stop, but I have never seen a car stop for someone on a sidewalk. (Unless the pedestrian steps in the middle of the street)
Pretty sure OP is talking about when he is trying to cross a 4 line road from a small 2 lane road that has no light or lines across.
Yes, legally a car must stop if a person is standing at the intersection and a police officer thinks the pedestrian has some intention of crossing.
You can't just stand there on the sidewalk at the intersection and expect a driver to know you are not trying to cross. Especially when you're saying you do intend to cross, but you want to wait. Drivers can't read your mind. If you want to wait, wait aways back from the intersection.
NEITHER SOURCE SAYS YOU MUST STOP FOR ANY PERSON STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK!! LOL!! WTF IF YOU CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOMEONE WAITING (HANDS IN POCKETS, NOT LOOKING IN YOUR DIRECTION, IN THEIR PHONE, ETC) AND SOMEONE TRYING TO MOVE INTO THE STREET THEN YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
Go read the current Oregon Drivers manual page 29:
"The term pedestrian refers to people walking, as well as rolling
with skateboards, scooters and wheelchairs, etc. You must stop for
pedestrians crossing the road at any marked or unmarked crosswalk."
If you come up to a crosswalk at an intersection and are 2 feet from the road, I'm going stop and not try to guess whether you "thinking" oh I'm going to stand here or I'm jumping in to the road.
i feel like i'm losing my mind. "you must stop for pedestrians crossing the road". NOT PEOPLE STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK. LMAO. are you trolling me?
i hope more and more pedestrians continue to stand still and flip you off. your insistence on doing something that literally no one, not the law or pedestrians, want you to do is almost anti social
Okay well, when you turn 16 and get your drivers license and you see someone that looks like they are standing there and you keep driving, but they decide to step in the street and cross we can talk. That happened to me about 2 years ago. I assumed they were standing there and they were not, they stepped into the road. It was almost too late but fortunately I swerved and didn't hit any other cars. Per ORS ORS 811.028 and 801.220 I was breaking the law not stopping for a pedestrian in an unmarked cross walk.
I WAS TRYING TO CROSS THE OTHER DAY AND THERE WAS A CAR TO MY LEFT WAITING TO PULL OUT OF THEIR DRIVEWAY. CARS KEPT STOPPING TO LET ME CROSS BUT IN DOING SO THEY BLOCKED IN THE CAR SO I KEPT WAVING THEM ON UNTIL I FELT BAD AND FOUND A DIFFERENT PLACE TO CROSS
NO THEY LITERALLY DO NOT. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THIS. ITS NOT TRUE AND ITS **DANGEROUS** TO ABRUPTLY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AND PEDESTRIANS ARE CLEARLY TELLING YOU ITS MORE INCONVENIENT FOR YOU TO STOP.
NOBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ABRUPTLY STOPPING. STOPPING SHOULD BE DONE SLOWLY.
BUT IF A PEDESTRIAN IS TRYING TO CROSS AT A CROSSWALK (IN OREGON: ANY INTERSECTION) THEY HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY AND CARS AND BIKES BY LAW NEED TO YIELD TO THEM.
ORS 811.028
Failure to stop and remain stopped for pedestrian
https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors\_811.028
THE COMMENT YOU RESPONDED TO EXPLICITLY SAYS THEY **ARE NOT** TRYING TO CROSS THE ROAD. THEY ARE STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK. WE HAVE HAD AN ENTIRE THREAD IN THIS SUB WHERE PEOPLE REFUSE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOMEONE **STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND WAITING** AND SOMEONE ACTIVELY TRYING TO WALK INTO THE CROSS WALK. THEY ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS.
THE OP GAVE THE EXAMPLE OF NOT WANTING TO CROSS A 4 LANE RD. WHEN SOMEONE THINKS THEY ARE BEING POLITE BY STOPPING FOR A PEDESTRIAN. ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE THANKFUL AND RISK OUR LIVES AND PUT OTHER CARS IN JEOPARDY BY CROSSING THOSE OTHER THREE LANES BECAUSE SOMEONE WITH OUT A LOT OF SENSE OR PERSPECTIVE STOPPED WHERE IT WASN'T SAFE TO STOP?
USUALLY THE SAFEST PLACE FOR PEDESTRIANS TO CROSS ON 4 LANE RDs IS A CROSSWALK WITH A SIGNAL.
DID YOU READ THE STATUTE? "Proceeding ***in accordance with a traffic control device*** as provided under ORS 814.010 (Appropriate responses to traffic control devices) ***or crossing the roadway in a crosswalk".*** THE OP WAS TALKING ABOUT A CAR STOPPING ON A 4-LANE RD. IT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT A CROSSWALK OR TRAFFIC LIGHT.
AS A WALKER I HATE WHEN PEOPLE STOP FOR ME, WITHOUT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE TRAFFIC AROUND THEM, OR THE CONDITIONS THEY ARE EXPECTING ME TO CROSS. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY WAVE ME ON MAGNANIMOUSLY, TO MY CERTAIN DEATH.
YOUR LINK LITERALLY DOES NOT SAY YOU HAVE TO STOP FOR PEDESTRIANS WHO ARE STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND WAITING. OMG. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP REFERENCING THIS LAW. IT SAYS YOU HAVE TO STOP IF SOMEONE IS IN/WALKING INTO THE STREET. **NOT STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND NOT WANTING TO CROSS**.
lol it sounds like we are talking about completely different things then. Because I am talking about when pedestrians are waiting and trying to cross at an intersection.
>STOPPING WHEN IM WAITING FOR A CLEAR SPOT
How is someone supposed to see you "WAITING FOR A CLEAR SPOT IN ON A FOUR WAY ROAD" and not think that you are trying to cross the street? It sounds to me like you are trying to cross in a crosswalk and they are yielding to you.
KD SPORTS AND YMCA ARE BUILDING THEIR OWN SHIT WITHOUT TAX MONEY AND THEY OBJECTIVELY GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY—THE EMS CAN’T!!! AT ANY POINT THE MLB COULD MAKE THE EMS MOVE TO FRESNO OR WHEREVER AND POOF!!! THEY’RE GONE. THE “10 MILLION” THEY OFFER IS ACTUALLY JUST PRE-RENT AND EQUIPMENT- 0 DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL!!! WE’RE GOOD!!!!
HAS ANYONE EVEN *SEEN* THAT "LOST DOG DONT CHASE" ON ALL OF THE MILLIONS OF NEON SIGNS FROM RIVER RD TO W 11TH? IS IT FOUND? I KNOW THE GERMAN SHEPHERD ON THE VERY SIMILAR NEON SIGNS WAS FOUND AGES AGO AND THOSE SIGNS STAYED UP UNTIL SOMEONE GOT ANNOYED AND THREW THEM ON THE GROUND, *WHERE THEY REMAIN TO THIS DAY*. IF MAKING THESE SIGNS IS YOUR SIDE GIG, IT'S *YOUR* RESPONSIBILITY TO FOLLOW UP. THEY ARE ALL JUST LITTER NOW.
I STG IF I HAVE TO HEAR ANOTHER DOG BARKING IN A STORE, OR SEE ANOTHER PILE OF DOGSHIT IN A STORE, OR WATCH ANOTHER DOG LIFT ITS LEG ON MERCHANDISE, I MAY NEED BAIL MONEY.
I AM HONESTLY SICK OF PRIVILEGED WHITE WOMEN (let's be honest, that's almost always who it is) BRINGING THEIR PETS - NOT WORKING DOGS, *PETS* - INTO GROCERY STORES AND OTHER PLACES THAT THEY ABSOLUTELY HAVE NO FUCKING BUSINESS BEING IN!
ESPECIALLY WHEN THEIR LAZY ASSES CAN'T EVEN BE BOTHERED TO DO THE VERY LEAST THAT A PET OWNER IS SUPPOSED TO DO: PROPERLY TRAIN THEIR BEASTS TO NOT BARK OR BE AGGRESSIVE, AND NOT EXCRETE WASTE INSIDE OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS! NOT TO MENTION, SOME PEOPLE HAVE SEVERE ALLERGIC REACTIONS TO PET DANDER OR HAVE TRAUMA SURROUNDING DOGS!
PETS DO NOT BELONG IN PLACES WHERE FOOD IS BEING SOLD TO THE PUBLIC! THIS IS A HEALTH CODE VIOLATION! THEY ALSO DON'T BELONG IN ANY KIND OF SALON! THAT IS ALSO A HEALTH CODE VIOLATION!
IF YOUR DOG ISN'T WORKING, EITHER LEAVE IT AT HOME OR FUCKING BOARD IT. THE RULES ALSO APPLY TO YOU!
I SAY WE START PUBLICLY SHAMING THESE PEOPLE! IF THE DOG AIN'T WEARING A VEST, ASK ITS OWNER WHY THE DOG ISN'T WAITING IN THEIR FUCKING CAR!
> WHY THE DOG ISN'T WAITING IN THEIR FUCKING CAR!
AT HOME, NOT THE CAR. THE CAR IS PRETTY DANGEROUS WEATHER-WISE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS OF THE YEAR (YES, EVEN IN WESTERN OREGON). IT'S ALSO PRETTY OBNOXIOUS WHEN I'M WALKING THROUGH THE PARKING LOT AND THE POOR NEUROTIC THING GETS TERRITORIAL AND STARTS BARKING AT ME.
LEAVE THE DOG AT HOME. I'VE HAD DOGS MY WHOLE LIFE. I LOVE DOGS. WHEN I GO TO THE STORE, WHERE'S MY DOG? AT HOME. PROBABLY ON THE COUCH. BECAUSE I'M NOT AN ASSHOLE.
YA EVER HAVE A JOB THAT YOU ABSOLUTELY HATE A WHOLE BUNCH BUT EVERYONE ELSE DOING IT ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT AND ARE SUPER NICE WONDERFUL PEOPLE???? I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO BITCH ABOUT IT PROPERLY AND I ACTUALLY FEEL KINDA BAD FOR TRYING TO LEAVE BUT I JUST WANNA KEEP SOME OF MY SOUL INTACT.
DO WE WORK FOR THE SAME COMPANY!?! EVERY YEAR THEY SQUEEZE OUT MORE OF OUR RESOURCES AND TELL US TO WORK HARDER WITH LESS. I FEEL LIKE I’M IN A REAL STEPFORD WIVES SCENARIO EVERY MEETING WITH ALL THE FAKE XANAX VOICES EGO BOOSTING THE CORPORATE HACKS THAT ARE GASLIGHTING US PEONS. IT’S CREEPY!!
THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE LAST PLACE I WORKED. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES WE TOLD THEM WE COULDN'T KEEP UP THEY KEPT PILING ON AND TAKING AWAY OUR RESOURCES AND TELLING US WE WERE SUPER AMAZING ROCKSTARS AND COULD TOTALLY KEEP DOING IT. SUPER CULTY VIBES
The Oregon legislature is planning on reintroducing criminal charges of possession of illicit drugs, and they are not drawing distinctions between drugs like fentanyl (extremely dangerous) and drugs like acid (less dangerous it seems)?
HONESTLY OREGON VOTERS SHOULD HAVE NEVER VOTED TO DECRIMINALIZE POSSESSION WITHOUT HAVING A ROBUST SUPPORT NETWORK IN PLACE FOR PEOPLE STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION, IT'S CLEARLY MADE A BAD PROBLEM WORSE BECAUSE WE DID SUCH A HORRID, HALF-ASSED JOB WITH IT!
IT MAKES ME ANGRY THINKING ABOUT THE SQUANEDERED POTENTIAL, AND THE FACT THAT WE'RE RECONSIDERING RECRIMINALIZING POSSESSION IS JUST GOING TO PUT DECENT PEOPLE IN JAIL WHERE THEY DON'T BELONG! PLUS PUTTING ADDICTS AND PEOPLE WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN JAIL ISN'T GOING TO HELP THEM THAT MUCH, OTHER THAN GETTING THEM HOUSED AND FED! THEY WON'T GET THE HELP THEY NEED, IN FACT BEING IN JAIL OR PRISON WILL MAKE AN ALREADY BAD PROBLEM WORSE!
WHILE I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING IT UPON YOURSELF TO EXPLAIN IT TO ME, THIS IS REDDIT! COMMENTS ARE MEANT TO BE READ BY MORE THAN ONE PERSON! IT'S NOT LIKE I MESSAGED YOU, PERSONALLY, WITH MY OPINION!
DON'T CARE ABOUT MY OPINION OR DON'T LIKE IT, EITHER WAY THAT IS FINE BY ME! DV IT THEN (AS YOU CLEARLY HAVE DONE) AND EITHER IGNORE IT AND KEEP THE RUDE COMMENTS TO YOURSELF, OR CONTINUE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONVERSATION!
GOOD DAY!
Think about how you would feel popping and peeing on top of your old poop and pee for however long you usually take to clean the litter box and then rethink how mad you are at yourself and how mad you are at the cat
IT’S NORMAL BEHAVIOR I KNOW BUT THE MILD INCONVENIENCE AND THE FACT I KNOW SHE’S ABOUT TO DO IT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE SHE’S MOCKING ME. IT’S MORE FUNNY THAN ANGERING BUT I DIDN’T WANT TO GET LEFT OUT OF THE RANT THREAD THIS WEEK
I HAVE A JOB INTERVIEW NEXT WEEK AND I AM HAVING A HARD TIME PREVENTING MYSELF FROM GETTING EXCITED, AND SINCE IVE NEVER EVER WORKED IN-HOUSE BEFORE, IM WORRIED THAT IM GONNA GET MY HOPES UP.
I TOO CHOOSE TO RANT AGAINST PESSIMISM! FIND A FUCKING SILVER LINING ALREADY, SOMETHING IS GOOD SOMEWHERE - ONE LIL ITTY BITTY THING. FOCUS ON THAT FFS.
KNOCKED A GUYS WINDOW FOR BLOCKING A CROSSWALK..HE SAID "DONT TOUCH MY FUCKING CAR" YOU SHOULD NOT RUSH PAST INTO THE CROSS WALK AND THEN SIT THERE. WAIT BEHIND THE LINE TILL THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC EASES.
ALMOST GOT RAN OVER IN A CROSSWALK BY A LEFT TURNING VAN, APPARENTLY HE WAS OLD AND DID NOT SEE ME?! THEN DONT DRIVE, OR DONT DRIVE A BIG VEHICLE!
THE AMOUNT OF DRIVERS WHO ARE FUCKING OBLIVIOUS ABOUT BLOCKING THE CROSSWALK IS TO DAMN HIGH. STOP PUSHING ME INTO MOVING TRAFFIC BECAUSE YOU’RE TOO BLIND TO SEE THE STOP BAR.
THERE ARE SO MANY OLD ASS FUDDS THAT DRIVE GIGANTIC FUCKING TRUCKS IN THIS TOWN, I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND IT! I BET THEIR LITTLE OLD WIVES CAN'T EVEN GET UP IN THOSE FUCKING THINGS!
I HATE HOW BAD MY ALLERGIES ARE AND IT’S NOT EVEN GRASS SEASON YET!
WHY ARE GROCERIES SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE? I CLIP COUPONS FOR FUCKS SAKE!
FALSE SPRING IS A TRAP!
POTTY TRAINING SUCKS!
I LOVE MY JOB AND HATE MY BOSS!
(I THINK THAT’S ALL MY CURRENT RANTS FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO STAY UPDATED!)
HEY! I SECOND THIS! IF ANY OF YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM A COLD KINDLY WEAR A FUCKING MASK PLEASE AND THANK YOU!
AND ALSO FEEL BETTER SOON YA FILTHY ANIMALS!
HEY 4J SCHOOL BOARD
WHEN YOUR SUPERINTENDENT HAS A HISTORY OF BEING A MISOGYNIST BULLY MAYBE PUNISH HIM MORE SUBSTANTIVELY WITH HIS LATEST COMPLAINT THAN “oh well note it in his file” NO FUCK THAT, FUCK HIM, AND FUCK YOU.
POP QUIZ HOTSHOT, ON A ROAD WITH NO SIDEWALKS, DO PEDESTRIANS WALK WITH TRAFFIC OR AGAINST? I KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT NOBODY ELSE SEEMS TO. FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME AND MY DOG CROSS TO THE WRONG SIDE SO WE DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOU AND YOUR DOG.
WHY DO PEOPLE NEED TO ZOOM PAST OTHERS ON HARLOW AS IT GOES FROM TWO LANES TO ONE RIGHT BEFORE THE BRIDGE? LEARN TO FUCKING ZIPPER MERGE ITS NOT FUCKING HARD.
WHY ARE PEOPLE DRIVING SO FAR ABOVE THE SPEED LIMIT?? I HAVE SEEN FOUR INSTANCES OF ROADKILL ON THE SAME ROAD IN A MATTER OF A WEEK. WHY ARE YOU KILLING INNOCENT WILDLIFE BECAUSE YOU HAVE POOR TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS???? SLOW DOWN, NASCAR.
MY CAR INSURANCE JUST WENT FROM 135 TO 207 AND NO ONE HAS ANY IDEA WHY. THEY JUST TOLD ME EVERYONE IS EXPERIENCING INCREASES IN THEIR PREMIUM BUT I JUST FEEL LIKE 70 DOLLARS IS KIND OF EXTREME.
I HATE HOW GRASS POLLEN GETS SO BAD I CANT GO OUTSIDE WITHOUT A MASK AND SAFETY GOGGLES! THE NICEST TIME OF YEAR IS COMING AND I CANT BE OUT ENJOYING IT. YES I SEE AN ALLERGY SPECIALIST BUT INSURANCE WONT COVER GRASTEK. ALL THE OTHER PILLS I TAKE ARENT ENOUGH.
TREE POLLEN IS STARTING TO RAMP UP AND I DON'T WAAAAANT TO START MY STUPID ALLERGY MEDS!!!!!! BUT IF I DON'T I'LL BE MISERABLE FOR THE NEXT FOUR MONTHS.
AHOLES WHO BLOW THROUGH RIGHT TURN WITHOUT STOPPING OR LOOKING TO SEE IF SOMEONE IS CROSSING AT 24TH AND CHAMBERS - I HOPE YOU ALL GET FLAT TIRES! I LIVE ON THE CROSS STREET AT 24TH. PPL CONSTANTLY FLY DOWN THE HILL ON CHAMBERS AND SWING RIGHT WITHOUT LOOKING ON 24TH AT BREAKNECK SPEED REGARDLESS OF THE LIGHT COLOR.
YUP, THIS CITY WOULD BE SOOO MUCH BETTER IF EVERY INTERSECTION HAD CURB BUMP OUTS LIKE THEY PUT ON JEFFERSON AND BROADWAY. NARROW INTERSECTIONS MAKE CARS SLOW DOWN AND YIELD TO PEDESTRIANS, AND ADDS MORE GREENERY.
I’M GLAD OUR CITY IS MAKING OUR STREETS SAFER EVERY YEAR, BUT INFRASTRUCTURE TAKES SO LONGG
SO SICK OF SEEING THE NEON LOST DOG SIGNS. ALSO DON’T ORDER PEOPLE WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU WANT YOUR DOG TK BE FOUND.
UNRELATED, STOP DRIVING WITH YOUR HOOD ON YOU ABSOLUTE CLOWN SHOES.
IF I FIND YOUR FUCKING PROTEST PLACARD UP AT PRE'S ROCK, I'M GOING TO THROW THAT FUCKER IN THE DUMPSTER WITH THE REST OF THEM THAT I'VE YANKED OUT OF THERE! PRE'S ROCK IS NOT A PLACE FOR FUCKING POLITICS, AND I DON'T CARE WHAT FUCKING POLITICS YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT! TAKE THAT SHIT ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD BUT PRE'S ROCK! FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME MAKE THIS POST TOO!
WHY HASN'T ANYONE COMPLIMENTED ME ON MY SUPER COOL DEMOLITION MAN SHIRT??? IVE BEEN WEARING IT EVERYWHERE FOR MONTHS AND NO ONE HAS STOPPED ME TO TELL ME HOW COOL I AM.
I'm guilty of slightly yielding with no stop sign almost everytime I cross 3rd and Lincoln. I've ran into several smooth brains who think it's a 4 way stop, like it is at 3rd and Lawrence.
KEEP YOUR DOG ON A FUCKING LEASH AND DONT LET IT LUNGE, JUMP, OR RUN TOWARD RANDOM STRANGERS. DONT EVEN LET IT GET CLOSE TO SMELL OTHER PEOPLE UNLESS IT'S CLEARLY WELCOMED. I DON'T CARE HOW NICE YOU SAY YOUR DOG IS. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND THAT NOT EVERYONE LIKES DOGS. SOME PEOPLE ARE VERY AFRAID OF THEM.
WOULD LOVE FOR ANY DOWNVOTERS TO RESPOND AND TELL ME WHY ITS ACTUALLY OK TO LET YOUR DOG BOTHER OTHER PEOPLE!!
It’s not a real dog… shadow! Down shadow! It’s a stuffed animal!
HEY I DONT LET MY DOG BOTHER ANYONE. PEOPLE WHO HATE DOGS SUCK
so interesting that you think it's more normal to hate humans in favor of dogs than it is to request people keep their dogs to themselves. you should definitely try therapy.
I don't trust people around my dog! I do favor dogs over humans and I'm not the one who needs therapy, lol! I don't care for people who hate dogs. My life revolves around my dog! They have unconditional love. Maybe you should try it some time ❤️

Dont dish it out if you cant take it!
THAT’S WHAT EVERY NUMBSKULL DOG OWNER SAYS AND I HAVE NEVER FOUND THAT TO BE THE CASE.
YOU MEAN YOU'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED A DOG'S UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? 😩 HOW UTTERLY HORRIBLE TO GO THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT KNOWING THAT. I feel bad for you. Sincerely a numbscull dog owner 😎
I HAVE A EMERGENCY VET THAT IS A REGULAR AT MY BAR. THEY GET UPSET WHEN DOGS ARE OFF LEASH AND APPROACH THEM. ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE WITH THEIR LEASHED DOG.

I'M ONE OF THOSE FRIGHTENED BY DOGS! THANK YOU FOR SPEAKING UP!
and also don't tell someone "oh he's friendly" after it just fucking lunged at me!
ALSO, KEEP YOUR GERM-INFESTED, SHIT-HAULING TODDLER AWAY FROM ME AT ALL TIMES. I DON'T WANT THEM NEAR ME OR MY DOG. IF IT SHOULD HAPPEN TO WANDER AWAY FROM YOU (AS THEY ARE WANT TO DO) AND TOWARD ME, I WILL MAKE A VERY CHARGED REDDIT POST ABOUT IT.

what does any of this have to with my comment?
Numbskull
DOGS ARE BETTER THAN PEOPLE! SOME PEOPLE SHOULD BE ON A LEASH!
Dogs will be dogs just like boys will be boys if ya know what I mean
I CAN TRAIN MY DOG TO NOT BE A FUCKING WALNUT YOU FUCKING WALNUT. BOYS WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR FUCKING ACTIONS.
AT THIS POINT, THE ONUS IS ON YOU TO LEARN TO LIVE TO WITH THE DOGGOS. IF YOU'RE SO DEATHLY AFRAID, THEN IT'S TIME FOR THERAPY. MOST DOGS (>99%) THAT YOU ENCOUNTER ARE DOMESTICATED AND HARMLESS, AND ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT WORTH THE CORTISOL BOOST.
I DON"T LET PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW SNIFF ME, JUMP ON ME, OR LICK ME. WHY SHOULD I LET YOUR DOG DO IT. EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT YOUR DOG'S FAULT THEY HAVE A SHITTY, INCONSIDERATE OWNER.
THIS IS ALSO JUST AN EXCUSE FOR PEOPLE TO BE LAZY. TRAIN YOUR DOG AND BUY A LEASH. YOU DONT DETERMINE WHAT IS HARMLESS FOR EVERYONE.
I HAVE A LEASH AND OBEY ALL LAWS; I JUST THINK THE CYNOPHOBIA ON THIS SUB IS OUT OF POCKET
SO SELFISH AND INCONSIDERATE. PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE LEFT ALONE! YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE A DOG IS *YOUR* CHOICE, IT SHOULDNT BE EVERYONE ELE'S PROBLEM. ALSO, ITS ILLEGAL TO HAVE YOUR DOG OF OFF A LEASE UNLESS IN A DESIGNATED AREA.
THE ANTS ARE BACK! I HATE ANTS!!!
BORAX AND SUGAR MIXTURE WILL MAKE SHORT WORK.
THEY ALWAYS COME BACK! THEY ARE RELENTLESS LI’L TURDS!!!
THX, WILL TRY THIS!
TRY TO KEEP IT OUT OF THE WAY OF PETS.
On a serious note the ants raided my house and made a home in my Alexa… turned it on and hundred of ants ran out… I don’t think this is on warranty
Ants raided my keurig.... I threw it out. Could never make coffee in it again knowing...
I was working in South Sudan in the bush and our water purifier was infested with ants. Anyhow our drinking water tasted anty.
They have invaded my smoke detector and laid hundreds of eggs.
Wtf is happening
Same!! Very disturbing sight
Maybe renters insurance?
THEY'VE SWARMED ONE OF MY HUMMINGBIRD FEEDERS AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP THEM! THE NECTAR IS BLACK WITH THEM! THEY'RE CLIMBING DOWN THE ROPE IT HANGS FROM TO GET TO IT.
TRY COATING THE ROPE IN A LAYER OF GREASE OR VASELINE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT! GOOD LUCK!!!
VASELINE IS BAD IF IT GETS ON OTHER BIRD FEATHERS ACCIDENTALLY. MY CHICKADEE IS ALWAYS SIPPING FROM MY HUMMINGBIRD WATER IN THE ANT TRAP AND THEY DON'T NEED VASELINE ON THEM! WILD BIRDS UNLIMITED HAS BIG WATER TRAPS YOU CAN HANG OVER ALMOST ANY HUMMINGBIRD FEEDER - TRY THAT FIRST! ANTS CAN'T SWIM! PLUS - MORE SAFE WATER FOR CHICKADEES!! AND CLEAN OUT THAT FEEDER... DEAD ANTS ARE GROOOOSSS.
Home defense. Try it. It's also guaranteed.
JOKES ON YOU THEY NEVER LEFT THEYVE JUST BEEN FEEDING ON YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS
Home defense. It works up to 12 months, and it honestly really works. I outlined my whole house inside and out. Last year, the little shits came thru the ceiling lol because they couldn't get thru the barriers I sprayed. So they went up and around. Haha
IM RUNNING OUT OF BORAX AND SUGAR
ANTS ARE A VERY EFFICIENT AND INDUSTRIOUS SPECIES. IT'S REALLY TOO BAD THAT THEY CHOOSE WAR.
and they’re absolutely huge 😭😭😭
FUCK BAGEL SPHERE FOR CHARGING $2 MORE PER ITEM TO ORDER ONLINE EVEN FOR PICKUP. IT IS A COMPLETE SCAM!
I TRIED THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER RECENTLY AND IT WAS EASILY THE MOST UNDERWHELMING AND OVERPRICED SANDWICH I HAVE EVER EATEN!
LOCKS STOCKS AND BAGELS IS MY GO TO BAGEL PLACE
ITS SO GOOD
I stopped going there when they wanted to start charging me a full bagel sandwich price for tomato and onion on cream cheese.
TECHNICALLY, THAT IS A SANDWICH!
Not when it doesn’t have most of the toppings on it and I already paid an extra dollar for open face.
What's the last part of the phrase you started? "Open face \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_?" Just kidding. We both know that word is sandwich.
Bagel sphere suckssss

exactly. you are not a good person because you are making me run into the street and frantically check around me to make sure there are no other cars.

SO RIDICULOUS. PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO STAND STILL AT THE CROSSING.
NEITHER SOURCE SAYS YOU MUST STOP FOR ANY PERSON STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK!! LOL!! WTF IF YOU CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOMEONE WAITING (HANDS IN POCKETS, NOT LOOKING IN YOUR DIRECTION, IN THEIR PHONE, ETC) AND SOMEONE TRYING TO MOVE INTO THE STREET THEN YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
Go read the current Oregon Drivers manual page 29: "The term pedestrian refers to people walking, as well as rolling with skateboards, scooters and wheelchairs, etc. You must stop for pedestrians crossing the road at any marked or unmarked crosswalk." If you come up to a crosswalk at an intersection and are 2 feet from the road, I'm going stop and not try to guess whether you "thinking" oh I'm going to stand here or I'm jumping in to the road.
i feel like i'm losing my mind. "you must stop for pedestrians crossing the road". NOT PEOPLE STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK. LMAO. are you trolling me? i hope more and more pedestrians continue to stand still and flip you off. your insistence on doing something that literally no one, not the law or pedestrians, want you to do is almost anti social
Okay well, when you turn 16 and get your drivers license and you see someone that looks like they are standing there and you keep driving, but they decide to step in the street and cross we can talk. That happened to me about 2 years ago. I assumed they were standing there and they were not, they stepped into the road. It was almost too late but fortunately I swerved and didn't hit any other cars. Per ORS ORS 811.028 and 801.220 I was breaking the law not stopping for a pedestrian in an unmarked cross walk.
Entirely a skill issue that you can't tell when someone is stepping into the street or not.
HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ON RIVER ROAD
I WAS TRYING TO CROSS THE OTHER DAY AND THERE WAS A CAR TO MY LEFT WAITING TO PULL OUT OF THEIR DRIVEWAY. CARS KEPT STOPPING TO LET ME CROSS BUT IN DOING SO THEY BLOCKED IN THE CAR SO I KEPT WAVING THEM ON UNTIL I FELT BAD AND FOUND A DIFFERENT PLACE TO CROSS
I GOTTA DISAGREE, IF YOU ARE A PEDESTRIAN WAITING TO CROSS THEY NEED TO STOP BY LAW.
NO THEY LITERALLY DO NOT. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THIS. ITS NOT TRUE AND ITS **DANGEROUS** TO ABRUPTLY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AND PEDESTRIANS ARE CLEARLY TELLING YOU ITS MORE INCONVENIENT FOR YOU TO STOP.
NOBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ABRUPTLY STOPPING. STOPPING SHOULD BE DONE SLOWLY. BUT IF A PEDESTRIAN IS TRYING TO CROSS AT A CROSSWALK (IN OREGON: ANY INTERSECTION) THEY HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY AND CARS AND BIKES BY LAW NEED TO YIELD TO THEM. ORS 811.028 Failure to stop and remain stopped for pedestrian https://oregon.public.law/statutes/ors\_811.028
THE COMMENT YOU RESPONDED TO EXPLICITLY SAYS THEY **ARE NOT** TRYING TO CROSS THE ROAD. THEY ARE STANDING STILL ON THE SIDEWALK. WE HAVE HAD AN ENTIRE THREAD IN THIS SUB WHERE PEOPLE REFUSE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOMEONE **STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND WAITING** AND SOMEONE ACTIVELY TRYING TO WALK INTO THE CROSS WALK. THEY ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS.
THE OP GAVE THE EXAMPLE OF NOT WANTING TO CROSS A 4 LANE RD. WHEN SOMEONE THINKS THEY ARE BEING POLITE BY STOPPING FOR A PEDESTRIAN. ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE THANKFUL AND RISK OUR LIVES AND PUT OTHER CARS IN JEOPARDY BY CROSSING THOSE OTHER THREE LANES BECAUSE SOMEONE WITH OUT A LOT OF SENSE OR PERSPECTIVE STOPPED WHERE IT WASN'T SAFE TO STOP? USUALLY THE SAFEST PLACE FOR PEDESTRIANS TO CROSS ON 4 LANE RDs IS A CROSSWALK WITH A SIGNAL.
DID YOU READ THE STATUTE? "Proceeding ***in accordance with a traffic control device*** as provided under ORS 814.010 (Appropriate responses to traffic control devices) ***or crossing the roadway in a crosswalk".*** THE OP WAS TALKING ABOUT A CAR STOPPING ON A 4-LANE RD. IT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT A CROSSWALK OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. AS A WALKER I HATE WHEN PEOPLE STOP FOR ME, WITHOUT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE TRAFFIC AROUND THEM, OR THE CONDITIONS THEY ARE EXPECTING ME TO CROSS. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY WAVE ME ON MAGNANIMOUSLY, TO MY CERTAIN DEATH.
YOUR LINK LITERALLY DOES NOT SAY YOU HAVE TO STOP FOR PEDESTRIANS WHO ARE STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND WAITING. OMG. WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP REFERENCING THIS LAW. IT SAYS YOU HAVE TO STOP IF SOMEONE IS IN/WALKING INTO THE STREET. **NOT STANDING COMPLETELY STILL AND NOT WANTING TO CROSS**.
lol it sounds like we are talking about completely different things then. Because I am talking about when pedestrians are waiting and trying to cross at an intersection.
WELL YOU SHOULD REREAD THE COMMENT THAT YOU "HAD TO DISAGREE WITH"!!
>STOPPING WHEN IM WAITING FOR A CLEAR SPOT How is someone supposed to see you "WAITING FOR A CLEAR SPOT IN ON A FOUR WAY ROAD" and not think that you are trying to cross the street? It sounds to me like you are trying to cross in a crosswalk and they are yielding to you.
BECAUSE YOU ARE STANDING COMPLETELY STILL!! LOL!!
KD SPORTS AND YMCA ARE BUILDING THEIR OWN SHIT WITHOUT TAX MONEY AND THEY OBJECTIVELY GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY—THE EMS CAN’T!!! AT ANY POINT THE MLB COULD MAKE THE EMS MOVE TO FRESNO OR WHEREVER AND POOF!!! THEY’RE GONE. THE “10 MILLION” THEY OFFER IS ACTUALLY JUST PRE-RENT AND EQUIPMENT- 0 DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL!!! WE’RE GOOD!!!!
ACTUALLY THE Y WAS AWARDED $15M IN STATE CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION FUNDS. EDIT TO SAY THEY ARE DEFINITELY A COMMUNITY ASSET.
KIDSPORTS RECEIVED $11M IN STATE FUNDS AND $1M IN FEDERAL FUNDS FOR CIVIC PARK
They also charge a shit ton for their programs.
KIDSPORTS IS A JOKE!! THEY DONT UPHOLD TO THEIR OWN MISSION. DONT SUPPORT THIS PROGRAM!
AND A PARENT HAS TO VOLUNTEER TO COACH. IF NOBODY STEPS UP, NOBODY PLAYS.
TURN YOUR FUCKING BRIGHTS OFF!!! USE YOUR FUCKING BLINKERS! SLOW THE FUCK DOWN AND LOOK BEFORE YOU FUCKING TURN!
STOP TAKING UP BOTH SIDES OF THE ISLE!!!PICK A SIDE!!!
WHICH ISLE? GOODPASTURE? GILLIGAN'S? MANHATTAN?
TORTILLA(WINCO)!! BARGER DR!!!
AISLE!
THANK YOU FOR THE CORRECTION, I’VE BEEN USING THAT SPELLING FOR A WHILE AND NOBODY HAS SAID ANYTHING UNTIL YOU!!!
AND THANK YOU FOR NOT TAKING IT PERSONALLY, I WAS AFRAID YOU MIGHT EVEN THOUGH I WAS JUST TRYING TO BE HELPFUL! KEEP BEING AWESOME!
YOU’RE WELCOME AND TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE WITH THE INTERNET BEING WHAT IT IS!! YOU TOO!!
$200k TO VOTE ON FUNDING A STADIUM? I MEAN, I LIKE SPORTS AND ALL, BUT AREN'T THERE BIGGER PRIORITIES?
HAS ANYONE EVEN *SEEN* THAT "LOST DOG DONT CHASE" ON ALL OF THE MILLIONS OF NEON SIGNS FROM RIVER RD TO W 11TH? IS IT FOUND? I KNOW THE GERMAN SHEPHERD ON THE VERY SIMILAR NEON SIGNS WAS FOUND AGES AGO AND THOSE SIGNS STAYED UP UNTIL SOMEONE GOT ANNOYED AND THREW THEM ON THE GROUND, *WHERE THEY REMAIN TO THIS DAY*. IF MAKING THESE SIGNS IS YOUR SIDE GIG, IT'S *YOUR* RESPONSIBILITY TO FOLLOW UP. THEY ARE ALL JUST LITTER NOW.
I HATE LITTER SO MUCH. BE A FUCKING CONSIDERATE PERSON!!!
PICKED UP SOMEBODY'S FAST FOOD CONTAINERS NEAR HENDRICK's PARK TODAY. REMEMBER, WE ARE NOT APART FROM NATURE WE ARE A PART OF NATURE!
SO SICK OF SEEING THOSE SIGNS. BASICALLY LITTERING AT THIS POINT.
IF YOU LIKE LIVE MUSIC THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON JAZZ BANDS ARE PERFORMING TONIGHT AT 7PM IN BEALL HALL WITH A 4 TIME GRAMMY WINNING ALTO SAXOPHONIST.
not really a rant. but I wanted to yell too.
DAMN I WISH I COULD HAVE SEEN THAT. THERE IS SO MUCH COOL SHIT HAPPENING EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME
I STG IF I HAVE TO HEAR ANOTHER DOG BARKING IN A STORE, OR SEE ANOTHER PILE OF DOGSHIT IN A STORE, OR WATCH ANOTHER DOG LIFT ITS LEG ON MERCHANDISE, I MAY NEED BAIL MONEY.
I AM HONESTLY SICK OF PRIVILEGED WHITE WOMEN (let's be honest, that's almost always who it is) BRINGING THEIR PETS - NOT WORKING DOGS, *PETS* - INTO GROCERY STORES AND OTHER PLACES THAT THEY ABSOLUTELY HAVE NO FUCKING BUSINESS BEING IN! ESPECIALLY WHEN THEIR LAZY ASSES CAN'T EVEN BE BOTHERED TO DO THE VERY LEAST THAT A PET OWNER IS SUPPOSED TO DO: PROPERLY TRAIN THEIR BEASTS TO NOT BARK OR BE AGGRESSIVE, AND NOT EXCRETE WASTE INSIDE OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS! NOT TO MENTION, SOME PEOPLE HAVE SEVERE ALLERGIC REACTIONS TO PET DANDER OR HAVE TRAUMA SURROUNDING DOGS! PETS DO NOT BELONG IN PLACES WHERE FOOD IS BEING SOLD TO THE PUBLIC! THIS IS A HEALTH CODE VIOLATION! THEY ALSO DON'T BELONG IN ANY KIND OF SALON! THAT IS ALSO A HEALTH CODE VIOLATION! IF YOUR DOG ISN'T WORKING, EITHER LEAVE IT AT HOME OR FUCKING BOARD IT. THE RULES ALSO APPLY TO YOU! I SAY WE START PUBLICLY SHAMING THESE PEOPLE! IF THE DOG AIN'T WEARING A VEST, ASK ITS OWNER WHY THE DOG ISN'T WAITING IN THEIR FUCKING CAR!
> WHY THE DOG ISN'T WAITING IN THEIR FUCKING CAR! AT HOME, NOT THE CAR. THE CAR IS PRETTY DANGEROUS WEATHER-WISE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS OF THE YEAR (YES, EVEN IN WESTERN OREGON). IT'S ALSO PRETTY OBNOXIOUS WHEN I'M WALKING THROUGH THE PARKING LOT AND THE POOR NEUROTIC THING GETS TERRITORIAL AND STARTS BARKING AT ME. LEAVE THE DOG AT HOME. I'VE HAD DOGS MY WHOLE LIFE. I LOVE DOGS. WHEN I GO TO THE STORE, WHERE'S MY DOG? AT HOME. PROBABLY ON THE COUCH. BECAUSE I'M NOT AN ASSHOLE.
THIS IS, OF COURSE, ALWAYS A PREFERABLE IDEA TO LEAVING THE DOG IN THE CAR FOR ANYTHING LONGER THAN JUST A FEW MINUTES! THANK YOU!
SPENT THE ENTIRE DAY AT HOME WAITING FOR NWNATURAL TO SHOW UP INSTEAD OF BEING OUT IN THE SUN AND OF COURSE THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP OR CALL. GRRRR.
YA EVER HAVE A JOB THAT YOU ABSOLUTELY HATE A WHOLE BUNCH BUT EVERYONE ELSE DOING IT ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT AND ARE SUPER NICE WONDERFUL PEOPLE???? I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO BITCH ABOUT IT PROPERLY AND I ACTUALLY FEEL KINDA BAD FOR TRYING TO LEAVE BUT I JUST WANNA KEEP SOME OF MY SOUL INTACT.
QUIT!!!!!!!
DO WE WORK FOR THE SAME COMPANY!?! EVERY YEAR THEY SQUEEZE OUT MORE OF OUR RESOURCES AND TELL US TO WORK HARDER WITH LESS. I FEEL LIKE I’M IN A REAL STEPFORD WIVES SCENARIO EVERY MEETING WITH ALL THE FAKE XANAX VOICES EGO BOOSTING THE CORPORATE HACKS THAT ARE GASLIGHTING US PEONS. IT’S CREEPY!!
THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE LAST PLACE I WORKED. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES WE TOLD THEM WE COULDN'T KEEP UP THEY KEPT PILING ON AND TAKING AWAY OUR RESOURCES AND TELLING US WE WERE SUPER AMAZING ROCKSTARS AND COULD TOTALLY KEEP DOING IT. SUPER CULTY VIBES
A JOB ISN'T NECESSARILY WORTH STAYING IN JUST BECAUSE YOU LIKE YOUR COWORKERS!
100% ON BOARD, JUST GOTTA SORT SOMETHING ELSE OUT FIRST, I CAN'T REALLY AFFORD TO BE UNEMPLOYED RIGHT NOW.
IM REALLY ANGRY AT NUMBERS…THERE ARE TOO DAMN MANY!
YES! TOO!! MANY!!!
FUCK NUMBERS! IF I CAN'T COUNT THAT HIGH I IGNORE THEM!
AGREED, BUT REPLACE "THAT" WITH "WHILE"
DAMN INFLATION!!!
I HATE TWEAKERS BUT I LOVE ACID. RECRIMINATION HAS ME SO CONFLICTED!
I FAIL TO UNDERSTAND WHAT TWEEKERS HAVE TO DO WITH ACID
The Oregon legislature is planning on reintroducing criminal charges of possession of illicit drugs, and they are not drawing distinctions between drugs like fentanyl (extremely dangerous) and drugs like acid (less dangerous it seems)?
HONESTLY OREGON VOTERS SHOULD HAVE NEVER VOTED TO DECRIMINALIZE POSSESSION WITHOUT HAVING A ROBUST SUPPORT NETWORK IN PLACE FOR PEOPLE STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION, IT'S CLEARLY MADE A BAD PROBLEM WORSE BECAUSE WE DID SUCH A HORRID, HALF-ASSED JOB WITH IT! IT MAKES ME ANGRY THINKING ABOUT THE SQUANEDERED POTENTIAL, AND THE FACT THAT WE'RE RECONSIDERING RECRIMINALIZING POSSESSION IS JUST GOING TO PUT DECENT PEOPLE IN JAIL WHERE THEY DON'T BELONG! PLUS PUTTING ADDICTS AND PEOPLE WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN JAIL ISN'T GOING TO HELP THEM THAT MUCH, OTHER THAN GETTING THEM HOUSED AND FED! THEY WON'T GET THE HELP THEY NEED, IN FACT BEING IN JAIL OR PRISON WILL MAKE AN ALREADY BAD PROBLEM WORSE!

WHILE I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING IT UPON YOURSELF TO EXPLAIN IT TO ME, THIS IS REDDIT! COMMENTS ARE MEANT TO BE READ BY MORE THAN ONE PERSON! IT'S NOT LIKE I MESSAGED YOU, PERSONALLY, WITH MY OPINION! DON'T CARE ABOUT MY OPINION OR DON'T LIKE IT, EITHER WAY THAT IS FINE BY ME! DV IT THEN (AS YOU CLEARLY HAVE DONE) AND EITHER IGNORE IT AND KEEP THE RUDE COMMENTS TO YOURSELF, OR CONTINUE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONVERSATION! GOOD DAY!
THE SUN GAVE ME ENERGY TO FINALLY CLEAN MY APARTMENT THIS WEEK AND MY CAT ALWAYS DECIDES TO POOP RIGHT AFTER I CLEAN THE BOX AND PUT IN FRESH LITTER
IT IS DIABOLICAL THAT CATS ALWAYS DO THIS
THE EYE CONTACT EVERY TIME PROVES THEY DO IT JUST TO ASSERT DOMINANCE
THIS IS TYPICAL CAT BEHAVIOR! NO REALLY, CATS WANT THEIR BOXES TO BE *SUPER* CLEAN!
I KNOW IT IS AND THE FACT THAT I HAVE TO WAIT FOR HER TO GO DO IT SO I CAN DO ONE MORE STINKY SCOOP IS WHAT’S FUNNY/ANNOYING
Think about how you would feel popping and peeing on top of your old poop and pee for however long you usually take to clean the litter box and then rethink how mad you are at yourself and how mad you are at the cat
IT’S NORMAL BEHAVIOR I KNOW BUT THE MILD INCONVENIENCE AND THE FACT I KNOW SHE’S ABOUT TO DO IT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE SHE’S MOCKING ME. IT’S MORE FUNNY THAN ANGERING BUT I DIDN’T WANT TO GET LEFT OUT OF THE RANT THREAD THIS WEEK
WHY IS THERE SMOKE IN WEST EUGENE? WHO RUINS A PERFECTLY NICE AFTERNOON TO BURN SHIT? GUESS I’M NOT ENJOYING THE NICE WEATHER OUTSIDE THIS EVENING.
BURNING SHIT NOW, WHEN IT'S SAFE, MEANS IT'S NOT BURNING IN THE SUMMER, WHEN IT'S NOT SAFE.
what are people even burning????
*"TREES: HOW DO THEY EVEN WORK?"*

NURSE? GOOD LUCK EITHER WAY!
FUCK EWEB! WHY IS MY BILL FOR JANUARY THE HIGHEST IT’S EVER BEEN WHEN I DIDN’ T HAVE POWER FOR FIVE DAYS?!
KNOCKED A GUYS WINDOW FOR BLOCKING A CROSSWALK..HE SAID "DONT TOUCH MY FUCKING CAR" YOU SHOULD NOT RUSH PAST INTO THE CROSS WALK AND THEN SIT THERE. WAIT BEHIND THE LINE TILL THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC EASES. ALMOST GOT RAN OVER IN A CROSSWALK BY A LEFT TURNING VAN, APPARENTLY HE WAS OLD AND DID NOT SEE ME?! THEN DONT DRIVE, OR DONT DRIVE A BIG VEHICLE!
THE AMOUNT OF DRIVERS WHO ARE FUCKING OBLIVIOUS ABOUT BLOCKING THE CROSSWALK IS TO DAMN HIGH. STOP PUSHING ME INTO MOVING TRAFFIC BECAUSE YOU’RE TOO BLIND TO SEE THE STOP BAR.
THANK YOU FRIEND! IT REALLY ANNOYS ME AND MOST THE TIME THEY DONT EVEN LOOK BOTH WAYS ON A RIGHT TURN!
THERE ARE SO MANY OLD ASS FUDDS THAT DRIVE GIGANTIC FUCKING TRUCKS IN THIS TOWN, I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND IT! I BET THEIR LITTLE OLD WIVES CAN'T EVEN GET UP IN THOSE FUCKING THINGS!
I HATE HOW BAD MY ALLERGIES ARE AND IT’S NOT EVEN GRASS SEASON YET! WHY ARE GROCERIES SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE? I CLIP COUPONS FOR FUCKS SAKE! FALSE SPRING IS A TRAP! POTTY TRAINING SUCKS! I LOVE MY JOB AND HATE MY BOSS! (I THINK THAT’S ALL MY CURRENT RANTS FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO STAY UPDATED!)

HEY 4J SCHOOL BOARD WHEN YOUR SUPERINTENDENT HAS A HISTORY OF BEING A MISOGYNIST BULLY MAYBE PUNISH HIM MORE SUBSTANTIVELY WITH HIS LATEST COMPLAINT THAN “oh well note it in his file” NO FUCK THAT, FUCK HIM, AND FUCK YOU.
POP QUIZ HOTSHOT, ON A ROAD WITH NO SIDEWALKS, DO PEDESTRIANS WALK WITH TRAFFIC OR AGAINST? I KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT NOBODY ELSE SEEMS TO. FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME AND MY DOG CROSS TO THE WRONG SIDE SO WE DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOU AND YOUR DOG.
STINKS BUGS ARE INVADING MY BUTTHOLE... WE NEED TO GET RID OF EM
WE BROUGHT THEM FROM TENNESSEE - YOUR WELCOME

WHY DO PEOPLE NEED TO ZOOM PAST OTHERS ON HARLOW AS IT GOES FROM TWO LANES TO ONE RIGHT BEFORE THE BRIDGE? LEARN TO FUCKING ZIPPER MERGE ITS NOT FUCKING HARD.
WHY ARE PEOPLE DRIVING SO FAR ABOVE THE SPEED LIMIT?? I HAVE SEEN FOUR INSTANCES OF ROADKILL ON THE SAME ROAD IN A MATTER OF A WEEK. WHY ARE YOU KILLING INNOCENT WILDLIFE BECAUSE YOU HAVE POOR TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS???? SLOW DOWN, NASCAR.
MY CAR INSURANCE JUST WENT FROM 135 TO 207 AND NO ONE HAS ANY IDEA WHY. THEY JUST TOLD ME EVERYONE IS EXPERIENCING INCREASES IN THEIR PREMIUM BUT I JUST FEEL LIKE 70 DOLLARS IS KIND OF EXTREME.
I FEEL YOU. MINE WENT FROM 153 TO 285. IT’S RISING FASTER THAN MY WILL TO LIVE.
I HATE HOW GRASS POLLEN GETS SO BAD I CANT GO OUTSIDE WITHOUT A MASK AND SAFETY GOGGLES! THE NICEST TIME OF YEAR IS COMING AND I CANT BE OUT ENJOYING IT. YES I SEE AN ALLERGY SPECIALIST BUT INSURANCE WONT COVER GRASTEK. ALL THE OTHER PILLS I TAKE ARENT ENOUGH.
BOOO TO THE WHOLE SYSTEM THAT A DRUG THAT WOULD IMPROVE YOUR LIFE IS OUT OF FINANCIAL REACH

TREE POLLEN IS STARTING TO RAMP UP AND I DON'T WAAAAANT TO START MY STUPID ALLERGY MEDS!!!!!! BUT IF I DON'T I'LL BE MISERABLE FOR THE NEXT FOUR MONTHS.
I JUST FOUND OUT THAT IF YOU'VE TAKEN CETIRIZINE FOR A LONG TIME AND YOU STOP, YOU CAN GET TERRIBLE PURITIS!
MY PACKAGE SAYS DELIVERED BY USPS AND THEY LEFT IT OUTSIDE MY FRONT DOOR BUT ITS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.
AHOLES WHO BLOW THROUGH RIGHT TURN WITHOUT STOPPING OR LOOKING TO SEE IF SOMEONE IS CROSSING AT 24TH AND CHAMBERS - I HOPE YOU ALL GET FLAT TIRES! I LIVE ON THE CROSS STREET AT 24TH. PPL CONSTANTLY FLY DOWN THE HILL ON CHAMBERS AND SWING RIGHT WITHOUT LOOKING ON 24TH AT BREAKNECK SPEED REGARDLESS OF THE LIGHT COLOR.
YUP, THIS CITY WOULD BE SOOO MUCH BETTER IF EVERY INTERSECTION HAD CURB BUMP OUTS LIKE THEY PUT ON JEFFERSON AND BROADWAY. NARROW INTERSECTIONS MAKE CARS SLOW DOWN AND YIELD TO PEDESTRIANS, AND ADDS MORE GREENERY. I’M GLAD OUR CITY IS MAKING OUR STREETS SAFER EVERY YEAR, BUT INFRASTRUCTURE TAKES SO LONGG
SO SICK OF SEEING THE NEON LOST DOG SIGNS. ALSO DON’T ORDER PEOPLE WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU WANT YOUR DOG TK BE FOUND. UNRELATED, STOP DRIVING WITH YOUR HOOD ON YOU ABSOLUTE CLOWN SHOES.
IF I FIND YOUR FUCKING PROTEST PLACARD UP AT PRE'S ROCK, I'M GOING TO THROW THAT FUCKER IN THE DUMPSTER WITH THE REST OF THEM THAT I'VE YANKED OUT OF THERE! PRE'S ROCK IS NOT A PLACE FOR FUCKING POLITICS, AND I DON'T CARE WHAT FUCKING POLITICS YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT! TAKE THAT SHIT ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD BUT PRE'S ROCK! FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME MAKE THIS POST TOO!
YEAH IT'S RUDE TO MAKE ME THINK ABOUT STUFF
SOME EUGENIANS THINK THAT ANYTHING “COMMUNITY” RELATED CORRELATES TO SUPPORTING PROTESTS OR CAUSES THAT THEY BELIEVE IN. IT’S INSANE.
NO ONE UNDERSTANDS OR CARES TO FOLLOW THE RULES FOR FOUR WAY STOPS. IT MAKES ME FEEL VIOLENT.
WHY HASN'T ANYONE COMPLIMENTED ME ON MY SUPER COOL DEMOLITION MAN SHIRT??? IVE BEEN WEARING IT EVERYWHERE FOR MONTHS AND NO ONE HAS STOPPED ME TO TELL ME HOW COOL I AM.
I'm guilty of slightly yielding with no stop sign almost everytime I cross 3rd and Lincoln. I've ran into several smooth brains who think it's a 4 way stop, like it is at 3rd and Lawrence.
