If you advocate for public transport, then you can provide these people with an adequate alternative to driving.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

More interested in bike paths but trams and trains are cool too

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why not both? Trams and bike paths can work really well together.

Yeah that's never happening in America if big auto has anything to do with it

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

Sure, but outside of meme countries we can actually do this kinda thing.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think we're all shocked you're not already retired, Mickey. ;)

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Always interesting on social media sites trying to guess if the poster is male/female and how old

[–] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What's the Lemmy equivalent of driving around real slow?

Maybe posting 90s memes?

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

I would say boomer memes.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You have no more right to use public roads than anyone else.

[–] Azteh@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Correct, but if you can do shopping at any time, you should aspire to do it when there are as few people as possible. That goes for everyone and it also works for most non group activities, such as driving

[–] Nolvamia@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

One of my favourite things about being retired is the ability to go to the shops in the middle of the day, when it's quiet. No crowds. Parking. No rush. Bliss!

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I work mostly evenings and weekends and being able to run errands when it's not busy and do chores when flatmates aren't around makes up for it.

Having been a 2nd and 3rd shifter most of my adult life, I miss going shopping in the middle of the night when hardly anyone was there.

“I’ve done my shopping at 11 am on saturdays for the last 40 years and even though the shops are packed and the selection is poor, I’m not going to consider moving to 10 on Monday instead”

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's tractors and some guy regularly riding a horse and cart round my way.

[–] EditsHisComments@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Lmao sounds like where I grew up in Mississippi. Farmers everywhere, but quite a few Mennonites and Amish too

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Retire? Fucking hilarious!

[–] psoul@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Get rid of your car. Problem solved.

I don't have any problem with someone driving under the speed limit as long its within the legal amount. My problem is buttplugs. Buttplugs are creatures who crawl up someones ass and refuse to pass. They prevent the people behind them from legally passing and just sit there for mile after mile.

A mutation of the buttplug is the plugipede. Where you have mulitple buttplugs all up each others ass and content to follow one another at less than two car lengths apart.

I never blame the guy going five under at the front.

butt plugs with LED headlights, no less

nothing makes a tired annoyed version of me happier before dawn than going extra slow just to piss off the asshole riding my ass with LED headlights lighting up my whole cabin

*to clarify, the situation I am talking about is where I'll be doing my usual up-to-20% over the speed limit minding my own business on my way to wherever in the morning, and some jackass with LED headlights at the same height as my face comes up behind me and rides my ass for several kilometers despite multiple passing opportunities. when that shit happens, my dreary morning just got interesting and I have something to keep me entertained

I have never commuted by car, but I plan to get a car when I retire so I can drive around in the mornings.

[–] adarza@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

a bunch of old geezers cruising the local 'strip' from 7-9am just like we used to back in high school at night on the weekends.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 7 points 2 months ago

And also ignore pedestrians, even though they just stared in my soul while waiting them to stop (but they just slowed down and didn't stopped)

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I just retired, and my wife still complains that I drive too fast. I'm joining a gym next week and getting back into writing and fermenting, and so won't have much time to annoy Frank Freeway during his commute from hell.

It's the same guy!

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Like anyone gets to drive at speed during commuter time.

Automobiles are a toy. If you're an adult with actual responsibilities and you need to be somewhere on time, take the train.
