Glad to see d do his part to denigrate black people. How original.

How am I denigrating black people?  Not all the #microaggression pics I've posted over the last year and a half have been of black folks.

Btw am I allowed to say denigrate?

Cars can otherwise stop at arbitrary points in the road?

I think he means park.

So they can park as long as there are pedestrians?

OKay, it's a little cryptic.

Cars can't stop at the zig zag markings unless they are waiting for pedestrians to cross the zebra markings.

Cars can otherwise stop at arbitrary points in the road?

Err, of course not.  But no, I don't mean just park.  We can't stop at the zig zag lanes without a very good reason, otherwise it is a separate, bookable traffic offence.  Even if the driver is in the car.  If I stop at an unmarked part of the road, a police officer may just give me a wave to tell me to get lost.  But if he sees me stopping at the zig zag lane, I get a ticket and points deducted from my record. 

Think of it as a "no stopping zone".

Happy Black History Month!

Yesterday I was at the grocery store a bit after 11 PM. After about 10 PM most of the staff leaves and it is self check out only (with one staff member to help).

So the staff member is helping someone check out, with another also needing help--there was something of a rush at the time--a bunch of people in the line. But a middle aged lady in the store (not checking out) comes near the check out area and keeps saying, "Excuse me. Excuse me. I need some help over here."

The staff member ignores her for a minute, then says, "I'll be with you once I help these other people, what is it that you need help with?"

The lady responds, "I just need help."

The staff member says, "I can't help you if you aren't going to be more specific than that."

The lady says, "This is so embarrassing. I need to buy condoms and they are locked up. This is the first time in my life I have ever bought condoms. It really shouldn't have to be this embarrassing."

[CountDeMoney]

That's some silly ass bullshit right there.

[PDH]

If you don't lock up/shame those who buy the condoms then people might feel more free to have safe sex.
