While I am sympathetic, I wonder why the homeless aren't volunteering since it's assistance for them.

Attachment 51235

I live in the Jacksonville, FL area....specifically Orange Park. There's no way you can drive anywhere here without getting angry. It's a mix between never ending perpetual construction, roadways not big enough to support the increasing population, people seem to drive all day and do nothing else causing congestion, and the biggest problem...they're all stupid.

I actually saw a cop in front of me this morning in the left lane on I295 North (west beltway) pull over a left lane warrior for doing 60, which is below the speed limit, and clogging traffic. They pulled off and it picked up to 75 immediately. Dumbass was keeping up with truckers in the right lane so there was no way to pass. Using the horn or flashing your lights like in Europe meant nothing to that jackass. I hope his engine seizes up.

It’s the “community kitchen”. The lady in the pic is elderly. Maybe she’s not able to volunteer. Whether she’s homeless I don’t know, but she certainly appears grateful. Not gonna judge.

BTDT and concur. Try driving in the metro DC area, or better yet downtown during am or pm rush hour.



Oh and because of upcoming “national security events”, there will be road closures and associated rerouting. Glad I’m teleworking even though my office is on the other side of the river and use mass trans.

Would never happen in Houston...the uninsured would run him into the I-10 walls.

Would you want some homeless dude/dudette prepping meals for a community kitchen that feeds more than just the homeless? Not I.

My wife says I have road rage... I say I hate idot drivers. Plus I bought the car with the horn so I'll damn well use it.

Yes.
Just because homeless doesn't mean incompetent.

If you cannot control it why be angry? It only hurts you, and runs your blood pressure up.

Ha traffic wars. Something about staying home the last 10 months I do not miss for sure. I would rather things get back to normal though so I can deal with it.

Remember:

Well I suppose if they are competent and you hose them down and delouse them first jailbird style it’d be ok.

Blood pressure is already up anyway and it runs in the family. Edarbyclor and Norvask take care of that. Damn near had a stroke at the dentists office back in October of 2019 and they caught it because they had to take BP before administering any kind of anesthetic.

My Cardio Doc is a good friend of the family and he cleared his schedule for me to get to his office immediately.

C'mon man!...you're the good guy.
Leave me, Andy, and DJ to being the judgmental pricks...OK?


Men, women, and children are homeless all across this great nation for one reason or another...could be they just recently lost everything due to lack of revenue because of the health crisis (literal, mental, or MSM manufactured).

Many of those are more than happy to help by paying it forward.
