Talking in a non-dickish way about the AC Transit fight

I knew a girl who drove between work and home for all of about 8 blocks, completely within the Mission. Madness.

I take the bus/BART to and from work, but when it comes to getting the toddler around to school/shopping etc., she's just not old enough to ride the bus everywhere.

imo sf needs congestion zone pricing and might be a place where it could actually happen politically

"I knew a girl who drove between work and home for all of about 8 blocks, completely within the Mission. Madness."

That's pathetic.

Sorry that was pretty dickish.

felt worse for older dude after watching both clips, anyway.

this post got me thinkin, "who do ~i~ feel worse for?" so i devised this little rubric in order to properly analyze the match-up and determine which of the two deserves my pity the most, based on the subjective awarding of "pity points"

AGE (10 points): 67 years old vs. what, 26? obviously non-motherfucker has an advantage here given that he is in the prime of his life, yet motherfucker possesses invaluable wisdom from a having lived a "seasoned" life. still, closer to natural death = always feel a little worse 4 u. NMF 3, MF 7

RACE (10 points): non-motherfucker is black and therefore faces challenges every day in Our American Society. however, motherfucker is white which means he also faces the challenge of being considered to be racist, he probably also suffers from "white guilt" which can be really emotionally draining, from what i've heard. this one's split evenly imo, 5 points each.

INTELLIGENCE (10 points): non-motherfucker sure was stupid to follow motherfucker up to the front of the bus like that, but then again motherfucker was stupid to bother engaging him in the stupid conversation right? NMF 8, MF 2 (remember, these points represent how much pity i feel for them based on their lack of intelligence, not their actual intellligence level)

FASHION SENSE (5 points): MF has a kewl beard and an awesome shirt featuring fun cussing. then again, plaid never really goes out of style does it. NMF 4, MF 1.

REPUTATION (5 points): ppl on the internet know about "Vietnam Tom" and "Epic Beard Man," which is cool. non-motherfucker is a virtual nobody and i feel bad about that. 5 points NMF, 0 points MF.

FIGHT SKILLS (10 points): clearly motherfucker has "thrown down" in a couple "scraps," evidence in favor of non-motherfucker's asswhoop aptitude not so clear. this is a clean sweep for poor NMF.

WHO GOT REPEATEDLY PUNCHED IN THE FACE HARD ENOUGH TO HAVE HIS BLOOD SPLATTERED EVERYWHERE (50 points): L.O.L., right?

so yeah i disagree, i feel 85 pities for non-motherfucker and 15 for motherfucker.

i have issues with your marking system tbh

I have 20 pities for anyone w/ that marking system, and also 3 pities for darraghmac because I sympathize with his view

"however, motherfucker is white which means he also faces the challenge of being considered to be racist"

Such a difficult to challenge to overcome.

I find it kind of odd that the white dude's personal info has been splashed all over the place but the black dude appears to remain anonymous...?

also kind of lolling at how no one can tell how old the black dude is

"I knew a girl who drove between work and home for all of about 8 blocks, completely within the Mission. Madness."

That's pathetic.

Actually, I think it's not only pathetic but downright bad. An eight block walk in the Mission is perfectly feasible from the POV of safety, time, and general well-being. Putting yourself through the ordeal of parking on both ends is foolish and conceivably someone from out of town needs the parking more than you do. I don't think saying that is particularly dickish.

iiiijjjj didn't have any pity for poor grant singer the other day

look you can weight the categories any way you like, remove/replace them at your will, whatever you want to do. the important thing is that you try and come to a rational, logical conclusion about which of the two men you feel most sorry for.

also kind of lolling at how no one can tell how old the black dude is

not my fault, motherfucker was considerate enough to scream about how old he was on camera, can't say the same for black dude of indeterminable age

i feel no pity for Grant Singer, that portugese girl was like 13 years old ffs

apparently grant singer is as real as the black guy who got his face punched in

totally agree with you guys re: 8-block drive. it really blew my mind when she told me about that.

REPUTATION (5 points): ppl on the internet know about "Vietnam Tom" and "Epic Beard Man," which is cool. non-motherfucker is a virtual nobody and i feel bad about that. 5 points NMF, 0 points MF.

I wonder if Vietnam Tom will have the internet celebrity staying power as Bubb Rubb. Also who wins in a fight between Vietnam Tom and Bubb Rubb?

i still think about bubb rubb anytime someone says "early in the morning"

bubb rubb was pre youtube anyway. he would have been a lot more famous in the post-youtube era.

That already

whether or not we agree on things whiney, your voicing your pleasure at me being banned undeservedly is not cool
--sir ilx-a-lot (cutty)

Ah, cutts. I wasn't cheering cuz u got banned, I was just gloating because I was determined "right" on a clusterfuck thread for once.

^^ http://www.freedomsledder.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/backpedal.gif

trying to lift your permaban but it only lets me ban you more

Well I honestly don't give a f if I can still post on NB, I just want you to know that I wasn't cheering your ban, think you are a valuable poster, harbor no ill will, and enjoyed our spirited argument

and in that spirit, baby i want u back

That already

Love you, cutty, no banana

One of the downsides of being a sub-board mod is that there's no way to revoke bans (IIRC). I revoked this one.

iiijjj, doesnt the black dude explicitly say he's 50? def feel way worse for him, the one that got his face beat in, for sure

am i a racist for having "ooooohh he leaking" stuck in my head all day

if whiney could let me know that would be nice

there is a funny meme jpeg regarding the he leaking but i ain't posting it, coz posted it on my facebook

lol was just gonna post that

wtf I wonder if any of that stuff about the black guy is true

good publicity for stacy adams shoes

"i did 14 years for selling drugs and pimping"

!!!

i'm a senior so i'm entitled to carry a weapon

truly an epic bread man

i don't think epic beard man has access to that type of info about the black guy, but on the other hand maybe he has a computer in his mind

maybe the cops who gave him rides or whatever told him about the other dude's record?

the guy is completely bonkers and violent from his vietnam experience, felt kinda sad when he broke down about his mom

this whole story is like a sad cliff's note version of how america's military-industrial complex and years of institutionalized racism produce incredibly fucked up people; and the elite get to laugh at them all day from a safe distance

oh, americapaws

when you say the elite do you mean bloggers

youtube comments people

The e-l33t

time to look at those invisible backpacks, d00ds

do you mean that as a metaphor for life a la "up in the air"

my homeboys's fb update from two minutes ago.

..just rode the bus home with Epic Beard Man. He is officially, a ghetto celebrity. A full bus in which me and Epic Beard Man were the only white folks - cheered loudly and long for the man of the hour. He took many pictures with folks and gave out candy bars. I cannot maek this up.

xxx.Are you serious?

response: Yes. It was kind of beautiful. The working class loves their new Santa Claus. I'll put up the photographic proof in a sec.

this started in tears, it's continuing in tears, it'll end in tears

this though, this is the real next level insanity to me
