Just sharing to expose this ****ing ******* - here is the description from the video...

Spoiler

People seem to do this all the time. Not just handicap spots but those expecting mother spots too. Unless girls abuse that rule or something. Being like "you don't know if I'm pregnant or not". Cause obviously you won't be able to tell if shes only 1-2 months pregnant or something,so they could just lie about it.

Though I also did see some guy park in the expecting mothers spot one day too lol.

Those spots aren't meant for an expecting mother that isn't an obvious expecting mother.

o lol, then I guess so many people are illegally parking then.

Though places seem to have too many of these spots. Cause so many times I could go somewhere and parking lot could be so packed,but then of course you'll see abunch of empty spaces,all of which are those handicap or expecting mother spots. If all those spots aren't even filled up during the busy times of the day/week,then why do they need so many of them?

And to see all the people come out and wait in the interminably long line to see it, that was cool. It was just an awesome day.

Why was Obama at a Target in Wisconsin giving a speech?

So I just graduated college and I've been at my "real job" for just about a month now. It's a big company so we have offices in several cities across the country.

One of the women on my team (in a different city) is getting married and they're throwing a sursprise wedding shower for her next week, so we had an e-mail going around today if people wanted to sign a card and/or give money.

Now I've only talked to this person once or twice and that was over conference calls. Should I feel obligated to send a (cash) gift? If I do decide to give her some money, how much is an appropriate amount? I'm sure these are probably stupid questions, but I'm 22 and very new to this entire situation and I have no idea what the norms are in this scenario.

Sign the card and give $5 for appearances. You're new. Play the long game.

Since my wife has been pregnant we've payed more attention to those spaces, its funny how people interpret it. I've seen more women with middle school aged kids and guys who park and let their wife go into the store while they wait in the car than I have women who look to be pregnant let alone a child bearing age.

Re: Off Topic 2015

I probably say this annually but this is my least favorite day & weekend of the year. I have panic disorder and all these jackass loser neighbors launching fireworks all day and night is absolute torture. These bastards don't give up for the night til almost 4am, it's ridiculous. They are pure stereotypes too: Hey let's take our shirts off, chain smoke, pound ice tallboys, and make explosion noises all day!

I mean, are they really jackasses for doing what's culturally accepted to do on this day or because they're an inconvenience to you?

I'm sorry you have panic disorder but that's not really being a jackass.

Yea, if they had been doing it all week, or doing it tomorrow night, then they'd qualify as jackasses. Maybe a little inconsiderate if they are actually doing it until 4 AM (which you have every right to call the police if it bothers you that much and it is really that late), but it is kind of expected on this day.

at 4am? yes.

edit: I should mention I live in an apartment complex so it's not some neighbor in the woods, they do this in the parking lot that we also share with a restaurant. I saw a pizza delivery guy drive up today, have a firework land right in front of his car, turn around and flee

Yes they've been doing it all week and they are jackasses for other reasons as well but this is the specific reason I hate this weekend, the other stuff is mostly year round
