You are an asshole if you dont shovel your walks.
Personal or Commercial, you own it, you clear the snow or hire someone else too. Walking my dogs here and the same people just dont think they need to clear the sidewalks. Same when we were in the city, some stores/businesses just DNGAF.
Dont remember this ever being a problem in SLC
Assholes
YAAAI you do not alternate when it is in play. Anywhere.
...if you opened this thread. Neener-neener.
because it melts much faster in SLC.Quote:

Then I have to shovel that wall of consolidated slush before garbage day. If I don't the trash cans sit halfway across the street and he runs into them and flips them over when he pulls his F750 out of the driveway.
In my neighborhood, the sidewalks that don't get shoveled stay icy for weeks during the winter. Even days like yesterday that got up to 48 don't melt them out in the deep shade.Quote:

Goddamn. I'd have a stroke and an assault charge if my neighbor did that.Quote:

Yeah WTF is up with the push it across the street bullshit? About a third of the houses around here just push the snow out and into the bank across the street. This makes the banks swell out into the street and sometimes there's barely room for two cars and in bad weather there's no way you're squeezing through that. There are at least a dozen accidents around here every snow day because of this stupidity.Quote:

On the snow theme, you're an asshole (or worse) if you get on the highway with snow on your roof, especially if there's been a couple of freeze/thaw cycles and it's a big sheet ready to fly off with no warning for the guy behind you.
Nah...don’t feel bad at all.....know it’s in jest...but when I heard that story here in PA and my buddy showed the video....it was nasty....3 lives gone in 5 minutes...and it was all over putting snow where it “didn’t belong”.Quote:

unsubscribe snow shoveling/car brushing talk
What kind of temperatures are we talking? If cold enough for the snow to stay frozen I think I prefer it.
I wouldn’t recommend anyone watch that video.Quote:

trifecta of dog owner assholes
You see it?.....crazy right?....I’m not spooked by much...but I had freaking nightmares the night after watching that video. Unbelievable.Quote:

I’ll never argue like that with a neighbor that’s for sure. Never know who you are dealing with.

Edit: I also have a similar opinion of fake service dogs but that’s a different thread...
Edit#2: reread the first post. ADA parking spot violators are POSHBs.

Woodsy hasn't lived here for a while and winter was still a thing when he did. I've lived in my place for 14 years now and the changes that have happened in the last decade are astounding. The first 5-6 years we simply didn't see the back yard Dec-Feb because there was always 1-2 feet of snow, and now it's rare to have snow back there. Going further back, AC grew up in Holladay and in every childhood photo from winter there's 2-3 feet of snow on the ground.Quote:

I would be very careful with this one, as you can't easily see the underlying disability. So trying to parse out who has a "challenging handicap" in your personal eyes is a recipe for trouble, or in the spirit of this thread, a recipe for making you the asshole. For ex, I know someone (a mag, actually) who has a prosthetic leg. He can ski and bike and is damn good at both, and if he's wearing pants you wouldn't see his disability and probably wouldn't notice the slight hitch in his step. Is he not entitled to an ADA placard? Lots of the time, he's fine, but when he's having issues (with his back or prosthetic or whatever) he needs the parking spot. And I am not going to tell him when he should or shouldn't use the placard; dude doesn't have a fucking leg, he can use the placard whenever he feels like he should. Do you feel like you are entitled to decide when he has a challenging handicap and when he doesn't?Quote:
