WOW!! You must make an awful lot of money.

That makes a ton of sense. It's usually the richy riches who tip the worst too. Not all of them do, but in general. Like the Church crowd.

Holy crap. I just saw you still have antenna tv also! This amazes me. You are 39 years old, drive 45, don't tip, are married (I wish I could hear a story or two from her) and you have antenna? I'm surprised you are on the internet! You do know this is 2008? Right?

I think this isn't real.

What is wrong with having an antenna by which to watch TV? This is the way things are going, with the advent of Free digital over the air television now more and more people are dropping cable and satellite and switching back to watching tv via a rooftop antenna. get with the times...

hahahahaha....he said get with the times......LMAO!!!

Ok, now I know it's a joke. It's either one of the radio djays trying to find something to talk about, or it's one of those ashton kutcher punk'd episodes, or that gameshow where they try to make you so pissed that you leave and if you don't then you get $100 or something dumb.

I guess I lose this game, because I am not participating on this thread anymore either. Matter of fact, I think there is a way to block all posts from this tool. He and that orange cat would have gotten along beautifully.

Kinda what I was trying to say in the Tipping thread.

Ignore the troll and it will eventually go away.

Okay, here's the thing. It's a commonly accepted practice to move over to the right when going slower than traffic. It's even posted on signs. If you aren't doing so you are either clueless or just simply spiteful. Regardless of the reason, it's dangerous for yourself, your passengers and other drivers.

If you want to save gas, that's great. Move over to the right and I'll happily burn my gasoline at a higher rate than you and we can both be happy.

That only applies to the left hand lane and the chances of being pulled over for it are slim to none.

Oh, I see. You ignore convention and common courtesy for your own convenience. Well, that pretty much clears it up then.
