Excellent choice!
People, people! What Nametag said.
Here is a perfect example of the OP: The thread asks about the law for traveling in the left lane, and one poster says:
The poster doesn’t include his state, and his location field is empty. This makes his post absolutely useless.
The thread was in GQ, asking specifically for posters to cite the laws where they lived.
This kind of thing is what Muad’dib means. The same thought occured to me while reading that post.
YOU SANK MY JENGA SHIP!
Well, I don’t know about effecting it… but it sure could AFFECT it, if you know what I mean. :rolleyes:
Sorry, that was a little snarky. But still… use the English language properly!
And in keeping with the trend…
26 / F / Richmond, BC
(Planet Hamster only exists in Spoz’s mind… but it’s a great alternate location for me… that, or my fictional locale of the Hydro Flame Planet :D)

Humor is out of bounds in this forum. Heads will roll!
Not too shabby. Could be warmer though. My dog sled doesn’t work properly if it’s too cold!
So what’s north of 7? You talking about hwy 7?
Stephen G is right. Over in GQ, they get “legal” questions liek that all the time, where somebody asks something like “Is it legal to drive barefooted” (a good question in CA, where some PD will say it is illegal, then can’t come up with a Code cite), but not mention what state they are in, and their “location” is either blank or “somewhere over the rainbow”. Then, the next 3>6 replies are wasted as dudes either ask that question, or post the law in their state, or a similar attempt to be halpful…which isn’t.
I agree with the OP rant for these kinds of questions. If you want to ask “it is legal” question- FOR FUCK’S SAKE, LIST YOUR JURISTICTION!
It is legal for people to tell me to disclose my age/sex/location? I gotta know.
BTW, I’m a Martian.
What, my .sig line doesn’t say it all?

Yes badmana North of highway 7
I’m sure you are kiddin’ me, but I actually do have a dogsled team :). I took 6 dogs out infront of a mountain bike this morning. 
Ahh, dog biking. New sport right? 
You in richmond hill?
Hey now! That was my thread, and I clearly stated that I lived in SF. (Which may not be all that clear in and of itself, but at that time my location was “Kezar, California”)

Sorry dude. I honestly pulled that hypothetical out of thin air, being reminded recently by the thread about driving in the left (passing) lane. However, it is an interesting point, as many cops will pull that law out of the same place (thin air- or is it their ass?) However, if they mention it, simply smile & nod. if you get a ticket for it, ask that they list the VC section.
No prob. FYI, they messed with me yet again last weekend at Ocean Beach. Of course, it was sour grapes b/c they thought I was changing out of my wet suit naked*, and I wasn’t.
“Well, the law says you have to put shoes on!”
“No, it doesn’t say that sir.”
“What was that?!”
“I said have a pleasant day, sir.”
*To be fair to them, there were naked people everywhere due to Bay to Breakers finishing at OB, and they were probably pretty sick of it.
See folks, this is why it’s important to include your location. This Colibri is in Panama, but my Colibri is from Korea.

How about all the people asking about computer glitches who don’t bother to mention what platform they’re on?
Go eat your beaf bean and cheese burrito and chill out.
I was born one day when the sun didnt’ shine.
I picked up my shovel and walked to the mine.
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal,
and the straw boss said, “Well bless mah soul.”
Peace.
Now, based on the above info, can anybody tell me where the nearest McDonald’s is?
I’d say it’s near Ernie’s Ford dealership in Tennessee.
