^^ That is just wrong. Please put some sarcasm tags in your post. Please

I have always heard it said over and over that driving a car is NOT a right, but a privelege.

Well think about it. For both, you have to use them in a safe manner. You have to obtain licenses for both. You have to be old enough to operate both.

I believe they are both in the same boat.

Actually, both are a right that you may only excercise by meeting basic safety criteria. Both rights can be cutailed if you fail to use them responsibly.

Not according to law officials around here, duke. They say it is a privelage that can be taken away whenever you violate any of the millions of stipulations they put into place to prevent you from keeping that privelage. Where as, with guns, the only way you lose that right, is if you shoot someone/something on purpose. Also, since the whole gun ownership is in the Bill of Rights, it is a right here in America. If you ask me, if cars existed when the Bill of Rights was founded (as well as the Constitution), there would have been atleast 20 people saying that it should be a right, not some stupid privelage.
 
What's with all the critisism? Just read the jokes and move on. Why does everyone have to get so critical about it? Idiots.

The thread would possibly die, or just be filled with tons of responses like,

"👍"

or

"Hahaha, that was good. I liked it."

Its good ol' conversation. I think everyone got the jokes and found them funny, but there were some things we could relate to.

Idiot. :sly:👍

One of the best/worst ideas. Ever.

Its awsome when you get normal customers that have everything set up correctly, or even understand there may be a snafu with the insurance company or their doctor hasn't called back. These people rock, and make up 99% of our customers.

Its horrid when you get some ***** of a customer that won't listen to any reason, and its usually THEIR fault their perscription isn't ready, and for some reason the idiot left this as one of the last things to do before they go to the airport. These people decide to be pricks and sit there, in front of the window, not letting anyone through. Then we (store managment), who hardly step into the pharmacy and have NO idea what is going on back there have to try and convince this idiot to move. 9 times out of 10, they roll up their window and won't even listen.

I'm so glad our store doesn't have a drivethrough, bigest PITA ever. Our store is in the middle of 2 of the biggest retirement communities in all of arizona. Lots of idiots like Goomba just talked about :(

We are relating to what they say and discussing it. Why do you have to get so critical about us criticising the jokes? And no, I'm not criticising the criticism you are placing on us criticising the thread.

Capish?
 
I still believe we're in the Rumble Strip, if I'm not mistaken. If this was a comedic thread, it would have been in the Comedy Corner.

Does that mean we can't be funny in any forum unless it's the Comedy Corner? Most of the threads in there are jokes and funy anecdotes. Humour is the best weapon, defense, and medicine, and I say spread it thick and wide.
 
Actually Anderton, he wasn't saying that this thread is in the wrong place, he was responding to the guy that complained about us discussing each little joke. He was basically saying it's not a Forum that just posts jokes and you say "Nice one" or ":lol:" or something, he was saying that this is the Rumble Strip - it is meant for discussion.

1. Only in America......can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.

2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink.



3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

4. Only in America......do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet Coke.

5. Only in America......do banks leave both doors to the vault open and then chain the pens to the counters.

6. Only in America......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.



7. Only in America......do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.



8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

9. Only in America......do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

Nah that's okay. You're entitled to your say. We're not angry at you, just stating our feelings. Don't worry about it. 👍
 
Ponit 6 is true everywere, only because people are so sad that they need to show off their cars to the neighbours. Then get broken into.
 
Yeah. But we don't generally do that here. Old junk goes out the front for the scavenger kids or bums to collect, or maybe just the Council. The cars go in the Garage. If you have more cars than Garage spaces, it's fine to leave them out front.

However, we're moving, so 1 of our garage spaces is filled with items to be delivered to our new house when we move. So we have 2 cars (Mine and Mums) out the Front, Dad's goes in the Garage (although I've tried to steal the Garage spot).
