The Hunger Rants

[SAT 9,609]

Yeah some states have that. Usually on stuff not attached to real property by means of a tool. 

This personal peppery tax should be deductible on a schedule A on your tax return.

These fooks are a menace on the roads here. 

Traffic regulations means nothing to them. 

They pay no mind to any traffic control. 

Just like as if they were in China. 

 

Like rural North Dakota drivers.  At the new Starbucks at the bigger town, they handed out a slew of tickets in one day for people crossing the double yellow and sitting the wrong way in the other side's left run lane in order to make a turn into the parking lot.

 

Since my street and alleyway are the driving test locations for our county, I can attest to the fact that a blind squirrel could pass the exam.

We pay property tax on the cars every year here - that came as a shock to me!

 

We don't, but we pay a high registration fee that is basically a tax to the state.

Now multiply that by 100,000 illegal fook scooters, motorized bikes, other illegal stuff. No insurance, no registration. This is the mean in NYC now.

Was it initially tax exempt (like, no sales tax)?

Nope.

You're all making the local crazies sound like decent drivers!

[SAT 9,609]

Don't ever get on a fook bus...

Perhaps I'll record a morning commute and show you the disorder and chaos that are caused by...

 

Illegal scooters

Illegal drivers (who bought their licenses from 1 of the dozen or so states that issue licenses to illegals)

Total disregard for any laws, vehicle traffic laws, traffic control, common courtesy, common sense. 

And over population due to the influx of illegals in the neighborhood. 

 

Some common nuisances...

 

Cutting in front of you to make a U turn thru a double solid yellow line. 

Pulling out in front of you, cutting you off to get out of a driveway or parked position. 

Cutting off the car traveling straight ahead to make a left turn. 

Cutting you off to make a right turn from the left lane, or left turn from right lane. 

Scooters traveling the wrong way down a one way street. Running stop signs like a bicycle. Down the sidewalk. Running red lights as if they didn't exist. 

 

These people have no concept of the words "right of way, yield, stop, signal"

 

Not to mention they are emboldened to pick fights with you all day long. 

 

For these reasons alone, I hate illegals. But there are many more reasons. There, I said it. No regrets. 

 

Btw. The driver of that bus today, name Ray Mong. 

[SAT 9,609]

Now, this bus company, Dahlia, is gonna get sued. But they'll go bankrupt, change names. That's why one bus company operates under 20 names.

Who'll end up getting sued? 

NYC and the MTA. 

 

Who pays? 

We do. 

The people of the state of NY.

 

[SAT 9,609]

It'll be a cold day in hell before a fook, or any China business, accepts responsibility for what they do. 

 

Now you begin to understand why the Chinese enclaves outside of China...

The people of Hong Kong, Singapore,Taiwan, malaysia, etc...

We don't call ourselves "Chinese" 

 

[SAT 9,609]

Now hurricane Jose is gonna graze us tomorrow...

I am curious as to why they don't just arrest them?

 

The whole illegal thing confuses me, why do some law abiding folk feel that the act of  entering the country without submitting to border control like the rest of us should give them some kind of special untouchable status - really don't get it.

Ah now this area, I'm an expert in...

However, we don't talk politics here. 

So, without getting into that...the cops hate the mayor, and won't do anything. 

But some cops can and do, write summons all day long, and still can't put a dent into the mad disregard for the VTL. Some don't understand the VTL (because they bought their licenses), some understand it, but just don't give a ####. 

 

There are many millions of people waiting to get into the country legally. But the line is cut. My wife has I-130s for her siblings, the wait for a F4 visa is currently about 14 years. Why?...

 

And the vermont processing center process times for a F4- I-130 is backlogged by about...10 years. Where 5 years ago, it was backlogged by about 2 years. Why?  

[SAT 9,609]

 

 

And thanks. Jose is supposed to pass by about 150 miles off shore. We're expecting gusty winds and heavy rain. 

 

I don't like this naming of hurricanes with mens names. Cause you know what they say....there's no fury like a woman's scorn...

 

Speaking of fury, and scorn,

We haven't seen Stretch...

Not doing anything because you hate the mayor? Madness!

 

The rest is a conversation I'd like to have sometime.
