Any item that might add some sort of personalization or sense of place is not allowed as such things are an unnecessary "grotesque" display of indulgence. So boring.

Shockingly accurate.


I also love, love, love my historical garbage disposal, you should see it. I have it reconditioned annually for only $300. Every now and then it shoots shards of metal into my eyeball but she purrs like a kitten. You don’t get that anymore with these fancy new efficient InSinkErators.

Something to be said for that level of simplicity.

[Mazderati]

Make khrushchevka great again.

Show is on the doll where the bridge touched you.

Rage point - If you're gonna turn fucking do it. Don't signal, slow down, slow down some more then crawl around a wide open turn making everyone behind you nearly come to a stop in a 55mph zone. If it's your driveway you should know the best line into it that you don't have to stop traffic so you can get into a 30 foot wide entrance.

Just fucking do it and get the fuck out of the way.

[SumJongGuy]

Rage point.. If you're going to turn.. put on your god damned blinker so we know that's why you are slowing down and we're good to pull out from where you're turning in to.. Otherwise we gotta sit here wondering if you're gonna speed up again and NOT turn..

The end facades are not structural, but they are there to try to make trucks think twice before they do this to actual supports within the the bridge:

The driver that caused that damage decided to hug one side of the bridge and caused enough damage that the bridge was closed for 4 months. That truck drove through and kept going with pieces of the bridge hanging from it.

They’re gonna need a new sign

How many times can you restore a bridge before it’s not the same bridge?

God dam man that’s the Ol Millers Run bridge from 1878, before cars. Have some respect, that piece of shit is beautiful.

[riser4]

Are you ok in other places without covered bridges where they have designated truck routes and the trucks can't use certain roads? Or must every road be designed for every truck? There's no difference between a bridge not rated above a certain weight and a bridge not rated above a certain height.

[Rideski]

This thread is getting a little hot. Maybe we can change the theme to terrified flatlanders (or monster RVs) that creep along narrow, twisty mountain roads at single digit mph and bypass turnouts with a long line of vehicles strung out behind them?

I relate to that a little better than these freeway/neighborhood incidents.

8mph for 10 miles past a couple turnouts and a few side roads.

Yeah. Restored 1995

Whoooosh

You missed the joke.

And for all you covered bridge haters fuck off.
They’re actually pretty cool.
And they don’t need to be shoveled.

They are not cool. The only covered bridge that should be allowed are tunnels.

What makes them cool?

[BCMtnHound]

What makes them cool?

The shade, obviously.

[Core Shot]

What makes them cool?

They’re bridges. With roofs.
That’s not cool enough?

PS. 1878 bridge. Wtf? That’s old school cool.

[riser4]

Clearly the covered bridge haters aren't from around here. If you live someplace without them great. Please stay there

Yes, I actually LOL’ed.
More like a guffaw or a chortle.
Well played.

There oughtta be a law.

[half-fast]

Upstate eh? Remember when 104 from Oswego was two narrow lanes? Familiar with Salt Rd? Penfield? Still have the buffalo plaid LL Bean wool shirt I wore that day.

104 is still 2 lanes once you get east of sodus. Salt rd in webster? Lived in Canandaigua for a while so I got pretty familiar with the Rochester srea

To be fair, that rig can barely hit 10 mph on a mild hill, so…..

So, kid of a friend cut some guy off, almost caused an accident. The guy followed him and caught up to him in a fast food parking lot and approached his car. The kid told him to fuck off and flashed him the bird…. Turns out the guy was an exec at the company the kid (no longer) works at.

They're both lucky they didn't get shot. Driving like an asshole and confronting someone who's driving like an asshole are both bad for your life expectancy these days. Maybe getting fired will teach that kid to keep his cool in the future.

[Mustonen]

Kid just wasn’t paying attention. Didn’t do it on purpose.

I left all the color out just to gauge reactions, because I’m still working out how to feel about it.

Im more concerned that an exec would follow a kid and confront his ass. When you hit exec level you need to have some fucking thick skin. Everyone fucking hates you, even the ones that smile at you and say nice things.
