    If I had to survive off my fishing skills, I would lose a lot of weight fast. Must run in the family as my daughter once won the prize for the ugliest fish caught. There was no way anyone was eating that thing.

    Retard Chariots/Texas Wheelchairs/OHV's whatever the fuck they are. I'd love to see each and every one of those damn things impaled on pungee sticks and burning in a pit.

    Well to be fair it's a pretty big bridge and it's 100 years old, but yeah, 3.5 years??? So that means it'll take five, wtf?

    That must be a very different fish than what some call a ling around here (also known as cobia), because those fuckers are like fighting a train and taste like heaven.

    255m?.... Come on over to my neck of the woods ... 5.5 B to replace the Tappan Zee bridge with almost the same bridge, the new one will have no mass transit but will have a Bus lane so that the busses can have their own lane of traffic to sit in. Claiming it will take a little more than 5 years to build. As an added bonus, the estimated toll to cross is $14.00.

    Hey to be fair that price includes a hummer from the toll booth attendant. Not sure how that's supposed to improve traffic flows, but I'n not an engineer.

    Oh man that brings back some bad memories. Noisy upstairs neighbor is what finally drove me to buy a house. Day after day, week after week, month after month. That shit gets real old.

    People that think a pound of overground, dark as shit French roast gives them the biggest kick in the pants in the morning, yet have to put 8 spoons of sugar and cream in it to make it palatable.

    I was never a coffee snob until I worked at opentable a couple years ago. Two dudes sent out a memo saying that there needed to be uniformity in the office coffee, with a tutorial video, and basically said that if you weren't willing to do it this way, just to come and get them. Some people saw it as off putting, but a couple weeks later every person in the office was grateful.

    People that eat the heel of a loaf of bread with 95% of the loaf left to go.

    My crimefighting neighbor that finds it his province to mow down all the tall grass near the stream through my backyard on a nice, lazy Sunday afternoon when we are watching some MotoGP.

    In the same vein, the same neighbor whose kids are up and outside at 7am on the weekend, yelling screaming and often crying.

    Late sleeping pussies are annoying.

    Self important, early risers who consider 7am late on a weekend are annoying.

    In the same vein, people who pull up to an apt building and honk repeatedly to get the attention of the person they're picking up. Use your phone or walk up you dumb cunt.

    I haven't posted anything that irritates me in this thread but it irritates the shit out of me when people who know exactly fuck-all about someplace slam it to make themselves feel superior.

    If you think the DE beaches suck you should check out Ocean City, MD -- the only other option <4 hours. You'd change yer tune right quick.

    firstly, I don't stop by here to engage in a pissing contest. If Delaware is your place to be, sorry if I offended you but I am lucky enough to travel most of the country for business and just was passing my opinion based on my travel experience.

    And yes, I have at one point or another visited all of the Delaware coast. Lewes is nice but there is zero going on there. Rehoboth... I flew in Ms Tennessee while we were dating and stayed at an ocean front hotel there. Nice town to weekend in with a chick. Little shops, restaurants, shopping . She had a nice time but as a single guy... it's primarily gay so, not my choice. Dewey... essentially a two bar town where dressing up means a clean wife beater. Heading south, there is miles of absolutely nothing till you hit Bethany Beach which is still essentially nothing. From there a State park then Maryland.

    I'm first to admit I hate the beach, boats and the whole coastal thing. If I do any kind of anything around water, I will hit Miami/Lauderdale/Palm for a long weekend only because it's more city like and not beach like. Even then, 3 days and I'm good for the year. Sometimes even 2 or three years.

    Anyway sorry if I insulted your place to beach guys I am sure if you are a beach person it's great. i still fly myself out of there at my own expense if I have to be there over a weekend.

    I think he's referring to the dummies who drink Fiji water but still get their ice from the ice maker, which uses tap water.

    Haha .... I had a friend who was super hot, 18-19 years old, who worked on this bridge as a toll collector. She used to come home in tears from the constant harassment from (trucker) guys. She eventually quit because of it.

    Ah. that makes sense. Nothing wrong with our tap water around here, I rarely buy the bottled stuff.

    I'm sure it's been covered - but people who don't know how/won't let people merge drive me nuts.

    I know I will get flamed for this, but New York fucking city. What a fucking cluster fuck. Stopped by last weekend to see some friends there, 40 minute queue at the airport for a taxi, lines for the museums, lines for this and that and the fucking traffic, Jesus Christ. I will never complain again as I drive through Hell A. Taxi driver on the way back to the airport is telling us how much he loves New York Jesus, the guy has obviously never been to a nice place with a little elbow room and no fucking lines. O fuck and the prices of everything there. I am so glad to be back on the Island.
