That is frustrating, Sue.
Except, if you read the article it's attached to with the hazing allegations, it's actually preferable to me to the things this guy alleges was happening as SOP at Dartmouth.
OK, I didn't read the article, and I should know better than to say anything never happens. Matt, have you seen it done voluntarily? I would put that into a different category, I guess?
That's scary and frustrating, Sue.
Thanks guys. I told her to ask her doctor for tests, but her memory is not good and she's as stubborn as a pike, so who knows if she will or not.
x-posted with Bitches: after twelve years, I just bought a (used) car. I can go places when I want to go places.
I'm kind of freaking out.
That's exciting, amyth! I sometimes dream of driving, but am too scared.
You don't drive, Jesse? Sometimes I dream of an urban life where I never have to drive again, but here in NC, 12 years with almost no driving has been pretty limiting.
Also, hivemind: anyone on here Scottish, or know anyone Scottish? A FOAF is writing a book set in Scotland and has a question about a turn of phrase.
Nope. I have a license, but haven't driven in years. Not regularly since high school. Boston is the kind of place where you can do without, but it is better to have a car. Or at least access to one....
When I was last in Boston, I feared for me life: while being a passenger in a car, while being a pedestrian. I could not believe the extent to which people drove fast and badly and didn't seem to care about basic rules of the road.
I give Boston drivers the side eye to this day!
