"Its" is the possessive form of it, "it's" is the contraction for "it is" They're, There, Their Using the possessive when you mean to use the plural. Calling facts stupid doesn't change that they're facts. You're fishing for people to give you permission to abuse the handicap placard. I should note that you also only went after the people who were against you abusing the placard. Everyone who gave a non-serious answer didn't get your anger directed at them. That's obscenely greedy, there are always spaces for lazy regular drivers, just often very few spaces right next to the door. Laziness is never a good reason to take the handicap space, but it is the most frequent reason people take it. Where do you live? If it isn't wheelchair accessible then it isn't a legal handicap space and the place can be fined for not having handicap parking. More ad hominems. The fact remains that you can WALK! Unlike the people who actually need the space. If you have a specific condition you want to talk about, then perhaps you might even explain why this person is driving a car if walking causes physical distress. The state will revoke your right to drive if you are not physically well enough to do so. If you actually worked a minimum wage job, then you'd understand that liberal feelings don't change that once that clock hits 10:00 you are out of there. This has nothing to do with firefighters, it has to do with the shop being near closing time and a large order was going to be placed right before everyone left for home, forcing everyone to stay for unpaid overtime. And it's not like people who place large orders actually tip for the service they receive... no it's all entitlement bs. Ad hominems don't change that we're right... the fact is that there is no moral dilemma, you admit that you don't need the handicap space and now are being super defensive over being called out on that you don't need it. If you don't need the space then you shouldn't be using it. It's more like you just don't understand how evil people are... there are thousands of people out there abusing the handicap tags. Your scenario is a classic example of someone who is abusing the tag, either you actually need the handicap space or you don't and are abusing the tag. Getting to park a little closer because you're too lazy to walk a few steps isn't the reason there are regulations to make those spots. This is really the only right answer, the main benefit of the handicap space isn't the closer distance, but that it is wheelchair accessible. It's akin to parking in the EV space if you aren't driving an EV or if you aren't going to be charging your vehicle. Do you know how easy it is to get a blue tag? I know several people who got one for a condition they no longer have and still use it. For some reason, the states don't issue red tags to people who are applying for a handicap due to recent surgery. Most people who have a blue handicap tag certainly don't need it anymore. There just is no agency that goes back to check that you actually still need that handicap tag. Yuck, heck no. Give me good SFX over CGI any day. It's just naturally that small. Kubo and the Two Strings isn't Japanimation/Anime... it's 100% American IMDb's forums fractured into many many different sites, most of which are known only to a handful of people. As time goes on, fewer and fewer people will come to the IMDb spin off forums (which are already pretty small because of how many of them there are) The problem here is that those are responses to your actions, if you're speaking in a patronizing tone or being intentionally insulting then people will respond to you accordingly. What do you want to hear? "Great job proving I'm an idiot, I really appreciate you telling me off." Using shame to change a behavior almost never works, but that doesn't change that people like to shame others. I'd argue that shaming is more about the person who is giving people shame, a way to make that person feel empowered over something he cannot change. In fact, it can easily be argued that there is a sense of power when you join large groups of people who all shame others they don't like. It's not really accurate though, an androgen insensitive man doesn't have a penis, but he doesn't have a uterus either. If we actually started off as women, the AIS man would have a fully functional uterus and actually be a woman. Having the physical characteristics associated with women doesn't make you a woman. Fetuses aren't born female, they only lack primary sex characteristics until the influence of sex hormones begins their development later in gestation. I wonder though. Modern CGI is pure eye candy, it entices that ADD part of the brain rather than the engaging story telling part. With how popular superhero movies are, despite just how awful those things are, are we pretty much just training our youth to be entertained by flashing lights rather than a thought provoking movie? You ask this every few days. The science shows you don't, you believe you do because there is no control in your test. Humans are very good at taking shortcuts and feeling that we're superior for having taken a shortcut. No version of speed reading exists where you retain in the same amount of information as if you slowly read and thought over what was happening... science debunked speed reading.
