The article suggests that it's people getting too close to take pictures, causing the horses to spook.

I don't disagree with you either, but I'm not sure what to do about it other than to continue to vote for people that I do think will represent me and then vote for the least shitty choice after none of those people make it past the primaries.

It's disconcerting that someone elected to represent me doesn't see that.

He's a wealthy career politician in his 80's I'd be surprised if he wasn't out of touch with the vast majority of the population. I certainly didn't vote for him in the Democratic primaries, but he's much better than the alternative.

Storage units are terrible about this shit too. They advertise $30/mo and after fees you're paying closer to $50/mo.

That headline could have come from a Jurassic Park movie.

I'm not 100% sure, but I found this old thread that suggests that if it shows closed then the car has already had the issue fixed. Maybe a previous owner took care of it?

Especially when the other person is immune to hypocrisy.

My spouse and I did something very similar. It sucks, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. Fortunately, we only had one friend that got offended enough to defriend us and, well frankly, we decided that maybe we were better off without that particular friend in our lives.

Congratulations, by the way!

I know that it didn't actually flee and just drove off because it was following it's programming, but damn, the mental image of this robot hitting a car and then going, "Oh, shit! I'm outta here," is hilarious to me.

...I may be a little high.
