Here's the original video on CyclingMikey's YouTube channel!

I love his calm and simple approach to calling out dangerous behaviour from motorists.

I won't say that isn't a valid interpretation, but I've always thought the joke was simply "paranoid conspiracist thinks everyone is out to get him except the guy fucking his wife".

I think it also highlights Dale's sweet side; despite his tendency towards conspiracy, he refuses to see the obvious when Nancy is cheating on him because he is 100% in love and trusting of her. He literally can't imagine her betraying his trust like that. He will believe that Joseph is half-alien before doubting Nancy of wrongdoing.

Memes and veganism are not the same :/

I don't want to doubt your 80 year old friend, but I'm doubting your 80 year old friend.

I use they/them pronouns and work in the service industry. I've also worked with a few other trans people. That story is basically the opposite of how trans people act in public at their jobs, in my experience. We'll only every really correct people who misgender us if they're regulars and give off an OK vibe.

For me or anyone I know to call out a customer and tell them they're being rude would require something really egregious.

If the story is at all true, I'd bet your friend called her "sir" or something when asking for the refill.

Put it in your cupholder and drink it at home??

Insane that you're getting downvoted for this. I feel like alcohol abuse is so normalised in a lot of places. This really shouldn't be a controversial comment.

I find it interesting to hear 5% ABV beer being described as "premium". Here (Canada) it's basically the standard for every macrobrew lager, or around 4% for their light varieties. More high-end, craft beers will vary between 3% and 10% depending on the type of beer.

Characterizing Peterson as a "talented and charismatic academic"?? I don't know, maybe he was before anyone knew of him, but he certainly hasn't been that in the public eye.

Jordan Peterson became a well-known figure after publishing a series of Youtube videos about his opposition to Bill C-16, where he argued that respecting people's pronouns is an affront to his free speech. He's been a hack, a grifter, and an asshole since day one.

I found this source with some info. Quoting a relevant bit:

Most studies that considered sidewalk-riding suggested that it is particularly hazardous for cyclists, with estimates of 1.8 to 16 times the risk of cycling on-road [29,66-68,71]. However one study found that the risk of traveling on the sidewalk was the same or lower than riding on residential streets [64]. Another considered the direction of travel and found that the elevated risk when sidewalk cyclists entered intersections was almost exclusively related to cycling against the flow of adjacent on-road traffic

It can seem counter-intuitive that riding where the cars are is safer, but if you think about it, it makes sense. Cars don't expect fast-moving vehicles on the sidewalk (they often barely expect pedestrians...), the constant curbs impacts your flow while riding, people more often ride against traffic on the sidewalk than on the road, and honestly people riding on sidewalks probably tend towards more inexperienced than people who feel comfortable riding on the road.

I was in theatre school for a while. We touched on everything related to a theatre production, including sound. Our tech would always test his setup with Paul Simon's Getting Ready For Christmas Day.

I've heard that song used to calibrate audio setups so often that it's become easy to identify any issues when I hear it.

I'm a francophone and listen to a lot of music in French (both Acadien and Québécois) but I've never heard of this guy! Dig the track, it sounds like if Philippe Katerine tried to do punk!

The music video is so delightfully 2000s! I really need to get into more Canadian hip-hop, thanks for sharing!
