For all you Beatles fans out there...

You can watch other idiots Beatles fans at the Abbey Road crossing immortalized by the Beatles in one of their album covers.

You're right. I looked at the site. I never saw a bigger conglomeration of idiots. I'm guessing a convention of watch collectors was in town.

Idiots? All. If I were there with friends would I, too, act like an idiot and get a photo of myself doing something stupid in the walk? Probably.

I wasn't saying that people who go there to act silly are idiots. I wasn't even saying that Beatles fans are idiots. I'm only saying that certain Beatles fans who get all jazzed three times a week because they're going to see the Beatles Revue are idiots.

What's with the weird-ass zig-zaggy street lines? Too many pints of Guinness at lunch time? Or is that some kind of British code for "Prepare to swerve around tourons."

WOMBAT said...

I'm glad you asked. It seems that when Libs/Socialists are in charge, you cannot EVER do enough to protect the poor, weak, defenseless tourons (and other moronic pedestrians).

If you watch the video, you'll pretty quickly realize the excessive lengths to which they go to protect the Peds.

1. Straight lines along the sides of roads turn to zigzags near pedestrian crossings to notify and warn drivers to WATCH OUT! PEDS CROSSING!
2. Lights on posts flash at the PED X-INGs, again, to notify and warn drivers to WATCH OUT! PEDS CROSSING!
3. PED X-INGs are marked clearly with "zebra stripes" to notify and warn drivers to WATCH OUT! PEDS CROSSING!
4. If you look down at a PED X-ING, you are CLEARLY warned to "LOOK RIGHT" along with an arrow pointing "right" to warn pedestrians to look before crossing. Of course, peds don't pay attention to this sign since the drivers are watching out for them.

All this activity and all this spending and STILL... SOMEHOW... pedestrians get struck and killed by cars. In Libville, this is an unsolved mystery.

I imagine it's not really the "libs" interested in protecting pedestrians as much as it is the lawyers suing the crap out of the cities for not doing enough. "Knew or should have known .. if they had just painted zig-zag lines, it MIGHT have saved a life."

So, you're right, they can NEVER do enough. No matter how much they do, the lawyers will sue. And yet the idiot libs will NOT reform their tort system, so they'll just keep making lawyers filthy rich under the guise of being "humanitarian.

Meanwhile, can you imagine having to drive that road every day? Ha ha. You'd be thinking "GD THOSE STUPID-ASSED BEATLES."

WOMBAT said...

Who the f*%k do you think goes running to the lawyers every time they lose the advantage? NOBODY is interested in protecting pedestrians. Because of rampant lawsuits all based on (as you said) "you knew or should have known" arguments, governments and individuals are going bankrupt from legal fees and punitive damages. Of course, the only people financially enriched by all these lawsuits are the lawyers but that doesn't stop Libs from suing because "now it's my turn to get my piece of the pie!".

Libs will NEVER agree to tort reform because they dream about the lawsuit of a lifetime just like people on welfare dream of the big day when they win the lottery.

Yeah. Libs and roads... In Humboldt, from where I come, Humboldt State College turned into Humboldt State University. With its new name came shitloads of students; all liberals majoring in forestry and art. To the downfall of its residing town, Arcata, this place became Berkeley of the Redwoods. The first thing they did was outlaw the time-honored all male Lumberjack Marching Band who were known for their brutish and funny take on marching band boredom and make them include females. The band instantly was no longer fun and they sucked. Then, with students being of legal age to vote, the student vote (votes from idiots who had only come to Arcata a year or less previous and would leave upon graduation to ruin lives elsewhere) dictated who won city council seats and who ran local government. In short years, Arcata was (is) run by screaming liberals who would make Marx cream from his coffin. Regulations and environmental ordinances turned Arcata into a goose stepping al gore utopia. Police were legally handcuffed and family parks and beaches turned into gay sex havens and pot-clouded no mens lands. Streets were reworked to mirror superior European design. Stupid-ass circles replaced intersections. Stop signs sprouted like germinating hemp seeds. The classic was a straight street that city masters deemed to tempting for speeders. They made the center line swerve in elaborate "S" fashion and constructed large wooden planters in the resulting sways so that traffic would have to slow and swerve to navigate this nature obstacle. Within a month, local good old boys (a few are still left) had plowed into those fucking planters with such consistency that all that remained was a road with a stupid looking swerving middle line down an otherwise straight street. Today, cars just drive it as before, ignoring the stupid white line that squiggles down the middle as though the painters were just blind drunk. Unfortunately, the nazis are still in charge and despite this small victory, things are pretty terminal.

"... sprouted like germinating hemp seeds ..." Ha, good story, scot.
