For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

When I was on there, every news article about a black criminal had the same handful of identical comments. "Another black male," "The usual suspects," etc.

I started leaving those comments, too. Got banned for commenting "another white male" on the mugshot of a drunk driving cop lol

Wonder if this is real, or what the story behind this photo is.

Just a guess but I'm going to guess it is stencil graffiti.

My bet -

  1. Ordinance that all streets must have a minimum road width for motor vehicles.
  2. Attempt at reforming streets to make them more bicycle friendly mandates that this street must have a separate bike lane.
  3. City planners mark out where bike lanes should go by looking at a map.
  4. Supervisor dispatches workers to add bike lane.
  5. Workers arrive at street. It was built too narrow to accomodate street parking, motor vehicle travel, and bike lane, because it was built in the middle ages.

Skill issue!

This appears to be the Netherlands in the 70s/80s, back when they were transitioning. With how skilled Dutch cyclists are they can probably ride within the line while blindfolded and carrying a full size couch on the back of the bike. Realistically though they're riding down the middle of the street while not giving a fuck.

Looks Dutch, heard they're good bike riders
