It's been awhile since I looked at ADA guidelines for sidewalks, but I'm pretty sure they only have to include a 5x5-foot passing zone for wheelchairs every so often. I'm not sure where the 10-foot width is coming from

---

Are ADA guidelines minimum standards or maximum?

10 feet just could be a whimsical thing because grandma, Scooby, and Peanut once vented about it during a Mother’s
Day get together.

It’s probably to accommodate the mobility impaired.

While driving through BR a couple of years ago, my Waze took me through north BR to avoid the interstate traffic.

I was amazed at the 10’ wide sidewalks in that area. It made me wonder why that area. A disproportionate ratio of wheelchairs and motorized scooters per capita made sense.

Why? I just figured shootings and diabetes.

That is probably the same reasoning behind widening Florida Blvd.

Elaborate please. What is this unlimited overtime you speak of?

Observation - people who don't care about gas prices can tell you how much they pay for it

Or they know how to use the Google machine.

I don’t need to know how much I paid. But Google Maps and other fuel apps will show me the data from users who care about it enough to post it on these tools

If I was black enough to qualify… I too…might be aggrieved and outraged IF dem titties might be part of the compensation package.

But titties only. Nothing else is salvageable.

I held out hope that you could be reasoned with. Then you provide evidence of how futile such optimism is.

It happens with conspiracy theorists. I find their narratives interesting and my goal is to learn how they think, the conclusions they draw, their ability to recognize how fellow humans think, and so on. So I hang in there until the futility overpowers the fascination.

How does a police officer detaining you needlessly on your day off, with nothing else you have planned to do, affect your day? You had nothing else to do? So what if you had to sit for an hour? You wouldn't mind a complete vehicle search prior to coming on to any public property would you? That's just to check for safety. Everyone loves safety don't they? I mean... everyone loves safety brought about with "tools" so much that France created the Committee of Public Safety in the late 1790's. The committee was just a "tool". That turned out ok didn't it? And really.... in the name of safety and security.... McCarthyism was just a "tool" wasn't it? And we couldn't have Japanese running around in the US in WWII could we? Cmon... internment camps was just a "tool" for public safety.

He's perfect for Barstool. Grown children discussing whatever. When he talked sports, especially football, he could be VERY insightful. Just too much Star Wars and comic crap.

I can’t imagine watching this based on this clip.

They talk sports while surrounding themselves with unrelated toys and other clutter? Is the set designer promoting the hoarder look?

Mental illness is not just a bug and is now a feature?

Gender reassignment surgery (also known as sexual reassignment surgery) is a procedure to alter one's sexual characteristics, not their gender.

Why isn’t it called sexual characteristic reassignment surgery?
