Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

Yeah, the pedestrian/bikers/cars tend to have to battle it out. It's just because there are so many of all of them, sharing the same space.

I think it made me an insanely (as in dangerously) aggressive pedestrian. I still think if I make eye contact with the driver that means I get to go in front of them.

Maybe they'd just die happy.

Easier to find parking spots, then.

well, more 60-70 on Storrow - too many reverse curves and people coming on and off at short intervals - but still hella unnerving

Hee hee! I love driving on Storrow when you're able to get in to the curves.

I now realize I have completely disqualified myself from having a reasonable opinion about Boston area driving. But seriously, it's all about paying attention! Which is why we are all tense and need more oral sex. Elect me for governor!

My dorm room looked out over Storrow Drive.

Whoa - gotta be BU or Emerson, right? I went to BU and lived in Myles.

You got my vote. But, over the smiling robot (tm some other Buffista I'm memfaulting on) I'd vote for just about anybody.

All is well that ends in pizza.

So, the Boston drivers would be less crazy if they had more oral sex while driving?

Well, they'd certainly be more relaxed.

Not so much until after...

I went to BU and lived in Myles.

I was in Shelton! 4th floor. The "Writer's Floor." I lived there 86-88.

And I totally just had a recovered memory of witnessing a case of oral sex while driving in Kenmore Sq. heh.

(The driver was receiving, in case anyone was wondering.)

heh, my dorm room was on the corner of Beacon Street and Charlesgate (West? East? Whichever was the on ramp to Storrow). I went to Emerson and lived in Fensgate, sadly closed now. Well, sold and coverted to condos.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

it makes Dallas, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Washington D.C. all look calm and relaxing in comparison

Huh. I've never driven in Atlanta or Dallas, but LA and DC drivers always seem terribly un-alert compared to Boston drivers, to me. I feel safer driving in Boston because I feel I can trust the drivers there to be paying attention.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Until some court says that they are unconstitutional, then many writers will only say that they are "apparently" unconstitutional.

Okay, that mostly clears things up. What would it take for another court to call them unconstitutional? Which courts count? Can one court dub them all unconstitutional?

It's my husband's contention that S&G were destroyed mainly for being inhospitable to strangers.

Which agrees with the meat of the article:

Homosexuality can not be called one of the sins of Sodom, Gomorrah or Gilbeah since it is not in any of the lists of their sins given in the O.T. Ezekiel 16:48-50 lists the specific sins of Sodom as pride, plenty, laziness, uncaring for needy, haughty and worshipping idols - which was an abomination - not homosexuality.
