do not do it. it is the devil. ahem...I mean - for some kids it is a big problem, increasing moodiness, isolation adn anxiety.

A few years back a WFMU DJ was telling the story about how a listener (who I think was about 19) called her and asked what a 12" single was.

Ethics question:

Is it wrong to ding a business on yelp because the business owner almost caused an accident with you while she was driving? And you know the business's name because it was plastered on the car? And you know it's the owner because according to the pic on the website, it's the same woman who was gesticulating and rudely cursing you, even though you had the right of way?

Isn't that what Yelp is for?

Yeah, I'd say as long as you're reporting that incident, not saying you've done business with her and she sucks (if you haven't), I don't see the problem...

For grudge matches?

That was in response to Tom.

I think I'm naive because I always write yelp reviews for places I really like that I think should get business or I hope will stay in business.

I understand there's a gun range up in NH where they have Uzis you can rent (and very carefully fire, with an instructor at your side). Anybody want to go?

Check out this cautionary tale:

8 year old boy shot in the head when uzi recoiled

The boy was attending the gun fair with his father and brother Colin, a sixth-grader. His father, Charles Bizilj, said Christopher had experience firing handguns and rifles, but Sunday was his first time firing an automatic weapon. A certified instructor was with the boy at the time.

This is why I still dial with numbers most of the time, just so I'll remember the important ones.

me too.

ding them, but just for what you described. Something like "I don't know if they're any good at the business, but the owner almost sideswiped me in a company car, then cursed and flipped me off. I wouldn't want to give someone like that my business."

Have you read the reviews on Yelp?

my cousin once lost a job because he was driving a company vehicle too fast and soemone called the company to complain about him. I'd say it is more than justified. Sure you can't speak to the business itself, but her behavior in the business car is appropriate.

Speaking of business complaints, I just wrote in a complaint to Qdoba. Their Vegetarian Burrito? DOESN"T COME WITH ANY OF THE VEGETABLES!! They still charge you extra to add them on, like they do on the meat burritos. also got ass service.
