Why not? It's a messy situation without clear answers. In other contexts, you can recognize that human lives are involved and yet not do every last thing necessary to save them. We could lower the national speed limit to 20 mph and save lives, but we don't.

Hi. We should lower the national speed limit (okay, the state and local because we don't have a national one) on city surface streets to 20 mph. |

If you're driving 20 mph in Boston you are not from here.
Screw this.

Minnesota drivers are awful in all the passive aggressive ways you would expect. Just terrible. Boston drivers are a little unhinged, but mostly in a predictable way.

DC drivers disregard stop signs and red lights in a way that is truly terrifying.

I didn't find DC so bad, except for Diplomatic plates cars.

"Unhinged, but in a predictable way" is perhaps the best description evah of Boston.

I had forgotten that, yes. But Fringey got hit in LA. One cannot blame an entire city.

Sure, but cities are better and worse in such things, and DC (in my experience) is uniquely bad in the way people run lights and stop signs.

Something really fishy going on there. Do you believe Paul mows his own lawn? With ear buds in? |

4. That's my money.
5. How my hair look?
Seriously, we use 4 and 5 for everyday office talk. If someone appears to be doing something that croaches on another's job, clients, domain, practice area, we use 4. Like every day.
And when someone has to go into a superior's office for an uncomfortable conversation we always use 5.
