Could be the case - I just literally can't remember ever seeing someone pulled over on the expressway that wasn't a state cop

As for the VP thing, a lot of banks have several VPs - they are notorious for handing out those titles like candy. As a matter of fact, a regular branch of bank is likely to have one or more VPs.

I have a friend that is a VP at BoA and he and his other VPs don't even have doors on their offices - they have cubicle like spaces. They've got like 5 levels of VPs.

I'm surprised no one said anything about contacting his superiors at his bank. I say roast the fucker because I had my 3 best friends, at the same time, get killed by someone like him over the summer - I knew them since 2nd grade.

Yeah the reaction was akin to one you'd expect from a child, but if you're familiar with the politics subforum, this is no surprise from said poster. I have to give it to you Blake, you did good.

Wow I think you're the first person to give half a shit of what I think about something.

I give you a C-

Blake fucked up the curve, kinda like the FOBs in my Engineering classes at Michigan. Remind me to never piss that guy off. Ever. He's like radix's evil alter ego.

That is tragic. There really is no excuse for drunk - or even buzzed - driving. It's just not worth the cost (the cost of life, the cost of a legal action, etc).

I'm glad you pointed that out. I probably shouldn't comment because I don't know him as a person, but he sometimes came across as a real know-it-all jerk. But again, I don't know him - so maybe that's just his online persona. He could be a nice guy.

Ha ha. Man you guys were on that...nothing like a team effort. If anything, it served as a reminder to the rest of us that even seemingly anonymous communications online can have consequences!

That's true. The internet turns a lot of "normal" people into complete pieces of shit all the time. I don't post anymore in the Politics subforum mostly because a civilized discussion is a lost cause, thanks mostly to brash, irrational, and childish behavior by posters such as the one in question. It's kinda sad that you can't have a civilized discussion about important stuff on here, but there are other mediums for that, thankfully. It's definitely a pattern of behavior with this guy, and it really surprises me that he would have earned any sort of Executive position given his attitude, demeanor, and complete lack of tact. He must be different IRL because he'd be friendless and jobless if his real life attitude mirrored the one which he portrays on here.

Didn't know radix, eh? Good guy, good with computers, and probably knows who you are and what you ate for breakfast this morning. It's not ALL about knowing computers anyway; it's about knowing where to source your information once you need to dig.

It always cracks me up when one of these threads appears that there are people who start saying stuff like "snitches get stitches".

Are you fucking kidding me? You're on the Internet, this isn't Watts or Compton in 1992. It's especially LOLtarded when the gangsta talk comes from someone whose location is "Nebraska" or "Ontario".
