So if someone is taking their time, enjoying the view, going under the limit and I just want to hit a couple turns within the margin of safety but enough to feel some g forces, I'll pass them.

But you have to realize with this example that this is no basis on to which to regulate any of this stuff on some level, right?

I mean it's not like I don't get it, love to go what most people would consider sort of ludicrous speeds on my bicycle and corner hard, same stuff at heart, and also no basis as to which decide regulations on other than that a good society would give me like a cool bicycle track (like not a velodrome) and guys like you some racetrack or hell, special scenic routes or something.

I absolutely understand its no basis to regulate. The irony of me crying about this is very clear. The race track is always the example people propose but the special scenic routes would be nicer.

Basically i'm shouting into the void "no please, i'm good, don't take this thing away" despite understanding that it's a net negative for society.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
