Because it's dangerous to be outside without being inside.

Well that and isn't a significant % of US citizens homeless these days?

Because no one want to listen to them yap on and on in the restaurant. And it could be a long drive back to wherever you live. Or the people at their home don't want to listen to them either.

I was wondering a good 30 seconds who the fuck Carbrian was

Try living here without one lol it's quite difficult and we try for years to get to a point where we can be free of the car

Can't argue with that. The US pretty much has no cycling infrastructure (and those "can count them on one hand" exceptions don't count)

I've done some bicycle-only stretches in my life. It's funny how literally every person I knew assumed I'd gotten my driver's license suspended for DUIs.

Because it’s more likely that you have an AC in your car than at home.

Man, I cannot stand eating even chips in a car, yet this guy ate a whole lobster meal with butter dressing in it. Just seeing the thumbnail sends me shivers.
