A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

Fuck off, zipper merging as the lane ends is the most efficient use of road. We all get there sooner when we zipper merge properly.

With age I’ve really pivoted on when to zipper merge. It used to be”merge early to be polite”, but now I’m firmly in the camp of “If everyone merges at the end, then it is perfectly equitable to everyone.”

It’s the people who merge early who cause the unnecessary disparity. At least, when one lane is ending this is true.

yall jerking eachother over zipper merging when none of you do it correctly. just join where there's room to keep the traffic flowing. you gunning it to the end of the lane to then aggressively start pushing once it starts closing in on you is not zipper merging.

When done properly.

Around here, it’s not a zipper merge, the lane isn’t ending, they go different places. If you wanted to exit the line stared at the top of the hill.

What if someone isn't a local and didn't realize the beginning of the exit lane started so far back? What? Just too bad you had your chance? Letting someone in takes two seconds.

If the multiple massive overhead signs didn’t make them realize, they should suck it up and reroute like an adult.
