Not a huge video music fan but I really like this one. Especially the big nasty redhead.

But basically the cop laid out $300 dollar fine, 6 months probation and a general impairment violation vs Highest level DUI, no loss of license to my lawyer and I just accepted. I think that was more than generous probably. Glad it's getting over and done with.

Wow! Learned a lesson and nobody got hurt. I can't believe the DUI laws are that weak back in PA. I think years ago there was an automatic 3 or 6 month suspension. But if you got caught doing that in az, it would've been an automatic 6 month suspension, huge fine, one year probation with drug and alcohol testing, and a breathalyzer on your car for a year.

According to that site... AZ #1 by a good margin.

I totally forgot about the jail time thing. It's actually just a weekend in jail. But in Maricopa county that's tent city.

holy hell. how much did your lawyer cost?

a friend of mine got a DUI at half that (still bad!) and did the standard ARD, lost his license for 6 months etc and his lawyer still cost like 2 grand.

i am being serious!

seems like any male, no matter the intent, can engage a female in any form of discourse or debate because it would be considered mansplaining.

It's the approach to discourse/debate. I think what women experience is that rather than open a discussion, men barge in to correct them, and then explain the topic like the issue is the woman not understanding the subject matter.

Yeah it's generally a condescending explanation to topics that are more 'masculine' like sports, business, etc.
