Seriously? WTF, while at a red light you start reading tl? That sounds like a terrible idea lol


Why? Do you realize that during a red light that traffic is not moving?

Going for humor?

I just read it during the light and then turn it off when its green again.

First of all, most breaks really quick... like too quick for you to navigate to a thread and read several replies. And let's say it's a case where you just miss a long light... then you still are likely to get distracted by what you are reading and miss the green and get honked (as someone else said).

So the two problems as I see it are:

1) You aren't paying attention to the light
2) You can't adequately concentrate on tl so it doesn't make it worth it

If you don't give a shit about 2 then I guess that's up to you, but 1 is what worried me.


Maybe I'm Romanian but I can't tell if you are joking with this post... at least I hope you are.

Looks like you and I are going to have to agree to disagree. Maybe you are just very good at that particular skill and rarely miss the light turning green. I would hate to read under those circumstances though.

edit: and yeah most of the people screwing around with their phones in front of me mess up.

Actually the 90 day ban hasn't been in effect for that long iirc. I think the first person who got a 90 day ban is still serving their sentence.

Since I registered my account I don't think there has been a day I didn't visit TL except for while out of town. Before registering my account probably like 2 years.

I managed over 2 years and 5 months without posting from May 2004 to October 2007.

But I'd say about 2 years... I was playing Counterstrike.
