You know what's "explicit"? The aftermath of an automobile collision with a human body. The f-bomb doesn't even belong on the same scale.

I don't understand why humans are such ridiculous prudes about all the wrong things, while in other contexts they are blissfully murdering each other—quite literally. This is why I stay off social media. I do not understand my own species, and they frighten me.

Unrelated rant: I once saw a US traffic sign online that said "If drivers are passing you on your right, you're doing it wrong". I wish those signs were everywhere.

CDOT also encourages people to use more than 6 neurons while driving by posting "CAMP IN THE MOUNTAINS NOT THE LEFT LANE" on most interstates. Driving in CO is a _nightmare_.

Semi-related rant: Boulder's 20mph residential speed limit is so annoying. I have a stick, and it likes to be in 3rd gear at 25mph. At 20mph, it's reving high in 2nd and annoys the hell out of me. The same is mostly true for my automatic, but slightly less.

Like, I can get behind the law change for safety reasons, but all the signs say it's for emission reasons. And I can tell you that my gas usage is higher at 20pmh than at 25mph. Sure, yeah, there's some study out there that ... blah blah blah.

Look, Boulder City Council is just crazy with their roads, I hate it.

Would another sign say "put up the phone bastard"?

Not sure why women were called out specifically, but I haven't spent much time in Colorado

We need some of these in my neighborhood.

The problem with a "put down the phone bitch" sign is it's more likely to prompt taking out a phone for a picture.

The last paragraph of the article seems out of place:

State transportation officials are also struggling with fake license plates. The company that operates automated enforcement cameras on a growing number of Colorado’s toll lanes has recorded dozens of false license plates with words like “T1RESLYR” on them.

What does this have to do with the fake signs? And what "word" is "T1RESLYR"? My best guess would be it's supposed to be read as "tire slayer", but I'm not sure why this is the chosen example. Is this an AI generated article, or just sloppy?
