When 66 became a Dynamic Toll Road a few years back
This is when my decision to move to another state became a little bit easier. The fact that toll roads are popping up everywhere instead of our tax money being used for the most basic of infrastructure needs... our roads. It's both incompatible with the philosophy of taxation as well as admittedly a bit of a class warfare where those without much money cannot afford to take certain roads.
You know the worst part of that? They told us that as soon as the cost of the Dulles Toll Road was collected they would remove the toll booths.
Then they recovered the cost so fast they couldn't believe it. And they decided there was no way they would stop that huge money stream. If you don't like it, too bad, go take Route 7.
And of course most of the rest of the country gets free Interstate Highways, why should Fairfax County get nickel and dimed to death?
I really hate those toll roads.

Remember many years ago we would joke about how so many threads would devolve into evolution or abortion threads?
Now the abortion threads devolve into HOV gaming.
We’re getting soft.
Only non-witches get due process.

Now that you mention it, could a pregnant person count the unborn as a passenger in the HOV lane if she was on her way to have an abortion?

If you wish to talk about your sexual problems, start a new thread.

Another thing that doesn’t make sense? How are they setting the gestation at exactly 6 weeks and 3 days? With Lu and Fin we were always told “6-8 weeks”, “18-20”, etc…

You can't. Not that precise.

In my experience they can be pretty accurate. My wife is 12 weeks preggo now. When we went in for the first appointment around 6 weeks and they were able to estimate it was "6 weeks 3 days" during the ultrasound. Yes, we saw the heartbeat, too. Cool stuff. Anyway, we went back at 10 weeks to verify growth was normal and they verified the gestational age estimate was only a day off (so it was really 6 weeks 2 days at that first appointment) but they kept the same due date of Jan 22 next year.

This is going to muddy the waters.
