Not-So-E-ZPass

E-ZPass is an electronic highway toll collection system that’s used in the northeastern United States, including Wendy’s home town of Boston. With an E-ZPass transponder in your car, you don’t have to bring you car to a stop and fumble for change to pay your toll; you simply slow down enough to safely pass the toll gate, where a sensor scans your transponder and makes the appropriate debit to your account.

If you’ve ever seen two people pursue the last cookie on the plate, the last seat on the train or the last available-looking single at the bar, you know what kind of disastrous hilarity can result. Here’s what happens when two determined E-ZPass users in a hurry race to the be the first through an E-ZPass-equipped toll gate, with mercy neither asked for nor given:

Two cars stuck together at a toll booth.
“Don’t worry, dude, that’ll buff right right out…”

Here’s a look from the other side:

Two cars stuck together at a toll booth.
“If I weren’t trapped in my car, I would totally kick your ass.”

Can anyone tell — perhaps from the license plate colour scheme and surrounding buildings — where this is? The license plates look like New York ones, but if the drivers truly were from that area (or perhaps “Joisey”), they’d have rolled down their windows and started a shouting or pummeling match.

Apparently, People Have to be Told That Too

Not only do people have to be told not to sit on crocodiles, they also need to be told not to feed or molest alligators:

C’mon, what kind of freak would even think of molesting an animal?

Michael Jackson and Bubbles.

Oh yeah. Forgot about him.

Even Dark Lords Have to Pee

It does look like Dick “Don’t call me the Vice President!” Cheney is relieving himself on a bush (now there’s a line for your next slash-fiction writing assignment) in this photo, doesn’t it?

I Find That a Little Johnnie Walker Blue Label Also Heals the Dryness of the Place

Engirsh sign: Five reasons to drink sake.

I like the third reason to drink sake: “for reasons”; there’s a certain Zen koan quality to it.
