You know, you need to quit because you are making a fool of yourself.

I asked you more than once if you ever walked along a rural road where there are no street lights, sidewalks or even a shoulder on the road with it being pitch dark, all the while having to worry about a steady stream of cars along side you.

You've refused to answer and instead come back with more nastiness.

In other words, you've never done such a walk and have no idea as to what it is like. Just admit it.

So, do you live in a rural area with no street lights, no sidewalks and no shoulders along the road? Lots of people manage just fine on Halloween as long as they are in residential neighborhoods where there are porch lights.

Yes, as has almost every single other person on the planet. It's not that hard. It's called.....putting one foot in front of the other. A magnificent feat I tell ya, magnificent. Maybe we should all get trophies?

It's Loudoun County (DC Metro), not Podunk, U.S.A.

Why yes, actually. A lot of western WA is rural where the sidewalks are a small strip of gravel between the road and the ditch. I've walked in conditions such as those with rain, and once in the snow. It's not my preferred method of transport, but I did it when I had to and it wasn't that hard. On a nice day or evening, it's even somewhat enjoyable.

A car is a necessity here, if you don't have one you walk far more than 2.5 miles since everything is pretty spaced out.

So, you've never done such a walk. Got it. If you had done so, you would know that it isn't the same as walking along a well-lighted sidewalk at night. No wonder you have no clue.

Try doing so---best when you're sober See how well you fare.

Stop making yourself look foolish. Go clear your head. Yet I know you will come back with another clueless remark. You can't help yourself. If I were a betting person, I would bet money that you will be back here---and I would win

Apparently for a certain segment of the population, it's unfathomable. I mean, walking down a street at night with cars & no sidewalks?? The very thought is simply exhausting.

I can honestly say I've never spent $800 to vote for a guy who dissed POW's, mocked the disabled and bragged about leering at naked teenage beauty pageant contestants. And, with the grace of God, I never will.

But thanks for sharing your priorities.

Thank you for making yourself once again look foolish!

You've never done such a walk. Go drive to the nearest rural area where there are no streetlights, no shoulders on the road and go for a walk. Be very careful. Even with a flashlight, it's hard to see that ditch or hole alongside the road. So, if you take a tumble, well...good luck.

As I said, you can't let go, can you? You enjoy making yourself look foolish. Next time, make sure your head is clear before posting.

Now either let it go or keep coming back here and embarrassing yourself. Your choice.

I done with you. Do you know it's never good to pui?
