You probably use your phone while driving a car 🤔
But that's the thing! I never text while driving, at most I use the phone as a GPS using one of those stands where you can stick it to the windshield. But most of the time it's in my pocket, same when driving a motorcycle. I can understand that it can tell if you're using a train, boat or a bus. But driving a motorcycle I'm using the same roads as a car, more or less the same speed. So how can it tell? 🤔🤔🤔

How can Google tell if I'm using a car or a motorcycle? 🤔🤔

It's probably using your phone's accelerometer and / or gyroscope to determine its speed and - most importantly- orientation. On your bike, you're probably leaning when you turn corners (I hope you don't do that when driving a car :lol: ), and Google uses that information to more or less guess what kind of vehicle you are driving.

Acceleration is much different on a bike than a car.
Acceleration, road vibration even on the smoothest bike is much more than most cars, leans, all sorts of tricks to discerning bike from cage.

I like looking at my tracking after a nice long bicycle ride in the country. Riding a roadie, you get some neat little, "motorcycle here, bicycle here" things when you hit seventy on a downhill, and less than fifteen on the corresponding climb. LOL.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I kind of miss jail. But, I know it won't be the same if I go back again. It's not always a friendly family reuinion in there.

But if I do, John I hope you in my cell bruvva. Made jail funny and kept me from bashing the only phone handle they had to call family and friends into a wall. Quite possibly prevented me from finding a tooth brush handle shanked into my liver too, as a result.

Thanks man, I hope next time I get locked up that you also coincidentally rob a liquor store. One Love.

I mean it's not ideal compared to life in an apt/house but I would rather be locked up than be on the streets. I'll just commit petty crimes and keep getting booked in for free meals when I'm down on my ass, I guess.
Positive thinking


It's funny you mention it because I had a friend that looked just like Ricky and Thank Fuck I don't look anything like Julian or Bubbles.

The show is way more accurate than people realize. Sure there is some imagination tacked onto scenes but for the most part like 95% of the situations are completely realistic.

Whoever is the writer TPB, lifted most situations from real life then improvised conversations in between to make them more interesting. Kind of like the rest of my post where the events took place but summa the lingo came from the nether regions of my improvass.

For example:
If you ever watched "Trailer Park Boys: Jail"? There is a scene when Ricky & Julian check in but there is somebody in the bunk masturbating 24/7. It's a 100% accurate fact and I'll prove it, right 'det:



Last time I was booked into jail, and this was exactly my experience with no exaggeration or improvisations; This mans in the top bunk had his dick beaters only stop speaking their native language under the covers when he ate or when he had to receive another dropped call from the other end.

Everybody drops those fuckers thinking it's some collect call for an ad on a product, sometimes they block the local jail number when trying to call his Big Daddy. "It's Sonny, his baby boy, PICK UP! MAKE BAIL, I'M YOUR SON! Yeah well, have fun playing golf down in Florida, you're a lousy fatha" He sez.

Then back to smashing meat patties back into the shape Burden King would have wanted. When I say he didn't stop for anything, then it also means he din' stop for no one else, neithers!



...I had a cell with 2 other mates, me and mullethead are sitting in our beds as John is cutting lines of instant coffee with 3 more cluckers in our cell railing lines off bible tracts. There were probably 4 or 5 more people outside on our porch of "balconing" waiting for brown skiis to turn into speedhorn shit peas. Apparently John is the only one that doesn't drink the coffee, he saves it for a small profit while he rails the lines himself as well.

I shit you not, Mullethead is STILL basting the turkey in his bed while this yurt yayo is being passed around. That's about fucking 9-10 people basically on our property. As this is taking place; more guests come by.

This crack dealing preacher came over to invite me for church service in the shower @ 4pm with another guy who handed a bible to me, and a bible to another guy who was waiting in line for, well, lines that will look exactly the same going in as they will coming out.

I definitely went to church that day, because it beat the shit out of watching HeadBangers Ball again when I've learned all the songs by heart already, especially when the host isn't even Jamey Jasta but some weird unknown new guy named Turkey Basta.

I could no longer lay in bed, watch, or pretend it's not watching me behind my back. My right side couldn't take about-facing a wall like I'm in the military, it's like screaming at a wall like I'm blind, deaf & retarded as if I'm in a punk band or some shit.

I swear I was trying so hard to turn back around but parking the bulk of my intestinal gorge laid up on my liver was taking it's toll by the third day. So at one point, my wifi was just trying to reach connection to go back irline. But, my character was stuck in a loop turning from laying on his back to turning to the right side because his left side was off limits for reason of multi-generational treason.

I wasn't gonna stick around for Jethro Tull over there to finish his foremeal, wash thine hands so that he may not taint his next generation of agriculture.

I just could not bear another lunar month of him seed drilling the next round of mullet lice down onto his nutsack where his crabs like to eat mullet rice. How else could they thrive for generational beer muggings which fund the fury of his public gaol fappings?

So I went to shower church for the first time in my life and I've gotta say, it beat the shit out another second of anticipating The Dodgening of some one else's future culture of agriculture on my forehead like I'm Georgies head Bush trying to translate foreign insults being hurled at me on the go or threaten another war in the Middle East over it if I can't dodge it anymore.

I shit you not, nobody but me batted an eye or even asked why he's training his forearms so god damn hard for arm wraslin' competitions when he could burn himself out. But on the flipside, apparently snorting lines of instant coffee can't be worse than lodging the entirety of Tony Yayo from his head to his feet, up they nose. Them bunsha bishes n hoes.

Okay can we talk about how Slipknot's "Iowa" album apparently was able to implode the drummer from Papa Roach's face during a mix he was listening to during tracking with them? Apparently he already had a disorder that the music just exacerbated, but still insane.

yeah he had Bells Palsy. Not so much "melting" as drooping but clickbait news gonna clickbait. Also the drooping is usually temporary.

I mean I was at knotfest a few years back and a dude died in the pit.

Yeah reading the article I was pretty "bummed" to find out it wasn't literally the music that imploded his face, but jesus the way they described the situation was horrifying.

I keep seeing these articles about Baldwin shooting people at the same place that Slash played a guitar solo in November Rain. Baldwin.JPG
