The colours are nice, but it needs more dragons in the competition lane. Or perhaps plesiosaurs in the pond. I can't decide.

  And to be more accurate, the taxi should be driving in the bike lane.
  1. straffinrun 10 years ago
    
    So should Uber and Lyft.

  The shark needs a laser beam on top of its head.
  1. UnCivilServant 10 years ago
    
    Why? It already has a sea mine there.

      But, it's a frickin shark with a frickin laser beam on it's head!

Who puts tire shredding sawblades in a sinkhole? Seriously, the chances of catching the are under those conditions are minimal, making the effort moot.

I wonder if major hotel chains are going to lobby against Air B&B.

  You think they haven't?

This better not have been drawn with a drone. That's unfair.

    Nice touch with the "sir or ma'am." Women on this site? As if!
  2. Pinky 10 years ago
    
    I didn't create an account on Reason's Hit & Run blog to be called ma'am!

Sharks and naval mines are competing for my transportation dollars and I didn't even know it! The free market is alive and well!
Rebel Scum 10 years ago

It needs more labels.

Those mines are going to make it a bitch to get to your cab.
Charles Easterly 10 years ago

There's a "Jumping the Shark" reference or joke in there somewhere but I cannot find it.

Anyone? Anyone?
1. Almanian - TRUMP THIS 10 years ago
  
  "Uber and Lyft didn't last long enough to even get a chance to jump the shark...."
  
  How'd I do?
  1. Charles Easterly 10 years ago
    
    Slap yourself.
    
    *rapidly moves away*
Almanian - TRUMP THIS 10 years ago

I don't get it. Awful, therefore, perfect.

Happy Fucking Friday, Reasonoids. I hope you all run into construction on your next journey and die of boredom in a traffic jam.

Also, for FUCK'S sake,

*SLAP!*
1. True Scottsman 10 years ago
  
  I deserved that.
2. invisible furry hand 10 years ago
  
  *slap!*

    That stupid moustache kills any empathy I might have.
    1. Charles Easterly 10 years ago
      
      You just had to mention a moustache in a thread about riders, didn't you, UnCivil?
      
      *attempts to narrow gaze in Switzy fashion*

The post office and fire department are not going to be happy. Why does Nate Beeler hate public sector union workers?
C. S. P. Schofield 10 years ago

To complete the picture, there should be a frame marked "light rail" with a politician pouring money down an apparently bottomless hole.
1. Almanian - TRUMP THIS 10 years ago
  
  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Those are land mines people--get the illegals to clear the lanes.

A government of the cronies, by the cronies, and for the cronies, shall forever suck the blood out of free enterprise.

What about the "One Cab to Rule Them" sweetheart deal New York City has made with Nissan, barring all but one model of Nissan from being used for most cabs in the city?
