    As a cheap old bastard it'll be a cold day in hell when I order any kind of food delivery. Even pizza and Chinese gets my fatass rolling after it. And pizza is always Papa Murphy's, cooked at home and piping hot! (WTF does "piping" mean, anyway?)

    Ain't using Uber or Lyft either.

    Car dealers have reverted to using ride share to replacing courtesy rides. I had a recall on my car and instead of a ride by their shuttle the ordered a ride and the same to pick me up.

    I have used lyft a few times in other cities to go from the airport to a hotel for work. Much nicer cars than taxis and quite a bit cheaper. Used Uber in Quebec city for the same thing during a taxi strike. The hotel was across from parliament parliament and blocking access. Had to be dropped off a block away.

    Well, if someone else wants to pay for it, sure.....

    I've taken an Uber I think twice that I can recall. Once in Iowa, once in Salt Lake City. Maybe in NYC but I am a bit fuzzy on that. Usually from airports to my first stop. As an independent spirit, I'm not big on paying people for services.


    THATS WHY I STIFFED THEM ALL HAHAHA (just kidding, yes, I tip well). Overall it isn't too strange. When you're a long way from home sometimes you have to, and I honestly slightly prefer a rideshare over a taxi. Sucks for Taxi drivers, but something to understand is the medallion system/government fraud is at fault there. Take that away and Uber wouldn't exist, at all. Nearly all "taxis" used to be rideshare in essence, until organized racket and politicians got together and exchanged bundles of up to a million+ in cash to cut out the competition.

    And if anything will be the death of Uber/Lyft, it'll be local politicians once again trying to squeeze millions out of a fake coin.

    Luckily, Uber and Lift being analogous to a nation-wide union, it's not so easy to do.... Perfect system, hell no, either way (taxi or these companies).

    If we demolished the medallion system and let independent drivers do their own thing while abiding by baseline regs and/or free/nearly free licensing, maybe that is what it should be.

    I had no choice to use Lyft few times when I was in Wadhington. Asshole sister in law loves to *uck us over on a ride commitment.

    I think it's a reference to heating pipes. Basically, buildings used to (some still do) have boilers that'd circulate hot water through the pipes to heat the building. Said pipes would get pretty darn hot, hence piping hot.

    Speaking of Uber & Lyft, what ever happened to that driver who shot his passenger in supposedly self defense ?


    And on this thread?s topic, I had a door dash driver try to deliver someone else?s order to my residence. He even tried to insist that he was at the right address.
    I almost accepted it just to get him off my front porch??
    Wonder what would have happened to their system if I would have taken the order ?
