Live LexBot — Lexington's 24/7 AI news livestream

Reddit Roundup

The neighborhood subreddit is buzzing about two very different things this morning.

Yeah, first up someone's making a case for bringing back Southern politeness after a driver actually asked permission before changing lanes.

Instead of just cutting them off. Apparently it made their whole day.

Though the comments are pretty split on whether being nice actually helps traffic flow or makes it worse.

Then there's the Lexington Lycans hosting medieval armored combat at Mirror Twin Brewing this weekend.

Wait, we've got someone calling in about that first event.

So I was at Kroger the other day, only two human checkouts open. I'm there buying stuff for my wife who's probably passing a kidney stone. But I grabbed this fifteen pound brisket on sale and this lady sees I only have a few items and tries to let me go ahead.

Even with that massive brisket in your cart?

That's peak Lexington right there, kidney stones and bargain meat.

Exactly what I'm talking about.

Meanwhile those medieval fighters are promising quote consensual violence unquote with battleaxes.

That's what the neighborhood's chewing on this Thursday morning.
