I (probably) know what all these notifications are from. I made a comment on the article about the police officer pepper spraying the bikers.
Today though... I’m just going to take the high road. I do not possess the willpower to
battle
someone with negative views. Sure hope there is dismiss buttons on replies.
Here is to the high road! Cheers.

The nerve of you to possess an opinion on the front page......

The number of times I’ve clicked the circle then clicked off to dismiss the number without reading the inevitable mouthbreather replies is getting larger by the day.

I was asking for it, for sure.

As a man with chronic nasal congestion I take offense to that.

They aren’t. Most were decent individuals, only a few bad eggs. I just didn’t have it in me for those either. So banished they will be to the dismissed land.

No lie, I had a nightmare last night that I had 65 notifications.

It’s probably one reply duplicated 18 times. Because Kinja :P

What’s worse, 65 Kinja notifications or Freddy Krueger?

I was hoping, but I was wrong.

Glacier NP? And congrats on the double digits. Sometimes if I don't check in for a couple days, I'll have 30+ waiting. Almost always because I said something obvious on the FP like "Infotainment systems suck ass, amiright?!"

I have no idea where the picture is from. I typed in high road and found it. https://www.flickr.com/photos/stankus… He doesn’t say where it was. If that is, that is a place I’d definitely like to go.
Ha, going against the grain will land you a hefty load in the inbox.

Search "going to the sun road" in google. I'm sort of a geography nerd, but I think that's it. Definitely on my bucket list.

I’m expecting this soon due to a comment about internet commenters behaving like Trump supporters, or more correctly Branch Trumpidians.

when i saw the picture, my first thoughts were 2 of my local passes- Hoosier pass and Independence pass.
one of the photo tags on the Flickr page is Rocky Mountain National Park

I'd rather deal with Krueger than 65 Kinja responses.

Ooooo missed that.Good catch. I was reading comments on the flickr page for someone to tell me where it was haha.

Even if it isn’t, it looks damn close. I need to go there. I wish it wasn’t so far from me. I’d take the family there this summer. We’ve been trying to plan a summer vacation. This would have been perfect.

? That was the best comment on that article. I think most people totally agree.

The crazy thing about the high Rockies, High Sierra, etc, is that you usually only have 2, maybe 3 months where you can go everywhere safely. The snow starts early and melts late, and often closes the roads (or just makes it hard and uncomfortable to spend much time at high elevations). And, of course, all the rest of America and half the world knows this, too. I hate crowds.

There were a few very angry commenters going on about cops in general. Blaming their ‘brothers’ for being as bad as him for not acting on this. There were a few other bad ones too, but I will not bring them to light because they don’t deserve that type of attention.

I discovered that two years ago when I was going to go when I considered it fall. Nope.. snow fall already began out there haha.
Finding that sweet spot would definitely be the challenge. With a newborn that challenge is amplified. It’ll probably have to sit on the back burner for a few years. I’m thinking about exploring Tennessee with the family or Virginia or somewhere in the Appalachian. Not sure yet where.

Worst thing you can have is an opinion on the internet.

I had 300+ stars and what felt like 200+ pissed of comments to my comment on the VR Porn article on Gizmodo the other day. Luckily, they stopped after 3 days or so - no way to silences the notifications for a post on Kinja

I love the ones the come in all outraged months later like their opinion is meaningful at that point.

I want to go to there. Looked up the road on Google Maps. Looks amazing!
