re: Uber/Lyft are worthless now

I was in an Uber in Baton Rouge one weekend and had this Syrian driver (he had a small flag taped to the sunvisor). This was back when the Syrian war trying to overthrow al-Assad was really hot. I made the mistake of asking him his opinion of Assad. Dude talked 200 mph and worked himself up so much we almost tboned a semi. We got to my destination and he was still talking at the rate of an Uzi as I exited the vehicle.
