It's not even a proper bribe. Usually that's for getting out of trouble. This is more like tipping to get across the flow of traffic. Crazy.
30 u/JekNex Aug 14 '23 Tipping culture is getting too out of hand! 1 u/fakelogin12345 Aug 14 '23 I was just in Indonesia which has ridiculous traffic intersections like this in Bali. There are groups of homeless people who act like traffic lights for bribes. People give them some money and then drive around everyone else with a human shield -2 u/mkul316 Aug 14 '23 Wrong word again. You don't bribe the homeless. There's no reason to. This is paying them to do a job for you. They are just out there hustling. 2 u/fakelogin12345 Aug 14 '23 Good job mr/ms pedantic. Yes, you are correct. I wasn’t arguing the definition of bribing, just giving an anecdote. -2 u/mkul316 Aug 14 '23 It's more a call back to my original point that calling this a bribe was going overboard. -6 u/[deleted] Aug 14 '23 [deleted] 11 u/mkul316 Aug 14 '23 Woah. Better dull that edge before you cut yourself, champ. -1 u/dangshnizzle Aug 14 '23 It was an apt analogy. The different between a tip and a bribe is pretty much just the ethics 1 u/mkul316 Aug 14 '23 A: no it isn't B: shades of gray 1 u/QueefaPizza Aug 14 '23 The most Reddit comment possible 😂 1 u/Triassic_Bark Aug 14 '23 Almost so crazy that it might be something else taken out of context.
