(Though there isn't an actual 'Road Tax' as soon many believe there is.)

So what do tax disks show you've paid? My life has been a lie.

Roads are maintained either through a small tax on gas and large vehicle (55,000+ lbs) registration (for the national level) or through vehicle registration fees at the state level mostly (though this varies a little bit from state to state).

It is also funded by road/bridge tolls, at least around the New York/New Jersey area.  They've raised rates a few times over the past few years on some of em.

I'm pretty sure not all the fighters are human iin saltybet
that means its animal abuse
saltybet is satan for animals

There's definitely outright animal fighters in saltybet. Bison and bear are pretty solid, and killer whale is supposed to be one of the deadlier things in the game (haven't had the fortune to see a killer whale match, yet). Then there's critters like Ecco (Eco?) that's basically a massive undersea gangbang that almost never loses, or the Kraken which is almost as much of a boot to the head as the original Shining Force one.

Basically, animals are definitely represented in Saltybet, and they trend toward brutal.

I misread that as Trolls, which seemed like a nice and historical way to gather taxes.

"Wait, wut r we spost to b doin?"

The same girl in my class keeps saying this so many times, whenever the teacher finishes saying anything. We learned how nuclear changes, this was said quite a lot.

oi, i remember saying that one starting from elementary all the way to and including high school - i waltzed off to whatever land my daydreaming took me off to most times, don't say that it hasn't happened to you. the sheer volume of it can be ridiculous though, once you notice you aren't paying attention you're supposed to put some effort into not stopping to care about the stuff you're working on again and that girl might have problems with understanding this here part

or just you know ceasing to care about it and doing your own thing instead of annoying the people who are indeed caring

I so want to use this in a fantasy setting now -- trolls employed by the local king to gather customs duties from travellers. Adventurers could be hired by a merchant company to kill the trolls at a certain bridge before they send a particularly high-value caravan through, only to find out later that their "good deed" constituted murder of the King's officials and now they're wanted criminals.

Furarchy of life.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Would furries count as animals or people? And what if you have furries who own pets?

Depends on the pet, usually considered to be akin to owning a pet monkey if it's the same species belt.

Discworld, specifically Carpe Jugulum and Lords and Ladies, features a, uh, t(r)oll bridge, although in this case it's more border guard than anything.

This is actually sort of brilliant, because trolls are:

1. Somewhat unimaginative and single-minded, at least in DnD, because they're low Intelligence and low Wisdom. They just want da bux for da baws, brah.
2. They're tough, nigh immune to death from non-fire/acid sources, and if you cut them apart, you just have more trolls to deal with.
3. They'd probably be a cheap hire. "I will give you one animal of your choice for every month you watch my bridge."
4. They're intimidating. No one wants to tell the ten foot tall, insta-regenerating, man-eating monster 'no'.

anyway, I'm not sure why PETA hates McDonald's so much, since they're #1 on my list of "least likely to have actual meat in their food"
