I’m glad my two anecdotes of 25-ish years of driving have given you a complete picture.

Did I say it doesn’t count? The cop didn’t issue me a ticket so he didn’t think so.

I was once pulled over for doing 50 in a 30 and I was just coasting down a long hill. I’ve also been pulled over for doing 35 in a 25mph zone (a classic Texas small town speed trap where the posted speed went from 65 to 55 to 25 in a very short distance with a cop posted at the 25 sign. You had to be on the brakes to make it.) Some cars are quite quick, foot on the gas pedal a moment too long and you’ve blown through 8mph. Some people spend more time with their eyes outside the car than on the dash. Hell a lot of you drive around with highbeams on and there’s an indicator light for that too.

But also, “Watson already had nine points on her licence before the speeding incident occurred, the court heard.”

Ah, so not the scent-memories that were triggered in me then. Different Nintendo scents, makes sense.

suddenly tastes like a Nintendo Switch cartridge.

Fuck. I know this smell. You just triggered NES and Super Nintendo memories in me. Never played Switch but I’m assuming they’re about the same.

What are hexbear and lemmygrad?

It took me a long time in the first play through. Mainly because I just stopped for a few months after beating my head against the wall that is Melania.

My first thought: I love the stories in Elden Ring, there’s so many, so much history written into the art. But between constantly getting mollywopped and it being kind of trickle fed, I lose the story(ies). There are a handful of channels that go indepth on the stories, the legend, the history and “archeology” of The Lands Between.
There’s a lot of intention and love put into Elden Ring, but do to sucking at video games, sometimes it’s easier to enjoy the stories through other avenues.

Nah, fits my shoulders and arms great. I’ve just got a narrow waist. Everything for me weird.

If you really are looking for a hoodie: 1620.
Prices are high, they’re very proud of their products. Their work pants aren’t worth it, garbage*. Both pairs I bought don’t come close to my Wrangler for durability.
However, their hoodie is pretty dope. It’s long, and the hood is huge. A proper functioning hood, I can pull it down to my nose. Buttons instead of string. It’s thick & warm. Only downside is it’s long, and I’m 6’1", it falls below my ass. The waist is also wide, or my waist is just more narrow than the average tradesman they’re targeting.

Yeah, Gerber fell the fuck off. They became just sloppy.
I feel Leatherman has stayed the course.

Complaining is a tool. Talking is a tool. Leads to acting and organizing. Guillotines don’t spontaneously form from the aether.

As a user of threaded fasteners, the inclined plane.

Cockroaches are bad in my neighborhood, walk the dogs at night and you see them scurrying across the sidewalks.
I sprinkle DE all around the outside edges of my house, especially any nooks or gaps, paying attention to porches and doors; it goes under and behind the stove, fridge, shelves, etc.
Besides a few spiders, flies and mosquitoes I get no critters in my place.

Could just be a color casing process.

Bro…

How does Dune reference something that doesn’t yet exist?

I believe you’re thinking of in-n-out.

Their fries just fucking get me. They carry the meal. I don’t eat McD’s often but the fries always deliver the exact disappointment I’m expecting and I eat every single one.

I simply cannot get revanced to even download to my phone, and I’m not smart enough to troubleshoot it.
