You won’t find lane reflectors anywhere that regularly plows the roads for snow. Otherwise the plows would just rip them out every year. Once I moved somewhere with almost no snowfall, there were lane reflectors everywhere.

Then there’s also the whole issue of turning right on a red light. That’s a weird rule. Why is it a thing?

The Toyota Tundra.

Coach Gruden, please STFU. The tide has shifted. 

Shoes are foot prisons and I feel sad for your caged feets.

I think she meant luxury vehicles in the traditional sense- the $140k S63s of the world, compared to this GV70 which is more or less untraditional luxury.

I’ll never forget the day in 2011 when I got in trouble at a temp job because I spent the day reading the VSB archive instead of working. Good writing should make people mess up at work, and y’all did that. Thank you for all of the years of great writing and inspiration.

It’s honestly amazing how even a little bit of water can obscure something like a car for so long. Ten feet of water is the height from my floors to my ceiling, plus one foot. That’s not very deep.

This might be one of the best unexpected things written here in a while.

Yep - I had a 2pm ET time slot today that I had gotten multiple emails about, only to receive yesterday’s announcement that it was sold out.  Sweet...thanks! 

It’s not all that difficult to become a lawyer. You mostly just need to show up to class and know how to cram. Law schools don’t perform the gatekeeper function that med schools do—not anymore at least. I’m a lawyer and some of the dumbest people I’ve ever met are lawyers. We are not all that special, and the fact…

Okay, here goes. I’m 20 something, walking to my new job through the park. It’s really early in the morning, nobody around. I’m not easily scared, so it didn’t bother me. Anyway, one morning I see a guy in the park, he starts walking toward me then gives me a weird look and beers off at the last minute. I carry on, go…

There’s someone who manages farm output for Black Google? Weird.

Wealthy WHITE people with connections.
