Planes, trains, and automobiles!

But you weren't the one sitting next to me, were you?

You should eat it in the terminal and not bring that stinky mess with you slurping it in my ear.

I can't top it, but suffice to say, flying brings out my inner misanthrope. People who bring their own food (PU) are a pet peeve of mine. Add to that the seemingly endless wrestling of maxi-carryons into the overhead bins. It makes me not ever, ever, ever want to fly anywhere. Talking heads on the Today show are…

I just ordered one yesterday. I hate wires too. Can never keep 'em straight.

Exercise sucks, and music makes it suck less. I could have told you that already.

With big boobs. The newer the anime, the bigger the boobs.

Only if you've got particularly nice gams. Otherwise, the suggestion was simply to walk out.

I think for a lot of folks (and it scares the hell out of me too), the idea that the RIAA/MPAA can reach down and have a civil court carry out the financial equivalent of summary execution on anyone they suspect might be in possession of an illicit copy of Animal House or the White Album gives them sufficient…

And poof! they're gone. Seems the mods are on the job. It would be nice to have a "report this" button, though.

You'll regret buying used once the Febreeze wears off and it becomes apparent that the previous owner was a chain-smoker who raised hogs for a living. That said, if you must buy used, look for cars that have been certified by the manufacturer. We've bought a couple of Toyotas that way before, and haven't been…

They'll play that game if they want your business, and as the people at Wise Bread pointed out, you can always use those things attached to your waist to make your point.

Shorter Woogie: "Dude, your commission might be small, but it's the easiest one you'll get all week."

Funny how the people at the Am. Legion post where I occasionally drink beer know not to talk about politics. I certainly know not to do this because the people in there are probably a few notches to the right of me, down to the little old lady at the end of the bar drinking the gin and Snapple and pretending to be…

I just got mine last night, and I couldn't believe how wicked fast it is. The old Roku was frustrating at times. The menus would take forever to load, and it didn't seem to matter much how fast your WiFi connection was.

Yeah, but one ought to steer clear of any job with a built-in expiration date. You can walk on water and still find yourself looking for another job in six months. That would suck.

The family name Toyoda means "fertile rice fields," so it might actually be the case that Akio is the scion of a fertilizer family.

Location, location, location. I bet there's a McDonald's on your way home too.

Good for you. Contract to hire needs to DIAF. I was talking to a headhunter about two months ago about a job I found on the Internet, and then she told me it was (by the way) contract to hire. Cut her off right there. Why would I give up a perfectly good - and fairly secure - job to go join some other company on a…

There is no standard in the USA. Two weeks is customary, but not mandatory. If you're a manager, you might want to consider how long it would take to find a replacement at your level because you're a gentleman (or lady) and want to do the right thing. I've seen retiring executives at our company spend a few months…
