Only two people need to have a stick up their ass about proper use of rate of speed.

It's an understood colloquialism. We all know what it means and accept it for that. Sorry you don't likey, but I do. We're not all gonna agree in this higgledy piggledy (another colloquialism) world we live in. Carry on!

"and writers (of all people) should know better" No, physicists should know better. Writers know about things like grammar and spelling. There is no grammar or spelling mistake in 'rate of speed'. 'Rate of speed' is a commonly used colloquialism, and you need to get the hell over it.

Travis, I appreciate the sentiment and agree with pretty much your entire argument. I never actually understood the SUV hate. As enthusiasts, we are constantly telling people that they should drive something "fun and engaging". Using the definition of "fun and engaging" very loosely, it can be taken to mean…

I couldn't agree with the sentiment in this article more.

News flash to the news flash: I already know all of that. But that was a VERY thorough explanation of exactly what is happening, and why what you see on TV is so utterly ridiculous as to cause me to go into convulsions, giggling like a little school girl, every time they do that. (I have my degree in photography)

This is your opportunity to shed your land-locked shackles and journey to a coastal land where people matter. Haven't you ever wanted to awaken to the fog and the crisp salty air? Must you truly be forever a slave to flyover purgatory and looking up at the planes go by wondering, "Maybe that one is going to New York…

As the husband of someone who ate bad mussels once 15 years ago and will never touch them again (it seems to be a form of food poisoning unlike any other), this is a good time to bring up one of Anthony Bourdain's rules: never eat mussels unless you personally know how they were stored & prepared.

Basically children just get more expensive and stressful until they are teenagers and you realize that you literally cannot afford to send them to college at which point a mental clock starts counting down until the inevitable day on which THEY realize you cannot afford to send them to college.

Brad's real question was: Is there any way for me to be an asshole without looking like an asshole?

You must be new here

You're a loser. Mature individuals don't feel the need to beat up some drunken idiot if it can be avoided. You're the type of person regular people don't actually believe exist until they see one.
