Used to go to Florida more back when my aunt & uncle were alive and living there. Best time to go to Disney (if you don’t have to worry about kids’ school vacation) is a week or two before Thanksgiving week in Nov. Weather is nice and the parks are less crowded.

Is this the one where I’ve heard rumors about Taylor Swift playing Dazzler ? 😁 (not from any reliable source that I know of...)

$65,000. For a mid-sized pickup. And not even a reliable one like a Tacoma...

It has NOTHING to do with them being “White Boys”, it has to do with the fact that they are terminally brainless.

Got our CR-V Hybrid on sale at Honda Cars of McKinney (a small city just north of Dallas). They don’t always have stuff on sale, but they don’t add those odious dealer price adjustments. The RAV4 was nice, too...but they wanted thousands more than the CR-V, and the Honda dealership had them in stock.

Stopped at dozens of truck stops over the last few years and it’s plain that they don’t like non-truck drivers either. I’ll leave the Love’s and Flying J to the truckers, just gimme my Buc-ee’s on a road trip...

Hey! I’m “Generation Jones” (right between Boomers and GenX) and I like Taylor. Esp. because she seems like a genuinely good person. 

Been playing Fallout since the early 2010's. What I want is:

Just saw the perfect description of this thing on another social media platform (Threads maybe ? can’t remember):

Does this include Kei vans as well ?

...two-wheel drive (with an automatic limited-slip differential)

Accidental Fleshlight is gonna be the name of my next band...

Maybe. But I really liked the McDLT back in the day...

As an Austin native, I can confirm that P.Terry’s > Whataburger. 

Price’s Pimento Cheese (a very good brand) is avail at all the grocery stores I’ve shopped at in Texas. Or if you’re at Costco, they carry Palmetto brand which is also good.

Porsche “Guards Red” is always the answer.

Elizabeth, I’m usually a huge fan of your posts, but this one hits a bit...snobbish. I’m from Texas and that Tamale Pie is perfectly acceptable (though I’d leave out the bell pepper & olives, and add some diced, roasted New Mexico green chiles instead). The Newman’s Own is also a great marinade. Decades ago, when…
