She’s a Tikky-Takker.   Everything else aside, that right there is prima facie proof that we’re not talking about the brightest bulb in the chandelier.

I was born and raised in a city of approximately 50K people, and now live in a rural community of around 700 people. When I go on vacation, I’m going somewhere to refresh and renew myself, not be cooped up in a huge hotel-on-a-barge with up to 5000 others ‘vacationers’ all fighting for a place at the casino or the…

Most cyclists already do own cars or trucks ... we just occasionally choose to park them and use our bikes once in a while.

Let me see if I’ve got this straight.  You take a pickup truck and then mess with and make totally useless the one thing (the cargo bed) that makes it a pickup truck.  And all in the name of ???

Unsaid: “And I’m black, so you gotta pick me or be forever labeled as not woke.”

And here I always thought 40s of St. Ides or Olde English were about the blackest thing ever. This is just a pothead rambling on about being stoned. Ain’t no blackness about that no way.

I’ve been doing this ever since I started working from home during the COVID crisis. Instead of using my half-hour lunch break to cook up a cup of ramen or munch down an unneeded sandwich, I just slide into bed and set my alarm clock for about 25 minutes of shut-eye.

It was mentioned that some of the American cancellations could possibly be explained by the labor dispute between the airline and the mechanics union. It might be nice to know the reason for those other cancellations. Were they done because of weather or conditions at the endpoint; ergo, safety reasons? I would tend…

Zombies eat brains.

The plight of the adjuncts reminds me of a cross between human trafficking and slavery. These people are being treated not as faculty, not as educators, not even as human beings ... but like a consumable, easily-replaceable resource on a par with a ballpoint pen or a dry-erase whiteboard.

“There’s a unifying thread that draws them to their work at the shop....”

It's a long-wheelbase conversion van, probably based on an 11-passenger van like the old Ford Club Wagons (although from the taillights I'd say they used a GM Express 3500 extended wheelbase van as the starting point). Nothing unusual about that; there's an entire industry devoted to taking ordinary vans and tricking…

Biggest problem I can see with this place was that it appears uncontrolled and overcrowded. If someone gets stuck or falls off their inner tube, four other people pile into him.

But they don't, so learn to live with it.

Or just buy one of these:

Big deal. They can have Midol sponsor the race and call it the PMS 500 for all I care about it. I've got better things to do on a Sunday afternoon than watch forty-some guys (and maybe a chick) drive single file and make left turns for three hours.

Racing makes my Dick Trickle. Actual bumper sticker seen in and around Wisconsin back in the middle 1990s.

Absolutely it was. The game was called "football", not "patty-cake", and these guys were a bunch of relatively no-name "Grabowskis" (a term coined by Mike Ditka, a Grabowski himself). But when you start paying hundreds of thousands of dollars a year for a second-string down lineman, let along the megabucks it would…

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, Meredith, and thank you for sharing yours. But remember — opinions are like assholes; everyone has one, and they usually stink.

No, bitch, you didn't "donate" your ovum; donating something means that you give it with no expectation of remuneration or other quid pro quo. You flat out sold them for $4500, just the way you would sell a used car or outgrown clothing.
