I prefer self checkout at this point.  The cashiers at Target and the local grocery stores are all so new they don’t have a clue how to bag groceries correctly.  It is worth the hassle of doing it myself to make sure my bread and eggs survive the trip home.

Why do people cruise? Well, it was, and probably still is, one of the least expensive ways to travel on a per-person basis. I’ve only taken one cruise to Alaska because it was one of the only practical ways of visiting a bunch of places only readily accessible by sea, and I have no desire to do it again any time soon,…

I agree with most everything except the positions of the early Thor movies and the Captain America sequels need to be reversed. The Thor movies are seriously underappreciated and the Captain America sequels are bland and repetitive in their stories. IMHO Captain America in general suffers from the same kind of…

Three problems presented by this situation:

You may have missed I used the word “also” between the two things you somehow equated. If you are unfamiliar with also, it means, “in addition, besides, likewise, in a like manner.”

Must be all the new EVs and gigantic trucks I see on the road around here. Also, the fact that all companies are shipping is top trim levels. My dad recently purchased his leased 2018 Subaru Forester because the only new Forester he could get to lease was over $40k. Luckily for him, the residual value of the 2018 was…

Sure sounds like a good way to lose viewership.

Deep down, I expected this race to suck.  No wheels have turned yet on the course, yet I am already starting to feel vindicated in my expectation.  Miami was terrible.  What criteria is F1/Liberty using to choose these locations?  Incidence of STD contraction?

In what way is coconut part of a traditional Norwegian food?  Also, Frozen Ever After is an abomination.  Disney has ruined EPCOT beyond repair.

The ridiculousness of Chris Pratt getting paid more than his co-start aside, can we all agree they are both way overpaid for what they do? I mean, getting paid to deal with the unending and sometimes unwanted attention that comes with stardom is one thing, but pretending either of their performances rates that kind of…

I see Romain is back on form as a wrecking ball. Just like Laguna Seca last year, he seems to think Indy cars are sturdy enough to just bang his way though the field. Yeah, Rossi takes some blame, Grosjean, was trying impossible passes two laps in a row which led to two collisions. That sounds a lot like the old Haas…

Why on earth is the V60 $20k more than the S60?  I’ll admit, it is a much more attractive vehicle, but not 42% more so.

Please re-read this passage, and then re-write it: “...recently introduced not too long ago, this Tuscon...”  As opposed to the recently introduced long ago Tuscon?

IMHO, as a resident of NC, they should at least charge a tax on the users of “free” chargers provided by governments to fund highway maintenance.

After years of bad experiences on Delta (lost bags, cancelled flights, inexplicable delays, etc.), the last couple of times I’ve had to fly with them, they have been pretty decent.  I can also say the same for United.  I used to prefer American, but those days are long gone.

I must be driving the wrong cars. Are there really ones out there with tech that is “helpful and user-friendly?” From what I can tell, car tech peaked in those categories about a decade ago, assuming they aren’t referring to CarPlay or Android Auto.

My biggest reason for not buying an BEV so far has been charging infrastructure.  I have heard horror stories from a number of friends who have traveled with their Teslas.  Long lines, out of order chargers, and slow charging times at non-Telsa locations make a BEV impractical for someone who travels by car…

Yeah.  The reduced exercise coupled with the huge soda consumption was likely 99% of the problem with his stupid experiment.

It is used whenever they need some revenue or want to pull you over for something and need an excuse. I know a few people who have been cited. Only one person claimed the cop was looking for something more than a quick money grab, but I am sure it happens all the time.

I was just annoyed that they didn’t build a real pool to put the boats in. Instead we got the kind of theming you could find at a state fair.  It was just hokey and not up to F1 standards.  Of course the police escort and football helmets were way sillier.
