God help me I always enjoyed Carrey in this. I actually think it’s Tommy Lee Jones who was bad - he was badly miscast and/or badly used. Two-Face in this movie either needed to be the straight man to the Riddler or be manic in a different way. Instead TLJ keeps trying to match Carrey’s energy, and it’s sometimes

When this happens I sometimes wonder if one us doesn’t have a faulty cruise control.

I maintain that Starbucks is actually in the dairy drink business, not the coffee business.  

Starbucks is disgusting. Tastes like someone brewed bitter tree bark and then threw ashes in it. No thanks.

Could have been nickleback.

This guy had THAT habit of varying their speed a good 25+ on the highway without any context to driving conditions and bad habit sitting in the left lane. So on a 70mph stretch of highway he would ebb and flow from about 60mph to 85mph+ randomly.

But then I don’t understand the whole Starbucks culture. Sure, I’ll drink their mocha once in awhile, but no over-roasted, overpriced and sugary drink they sell is worth sitting in a drive-thru line that wraps around their building; which is what you usually see at a Starbucks. I guess maybe Starbucks is some people’s

The person with the 46 dollar order is certainly getting something for free.

... and if you’re in a line of 36 pay-it-forwards, nobody except the last guy is getting anything for free. You’re just paying for a different order than your own. That’s not charity. But then I don’t understand the whole Starbucks culture. Sure, I’ll drink their mocha once in awhile, but no over-roasted, overpriced an

I basically vetoed him driving and it nearly ended a friendship but living was more important.”

I once worked an overnight manual labor shift putting up crowd control bollards for a marathon event through downtown San Jose on Thanksgiving day. Then decided to make the 4 hour drive home to Lake Tahoe to try to have dinner with my family. Running on no sleep, I fell asleep at the wheel about 2 hrs into the drive

I went on a few trips with someone back in the days of portable cd players plugged into cassette adapters. His preferred way of listening to cds was to put the player on single track repeat and manually switch tracks when he got bored of the song. Usually after a half hour or so.

Honestly, could have been much worse. Could have been a cassingle!

I once drove from New England to a wedding in Wisconsin with a couple who were on their way to an eventual break up.   Need I say more? 

Zoidberg agrees

I once had to go on a trip with a loud eater.

In high school, a few of us drove down to Key West. We took my car, a 1990 Ford Thunderbird with a tape deck. All my friends brought CDs, and I had one of those tape player aux input things and a discman. The discman crapped out about an hour into the trip. No problem, it’s south Florida, so there are lots of radios

Hmmm, a college roommate whose car we took from Virginia to Florida for spring break (mostly because it was a soft Buick, which was perfect for a long haul down I95). I did almost say “the I95" just to trigger everyone.
