So if we live in places with refineries, we have lousy gas because they keep the good stuff to sell elsewhere?

Why does "hyphenated" not have a hyphen, but "non-hyphenated" does?

 

Mind-blown...

Over half of all the vehicles driving without their lights on in a rainstorm will be silver (or a variant of.)

The other half have their HAZARD FLASHERS on.

FTFY.

I've said that for years. People get upset when I call their F150 a Crown Vic.  If you think about it, a New Yorker is more of a truck than a new Ram, because it has leaf springs.

I look at how they're driving it.  They sure aren't doing much serious truck stuff with a 4' long bed with a permanently attached cover.

There has to be a lot of REALLY dope og jordans and forces and stuff sitting in prison inventories for dudes that got locked up back in the 80s and early 90s. 

But the second you drove to the hoop the soles would fall off. The glue ages and fails, I had these bad box stock retro bred 11s I bought in '01(?) that the right sole fell off of, dang it.

Shelf queens at that point. If I had og ones- they'd get sold to a big player before I ever touched em.

You leave a dump. If you actually took a dump somewhere,  you'd be labeled a sicko.

I mean, if I'm growing a tail and I run to the bathroom, I'm technically taking it with me and leaving it there, as opposed to just steamin a chud on the carpet. 

Also, I love colorful euphemisms for pooping.

This is part of why I love the people behind Epic Rap Battles of History as much as a man can heterosexually love a group of other men.

Picture it: ERBoH: Theodore Roosevelt vs. Winston Churchill.  One of my favorites.  Towards the end, Teddy smacks out the line "TR giving WC the full deuce!" while holding two fingers up, in the manner that means an American middle finger.  There is so much, SO MUCH, happening in that one line (WC also means "water closet", I'll let you go from there) that it gives my nerd-brain a geek-boner.

Does anyone else go around pretending to be BANE these days.

Behind the mask in best Tom Hardy/Sean Connery voice "Hello Batman, it's Bane. You're a girl."

YESH.

And then I have thoughts of strawberries.  Strawberries are a good source of fiber.

The only constant in all of your failed relationships is you.

It's still in you at that point. It is not yet a dump. It's just poop. 

Coconuts are mammals because they're covered in fur and produce milk.

Huh?? I've lived in Texas my whole life and haven't  seen 90 octane for yearrrsss. Recently only seen it at quick trips as a non ethanol blend. 

The gas you buy is about 6 months old by the time you buy it. Why do gas prices change instantaneously with any and every abnormality? 

You can drink a drink but you can't food a food.

It also has a graph like Mount Washington:  vertical cliff on the up side, gentle slope on the down side.

I had not thought of the CV comparison, but SO true! I have a hitch on my panther, and guarantee I normally haul more with it than most mall crawlers.
