Vehicle engine auto start-stop systems.

Saying "I mean,..."

Using periods between words for emphasis. Drives. Me. Nuts.

"___ is a vibe."

Women's wide, flat brim felt hats. Maybe just all flat brim hats in general.

"Student-athletes" that can't form complete sentences or go more than a few words without saying "like".

It would be great if people that represent the university could not come across as functional illiterates.

An interview I heard on the radio today was cringe inducing.

Mmm-hmm, people who are different are scary


No, not these people. They're not scary. They're a lot of things, but scary isn't one of them -- except when one considers the future (I exclude the gays who otherwise are as regular and boring as the rest of us).

If I were a lawmaker, I would definitely make it a law that everyone has to back in to parking spots. If you can't, no DL for you.

If it's handled by lawmakers it'll be angled spots, and only angled spots that you have to back into.

Because anyone behind them has to stop and wait for them to crawl into the parking place, most of the time taking an extra 2 or 3 attempts to straighten out because they're in something way bigger than they can handle.

Exactly.

To back in, they have to pull into the on-coming traffic side of the parking lot aisle (stopping traffic in both directions), stop, put it in reverse, slowly creep backwards into the spot, in most cases they then have to stop, put it in drive, pull forward again, stop, put it in reverse, and slowly back into the spot again. Sometimes, they have to go one more time.

Meanwhile, everyone else in the parking lot has to stop what they're doing and wait on this guy to waste 30 seconds doing what takes most of us one second to do.

It's not really about the time this person is wasting for every other driver in the parking lot, it's the inconsiderate nature of it all...or the idea that this person is completely oblivious to the rest of the world around them.


If they park 'nose in' like most people do, they have to do the exact same thing when they back out to leave. Every parking method in a space you can't pull through involves putting the vehicle in reverse. Others have to wait going in or going out. Waiting for people to get in or out of a parking space is just part of dealing with parking.

If you don't want to wait, parking further away where nobody else is parked is the solution. There are times where the lot is completely full, but it's not the norm.


Backing out of a parking spot into a wide aisle is easier than backing into a narrow parking spot especially in a garage trying to navigate between other vehicles and concrete poles.

Also, back in parkers have to pull past the spot they want, which causes confusion and blocks traffic if cars following behind don't know that's what they intend to do and by the time it's clear they are blocking the spot.

Women should just stop it with the high waist jeans/shorts. That crap never looked good, and looks even worse now. If you have a crappy midriff or a muffin top wear a shirt to cover it. Or not. But please stop with the bottoms that look like something Steve Urkel would wear.

She's married to some guy so it's not like that stuff is scaring any future partner away but still

I used to think the same thing but I've kind of changed my mind with the most recent wave of high waist being back in style. I've seen it look really cute on some girls. But this may just be proof that a pretty girl is a pretty girl no matter what she's wearing.

However, it does make me sad for high school guys who don't get to have the thrill of a hot girl sitting down in front of you in class in some low rise jeans and the top of her thong stick out a little bit. That was better than hitting the lottery for me when I was in high school lol

Once, I was conversing with a speaker at a McDonald's.

After I placed the order, the voice said: "Drive around please."

I asked: "For how long?"

The world record for the most miles in a vehicle is over a million and on a Toyota Tacoma. The Japanese purchased it back from the owner to study it and it is now in a museum in Japan
