I am going Knoxville to Orange County which is a good sized flight. My layover is in DFW which I have been assured is one of the better options (definitely better than Atlanta or Chicago) for someone who doesn't know what they're doing. I guess I'll figure out pretty quick if I have a fear of flying.
Every time one of you kids gets a pair of big boy pants, a Fugazi song gets played in my house.
oh yes. they sure do. but be sure to let them fully cool down first!
I bet the external temp of the bread can be quite deceiving and then you get surprised with a fried tongue when you get to the boiling cheese in the center. I'll have to find some of these mythical munchies asap
that drunk anticipation can be hard to tame sometimes!
True story: My wife got a raise at work a few weeks ago. She texted me to tell me the news and added to go get myself something nice. I totally went to the market and bought $20 worth of Hot Pockets.
It. Was. Glorious.
"To the market?" What are you, a little piggy? Or is that one of those terms that is very geographically context dependent (grocery store v market), in terms of what word is commonly used to refer to the same thing - like how some weirdos in the middle of our country say "pop" instead of "soda?"
I can only speak as someone living in Massachusetts, but I use "go to the market" as well. I very rarely will use the term grocery store, if at all really. If I need my fiance to get milk, I'd say "Can you pick up some milk at the market?" Saying "at the grocery store" just seems longer than needed.
I started out today intending to listen to some new albums for the month. But first I wanted to listen to a Ryan Adams album. I never got around to going to something different, so now every Ryan Adams album from Love is Hell to Heartbreaker has played straight through. And I'm ok with that.

"Store", to me, refers to a vast number of places but very limited in where I can purchase Hot Pockets. I hate "Supermarket". I do mix and match my regionalisms, too. I say things like "Coke" when referring to a soda and "Wicked Good" when I'm excited about something. It probably has more to do with that than anything else, honestly.

Fucking Massachusetts, man....
That's bizarre.
Let's talk roads: highway vs. freeway vs. expressway vs. turnpike??
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
my first time ever flying was a solo cross country flight to San Diego to see one of my besties 5 years ago. It was awesome.
It also helped me conquer my fear of flying.

I've never not been in a tiny ass plane arriving to/leaving the knoxville airport - so good luck with that.
fuck. my flight into knoxville for roo was the worst flight ever. tiniest plane I've ever been on. it was only a 45-minute flight from charlotte, but we had to sit in the plane for well over an hour while they tried to figure out how to load all of our luggage (wasn't enough space because it was THAT small). and of course I was sitting next to a very very large (but nice!) woman. like, these seats were so small *I* didn't even have enough leg room.

I say market, but I also say that I'm going to make groceries...
EDIT: I say grocery store, not market. I don't know what I was thinking for a second. I blame it on the long ass wait for this hot pocket.

turnpike's have tolls, a highway can be any major state or federal numbered roadway, where I think a freeway must have on/off ramps and no intersections. I think people use the term highway a lot of times when freeway is actual the better term.
No idea about expressway though, we have them, don't know why they have a different name.

Meanwhile, I live 45 minutes away from Katy and I have never heard the term market in that way.

Highway all the way, but an hour in any direction will get you D. All of the above.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

No idea about expressway though, we have them, don't know why they have a different name.
Then let's talk letting someone merge into your lane of traffic. Do you feel they're taking something from you? That it shows weakness? That karma stops at the Connecticut border?

Interstate, highway, expressway.
I drive on the interstate to go to work. I have to take the highway to go to my mom's and the Westbank Expressway takes to you to the Huey P. bridge.

That would involve me driving in the slow lane to begin with.

If you live on the Westbank (like I do) and have to drive to the CBD or French Quarter, you have to go across the tollbooth that is no longer there. ALL lanes have to merge. Nobody here likes or knows how to merge properly. It is the bane of my existence on the mornings there is traffic.

This has a few good ones shown, in terms of discrepancy region to region on how to pronounce words/what word to use for the same thing.
Lol at only Texas and D.C. pronouncing "bowie knife" differently from the rest of America. That's quite random.
I actually have no idea what a bowie knife is.
My roommate in college (from Long Island going to school in CT), used to think it was hysterical how we all pronounced marry, Mary, merry differently (and similarly ferry, fairy). She used to try to teach us how to say them differently... no dice.

have fun!!
I already looked it up. Each way, tiny plane Knoxville - Dallas then bigger jet Dallas - OC.
The rotary things is spot on though. I thought people were joking the summer I lived in Alaska and they called it a round-a-bout, and even more surprised when they told me they had no idea what a rotary was.
Hell, if rotary is wrong, I don't want to be right.
