That can only mean a torrential downpour is imminent and I must hit the brakes!!!" I'm on the highway and my exit is coming up in four miles? BETTER SLOW THE gently caress DOWN TO TWENTY BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT DURING PEAK HOURS

Sunswipe posted:Mate at college kept insisting I needed to watch Fight Club, eventually bringing a copy in with him and handing it to me. It sat in the bottom of my bag for about two months, with him asking every few days "Have you watched it yet?" Nope. Not interested. Watched Commando again last night. I loving love Game of Thrones but holy poo poo don't I ever know what you mean here. The more somebody insists that I need to see something, the more put off I am. Even if it's something I'm likely to enjoy. Suggest it once and maybe I'll get around to it. Hounding me constantly is the best way to be sure I'll never watch it. I'm not going to be harassed into watching a TV show.

Norfolk's airport is ORF, and apparently they embrace it and "take ORF" is a slogan they use. At least BOS and PVD are fairly intuitive with regard to where they are. Although PVD is actually in Warwick, not Providence, because ???

It has nothing to do with people not liking sports and everything to do with people being insufferable dorks about it. It's the hurf durf sportsball bullshit, the "don't say 'we' if you're not actually on the team" nerdsplaining, the "why would you want to watch someone else play a game" disingenuous garbage. Because it's entertaining to watch people do something that they're good at! Disclaimer: I'm not a butthurt sports fan, I'm actually a giant nerd who plays Overwatch but the whole nerd circlejerk thing of making a huge show of how much you don't care about sports is obnoxious and fits into this thread. I don't give a poo poo if you don't enjoy the same hobbies as someone else, just don't be a loving jackass about it.

om nom nom posted:My all time favorite allergy lie was when a woman ordered a caprese pasta that was topped with chiffonade basil. "I have a chiffonade allergy, please make sure there isn't any near my food." She probably got food poisoning from something and "chiffonade" was the only unfamiliar word so she decided she must be allergic to it.

Nostradingus posted:There's a handful of goon words and phrases that drive me up the wall just because of how overused they are. Over/under is among them. Same with "milquetoast" and the dozens of ~wacky~ misspellings of "schadenfreude." Oh, and "namaste." That is annoying but so is the phenomenon of people getting all weird about goons using certain words and phrases "wrong". Like Dunning-Kruger effect. Do goons get a little too trigger happy with that one? Sure, but I've never seen them use it wrong, just a bit too eagerly.

Like "Pepsodent Professional" as if there are professional tooth brushers and all that Elmex poo poo is for amateurs? as someone who enjoys video games but is not a human garbage scow imagine what it's like playing with these people when there's a woman on the team

veni veni veni posted:TBH I've been surprised at how little of this I've seen in the years I've played games. I even have a tendency to pop in to random parties that pubs invite me to and its not uncommon for a woman to be in there and I've yet to really see any obnoxious sexism. Even if the party ends up being a bunch of annoying gamer bros. There is actually surprisingly little of it in Overwatch, and a lot of women play it. The poo poo you do see is the angry shitlords who think they're gods at the game and rage at their teams for every mistake, major or minor, real or imagined.
