I know, but I have absolutely zero memory of it. "Speed Zone," however, is burned into my brain. I actually don't really remember that much about the original, to be honest. It was already the poor man's Smokey and the Bandit.

I abandoned all non-anonymous social media almost a decade ago. I knew it was garbage/a net negative for years before that, but it is tough to get rid of.

1. Exercise your pelvic floor (squeeze the "stop peeing" muscles) 2. Make sure your blood pressure is straight 3. Ask your doctor if any of the medications you take have potential effects on your junk 4. (This was big for me) Change your schedule. By the end of the day I'm exhausted and all my Adderall has worn off so I can barely concentrate enough to remember my own name. I lucked out that she has a 1-3PM gap in her day during the week and I can usually move my schedule around enough to accommodate that. Absolute game changer.

I love both of my parents immensely, but I am extremely grateful that they have the resources to live wherever they want no matter what their eventual needs are because one of us would absolutely murder the other if we had to live together.

In England, it was common to make jokes about the Irish, saying they were thick. (Not now) Does this apply in the USA by state? Which states are normally at the butt end of the joke and why?

Yeah, if only the poor people from barren wastelands like Louisiana and Mississippi had been born in the verdant plains of Utah or New Hampshire instead, the top and bottom of the "states by poverty" list might be reversed!

If I see a woman who appears to be by herself or just with other women, I will usually stop. Same thing if it's an elderly couple. I suppose I would stop for a dude if it were somewhere particularly isolated or dangerous, but I don't feel bad about not stopping anymore now that everybody has a phone.

I made a bunch of money in the late 90s selling stuff on EBay (and similar sites) and drop-shipping it from some shady Chinese distributor. I remember there was this one particular folding utility trailer (the kind you tow behind your vehicle) that I could get for $399. I would run an auction wth a reserve of $500 and every single time it would sell for much more, like even getting up over $1,000 a few times. I would make some specific, but high, shipping fee "due to it being so large heavy," but the company I drop-shipped from had some deal where they could send it for $20. So I would end up getting like $750 for the trailer plus $112.59 (or whatever) for shipping when my total cost was $419. I bet I did at least 100 of those.
