Do people really confuse "and" with "an"? I've seen it too frequently to excuse it as typos.

/not here, of course

The Cleveland Cavaliers. Because of them, every good wing joint is filled with mouth breathing retards who are whooping and yelling every 35 seconds. I just wanted some fucking wings.

I took my daughter to Boston Pizza last week, and had to ask for one of the TVs to be changed to the hockey game. yes, in Canada.
there were about 5 people in the bar area watching basketball, and every 35 seconds this dude went nuts. It caught me way too often glancing up at the screen to see what I missed in the hockey game.

Why were there people screaming and reacting? The game wasn't even a contest.

People don't watch basketball for the game or contest, they watch it for the showboating individual plays.

/every 35 seconds, apparently

Well, this is just fantastic. The computer I use to collect data in my lab won't turn on. The thing is ancient, so I'm not surprised, but it's really hard to do my job when the computer with the data collection program doesn't work.

Are you sure you didn't break it yourself by overusing the built-in cupholder, or pressing the "any" key too many times?

Wait a second - If your computer won't turn on, how were you able to post the above? Is this some kind of weird science trick?

I have my laptop with me so I can work on a presentation while I collect data. But now it looks like that plan has changed.

People who drive the speed limit or 5 over in the fast lane, and then couple skate with the car next to them in the slow lane... therefore becoming the mandatory pace car for the highway.

If you're in the fast lane and the person behind you wants to do 10-20 over, it isn't your job to police their highway activity. Please move out of the damn way!:tsk:

Law enforcement would collect so much more revenue by ticketing those who cruise in the left lane than they do via speeding violations and it would have the added benefit of improving overall traffic flow.

The left lane is a passing lane, period. Unless volume dictates that the lane is needed to ensure adequate capacity there is no reason anybody, no matter how fast they're going, should be driving in that lane.

I've become quite skilled with Italian hand gestures and creative cursing. :)
Which is only a problem when I'm on the phone with my Grandma.

I also don't get those who are coming onto the highway and have a yield sign... They see you coming, with no cars behind you, yet pull out like they're going to blast off into space but only get up to 35 mph. WTH???
