Cold cuts are a no from me - too unhealthy.

Interesting! I think central, north, and south Jersey all have some distinctions in accent. Plus I think a lot of people have a pretty stereotyped idea of what New Jerseyans are “supposed” to sound like haha

Ringtone? My dude, the only people I know who have their ringer volume on are all in their seventies.

Merry is like “meh” + “ree”

Mary rhymes with fairy

No thank you! That one really bothers me for some reason.

Same as “eltse” for else, “foe-ward” for forward, “warsh” for wash, and “ayggs” for eggs.

And some people say “heighth” for height and I swear it’s just to fuck with me.

You from NJ?

I’m from NJ and Murray, merry, marry, and Mary are all distinct.

Berry is like merry and bury is like Murray.

I’ve lived in Philly and then the suburbs for a couple of decades now and have never noticed the berry-bury thing - I’m guessing it’s a South Philly thing? So do you eat straw’bury’s or do you ‘berry’ your dead pets?

Seer-shuh I think

Glaw-stuh-shur, correct?

I swear this man is a gift from god herself

Cat Stevens - Wild World

Sugar has it all figured out!

Honestly Mr Slater can get it. I always thought he was hot but then came Mr. Robot and I was like ‘yes please’!

Haha this is why I pick a DoubleTree whenever I can!

RadioShack, with the drawers of capacitors and resistors.

Chia seeds

No fucking thanks. These machines are disgusting bacteria farms.

Throw people in jail for driving too fast? That seems pretty extreme.

It’s hard to police speeding on a highway. Typically if you do get pulled over for speeding, it’s because you’re going way faster than those around you. So even in a 55, if everyone’s doing 80, you’ve gotta be doing 95 or more for a cop to single you out and arrest you. (Or maybe the cop has a quota to meet.) And where I live, local cops can’t use radar, so it’s hard to prove how fast you were going.

And then if you do get arrested, you’re most likely to get a ticket and points on your license. Get enough points and they’ll take away your license, but that means you’ve been caught repeatedly. And points expire eventually, plus if you go to your court date and plead not guilty, a lot of the time the judge will just remove the points. So a speeding ticket from years ago generally won’t have any bearing on your life except for the cost of the ticket.

So within reason, you can pretty much speed all the time consequence-free ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yep! That was the first qntm book I read.
