How can a hair brush sell for $59.99? Even an electric one. Especially when the regular one is only half that price. "Professional" justifies double the price? That would explain some provider pricing.

You can actually buy US Postage stamps at a discount. BJs, for instance sells a pack of $47 worth for only $46.75. So you save a quarter. Big whoop. (A fine example of a rave and a rant, if I do say so myself.)

Stamps at BJ's. Does that mean I can get BJ's at the post office?

 

[Mr. Wiggley]

Not a rant or a rave, more of a question. Does anyone else watch the Price is Right and imagine a threesome with the two girls?

 

[Banacek]

I like that you guys are embracing this!

Question. When was the last time Stripy shirt did a review? ( or for that matter got laid)

 

[Banacek]

It has been a loooong time. I reported on my last conquest many months ago. I'm not holding out, if that's what you're thinking.
I put all the money I make from working here in the Utopia Guide pension plan, but Slinky keeps investing it in AMPs that go belly up. As soon as he finds a winner, I'll make a withdrawl and deposit something other than my money.

Is there another reason to watch?

We all willingly violated Erisa at the company holiday party after she said she was okay with it. Best yearly bonus we ever received.

Get off the sidewalk

Drive faster

Nah - that will just make the situation more dangerous as they still will be tailgating but now you are both going faster.
Best way I have found to get rid of tailgaters is to drive slower - they go crazy and find a way to pass you (not kidding).

Don't hit the brake that's dangerous. I just take my foot off the gas and when I'm at about 35 they figure out I'm fucking with them.

 

[Banacek]

Now you're just funnin' with us, Wiggs. Admit it. You drive 35 'cause you're a senior and old farts drive slow. Hope you're a right lane guy and not that guy in the middle lane with cars going around you on both sides.

I hate NYC midtown in the rain. There should be a spacial awareness test people have to take before they are allowed to carry an umbrella. Additionally in order to carry an oversized umbrella you have to have scored perfect marks on the test. I'm surprised I have not lost both eyes.

 

[Waterclone]

Yeah, I'm always dumbfounded by people who don't know the rule, the bigger the umbrella, the higher you raise it when it gets crowded.
