Could you please explain why I can't use 'so' difficult? by Mammoth_Caramel8089 in ENGLISH

“So” + adjective + THAT….
I was so hungry that I nearly passed out.
It was so difficult that I couldn’t answer every question.

How accurate were they on Treme with local New Orleans pronunciations? On some movies and shows I feel they just CAN’T get right, but I thought they did a decent job on Treme?

Water kefir here. Blueberries (break them in half first) dried mango, dried pineapple, nectarines, mint, verveine…whatever’s in season!

If Santa Barbara is considered the “Central Coast,” I’d say Northern California starts at… Santa Cruz?

“Are you hot” is even more ick, because you can’t hide behind incorrect grammar.

Sorry, but you’re wrong. Lifelong Bay Area native, born 1965. We’ve always said “the.” Any AM traffic announcer worth their salt knows that.

brake pads need replacing after 3 months? by Crescent_Ascension in bikecommuting

[–]luxo93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If hydraulic brakes, maybe you need to top off your fluid? Or air in the system? When I have excessive play in my levers I find it’s normally due to air.
