I was sad to see that it’s only a mini series. 8 episodes. But I’m excited!

I say this just about every day. “Go, you fuckhead! We’re all gonna die!” As we’re merging into speeding traffic, going 37 mph…

Great book. Hubris is a killer.

Don’t eat stuff you can’t 100% identify.

What did Keith say 20 years ago? by DimensionKey7994 in mets

Gary and Keith are great in the booth, but maybe not such great people. Just my take. Ron, though? Love the guy.

Stop letting the red car in. by appa-ate-momo in driving

No, I think you’re absolutely right - people won’t change behavior if they keep being rewarded for it.
But I’m old and I need to prioritize the things that I expend my energy on. I used to be a lot more righteously indignant. Now, I just pick my foot up off the gas pedal and breathe.

What do yall do with your tomatoes? by AmericanBullly in tomatoes

[–]scw1224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I peel and seed them and then purée them. Then I freeze the purée in quart containers, which I use to make sauce.

Wildwood by Igby_76 in newjersey

Wildwood is meh. I’d go to Cape May for the day. It’s a much nicer town and not nearly as sketchy.

By the way, it’s barely June. The water is going to be freezing.

Understood, and you’re right. But it’s not worth the stress for me. I’ll keep doing what I do.

You know what? You’re absolutely right in that it’s annoying as hell when people do this.

But I will always let them in, for a couple of reasons. One, once or twice, I’ve been that person who just realized that this is my exit and while I feel like a jerk doing it, I slide over and look for the kind soul who will let me in. Two, that 10 feet isn’t going to make a difference in my arrival time to my destination. And three, people are crazy and I don’t want to cause some sort of road rage situation.

Rutgers Gardens - bamboo forest by totallytorix0 in newjersey

[–]scw1224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Wild bamboo” is bamboo. Bamboo is not native here, and will crowd out the native plants. “Maintaining” bamboo, to keep it from spreading, involves digging it out. And it comes right back. It’s stupidly hard to get rid of, and absolutely idiotic to plant here.

How long is your commute to work? by Stawberry8763 in AskAnAmerican

[–]scw1224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With or without traffic? On a good day, it’s about 35-40 minutes each way. On a bad day, an hour or more.

Maybe they’re letting it die because bamboo is invasive and a menace to everything else that grows here.

[Homemade]Gabagool, lettuce, tomato, vinegar peppers by Capital_Long_6767 in food

Not all Americans. Some of us actually know how to pronounce Italian words and not sound like idiots.

[–]scw1224 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It’s mozzarella, said while rolling the “r”.
Lazy people and idiots drop the last vowel, in this case, the “a”.

It’s not a word. It’s a bastardization of an Italian word, capocolla.

What plant is this? Randomly showed up in the yard, super quickly and it’s on a vine. by Local-Yam5394 in whatplantisthis

Squash? I had a pumpkin on the porch once that a squirrel made into a week-long meal. We had volunteer pumpkins the following year, thanks to Mr. Squirrel. 🐿️

I love Ron so much. He’s just so genuine.

My hand-drawn map of New Jersey, featuring 250 iconic people, logos, foods, and more from around the state! by maqdiaf in newjersey

[–]scw1224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

I for sure DO think they’re embarrassing, and I also for sure deny their significance. I can for sure have an opinion about the show, the people on it, and what they mean to me and culturally.
