It was in the lower 40s this weekend and I saw lots of folks in tees and gym shorts at the grocery store. So never underestimate the ignorance of the common folk. I mean, you can't actually expect them to turn on the news or anything...

THIS is pretty awesome.

"We were a city of a million people and 500,000 snowmen."

That's what Ed Raedemarkers, managing editor of the defunct San Antonio Light, wrote more than 30 years when the Alamo City saw a record amount of snow.

Stay In Your Lane

 

[Bull Dozier]

Stay In Your Lane

How about if used sarcastically.?  I like to quote the tatoo artist from the commercial (I can't think of what they are selling at the moment).

pro-tip.

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

pro-tip.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

pro-tip.

PRO TIP:  There's no hyphen in between those two words.

 

[sublimeone]

You're misinterpreting the meaning. They are wishing you a safe trip home, not implying that you're a maniac driver that needs to be told to operate your vehicle safely.

 

[sublimeone]

PRO TIP:  There's no hyphen in between those two words.

Protip - the space isn't necessary either.

Unless pro-tip is a more technologically advanced form of Q-tip.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

You're misinterpreting the meaning. They are wishing you a safe trip home, not implying that you're a maniac driver that needs to be told to operate your vehicle safely.

Then maybe they should just say that.

 

[DallasDMac]

Then maybe they should just say that.

They are. "Drive safe" is just a shortened version of "Drive safely." How could that be construed as anything other than wishing you a safe trip home?  Seems like a truly odd thing to be bothered by.

 

[Mrs. Rannous]

I can't.

 

[Snoopy]

When it's snowy and people say "drive safe."  No....I think I'm going to drive like a maniac, thank you.

Then I say I am not driving a Brinks truck.  The  phrase is "Drive safely".

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Then I say I am not driving a Brinks truck.  The  phrase is "Drive safely".

The thing about a Brinks truck. I'm not surprised that they don't get hijacked more often. I just wonder how hard it is to screen out drivers who would ditch the truck and take off with the loot.

Clap Back

 

[rockaction]

Clap Back

Was just coming in here to post that exact phrase. When did clap back move away from a response with a gun to becoming something celebrities do when they put each other down? 

The Roots: We went to Millersville to get away from guns clapping

Us Magazine: DID YOU HEAR LADY GAGA CLAP BACK AT BRADLEY COOPER'S EX?????

eta* The term "clap back" was dead in 2004, when Ja Rule tried to use it to threaten 50 Cent. Ja Rule sucks. That's all you need to know about clapping back.
