This drives me crazy. The containers are a gallon, but every car I've ever owned has a reservoir that holds like .9 gallon.

IB4 you should be filling the reservoir before you run out of wiper fluid.
I can throw a full gallon into my Legacy and still probably have room for that 10%

I'll go one further and say I don't like women in boots, ever. Therefore I find recent fashion trends troubling.

Disagree. I really like that knee high leather boot with a skirt look. It says "sure, I'm a slut, but I'm a CLASSY slut". And that's what I go for... Classy sluts...

Those "ugly boots" keep our feet and lower legs warm, and they're UBER comfortable. It has nothing to do with actual snow on the ground or a fashion trend.

(at least not for me.)

I like the boots and if there is anything I know, it's about fashion. and if theres one thing I don't know about, apparently it's fashion. Over the weekend I found a picture of me back in High School with my leather pants and a bandana tied around one of my cowboy boots? Sometimes, I'm amazed that I'm married and have 3 kids...

I, too, wear a bandana around my leg on occasion, Some of the classy, um, young ladies :wink: , liked it others didn't. So in general I'm not too hard on kids today for what they wear, beacuse at one point in my life I was a fashion idiot too.

Hahah, yeah I was gonna say, I'm a fan of the 'Jeans or yoga pants tucked into the boot' look that winter brings along.

I'm just a fan of yoga pants in general. Footwear is irrelevant.

Not a big fan of getting a sandwich that isn't properly cut in half. If its a good sandwich and you eat the big half first and your ticked off because you only have the small half left.

People that argue that they'd rather be too cold then too hot with the argument that you can take layers off when you're warm.

So your argument is then that you like the temperature to be too cold rather than too warm. Not that you would rather be too cold than too warm.

I would much prefer cold weather to overly warm weather, but if given the choice between being too cold and too warm, i'm taking too warm every time. Cold is painful, warm is discomfort.

Actually...I think i've sufficiently justified my point. It is entirely rational.

As what is known, technically speaking, as a “big fat guy” (or to be politically correct, an “insulated American”), I prefer too cold. Too warm quickly turns into a game of Let’s See What I Can Sweat Through Today™, with possible options including my shirt, my pants, my couch, etc. And a bad case of swamp ass can result in rashes and actual pain, not to mention other unsavory side effects.

I have a pet peeve. Dogs who lick their groin areas, then lick your face.

Do we really need a "Thoughts from the morning after" thread for every Pens game? Can't that stuff go in the GDT?
