We might one day , at the rate were going, unless natural selection steps up and embraces intelligence as part of its process. Nah...ENTROPY PREVAILS!My reality and yours are quite different.

Then the idiot doesn't get it anyway. That's when he becomes a stupid fucker. He should see this... Who? Spence?

MikeJD 0 #28 January 28, 2013 QuoteThe glove compartment is inaccurately named I thought over there it was a Glock compartment. But moving swiftly on before this thread gets sent to another forum, I guess driving gloves have been on the decline ever since cars came with roofs - but still I remember my parents using them when we were kids. I guess they finally became unneccessary when they replaced those hard, cold, slippery steering wheels with the soft, padded ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TriGirl 341 #31 January 28, 2013 Quote So I was bored driving home from somewhere, and my mind was wandering... If a "speedometer" measures speed, then does an odometer measure ods? Does a tachometer measure tachs? How come the fuel gauge isn't a fuelometer? Just wondering... tach- is the root for "speed" (from the Greek). Tachycardia is the medical term for rapid heartbeat. Other kinds of meters that are fun to say, especially if you can say them correctly: sphygmomenometer anemometer (this could segue right into the "fun words" thread!) ... and of course those word should be followed by, "doot DOO doo doo doot!"
