So our clocks will just always be wrong? At no point, in the entire year, will "noon" be at noon. This is genuinely retarded.

I think I say this sometimes too but technically you're asking permission.
What if they say no

I usually say "I'll have the..." Or maybe "I'd like the..." Depending on the vibe sometimes it's just a blunt noun: "brat, onions, and a warsteiner dunkel" at the deutches Haus for example. That doesn't work everywhere obviously.

The reason for this question is that my wife invariably says "I'll do your..." As in "I'll do your eggplant risotto." "I'll do your whopper junior, no mayonnaise." I think this is completely nonsensical and have sternly and consistently maintained as such. You can't "do" a plate of food. The "your" also bothers me a little but I would let it slide if not for the "do" part. This has led to no small degree of tension over the years and decades and I would appreciate some neutral outside contributions.

Every year johnson maximizes hitting and lets fielding fall where it may. Which is a strategy that's worked.
Well this year the hitting didn't pan out and this is what were left with.

Is this.... supposed to be a lot?

Great to see the OT accepting this bit of good news in its usual optimistic spirit

I've done it twice with *used* cars. Both from Florida which has 10x the selection Louisiana does, apparently.
The first time doesn't really count because I had my brother (no pics) who lives out of state go check it out and test drive it for me first. That transaction went well. I bought it from some guy who had a small lot on the equivalent of Airline Highway and he was super upfront & responsive.
The second time we rolled the dice and bought my wife a specific model she wanted from a dealership in Miami, sight unseen. We felt a little more confident because it was new enough to still have warranty. That was a clusterfrick. These idiots didn't send us the title, and she was back and forth with them for like three weeks getting transferred around and ignored. I had to call the company's *general counsel* in Washington just to get the fricking title. Once she found out she was dealing with a graduate of the Paul M Hebert Law Center she knew not to frick around and they overnighted it to us asap. :pimp: Car was in good shape though.

this would never have happened if we still had teedy's firm hand at the till
