Minor things that bother you

[texaskdog]

Ok so imma make just one.
- US 160 going to Tuba instead of 64.
- 180's entire existence west of its junction with 62.
- 80 and 180 not quite making it to DFW.
- US 190 being so close to MS but not entering it

Yes, 64 should go all the way to Grand Canyon as well. 
How about ending 62 just after it enters Texas, since it would bounce Northwest and just make it all 180
And on top of that making that stretch of 180 into 80 and thus it would go through DFW
That's what she said.

- US 33, 35, and 42's entire existence.

US 42 can get replaced with extensions of US 25 in Ohio and US 22 in KY, but have you been on US 33 or US 35, especially 35? The fastest routings from most of the midwest west of Columbus to the area between I-77, I-64, US 74 and the Atlantic Ocean involve US 35. There's a reason why it's an expressway or freeway for most of its route from Dayton eastward. As for US 33, it's a freeway from both sides of Columbus to Athens and Bellefontaine, so its importance is more limited to Ohio than US 35.

ending sentences with extra fluff


* Propositions
* The total is $4.49 there for ya!
* The total is $5.59 today.  (Like it would be any different tomorrow)

Fitting that putting "eh?" at the end of a sentence actually bothers Canadians.

Cashier: The total is $4.57.
Me: Here's $10.57. (I had no 5s and not enough 1s at the time)
Cashier: Do you want two?

Or "the total is going to be $4.57"  No, it is $4.57

You guys probably haven't worked as a cashier for 9 hours in a day then. Changing things up is the only way I got through without feeling like a total robot.

On a similar note, when people add "if that's OK" or similar to something that is inevitably going to happen. Like I really have a choice whether it's OK or not!

That still doesn't explain cashiers not understanding paying an amount to get an even amount of change back. While the situation above has only happened once, I've had them not accept the coins and instead give back change for the $10 bill multiple times (at different locations, not this one). Since cash registers typically give out more coins than they receive, they could probably use the coins I give them.

Unrelated: Increasing from A to B, regardless of what those numbers are, is not an exponential increase. You need at least three data points for it to be exponential.

nah it's not Spanish related. You can ask me which discord servers I'm in later, because the habit is in a couple of those.

"Yo" means "I" in Spanish and is therefore a very common word to begin a sentence with. It has nothing to do with culture or ethnicity.

I feel like we're having two separate conversations, yo.

"Yo" only makes sense in english as an informal "your". If you use it as a greeting, gross. But I'm a fan of the spanish "yo"

Yo, this is a silly conversation over semantics, yo.

That I can understand. Some of the high schoolers I managed (and even some of the adults) had a lot of trouble with this concept. Or when they typed in the total into the register, then the customer found some extra coins and wanted to use it so their change would be less coins back. All you have to do is just add the extra amount they're giving you to their change!

It isn't it-AL-ee either, though, so you're pronouncing them differently too.

I-rain-ian doesn't necessitate I-rain

It's not as common as Bob and Doug McKenzie might have you believe, but I have never heard of Canadians being bothered by "eh", no matter where in the sentence it is.

Chairs that sit you about 30+ inches off the ground are irritating. There's no way to sit or dismount without looking and feeling oafish, and I prefer it if my feet can actually touch the ground.
