On my local weather channel theres this small 20 somethings guy who does the minor weather and my family is so enchanted by him. He wears the most egregious suits and ties that make my grandparents go off the rails. Sometimes he blends in with the green screen and my grandparents go farther off the rails. My entire family calls him "sheldon" because any skinny white geeky guy is Sheldon Cooper to them. There is currently a huge tornado on the way and they sent Sheldon to go check it out. Sheldon sounds like he's crying in the middle of this horrible rain and my grandparents are so upset about it. Sheldon could die out there. Why did they have to sacrifice him? Sacrificing their young. My grandmother has started a grudge against the main weather man for abusing poor poor Sheldon. I will update if Sheldon survives.

Car Trunk vs Car Boot: A clear win for US English, trunk was already a thing in which you stored items, frequently for transport.

Crisps vs Chips: I gotta admit, the Brits have this one. They're thin slices of potato that have been made crispy. No chipping of any materials involved.

Car Park vs Parking Lot: Equally matched. What's a car park? A place to park cars. What's a parking lot? An otherwise empty lot where you can park.

Elevator vs Lift: Both equally fail to address that the damn thing also goes down.

You know what I've never really seen realistically depicted in fiction? The way that people in places that get a huge amount of snow deal with said snow. Specifically in the cities. I get that it's probably not exactly an intuitive thing to think about if you've never lived in a place that gets a lot of snow, and even if you do, you probably figure that they must have some really sophisticated infrastructure systems specifically for this purpose. It's not like they'll just scoop the snow off the streets and gather it into huge piles, and then just climb over the progressively larger and larger snow piles every single year for months while waiting for the piles to melt in the spring.

We do. There's no point in planning more sophisticated systems to get rid of something that'll eventually just go away on its own. So they just pile the snow into randomly designated spaces that cars or people aren't supposed to go through, and let it pile up. There's significantly less street parking available in the winter because some spots where you could otherwise park a car are currently the parking spot of a snow pile three times taller than a car.

You get used to it. And if you grow up around here, it never even occurs to you to think of it as something strange in the first place.

extremely underrated subgenre of tumblr post: when someone makes a general statement about something, and another person offers a counter-statement that's just completely nonsensical, and the OP just agrees instantly even if it makes no sense at all

examples:

A screenshot of a tumblr post.
First part of the post is by user dullanyan and says "A few weeks ago, I needed Worcestershire sauce for a recipe, but I didn't have any, so I had to leave it out. You are never gonna believe what I found in the cabinet today, unopened, probably has been there for months."
Second part of the post is by the same user. It shows a screenshot of a reply by user easel-eisal that says "A strong as fuck ice mummy?" Below that is an image of a house completely frozen over from an ice storm, covered in ice and icicles. The text below that has a pensive emoji and "Yuuuup. My house is fucked."
A screenshot of a tumblr post. 
The first part of the post is by tumblr user sorryfortheraybans and says "Some people have moneys. Some people have freaken dollars and cents. Some people have coins, and bucks. And well I'm not one of those people."
Second part is by user ktdx and says "You have jaundice."
Third part is by user deanky and says "I have jaundice."
Screenshot of a tumblr post.
First part is by user transamus and says "Never eat raw white onion and then smoke cigarette."
Second part is by user helpeverythingiscats and says "The gnomes beat the shit out of you again?"
Third part is by transamus again and says "The gnomes beat the shit out of me again."

So I started working again today, and me and my coworker had to squeeze lemons which usually is a really un fun job but TODAY. We had the mostly lovely batch of lemons to work with. So we rated how smoothly they cut and how nice the insides of them looked for about an hour. An absolutely marvelous time I gotta say

Honestly, Y'all, I'm Begging You. Take The Time To Think And Learn For Yourself. Even If It's Just Something

Honestly, y'all, I'm begging you. Take the time to think and learn for yourself. Even if it's just something casual like knitting or cooking. Exercise your brain. It's important.
