So... do British people just not know how to drive? It would go a long way to explaining your dislike of cars

[DGuller]

Of course they're bad drivers, they can't even drive on the right side of the road.

Merriam-Webster, America's oldest dictionary publisher, has just chosen "gaslighting" as its word of the year.

Just heard on NPR that monkey pox has been renamed M pox so as not to stigmatize Africans.

Also heard that it was first discovered in research monkeys, which is chilling.

Also that cases have greatly decreased, which is cool.

Why does that stigmatize Africans?

Why does that stigmatize Africans?

I guess because people associate monkeys with Africa.  Honestly I thought it came from Africa before I heard that story.

What is that car that 9 out of 10 people seem to be driving so badly?

FTFY.  Morons are everywhere, and seeing them captured on tape isn't unusual.  The particulars of the video, though, make it hilarious.

RIP Christine McVie.
