I’m almost 40 and a lot of my cars in my teens and 20s were from the '80s and '90s. Almost everything I’ve owned has had at least a rudimentary cruise control although there are some ('80s Bronco II, '95 Miata, early '90s 240sx, 99 Impreza Wagon) where it was broken or I just never used it.

All that said, I LOVE the radar controlled cruise control on my current vehicle. I’ve used it for at least 20,000 miles of driving at this point. Interstate, highway, city, you name it… Pretty much any time I want to maintain a steady speed over 28 and there’s not a lot of stop and go traffic. I hate thinking about life without it now (and I hate using standard cruise control without radar)!

Holy shit, random person. Three heated responses to one comment. If you don’t care about strangers opinions online why are you so darn angry? If you hate the “commie” “tankie” cesspool that is Lemmy, why are you here?

Bags by itself sounds weird, but beanbags doesn’t bother me.

The word “soda” comes from the sodium salts in carbonated water, which reduce the liquid’s acidity. The word may also come from the Italian word suwwād, which refers to a saltwort that can be used to obtain sodium carbonate. The first known use of the word “soda” was in 1558.

The term “pop” was first used in the early 19th century as a colloquial term for fizzy drinks. The earliest known use of the word was in 1812, when poet Robert Southey wrote in a letter that a new drink was “called pop, because ‘pop goes the cork’ when it is drawn”. The term “soda pop” was later combined from the words “pop” and “soda” in 1863.

I mean soda was around to refer to a carbonated beverage hundreds of years before pop came into use. Plus pop is one of those confusing English language words that can mean a few different things (dad, loud-noise, carbonated-beverage, punch, arrive, etc.). You do you though. And keep thinking anybody who does things differently than you is weird. That’s healthy.

She’s too old for that.

Cowboy hat, maybe?

Edit: No, more like a Mountie hat.
