Shure se215 (http://www.shure.com/americas/products/earphones-headphones/se-models/se215-sound-isolating-earphones) with M+M cable (http://www.shure.com/americas/products/earphones-headphones/music-mobile/m-mplus-cables). Solid Value.

@seawolf:

The worst drivers in the US in my opinion are from Maryland followed by Florida.

Agreed. People in Maryland just don't fucking know how to drive. Hell, if it's RAINING they slow the hell down and turn on their hazard lights

Bunch of idiots

And Florida seems like it's either an octogenarian going 12 mph in the fast lane with the blinker on or some maniac in a rice rocket going 120 mph cutting people off and swerving between lanes.

Here in Minneapolis we have a lot of Somali immigrants (great people, this is not a slur) and some of them are new to driving and pedestrianism in cultures where we drive. This causes nightmares on the roads, especially, as you might imagine, come winter. People will be going down a one way street the wrong direction or just crossing a busy thoroughfare with their child in a stroller, not using a crosswalk, just ambling across a street with a 45 mph speed limit…

Video semi-relevant, and hilarious

[Giles]

Thank you.  I absolutely loved that….....

[mclaincausey]

Right?  "I'm going sideways, I oughta floor it now"

[Giles]

That guy was just hilarious, I am convinced that he was at max revs the whole time….

[Megatron1505]

That was great.

I've driven up and down the US East coast 30+ times. From my experience, every second in Florida I'm surrounded by horrible drivers. I don't know what it is. The moment I pass the Florida/Georgia Border it's either a complete shitshow or total relief. Also, never speed in North Carolina.

Yeah, the NC Highway Patrol isn't known for its leniency.

My wife is the first one, I'm the second one. She's from Seattle.

Being from NY, you learn the types of snow on the ground. Frozen rain/frozen slush, you don't negotiate with, which is what it looks like in the video.You just park your car on higher ground the night before and stay the fuck home

Why'd I bother to take the time to lovingly put on two overnight applications of Pecard's if it couldn't stop a little whiskey from staining?

I don't mind the stain as much I felt lied to by Pecards

[Megatron1505]

Should've used Huberds 

(I do not work for, nor am I affiliated with Huberds).

You're asking the wrong question.  Instead, you should be asking, "Why am I drinking something that can burn through two layers of leather waterproofer and permanently stain heavy duty boots?"

[mclaincausey]

Dude are you gonna let him say that about whiskey?

[Seul]

Man has a point though…

[tigerpac]

I'll take a stained stomach as trade-off for being able to enjoy some delicious whiskey.

Testify!
