Nice! One of my favorite bars in Boston when I used to go out more often was Carrie Nation. They made some pretty killer old fashioneds.
Were they going for the irony effect, or perhaps they thought it less likely an enthusiastic, perhaps anachronistic, hatchet-wielding follower might come calling if it were her namesake?

The front of it was a restaurant and the club was a very poorly hidden saloon in the back.

Thought I'd give this whole outdoor/sunshine thing a shot since it's a nice day out.

I don't have a death wish though so I deployed an umbrella.

Citronella plants seemed to have helped with the bee problem too. Haven't seen any in a good week or so.

It's so damn bright out here. My blue eyes can only squint so much.

Plus I'm getting annoyed having to watch multiple people fucking suck at parking. Some chump just took 3 tries to back into a spot and get between the lines. I know you've got backup cameras, bitch, do better.

Tea ftw!

Just not outside in AZ heats
Drinking hot tea raises your internal body temp so you don't notice how hot it is! It's pretty common in Spain or Italy or whenever the fuck. Also obviously England.

I'd still get frustrated if a dude couldn't get it in on the first try. Second at best.

there is no temperature in which tea is not an acceptable drink.
I just can't stand the South and their sweet tea. It's an abomination.

And I put a bunch of sugar in my tea so I shouldn't even complain. Nor do I have qualms about drinking my tea if I let it get cold...

I think I just have South trauma.

Hot take... I don't like backup cameras, and I've driven hundreds of cars with them over the years. Call me old-fashioned, but, I prefer "manually" checking my surroundings. Hell, I don't even need windshield mounted rear view. I'm fine with just using the passenger side mirror if I don't feel like going for the over-the-shoulder Driver's Ed approved method.

I love sweet tea, but I don't want diabetes so I try to not drink it too often. Hot tea with or without honey is good enough for me.

Sure, I'd agree. You should be able to do it without the camera without a doubt. But when the SUV looks new enough it probably has the whole "curves to show your path as you turn" and line sensors, etc. there shouldn't be any excuse.

My RAV4 only has a basic cam on the back that doesn't angle itself. Just stays fixed and has a line to show how close you can get to something and still open the back hatch. My Matrix ain't got shit, you're doing that bitch with mirrors like an Egyptian.

I caught a spider on the bathroom wall, and noticed some beetle thing in there too, also trapping that in the glass. As I carried them towards the balcony door little spider-dude pounced and looked like he was gonna have a meal, but after I tipped them out onto a planter he let go and beetle thing ran off.

You gotta hold onto that cheeseburger tighter, my man.

The excuse then becomes the driver has been conditioned to rely too heavily on the sensors and not their own eyes. When I'd be in parking lots staking out cars for hours on end, and I'd always make a game out of who was gonna take the longest time to park, and it's always the ones illuminated in blue from the screen with their face buried into the console and looking nowhere near their mirrors.

The static lines are the best, in my opinion. The curving lines seem too unnatural to me. Especially if the angle shifts with the turning of the wheel, and not just the general orientation.
