Time zones shouldn't exist. There should just be UTC time and you would go to work at the equivalent of your morning time.

Calm down, China.

It would just be much easier to use UTC as the standard for all cross-timezone activities. The small portion of the population who needs to think about timezones would just have to add another timezone to their digital tools and the others won't have to do anything.

Boneless wings are just chicken nuggets.

Nuggets are minced, no?

Wings are dark meat only, and taste different.

Thirteen months, 28 days each + one day. (Plus another day when there is a leap year).

It would just work.

That's a cool thought experiment on what we do with that extra day. Like super ball out cookout?

Day off for everyone, election day

We could make it a national holiday or something. Like New Year's Eve.

People are saying "whenever" when they just mean "when" and I hate it with a fiery passion.

"Whenever I was at the game yesterday..."

When. WHEN!!

"an historic" is wrong and terrible if you pronounce the "h"

Carmel should be the hard version and caramel is the soft kind.

Fish is superior to Bash and ZSH, I dont care that you can have auto completion on both its a pain to set up.
