It was ridiculous trying to make a U-turn in that thing. You could turn the wheel all the way to the left, and you’d still cross all three lanes and hit the curb on the other side.

That boat had a turning radius the size of Utah.

*Laughter*

The turning radius is measured in AUs.

*Louder laughter*

Yes, we are geeks. Thank you for asking.

I totally get that. I used cleaning as an example.

But tell me, why does my post on Judging Based on Appearances have ads related to things like women’s stockings, and panties, and drag queen dresses?

Google Ads

The music selection is perfect, too.
