    Yeah, when i lived in mesquite, the dart was a non-option. By the time i got to the nearest station, I could have parked and grabbed a Starbucks in downtown.

    Now when I lived in/near Garland, the dart was absolutely a life saver, even though my company had a comped parking garage, it was easier to let the dart take me into downtown.

    I’m in fort Worth now and can say, fuck TxDOT and the imbeciles they’ve allowed to completely fuck up the rest of the state. You can take my roundabouts (or “traffic circles” because Texas politicians are humorless dicks) from my cold dead hands.

    Yeah, I forgot what the sense was called, awareness of your limbs in relation to your body and balance, the sense that gets all wobbly with alcohol; hence, the close-your-eyes-and-touch-your-nose test. I’m 40 and still walk on curbs like they are balance beams. Favorite was the rings, the closest thing I can get to flying without also becoming motion sick :/

    You throw me a ball, I’ll prevent it from hitting me, but forget intercepting the things with any grace or plan. Me trying out for tennis in middle school was basically mini dodge ball.
