I literally did this twice yesterday
Honest question. What is the origin/reason of this fashion to prevent the use of capitals?
I'm pretty sure it started with artists using lowercase in their titles and album names. I have 0 evidence for this
I'm going to use you as a source on Grokpedia
Elf?
I don’t remember a logging truck in kill bill
Finding Nemo?
Ice cold reference! I never heard anyone else reference that one in regards to You Will Die In Remarkable Ways II.
Braces girl murders fish.
Christmas Vacation?
That was 1989.
Damn, I’m old.
You're a fucking spring blossom and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
My problem is I'm a corpse flower.
Those are the prettiest ones! Like, sunflowers!
And you are a ray of sunlight in this dark world. I like you. Please continue being you, and spread the joy!
Yes, spread happiness. I wish I had more of it myself, knowing how precious it is, I try to give it away as much as possible because it doesn't take away from my own, only adds to it.
I needed that. Thanks.

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
OMG, did she have a premonition?
logs that fall off of trucks don't behave that way in real life so that's still a ticket
Sounds exactly what death would say
what nooo
Yeah, you have to run into the log, it doesn't suddenly jump backwards,
But you’re traveling at high speeds and they’d be hard to avoid if they all fell off at once
Yeah but if you brake you will slow down quicker than the logs. The logs won't just suddenly shift their momentum upon falling off and jump into your vehicle.
Even if you're tailgating and the log bumps off? I'm not good at physics btw.
Yes. You are both going the same speed. Unless there is some obstacle on the road that will immediately stop the log your brakes will do a better job of slowing you down than a log will just sliding on the road. The bigger danger is honestly driving towards the truck in case this happens
Speed limit: 65 Trucks: 55 I pass a truck at 76... That's a ticket, 11mph over puts you in the "real fines" zone. Never mind that the truck was going 21mph over his speed limit.
Oh, and then the officer says... Since its a first offense, you can waive the fine if you take our online class, and it won't be reported to your insurance.
The online class has a fee of exactly the fine +$10. Payable to some private company of course.
I wanted to turn around, drive back to Nebraska and [fedpost].
Does it still benefit you if it isn't reported to your insurance company and you get I guess to pay less
Two hours later, both of you are still trying to guess which movie you're talking about
Look, in the spirit of community, in case somebody isn't getting it, this is a reference to the movie Speed! with Nicholas Cage.
Weird, I thought it's Final Destination 2 with Keanu Reeves.
Logs (2003)
Is that the one about the sentient log that rolls around killing people?
You can't imagine my surprise and disappointment that this isn't a real movie.
The very same!
Nice! And to think it started as just a humble kids toy....
It started as Thomas the Tank Engine.
The Matrix Reloaded?
You didn't even need to see the movie, that scene was in the trailer which was was everywhere at the time
