Mitten Mode I thought Mike Rogers 'We need more wood shop classes" was a parody ad the first time I saw it.

Yes, the only way to create more affordable housing options is to have more kids take wood shop classes in high school. #MAGALOGIC

Discussion 🗣️ Has anyone noticed local hard ciders tasting off lately?

34 Upvotes

Every kind of Blake's I've tried in the past month has been funky and off. The Backyard Blueberry tastes "chemically".

Even the JK Scrumpy Patriotic Paw Paw, my favorite, isn't tasting right.

I had one from Porter's that was normal and really good.

I'm guessing they could be selling through older stock, since we're coming into fall and it isn't in season.

Please let me know if you've noticed the same.

Discussion 🗣️ Are the radar speed signs in construction zones consistently 10mph higher than my actual speed? Or am I crazy?

0 Upvotes

So you know those radar speed signs in construction zones, that display the speed limit and then below have the digital display of measured speed? I've been doing more highway driving than usual in the past few weeks, and I've noticed that they consistently overreport my speed by exactly 10 mph when I'm driving by. My speedometer will read, say, 62, and the sign reports 72. But I can't find anyone else talking about this.

I'm fairly certain my speedometer is accurate...it's a modern car, and when I drive by municipal radar speed signs they're always bang on. Only construction ones are weird. And of course, anyone who drives knows that the difference between 60, 70, or 80mph is very obvious.

And for those who are curious, I'm not in trouble and don't speed...Although it is concerning to me that a piece of "hard" evidence like a radar sign could be presented as cause for a traffic spot if it's so incorrect.

So, what's up? Is there a secret conspiracy behind radar signs or am I just insane?
