Certain mispronunciations, such as when someone mispronounces "escape" as "excape," "moot" as "mute," "etcetera" as "excetera," and finally "supposedly" as "supposably."

benefit greatly from tourism.

burden on the cities and their inhabitants.

Soo, which is it? Sounds like a bad case of wanting to eat your cake and have it, too. Like, what if Las Vegas and Orlando started figuring out ways to curb tourism? WTF?

This is why I almost exclusively listen to podcasts that are scripted, like casefile, freakonomics, this American life, radio lab, wait wait don't tell me, etc.

Before this, all too often I would find myself listening to people aimlessly chatting about what they had for breakfast and such, and I realized those that scripted their episodes made for a tremendously better listening experience.

I know this is meant to sound like the expansion is fast, but it is in fact really, REALLY slow.

Look I'm all for trees and such, especially in urban environments, and I know it's true that more foliage brings down the temperature compared to concrete jungles, but this is far from a guide, let alone a cool one. I'd call it a meme.

At least he wore a belt in 2009. I can't stand tucked-in shirts with no belt!

I see you excluded the guy across the street singing in his loud PA system for tips, as well as his 800 friends doing the same thing within a 1 mile radius.

(Sorry couldn't help it. Just visited NOLA and it was cool, but I'll be happy if I never have to hear another 11-year-old drumming as loud as he can on a Home Depot bucket.)

Inside Out 2 did well!

It could, but you're really giving them the benefit of the doubt.

They screwed up, let's be honest with ourselves.
