When I'm driving, there are 4 reasons to stop:

  • The tank is empty.
  • The bladder is full.
  • I'm so tired we're all to crash and die.
  • The car is on fire and/or falling apart

Unless one of these applies, we're driving. And if a stop is required, there are zero acceptable reasons to extend that stop that are not on this list.

Edit: "we're there" is also a good reason to stop

On a recent road trip I discovered a new reason to stop. I saw a sign that said "drive a tank $99"

Did you finish your trip with the tank?

That doesn't sound very enjoyable and seems a bit evil. The tank will hardly go a couple of meters before the bottom of the glass cracks and all the fish will fall out on the hot asphalt before suffocating to death.

drive thru and eat while driving

Ordering ahead and picking up inside is much faster than a drive thru

Imma need a two-fer there, or it's the side of I-whatever the fuck we're on for 5 to 35 minutes.
