Trust my rage

NCistas, I have a directions question. I'm going to Duke tomorrow. Do you all suggest 15-501 through Chapel Hill or I-40 to 147 (I think that's the highway). I need to be there at 1:00 pm.

All this would have been fine and eye-rolling, except that PAUL forgot my birthday, too.

Just be glad none of your friends' little brothers paid a dollar to see your underwear that night.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have so many unmatched trouser socks that it's kinda freaking me out. This is some sort of payback for me very rarely losing single normal socks, I bet.

I mean, I don't remember ever buying this many pairs -- I must have 7, 8 single trouser socks, all in need of mates lying in that drawer. Only one matched pair, period.

I wonder why I didn't lose both of the polka dotted ones. I hate them. But one's still there.

15-501 is more direct I think, and the traffic won't be too bad at that time of day, although there are a lot of stoplights.

40 to 147 is lots faster - it's highway all the way - but depending on how you plan to get to 40 seems pretty indirect.

I'd say which one to pick depends on what kind of driver you are. If you hate to go slow take 40. I'd do 15-501 myself.

Are you free for lunch?
