What's the equivalent of punch-buggy for spotting a Cybertruck? Because yeah, I saw one in the wild for the first time this afternoon. (Surprised it took this long, tbh.)
Seriously, that thing makes the Pontiac Aztek look cute in comparison.
in general i really like the way the national spelling bee has done things the past few years but i would MUCH rather have more spelling and less filler video (like this... concert recording from several days ago??) for the finals broadcast
Just a heads-up: much as I did on That Other Site, I'm probably going to be posting some live commentary on the National Spelling Bee finals tonight starting at 8pm ET. (I was a contestant way back in 1997, so it really is personal for me!)
I'm not entirely sure how Amazon managed to do this, but they seem to have renamed several models of Anker earbuds so that they're now a pack of Gildan fleece hoodies (?!?!).
(Search for "Soundcore earbuds" on Amazon and it may show up for you as well…)
I think my favorite thing about Temu's Super Bowl ads is how last year, their ad pronounced their name /timu/, and this year it's pronounced /tɛmu/. No wonder nobody can agree on how to say it.
