Explaining Top Gear to a friend.
Friend: Top Gear? I've never seen it.
Me: It's brilliant. It's supposed to be about cars, but it's not. Well, it is, but they do ridiculous things with them when they're not actually being some version of educational.
Friend: Nice.
Me: Definitely. And, it's British. So, automatic win.

Raising the Speed Limit- A Good Fix or Playing...
Not everyone loves to race around in their cars, although some of us (and probably most of us, if you’re following the TG Tumblr) do, and in England they might just make our wishes come true by raising the speed limit from 70mph to 80mph.  That ten mile per hour increase would be meant to ease congestion and increase gas efficiency, the theory being less cars would be idling in traffic...
