I think the meaning behind the phrase is that you’ve already beaten the horse to death, but you’re still beating it even though it’s dead. I mean it’s not a phrase to be taken literally but it came from somewhere.

Nothing like seeing a car drive down the street with super tinted windows, tinted windshield, riddled with battle scars, and a paper license plate from New Jersey

Getting a 5 year old a passport without any out of country trips planned is a weird ass thing to do. All that paperwork and the fees involved, just seems weird.

Why can’t PECO spend less money and just elevate the entire substation itself. This seem wonky as hell, and the fact that PECO has no comment makes it worse.

You know, every fucking LED light bulb that I’ve replaced old incandescent bulbs with has died, each lasting for a significantly lesser amount of time than just regular old light bulbs. Just throwing my two cents into this.

Reply to Those idiot in NJ will surely fall for our lies if we make claims with no evidence and pretend to care about the whales like they do! by New_Stats
Just sounds like millionaire beach house owners last desperate attempt to try and not have to look out their beachfront windows at windmills in the distance. The people who live a mile inland don’t give a shit about your ruined Airbnbs, but they do give a shit about lower energy bills.

South Philly is the worst all around. All the foot traffic ignoring car traffic, cyclists ignoring traffic signs, double parking, triple parking, narrow ass streets, endless potholes.

I don’t blame him. Whoever comes next has a lot of annoying shit to deal with and messes to clean up. Nutter can just go for bike rides and collect a pension rather than deal with any of that if he doesn’t run again.

This has been happening in the suburbs a lot, where someone will list a house and collect payment and they don’t even own the home. Not sure how they get away with it but who knows.

Reply to What the fuck is that smell? by LocalOnThe8s
It’s inversion. All the pollutants that normally ascend higher up into the atmosphere are currently trapped underneath this cloud layer, at ground level. This usually happens during the colder months, at least once a year. Sometimes it smells like burning or melting plastic, sometimes like a sweet perfume, just depends on which industries you live nearby and down wind from.
