Casually Deliberate
I would be tempted to take it and see if anyone else brings one or has one there. Might be a good chance for you and one or more of the cousins to escape the standing around with a beer pretending you're making conversation scenario.

I downloaded the TdF app for my phone but I'm not looking at anything but the stage map.
After I finish my homework, my plans are to get the living room vacuumed and the kitchen swept then I'm going to practice riding over the pedestrian bridge until I quit getting distracted by the fence and running into it. #smallgoals

Also sucks? Chicken. Forget the big piece of chicken; I want the big piece of beef.

I hate driving. And I expect I have driven longer than anyone else here, more than 54 years. Anyone else can claim the wheel when I'm going somewhere. Driving as fun is a marketing trick foisted on the American public. And no, it doesn't matter what car is involved.

Interesting - I love driving, and look forward to open highways. You can keep city traffic all to yourselves though. Boston traffic is miserable, but get up the coast of Maine or the mountains in NH or VT and it's pure heaven.

Despite commuting 800 miles a week for 21 years (yes, I've mentioned it before) I still don't hate driving. I just hate long distance daily commuting.
My ex used to wonder why I never wanted to go anywhere on weekends. Meanwhile she wasn't offering to drive, she was all comfy reading a book or sleeping while I drove daily. That's part of the reason she's an 'ex'. People will be unfair if you let them.

Haven't tried any of those. The problem with chicken is that it just doesn't taste like much of anything. The texture, flavor, and really everything else is just completely inferior to beef or bison.
