I got a 2023 Hyundai Elantra Limited earlier this year and I actually love what they’ve done with it. It looks so sleek to me, especially in black.

I didn’t care for previous iterations of the Elantra. Dont get me wrong - they weren’t ugly. They just looked like standard car. Not bad just kinda bland. The newer style has personality, stands out much more and in a good way in my opinion.

I used to work for a computer repair place long, long ago and I was on the laptop repair line.

I went to unscrew a laptop but for some reason my screwdriver wasn’t catching the screw… a coworker took the screwdriver and put more force into and there was sickening crunch that wasn’t hardware…

He removed the screw along with an impaled dead baby cockroach…

But this isn’t the end. Oh no.

When that screw came out with its buddy they had friends.

A lot of friends.

Flooding out of that tiny screwhole like something from a god damn horror movie.

We bagged that up and sent it back to the customer. It did not get repaired that day to say the least.

Kentucky also has the Hot Brown and Derby Pie.

Derby pie is delicious.

The wiki someone posted mentions blackberry as the state fruit, which I didn’t know but could definitely see. I have fond memories of picking blackberries outside so grandma could make blackberry cobbler.

As far as drinks go, we also have the Mint Julip and the Oaks Lily, which are basically signature drinks of the Kentucky Derby.

So my 2023 Limited trim Hyundai Elantra is the same way. (And correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure KIA and Hyundai are more or else ‘the same’ at this point? Made by the same people or something?)

I ended up getting one of these: AAWireless 2023 - Wireless Android Auto Dongle - https://a.co/d/hXeBrWT

It’s not ideal but at least it elimates some of the wire mess and my phone itself isn’t physically tethered any where.

Works pretty solid for me so far.

My solution is for Android but surely there’s something similar for iPhone out there too?

Shouldn’t have to jump through hoops for this, especially for higher end models but here we are…

Cincinnati style chili is the only chili I actually like.

So far my favorite is Blue Ash Chili - I like to go there sometimes when I go to Cinci.

They have really good desserts there too…

…This isn’t supposed to happen until your 40s…?

[concern intensifies]

I have back problems so my dog can sleep comfortably.

He’s a very good boy so I’d definitely agree it is worth it.
