Hello folks! You’re hearing us from a day full of Marvel movies.

Man, it was a great thing to do! We literally fueled up our movie hunger in a day.

For sure It’ll keep us full for a few months.

I’d say for a few weeks. I really miss watching action movies. I should confess that I needed that for a while.

I’ll say “science fiction” for them but since you’re already living in a different universe in your head it’s not so “fiction” for you.

True that! It’s as if Stan Lee wrote all these comics for me! Heh! [proudly]

Oh he definitely didn’t.

But still I just choose to imagine myself flying around with my cool costume.

Hmm, since you think “cool costume'' means spiderman’s. I don’t really have words for you while there’s Iron Man!

Spiderman fans will be mad at you.

What?! I’m not saying anything bad! I just say I personally prefer Iron Man. Even his arc reactor itself is a masterpiece.

Oh despite its glorious style, Iron Man is just a man in a suit at the end of the day. BUT Peter Parker has actual superpowers.

If we keep up with the Joneses we’ll be talking about this for hours and hours. You know that right?

Yeah, but we’ll get back to this later. You can’t get away that quickly. So, tell me if you could have a super power what would it be?

I’d go for endless energy.

Why?

You might find yourself driving fast if you’re late for work, need to be on time for an appointment, or want to get to your destination as quickly as possible. Even if you stay under the speed limit, there are certain things that can put you at risk of an accident and should be avoided.

For instance, blaring out your favorite songs while driving fast might not be such a good idea. A 2013 study conducted at Ben-Gurion University in Israel tested 85 teenagers on their driving skills while listening to music. While listening to their favorite songs, 98% of them made errors. While listening to easy-going music like soft rock or jazz, only 77% of them made mistakes. If you’re driving fast, it’s best to keep the radio off.

Why do we say “OK”? It’s hard to believe there was ever a time when some words didn’t exist. Had you been around before 1839, for instance, you wouldn’t have had a clue what OK means because OK wasn’t a thing yet! It's easily one of the most widely-used expressions around the world. It isn’t confined to one region, language, or even purpose! 

You use it to show that you got the message, like when your boss says, “Hey, I need you to send me a copy of that report” and you reply, “OK!” Yet if you think that something was just mediocre, you say, “Eh, the movie was OK.”
