Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases ALL THE RAGE and ROAD RAGE

In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase all the rage. When something is all the rage, it means everyone is doing it or everyone is wearing it. In my world, people who are my age, it's all the rage to wear dad shoes. I'll put a picture here of what dad shoes look like, but they're all the rage. But something funny happened because now those shoes are also popular with young people. So it's all the rage to wear New Balance shoes. But it used to be a white pair of New Balance shoes was considered a pair of dad shoes, and they were all the rage for people my age, but now they are for younger people, too. So when something's all the rage, it's very, very popular.

And then the term road rage. I didn't experience any road rage on my way home from visiting Brent. I was on the highway for about ten or 11 hours. It was quite a long drive and no one got angry with me. Road rage is when you cut someone off or when you do something to make another driver angry. And then that anger that they experience we call road rage. So I myself did not get angry at anyone, nor did anyone get angry at me. So there was no road rage on my trip.

So to review when something's all the rage, it means it's very, very popular. And then let me think of something else that's all the rage. I imagine when they invented sunglasses many, many years ago, they were all the rage. I imagine everyone was wearing sunglasses the year they were invented. And then road rage would simply be anger that is taking place while you're driving. Usually someone gets angry with you and you call it road rage.

But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Tammy. Tammy says you both look like twin brothers. Have a safe trip all the way to Canada. Please take a coffee break if you like. Thank you both for this new video. And my response: I stopped multiple times on the way back. I left really early, but as the day went on, I found I needed breaks more often. I still made good time, though, and was able to return the car rental before 05:00 p.m. that day. So, Tammy, thanks for that comment.

And yes, I did take breaks, quite a few breaks. So I started. For those of you that don't know, I was visiting Brent and I left at 05:00 a.m. last week, Friday. And I actually drove for some pretty long stretches. I drove from five till eight without stopping. Then I drove from eight till about noon, 1130 noon. Two really long stretches. But after that I started to get a little bit, not drowsy, but I just got physically tired. Like between you and me, I'll just tell you, my butt was getting sore from sitting in the car for so long.

So I started to stop like every hour or even less than every hour. So I think I stopped at every single rest stop in New York. Well, no, I think every other. Okay. And I didn't always buy anything. And usually I just walked. I probably looked kind of funny. I was the guy doing loops at the rest stop. But hey, it's really good to be home. It was nice too, because like I said, I was able to return the rental car and I saved myself $30 by bringing it back the same day I drove home instead of the next morning. So that was kind of nice. And what else was I going to say? I was really tired the next day. It surprised me how simply sitting in a car and really doing nothing can be quite tiring. So last week, let me get this all straight, the days in my head. Last week, Saturday, I didn't do much. I was pretty lazy. I just kind of... I did go for a walk to kind of loosen up my legs again. But yeah, it was a good drive back and I
