 NPR worries about your choice of emojis, and wants you to worry too.

  2. NPR leads off with a user who uses a yellow emoji in order to avoid...conflict. Which evokes another meaning of the color yellow.

    There is no problem when there are no emojis being used, and folks universally go back to using plain American English instead of trying to be constantly cute.

  3. Waaaah! Something is happening where we feel left out talking about race all the time, so we are going to invent a problem to make others feel uncomfortable for no reason. Because when you feel uncomfortable, it becomes an opportunity for us to talk endlessly, and if you don't want to listen we will blame you for that.

  4. At the risk of sounding evil, I would have to say that this sounds like a clear cut case of "Shallow minds off the deep end!". @_@

  6. NPR is hacking vehicular FM radios, making it impossible to change the station and listen to other viewpoints.

  7. "With Car Talk having ended in 2012 and most affiliates dropping The Best of Car Talk since then, I’m not sure why anybody would intentionally listen to NPR anymore."

    That's a wild story.

  8. 'It's $1,500 and we don't have the part.'

    Time to chuck the thing to the curb and install a regular stereo, I guess.
