Still sucks. I like shifting myself. I guess it doesn't really matter. I'll never own one anyway.

A tanker hauling 40,000 pounds of liquid chocolate rolled over on the interstate near Flagstaff, Arizona, on Monday, leaving a river of the sweet liquid all over the road.

The single vehicle accident happened on Interstate 40, leaving some lanes blocked while crews attended to the chocolatey mess. No one was injured in the accident, but the clean-up did take about four hours.

Chain stores in New Jersey can only obtain two liquor licenses throughout the whole state, so even though beer and wine can be sold in grocery stores in New Jersey, it's not as common because of the license limit.

According to the North Carolina Alcoholic Beverage Control Retail Guide for Permittees, special promotions for free drinks including 'two for one,' 'buy one, get a second for a nickel,' 'buy a meal (or anything), get a free drink,' etc., are completely banned in the state.

Though lots of states have special laws defining what times alcohol can be sold on Sundays, South Carolina completely prohibits the sale of alcohol without a special permit.

On election days in Alaska, businesses that sell alcohol must stay closed until polls close. It is also illegal to be drunk on the premises of a bar or restaurant that sells alcohol, and bars can't sell alcohol at a discounted rate unless the discount is regularly given every day of the week.

In Pennsylvania, hard liquor can only be bought at state-run stores.

Massachusetts has some of the most strict alcohol laws, including that bars don't have to accept out-of-state IDs as proof of age.

Happy hours, free drinks, and drinking games like beer pong, are also prohibited in the state. Grocery stores are also limited to only five liquor licenses per chain.

Canada once had a rule under the elections act that alcohol could not be served until the polls closed. That rule was changed some years ago
