The biggest and longest running joke ever to be pulled by a state or nation in history.
The joke is that some people get together somewhere and map out a place to set up cones and tear up the road. Setup then involves blocking off a half mile strip of road on either side of the workzone, and proceeding to jackhammer the hell out of the asphalt.
The punchline is everyone that has to drive through the workzone, as the workers not jackhammering (all of them) laugh at the frustrated looks on peoples faces as they go by, late for work by at least half an hour or more thanks to a four lane highway being shrunken to one lane.
Once the "work" is supposed to be done, or when a new place is found, the workers pull up stakes and move, leaving the road the same as it was before they came, or worse.
This has been going on since before recorded history in Utah, although no record has currently been found as to whether it started with the laying of asphalt in Utah, or merely when roads were established.
Son of a-- not another Utah Road Construction Project! and right on the way to work too.

A theory for people to identify and describe an animal or an object to analyze and to communicate with the world around them. People concentrate on characteristics like height, eye color, and weight to differentiate between animals or objects, instead of race, gender, income status, or nationality. For instance, a house cat is much shorter, has thinner fangs, utters "meow", and he/she is much lighter, unlike a lion who is much taller, has thicker fangs, yells out "roar", and he/she is much heavier, despite a cat and a lion belonging to the same feline family line as distant cousins to each other. Another instance is that a Smart TV doesn't feature any buttons to turn it on/off, to adjust its volume or brightness, to switch channels, its outlets are located behind it, and it is much lighter, compared to the older CRT TV. Universally, everyone and everything is a social construct, but a social construct is not everyone and not everything.
There are social construct words that are not ethnic/racial terms. Examples are "white/Roman" that refers to Europeans and Hispanics/Latinos, "black" that refers to Africans and the Australoid people, "Han Chinese" that refers to Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, Wu, and northern Hans, and "Mongol" that refers to proto-Mongols, Khitans, and Tuyuhun. These socially constructed words are used to unify the masses under nationalism against foreign enemies to take back their freedom and to connect to the world. I find it ironic that some people thinking about themselves as "white" or "black", still fight each other over their own individuality and are still slaves to the original white or black elites, who are tyrannizing them and eliminating their ethnic identities to make them follow a single authoritarian ethnicity in the name of the dollar and dominance. It doesn't matter what category we are placed under. In other words, slavery never ceased; slavery has just evolved.

Alcoholic cocktail comprised of one shot of Bacardi rum, one shot of Malibu coconut rum, and topped up with sparkling lemonade.
History: Devised in June 1999 by a group of volunteer labourers working on building wooden containers for transporting Polish folkloric dance costumes for the Ashfield, Sydney, Australia based ensemble "Syrenka". After a long day at work where they nicknamed their opearation "dodgey brothers' constructions", the DBC boys scrounged around for what refreshment they could find. All there was left was a bottle of Bacardi, a bottle of Malibu and some lemonade. They decided it went well together, and a new drink was born.
Over the following years, knowledge of the "DBC" cocktail has spread to many a pub in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra in Australia, and parts of Europe and the United States.
One DBC, please, in a tall glass.

A group of over-ranked, elderly men that join together to play softball, consume large amounts of drugs and alcohol, and act better than everyone else.
Nate: Those D & N Construction guys sure know how to ride Pup's coat tail! ...But Juice is a good guy.
A period of time that happens in Idaho during early summer to late fall (could be longer) in which almost every main road is closed and everyone has to take overcrowded detours to get to their destination
Ugh... it's road construction season again.
