Left Eye/Right Eye
Why having two perspectives is a good thing:
Oh, isn’t this a lovely weather photo with the ice and the rainbow?
OH MY GOD THE CABLE IS GOING TO SNAP.
Actually, the cable isn’t going to snap, the reporter that posted that said so. Plus, if you figure the gondolas can hold 4 people each (at least), and if you go for the heavy (or light, I guess, depending) estimate of 300 pounds...

One of them had a story that included an idea I’ve felt I related to a bit more than I’d like to admit. I was looking for...

Blowhards
I love that bloviate turns out to mean pretty much what you’d imagine it to.
