You can also do it without buying an expensive plane ticket but that hasn't stopped the idea of "raw-dogging a flight" from spreading

Interesting in concept i guess, but orders of magnitude less efficient than a train.

In order for everyone to just freaking go, their cars would have to be attached somehow.

I wonder if anyone's ever thought of linking a bunch of cars together so they can all stop and go simultaneously. And hey, since the cars are attached and all need to go to the same place, we can build a track instead of using high maintenance rubber on pavement and-

oop, we invented trains

When I said "emulsified with garlic" I was trying to convey the idea that the garlic is the emulsifier. "Oil emulsified by egg with garlic added for flavor" is not an aioli by its rigid definition, but it does fit the american colloqual use

Aioli is "garlic and oil" by translation. By definition aioli is a spread made from oil emulsified with garlic, which mixing garlic into mayonnaise does not achieve. That said, the colloquial use of aioli to refer to just about any thick smooth spread is well on its way to changing that. Pedants like me can fight it all we want, but languages evolve. It's just what they do.
