        What has? The article literally never explains what the fuck it’s talking about. I would assume it’s not referring to the common English definition of turning on cruise control.

          Context, dude. No one but you interpreted that headline to mean enabling cruise control

            I could be wrong, but I think his allusion went over your head… where I’m from, cruising often means driving around looking for guys to bang.

                  If you’re referring to your magnum dong, congrats. If your referring to my magnum dong, we might have different definitions of the word, ‘magnum’. Anyways, can I offer you an egg in these trying times?

                    Look, you can’t just go around scattering magnum condoms on the floor if you don’t have a magnum dong. She’ll end up disappointed and you’ll have to D.E.N.N.I.S your way out of it.

          I am American; my first language is English.

          I would never define “cruising” as “turning on cruise control”.

          “Cruising around in my beamer” does not mean that I turned on cruise control in a BMW…

        Yeah cruising in the scenes/area I’m in is hanging out in a public area looking for casual sex, especially of the gay variety. It was killed by a combination of aids, the rise of social acceptance, and grindr over the decades. So yeah this is just a very different thing from what the word means to me
