Day 8.032: Fenderberg and other winter language issues

Exile #2 mentioned fenderbergs and carsicles on Sunday.

I usually ignore them until they get like this one today:


When they get to this size they rub on the wheel when steering and braking and make a very disturbing sound.

In fact the sound is almost as disturbing as I found the process of deciding whether to spell the thing it was rubbing on "tire" or "tyre" before settling on the spelling: W H E E L.
