Usually they leave it on after a cabin announcement or something (commonly called a “wafer” if they’re on the wrong freq/comm or generally just a stuck mic) and all the other pilots on that frequency get to make fun. Usually what you hear is pretty boring, but THIS is comedy gold. And I loathe the bay area just like…

Just watched that. Even in 89 and with a new DOHC V6 the Camry was considered boring. Some things never change 

Your forgot the rug on the cracked dash too, which the seller tried to hide.

So it drew a dick, then got stuck in the mouth of the Suez and there aren’t enough seamen with enough thrust to push it out. And the longer it’s in there, the more screwed we are...

Anybody who says Americans have some natural love of liberty have never dealt with an HOA.

Too many colors are too fancy. How about this?

...little gestapo wannabes who run around and photograph and ticket offenders all day long.

Did you seriously link to Raph’s much-maligned article from last year where all he did was show that he doesn’t spent much time researching the subjects he writes about and also has zero understanding of the dynamics and intricacies created by the intersection of massive infrastructural change, government regulations…

I stayed with a group of people in a condo in a gated community down somewhere in Jupiter or WPB a few years ago, and we were commuting to and from PBIR in a plain white Ford Transit passenger van. Every morning there was a ticket on the window telling us that motorhomes were against the rules, and every morning we’d…

Sounds like an apartment manager is about to have a lot of dents and flat tires on their car.

Well, the ‘88 Tracer was really a badge-engineered Mazda 323 and had EFI, fully independent suspension and other modern features that were worlds ahead of the Escort of the day.

Some Jeep stan will buy it, but this is so overpriced for what you’re getting that it would take me the rest of the day to list all the negatives. Basically, this is a bare-bones nuthin’-special Jeep. BFD for the restoration and engine swap. It’s a one-season around-the-farm/beach toy. For the asking price I can buy…

Yep and then after $2k of replacing all fluids, the tires, the belts, the gaskets and the like and you drive it for a year, the value drops down to about $5k if you can find a buyer at that price. Big depreciation hit there for a crappy car. I’d rather buy a $3k online (with only 49k miles) than buy this one.

What is the purpose of money? What is the purpose of government? I find philosophical questions arise. The fact of the matter is as the currency issuer the government does not play by the same rules as those of us who use currency. A household budget is no longer a good analogy for macro-finance, not since the gold…

Conservatives have expressed worry about inflation for at least 30 years for no reason except to block government programs that would help the bottom 60% of the population.

I VERY much agree with you. Why would you put yourself though what it takes to get elected in this country. And potentially spend hundreds of millions to get a job that pays a few hundred thousands and ages you a decade a year.

How much of a sleeper would it be since law enforcement would see it and basically be sitting in the same thing, only in police interceptor trim?

As I was reading the request, I think my expression slowly changed to this:
