Extortion by threat of false accusation of a criminal act is a crime in some states. Even if it weren’t specifically, extortion might fit in other jurisdictions.

Not what I see. She leaves him hanging and then shoves the coach in the back. His hand was where the high five was supposed to be. And it looks like her teammates let her know she was in the wrong.

But he’s read books! Books he read as a college freshman! Books by Ayn Rand, the VERY serious philosopher and sociopolitical thinker who saw the world as being divided into “geniuses and parasites.”

We quit after the “Who will Negan brutally slaughter with a bat?!” cliffhanger. Just didn’t find it “entertaining” to see a helpless character executed. DVRd the premier but just didn’t want to see it.

Italian Greyhounds! Sweet little lunatics, our guys.

Portia!

Daphne and Titus cruising in the VW Sportwagen TDI before we turned it in.

Manual. Boost. Controller.

Ben “Stig” Collins has a piece out there somewhere from last year where he drives most of the GTI generations on video (with the questionable addition of period correct facial hair for each gen).

Simple suspension tweaks seem to do a lot, especially if you lack the time / money / expertise to do anything to the drivetrain.

Love these guys.

Does seem like the kind of intersection where you might put one of those yellow reflective <=> signs emphasizing the “left or right only” nature of the “T” to make it more obvious at night. Otherwise you can pretty much expect this kind of thing.

It’s the mix of smugness and ignorance that make this magic. So much arch pontificating and “So, you see”s from someone who thinks all car engines are “V-somethings.”

I guess I’ll root for this car on general principle, but Honda’s about 15 years past its golden age of pocket rockets. After the DC4/5 Integras (and to a lesser extent the K20-equipped Civic Si) they just seemed to lose all passion to innovate.

Those jokes would be funnier if VTEC was a crappy system, rather than a groundbreaking performance technology now found throughout the automotive world (even if it didn’t make 1.8 liter I-4s faster than V8s), yo.

Is it really any more risk-inducing than a 290 hp sedan though?

“two adults and two kids?”

Nipping puppies are a different proposition from an attack. We have a boisterous little guy at home, and what works most is simply not tolerating it. He’s trying to play but is also working on some dominance-centered social skills. Making an “Ow!” or similar noise works, because it’s how dogs socialize each other. Or
