The Hyundai is uglier.  Simple as that.

I mean, these were the same people who bemoaned emissions controls, catalytic converters, airbags, ABS and unleaded fuel.

“The operation went off without a hitch”

Not a big deal but gasoline taxes are mostly diverted to other non-road expenses already. And damage to roads is primarily a result of temperature cycling, poor initial foundations, and heavy trucks. Making a small change to passenger vehicle weight won’t make a difference.

While drones are obviously an incredibly stupid idea, seizing their vehicles and clearing the way is not. And fuck comparing these big dumb babies to BLM.

“People willing to beta test our lives is crazy” - fixed

Smaller ships through different ports.

In my experience it’s a two way street. It’s very easy to blame your spouse for “taking advantage” of behavior that you’ve internalized while growing up. That’s for you to fix. If you can get the point where you own your emotions and are able to set boundaries, and your partner still doesn’t get it, then it’s time to…

just google treadmill and child injury and you’ll see that it’s been going on way longer than Peloton got into the game.  That said, I always put away the safety rod you need to operate the treadmill along with unplugging it.  

Agree on the Subaru comment, a Baja or even Brat would be more useful.  I’m failing to see the utility of a 48" bed over the back of a wagon.  Looks like you’ve sacrificed the utility of a truck AND the benefits of a wagon to get something that’s good at neither.  Oh and this is not a truck, it’s no better than a…

Nobody has voted Rivian yet, so there’s my vote. I like that truck, it has plenty of big time funding, it's not ridiculous looking, there have been numerous production ready prototypes out and about, and they’re built in the old Talon/Eclipse factory (that gets my sentimental vote). They’ve established a little bit of…

I think this is a pretty typical middle class view of the pandemic. Many are happily working at their traditionally office-based jobs from home, while an underclass of service industry and manufacturing workers have either had their livelihoods crushed or been forced to continue working in potentially unsafe…

Housing is a human right. You should not feel bad about finding a place to live. We all need a place to live. Gentrification doesn’t have one cause, but I’d argue that the primary driver of it is severe restriction on housing supply, especially in suburbs, that has not allowed supply to keep up with demand. With…

Geez! Here I’ve been living and driving in Canada, thinking I knew about the virtues of AWD. But I never really knew about how useless it is until a person from Houston dropped some anecdotal knowledge on me about the one time they drove in the snow. 

Jason, you’re small, it's not something that really affects you, but yes, it is easier.

Neutral:

I like it. I don’t wanna ever go back. I now know conclusively I can do more actual work in a day from home than I ever could going to work. Plus, I ditched all that bullshit “it’s not work but if it wasn’t for work I wouldn’t be doing it” time suck, like commuting, putting on ‘work’ attire, eating out, etc., so for…

It’s not going to be Abrams

I had relatives in Georgia who had neighbors who firmly believed “The South will Rise Again” nonsense. Confederate flags in the windows, the whole 9 yards.

I didn’t say she would court them. I said she’s a counter for for the boot-lickers. Their argument of “Dems hate cops” or “they want to get rid of the police” becomes even more hollow. And the “Kamala is a Cop” reductionist crowd wasn’t going to vote for Biden anyway, so fuck them.
