Put the Holden nose on it.  It looks much better.

The original Pontiac GTO was nothing more than bland, tarted-up Tempest... This fella was in keeping with that tradition, like it or not.

That’s actually....very sound advice, and I’m surprised I’ve never made this realization before. I think I will need to write this on the wall of my garage, and probably also across the windshield of the drift car.

Took the words right out of my mouth, I always laugh at this argument.

LOL - the original GTO was literally a LeMans with a big engine and no aggressive styling. True, it changed it later iterations with scoops and decals, but what was Pontiac routinely derided for in the years before the 2004 GTO came out?

A huge part of me wants to CP this thing, because I always resented the nerve GM had to slap GTO on this. The Australian heritage had nothing to with it. I always felt this seemed a bit too bland and generic to deserve reviving the GTO name. Call it a Grand Prix or a LeMans just not the GTO. I always felt the GTO…

What’s worse is she basically assumed this person’s gender, she’s such a bigot. 

I appreciate “journalist as a child” in conjunction with “Filed to: Hopey Changey Stuff”... Nothing says mature professional like low minded drivel... 

BREAKING: White woman says black man doesn’t know anything about a subject he’s intimately familiar with, immediately falls back on the “you can’t say shit to me because I’m a white woman” excuse the second she gets called out on it.

You sure stirred up the writers, they warmed up their sock puppet accounts and everything! 

This can’t be said enough. We’ve voiced our displeasure at myopic, click-bait, edge-lord articles by nearly everyone at Splinter. I can think of specific moments where HamNo, Rafi and Katherine have posted some really terrible, half-baked shit and I’ve let them know. The fact that Libby is a young woman has fuckall to…

I thought you guys were just bloggers, though.

“Is Professional”

The rare feat of getting a Gawker writer to be a pariah in the usually fawning comments of their own blog. Congrats, you punctured the echo chamber.

Woman gets called out. Can’t defend her position. Play gender card! You’d do well over at the Root.

Not when that 28-year-old journalist is spouting the political opinions of a 15-year-old.

Nope, sorry, not sexist.  And I’d be the first to call it that if it was.

I wish I could give you a bunch of stars because your original comment is utterly and completely gender neutral. Hopefully one day she will learn that pulling out the sexist card in such a manner is very harmful.

Ageist? Maybe, though an understandable mistake based on your childish blog posts. Sexist? That’s you projecting. Journalist? Not even close.

Acting like a child isn’t a gendered quality. Nice try, child.
