To me, the 2 door Matador goes to the top of the “WTF were they thinking?” list of car designs. The weird front end and general shape of it are just awful, and then they added those giant wheelwells, which NASCAR tires filled pretty well. Most of the other cars in the list were pretty bad too, but AMC in general…

Jordan is just an embarrassment. I’m ashamed to be from the same state he’s from. WTF is wrong with the morons who keep voting him back in?

WTF is going on with these rental companies not updating their stolen vehicle reports? They should be sued in this case for sure, along with the over the top cops involved. As soon as it was found the truck wasn’t stolen, it should have been, “Sorry, have a nice day!”, but they (cops everywhere it seems like)can’t…

The worst food prep related injury I’ve ever heard of happened to a friend of mine who was a paraplegic. He was very independent, did all kinds of stuff you might be surprised that he could and would do. One afternoon, he was making spaghetti sauce on the stove. His dog was begging to be fed, and he got into a rush…

I sliced myself on one of those covers so badly it looked like someone had their throat slit and their blood drained into the sink. It remains the bloodiest injury I ever had in the kitchen or with food. But worse was the time I was building a PC and got my thumb and index finger sliced to the bone when I slipped…

The Culver’s I go to about 2-3 times a month rarely screws up my orders anymore. When it first opened up, they messed them up all the time. I check the stuff every single time, if I don’t, they put cheese or some sort of disgusting goop on them and they are trash to me. I thought when the screens appeared to show what…

Grape Nuts aren’t nearly as hard as they used to be. I guess that’s why I stopped eating them. They kind of wussed them up. 

The worst stuff I ever drove in was in March of ‘82, in the Pierre, SD area. We had a new ‘82 Chevy Blazer with great tires, and it had some problems taking off from a stop, and especially stopping, as the top of the snow was melting and refreezing to glass. But the main problems were the dead cattle lying in the…

Being old and handicapped, that one real Pepsi a week is one of the highlights of my life at this point. The Pepsi Zero Sugar is one of only a very few diet pops/sodas I can even tolerate. I’m still pissed Culver’s went to Coke. I just get tea there anymore.

I never even thought for a second that new Coke was “Pepsi like”. It was just a little different. I have always preferred Pepsi over Coke. No soda I have ever tasted was worse than Diet Dr. Pepper, even that (At least to me) awful Stevia stuff, supposedly sweetened (Not to me) with it. It reminds me of some awful…

I haven’t stopped at a rest stop in many years, but I did see some horrible ones back when I did a lot of traveling.

It was a long time ago, so it might not be easily found. I’ll look for it. The story didn’t get much press because something big happened in LA the same night. I can’t remember what it was anymore. I’ll see if my friend has a link to the story.

I was roommates with a guy for a year who besides not being real sharp, was so gullible it was just amazing. At the end of the year, our lease was up and I definitely didn’t want to spend another year living with him in the same apartment. A few years after I moved out, some girl ripped him off for thousands of…

He died at 92, quick and pretty much painless. He had just eaten lunch and told the kid, “Get your mom, something’s wrong!”, and that was it. He was driving and walking the dog 3 miles a day. I wouldn’t mind making it to 92 if I was like he was at that age.

We had a girl who lived down the street from us when I was in jr/high school who was not right, she would do almost anything for fast food and/or cigarettes. Her mom walked into the house one morning to get something she had forgotten to take to work with her, and saw her having sex with some 16 year old kid (She was…

He doesn’t annoy me, I didn’t know this was a thing.

My mother was infamous for getting herself lost and just really being unaware of where she was when driving or just riding. She would also fixate on something happening ahead that had nothing to do with the car she was in at all, but she would slam the brakes on for no reason, and if she was riding, she would grab at…

There are a lot of C8s in the NW Ohio area, and I still haven’t gotten to the point of not muttering, “Is that thing the best GM could do?”. Like the Camaro, it seems purposely made ugly.

I was at the local Pontiac/GMC dealership getting my car worked on. I was talking to the service manager, trying to solve the fuel line issues I had on my car. About 50 feet away, a brand new Sierra 1500 was being lifted for some sort of “adjustment”, and BLAM, it came off and the owner, the service manager, and…

A family friend didn’t know how to do so many things it was shocking. He lived at home, went into WWII, came home, got married, and his wife wrote the checks, cooked, washed, etc. He just made the money. They were married almost 57 years when she suddenly died. He was totally lost for a long time afterwards and would…
