What can I even say? This is horrible, and there's nothing I can do to change the situation. A friend of mine who is Irish (as in, he was born there) had this to say: "see, that's Ireland - real nice place so long as you don't challenge the ruling opinions".

You know, I really don't get this mindset. Do you really only buy a car to be able to beat other cars? Like, you buy a V6 Mustang, or possibly a 4-cylinder Esprit, and it's probably going to be great fun to drive. What does it matter that other cars are faster than you?

In the art world, everyone is always supposed to be striving for... something, I suppose. I only know it by proxy. I'm a carpenter myself, and I'm damn well gonna be pleased with a well-made fitting!

Apparently, because "beauty is inspirational" - you know their excuse for all this - they want the models to have an "air of longing about them". Also playing into this is that being satisfied with oneself is generally seen as a moral failure in high art circles. Quotes from a friend of mine who is trying to make a…

Because having more BSG would take time away from pressing supernatural investigations. I, for one, cannot go to bed without knowing if some mansion in the Everglades, or possibly a trailer park in Nevada, is haunted or not. People want to know these things!

Now THAT'S how you do the "rogue-ish charm" thing that completely bland celebrities are so often credited with.

You know, I'm ok with prostitution as it's presented here. I guess I'm also ok with paying for sex. As long as you're not keeping it a secret from your partner. If you jsut cannot get laid at all, I think paying for sex is a prefectly acceptable option, or maybe you just want sex but find relationships tiresome or too…

You're right, this might well be a factory fitment issue. One body panel doesn't mean that much probably.

Wow, he works that steering wheel something fierce.

I think this is quite a good-looking car. Nice, clean lines, rounded but no jellybean. It's just a little too big overall for the design, but other than that I think it pulls off the fast luxury look well.

I spot a crooked door on that AMC (see where the trim doesn't align)? If looking at many questionably restored muscle cars at shows has taught me anything, it's that ill-fitting body parts are a tell-tale sign of the popular American "good enough" work standard. Who knows what else the paint hides, bc it definitely…

But does a Honda Fit look as good as either of these (debatable)? Will it turn as many heads (definite no)? I really don't get this "muscle car or gtfo" mind set when it comes to classic cars. Who cares if a Honda Fit can beat you at a light when you're riding in style.

Oh, I posted this too. Just saw you beat me to it. I love the Packards of the day. Three-tone paint is delighfully 50s, especially in white-pink-black (from top to bottom).

I love the Packards from this era, especially the Caribbean. The lines are much straighter and cleaner than on my contemporary cars, and don't you just love that color scheme? makes for perfect contrast, and looks way better than an all-pink car.

Pantera. My bf and I both love it, because apparently we're still 15 inside.

Ha, Led Zeppelin. I had all of my teenage sex with Physical Graffiti or In Through the Out Door blasting in the background.

I mean this absolutely free of any judgement or snark, but does anybody else think Gillard looks more and more like Angela Merkel? Or is it just me (bc according to my bf, I find similarities where there are none all the time)?

To be fair, 100+ hp is probably not too shabby in India. You'll definitely leave Tata Nanos and ancient Ambassadors in the dust.

Oh, he's one of those guys. Seriously, the people who believe the government is out to harass them, and them specifically, are sad even by conspiracy nut standards. If you believe in Illuminati and NWO, that's crazy - but at least it kind of makes sense (people always want power and nebulous shadow players do exist).

I made the same discovery when my bf and I watched them back to back in preparation for Skyfall recently. I maintain that the plane chase scene was sort of stupid though. Not that it wasn't exciting, but it bent the rules of probability way hard, even by Bond standards (though not quite as hard as the computer stuff…
