Well, the Uber defence squad seems to have moved in on this post.

Stupid, maybe. But it’s exactly what Uber did in Kansas when laws regarding background checks on drivers didn’t go their way.

Oh, hey, I’ve met Captain Patch-it a few times, at PAX Aus, dude carries as much rattle and tools as I do. He’s even got business cards. On the back, it says:

Yeah, gotta say, it’s a pretty unfortunate name. If I bought one, you can bet I’d be telling people it was a W650 custom, rather than using the proper name.

Not even. What about Kurupt or NASTY8, the Kei-utes and burnout comp regulars? Both of them have thrashed WTOFIT.

That’s because you’re confused as to what a Burnout is. That up there, No offence to Raph, that’s not a burnout. That’s pissweak rubbish, and speaking an an Australian, fucking insulting. There’s no movement, no tip-in, no nothing - it’s just spinning wheels and no excitement whatsoever. If you’re not slipping.…

“And instead of asking themselves how they can make their cab service more attractive than Uber to win back business, their answer is to just ban Uber so customers no longer have the choice.”

I’ll admit, that’s one that baffles me in my city. Cab companies keep demanding we ban Uber. But Uber’s already banned, 100%…

“then it’s another example of experts in one field with an unwarranted belief that they understand an entirely unrelated field.”

Let’s just say there’s a really fucking good reason why one of the more common nicknames for Bitcoins outside of bitcoin fans is “Dunning-Krugerrands”.

Well, surely the best answer is someone else’s.

Ah, the famous Bar-Jarz method. Invented in melbourne, in the 1970s.

It’s true, but the work just isn’t there. You either pretend to be an American and sneak in the side door(Simon Baker), or you luck out and get to be the small handful who get big movie roles(Chris Helmsworth, Hugh Jackman), or you go hungry. They don’t even get Australians to play Australians, for fuck’s sake, they…

That kind of works, except Sam worthington is rediculously tallented. He got stuck with a few shitty American action movies, but 90% of his output is really fucking good.

I haven’t auditioned. Mostly because Australians in Hollywood operate like the Sith - Only ever two, there are.

Not so much “track down” as “accidentally stumbled across”, but yeah. A 1990 Nissan Vanette - while not as rare here as they are in the US(where, let’s be blunt, they were all recalled and crushed because of a tiny problem where they’d spontaneously catch fire), still not the most common vehicle. Rock solid, and…

That’s actually how they powered the car. Engine was still fucked, it was just Vin Diesel flinstoning it.

FUN? You want FUN in your movies? I demand nothing but the most rigorous accuracy! I had fun, once, it was just ghastly!

Which was a smart move too late - the numerous DLC packs fractured the community, and between that and the god-awful matchmaking(what’s that? A team of people at literally the highest rank achivable all on one team? Better team them against a bunch of newbies!) it stright-up killed the game almost entirely.

Huh, I’m going Seven for ten right now. I’m only missing the Cadillac(impossible to find in Australia, to the point where I’m almost entirely sure there isn’t any), the Silver Shadow (Ditto), and the Mustang Mach 1 (rare, and generally not desired enough for import considering the local ford sedans of the time.)

Polyurathane steering rack bushings is a good one, and reminds me of a minor mod of my own - my vehicle took an odd size of bushing, and it was a pain to get. Using the wrong ones not only felt odd, but wore them out real fast. And worst of all, they were a titanic pain in the arse to replace.

Could just make it the current Hoonicorn. Drop a Ford GT replica body on the Hoonicorn’s custom tube frame, and it’s a Ford GT about as much as it’s currently a Mustang.
