It boggles my mind that “Wonderful Christmastime” by Paul McCartney didn’t make this list. One of the most mind-numbingly awful songs ever made.

Trust me, I am well aware. ;-P

I’ll have to disagree as well. Smoked a pack a day for about 4 years, then picked up vaping about 3 years ago. The first few devices I used weren’t very high quality and it didn’t stick, but once I got into the hobby enough to get a quality box mod and tank, I was able to slowly ween off cigarettes. At first I was…

It’s like Avenue Q and Hot Fuzz had drunken unprotected sex 9 months ago...

Still need to go back for finishing session to fill in a couple spots and add motion lines for the needle, but it’s my first tattoo and one I designed myself. It means a lot to me and is a great conversation starter because whenever people ask about the meaning behind the text, I get to tell them about Colin McRae.

Impreza will handle paved surfaces with a bit of a sportier feel, but the Crosstrek will handle high accumulated snow better due to the higher ground clearances.

Both are great choices. :-)

I may be contacting you in the future when myself and the lady are ready to put money down on 2007-2011 Honda Element EX AWD. We have Special Needs kids and we’ve already test driven a couple of them so we’re confident in our choice of car. We also know that they’re not super common in the trim we want with low…

The Southeast is sort of in-between. We have a bit of a Cold War going on between the Hoonigans and the more mature-minded enthusiasts.

My city struggled with this for quite a while. I live in a part of the country that is near the mountains, has no inspections, no emissions testing, and cheap sales tax on cars, so it has become a bit of a low-key mecca for gearheads. This is awesome for the casual scene, but has become a bit of a headache at night…

This is the primary reason I left my position as a technician at a franchise repair chain and accepted a position at an independent repair shop that pays straight clock hours. On paper, I make a couple dollars an hour less, but doing the math, even though I make a couple dollars less per hour, I actually average a…

I’m white, and my father is white, but we’re going through a similar estrangement. I admit myself to be fairly socially liberal and I subscribe very much to factual evidence and objective statistics. My father used to consider himself similarly, though even more socially liberal than me. Growing up, my father was a…

Everything I’ve done to my car to make is faster or handle better has made it louder (interior-wise) and less comfortable.

Worth it for me, though.

Shifter cable end loop on my old Saturn failed. Saturn refused to sell just the end loop and would only sell you the entire shifter cable assembly for many, many monies. At that point in time, there were no aftermarket alternatives, despite this being a common issue.  

I drove around for the next 8 months with a…

 I feel like mine is the ideal size for myself and the occasional passenger. Removing the rear seats and installing a flat floor in their place has given me all the cargo space I’ve ever needed for 99% of the time. It’s easy to drive, easy to park, easy to see out of, has plenty of interior passenger space, and is…

I’d like to think I’ve already started down the right path by fitting Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S’ to my 1997 Ford Thunderbird 4.6 for rallycross use.

It looks like an old man who’s pissed off that he can’t find his upper denture plate.

This just in:

Watch a hipster in skinny shorts plank on a fixie while his sketchie friend in a tank-top distractedly films it with a vintage video camera instead of using both hands to steer his moped.

We should talk about how this show deserves an Emmy for the sound design alone during the main battle.

And i09. i09 is awesome and needs to stay as well.

I’m a manager at a newer pizza joint in Greenville, SC. You see my Mini in the parking lot? Come in, ask for Desu, and I’ll get you 50% off right then and there for being a Jalop.
