I have a 2011 Optima- and Kia replaced the engine after it blew itself up at 89k miles. So now I have an old Kia with a new engine just in time for everything else to fall apart.

Nickel mining is nasty business. This one Canadian city is one of the few examples of a place that has recovered decently... after becoming a blackened wasteland. http://viewpointmining.com/article/the-reclamation-of-sudbury

There’s a coffee shop pushing ‘Cruffins’ in DFW

It’s a little steep- almost double the price of the same bottle of Sriracha. I’m curious to try it but less interested in extra sugar lately.

I have those Anker Earbuds and they’re great. I’ve already lost two of the earbuds. Your listed price of $36 doesn’t seem to show up for me though. And the header image is some other model? Pretty weird.

Was your point a few posts ago that DOA was influential because it declared that autotune was over or played out? Because the links I provided showed that this was largely Kanye’s doing, proving that he had a big hand in something you cited as influential without your knowing.  

Well... Bad point then.

I thought it was related to the economy because of the consolidation of formerly independent companies under gigantic corporate structures.

You should look further into that Death of Autotune song when talking about how Kanye doesn’t have any influence.

This looks fucking awesome. Kia/Hyundai have the best user interface of all current automakers and the styling looks better than most everything else available.

This sounds fine. I’ve found every hot item I’ve had from Starbucks tastes “microwaved with care.”

When I saw “Regular,” I assumed Mr. Regular.

Rad.  Do you customize often?

The Bugle 2012-2015 is still incredibly funny. New episodes can really range in quality, but some episodes are golden- Alice Fraser is amazing.
