Fair enough.

Egh... Five cylinders isn't ideal with the layout of Audi's quattro drivetrains. V6's make more sense from a handling standpoint, since there's less overhanging the front axle.

Unless this is going to be transverse? Which wouldn't really be quattro anymore?

Transmission. All transmission.

The Audi transmission would have allowed for a longitudinally mounted mid engined setup.

The main difference being that the 969 (if it used the engine and transmission from an Audi v8 of that era) would have been mid engined, not rear engined.

Oh, someone's online presence implies that their life is perfect?

This is so appallingly uncommon.

C'mon. Everyone's instagram shows the charmed life of delicious meals and fun activities. Mine is all about building interesting fun things, making delicious foods, and having fun times. It in no way reflects the fact

Ummmm Microaggression theory is what proposes that microaggression/hostility exist. It's not firm, and it's not law. It's a proposal, though reasonable. You can't put the "this exists, so there is a theory about it" aside from "the theory is what suggest that they exist". I'll GRANT microaggression. Because I believe

Yes. (I'm shallow, not proud.)

Context: actually not negative. In the context which it is played, literally by a bell in an ice cream truck, is it racist? It's not being played as "N***** love a watermelon". It's being played as "ding-ding-ding ding ding, ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding".

Perception? Have you talked to any "AA's" about it? I

Micro aggression requires action that not only makes someone uncomfortable, but also is directed (specifically or not, intentionally or not) at them. Without the context that you literally learned this morning, this isn't the case here. Micro Aggression is a theory... And you're saying that this song, that isn't

It's an inline six turbo hybrid with all wheel drive

Right. Intent, context, and perception are all involved.

The problem I have with beer goggles isn't that I smoosh faces with unattractive people, but that I decide to make out with people who are kind of awful people.

This is the most effective way for the Mets to get runs?

I'm pretty sure that's her O face.

This is the best reply from anyone to my comment.

Nope. Sorry, but that's idiotic.

First: The Sterling comments.

Look, yeah, that was super racist. But it actually detracted from the super racist things he'd done in the past that actually had an impact (more than insulting his biracial mistress.) like kicking minorities out of his housing, creating a bigger homeless

If I'm a privileged white asshole, you're an antisemitic fool crybaby.

Good day.

It seems you missed my point entirely.

Okay, then how about "Mary Poppins"?

Or how about those racist trope crows in "Dumbo"?

Or how about "Maybe think before you reply, and reply in the spirit of the conversation"?

There's a voice of reason on here? It's sadly getting drowned out.

Again, you've totally missed the point.

The entire issue is a red herring. Were you aware, before this became popular on the internet a few days ago, of any racist implications of the song? My point is that it was a non-issue... And that racism is about intent and perception. But, you'd rather call me a "white
