The previous trucks still required maintenance. A battery change every 10 years is pretty damn good, especially when the cost is amortized.

The Model S and the upcoming Model X wouldn't fit the bill, however, Tesla could easily add a customized body on top of their skateboard-like platform to make an excellent mail truck.

Small, cheap, and slow as hell? Sounds perfect for an electric conversion. If the resulting vehicle isn't any faster, at least it's more efficient.

It would be great for starting a local courier service.

I was hoping to find you in here, I always like seeing you speak on your difficulties with the parking situation with the van. I think it carries more weight, in that it actually happens to real people, and it's not just "Hey don't park there."

I've started calling the cops if I see people there for more than a few…

First of all thank you Jason for taking the time to explain the purpose of those lines. While most Jalops realize that they are there so that folks in wheelchairs can have extra space especially if they need to deploy a ramp, it seems far too many people just think they are an "extra space."

White (car) privilege?

Mr. Bells' celiac was diagnosed because he gets an associated skin condition called dermatitis herpetiformis. Don't google it while you're eating, but if your bumps/rash is itchy and blistery, that might be you.

My cousin also has Celiac!! (it feels weird to use exclamation marks but I'mma go with it) I've never once heard him utter the words "gluten free" or "gluten sensitive" he just orders what he knows he can eat and doesn't share his stomach issues with the world.

My boss (who has both Celiac and Crohn's) says the same thing! She's just happy that she has so many more food options these days because gluten-free is so 'trendy.' Though I guess it's gonna be a bummer when the food industry moves on to a new fad. :(

Yeah, that's how Mr. Bells feels. He can eat at almost any restaurant around Seattle! Nobody looks at him funny when he asks about ingredients! But on the flip side he has to hear people like that dude, who apparently has no idea what gluten is, yammer on about it.

I lived close enough to the UP in St Louis that we had to use sticky on the backs of the pictures on the walls, the trains would shake them crooked.

I am a working cook, as well as an instructor at a culinary school in Canada. I regularly reference BCO in class, trying to prepare my students for the unbelievable fuck-wittery waiting for them out in the 'real' world. These poor kids have no idea what awaits them...

I truly feel for people who have real food allergies. I'm sure their lives are 100x harder becasue of having to deal with all the crazies and their made up food issues like "whole nut allergies" and phantom "gluten sensitivity" that make it harder for them to be taken seriously.

This is a prime example of the dangers of brakes on cars.

That 31 year old colleague sounds like they are more emotionally and socially liberated than you.

Chocolate milk is delicious and essentially just cold hot chocolate. I will drink it for the rest of my life.

If living in Hollywood and driving a 30-year old and 10-year old cars are your ideas of having lots of wealth, you have some pretty low standards.

oh hey, glad you all like the video. there will be more.

I try to be as little as a sociopath as possible, probably because the game is set in my real life neighborhoods, and my actual RL cars are in the game under the names of Futo and Fusilade, and Michael beats down Fabien with a laptop at the coffee shop my girlfriend and I frequent, so everything just hits really close…
