Haha yes, thank you to my fellow wallowers. I watched Michelle’s speech and had a good cry and now I’m ready to go high again.

My dream is someone leaks his full tax return, his lenders call in their debts, he loses all liquidity, the value of his businesses plummets because of the damage to his reputation and brand, and Melania leaves him. Then he has to move to some hotbed of Trumpism and has to get taken in by some broke ass racists and…

You are my hero.

That’s what I like about BMW personally. They’re distinctive but don’t overdo the styling/changes on any generation so they don’t look automatically outdated when the next gen comes out. I like the commitment of it.

I really love this! I’ve been enjoying the “interview an expert” type posts, like this and the one about Drake’s vocal coach. I would love to see more like this!

I really really love that Ice T is his SUV character in real life too. I could hear it in the character’s voice when i read the tweet. So good!

I don’t know if you live in the twin cities, but I recently saw someone come to a full stop on an on-ramp to 77 near the MOA. Traffic was going about 70. Still wondering how that turned out cause it was a beater.

Thanks! It’s such a great looking car IMO.

How do you like it? I like the styling and interior is high quality, but when I test drove it, it was oddly sluggish in the lower gears and I took it off my list for a dieselgate replacement.  

Yeah I have one Norwegian Forest Cat (who is maybe 2 cats worth of cat really) and a little black cat and it is a constant battle to keep my house from being completely covered in fuzz. Some areas simply have to be relegated to perma-fuzz aka “the cat chair.”

Meanwhile, their lawyers are currently passing notes to each other like horny sadists.

Awesome, thank you so much!! Really appreciate it. Everyone in my social group are Corolla types who could never fathom wanting to spend money on a car so I have no one to ask!

I don’t think you’ve shown that! If Norway was just oil rich but not Socialist they’d have an economy more like ours, with extreme wealth and extreme poverty, but in reality they have the highest average income and highest overall quality of life in the world. So what if cost of living is higher -- wouldn’t you want…

But IL tops even MN for employment level and income, so how does that explain WI’s plight in your analysis?

Ha! Very nice to know. The Audi sales people I’ve spoken to have also taken that same view, which is pretty refreshing. I hear you exactly on the “zippy” daily driver vibe of the A3 compared to the roominess and performance of the 3-Series. I’ve never owned a luxury car or anything “performance” oriented so the BMW…

Seems to be the only way to get a promotion as well. I’ve technically been rapidly “promoted” over the last 3 years, but only because I changed employers twice.

How do you like the A3? I’m considering either A3 or 328xi. Don’t love the idea of a 320 for whatever reason though I haven’t test driven one yet. Did you tune it at all? Mostly leaning toward the 328 because of the roomier back seat for my parents/friends.

Individual capitalist altruism results in one person shaping which causes are funded, rather than democratically determining how to do the most good for the most people. It’s great that Mark Zuckerberg wants to donate $3 billion to fighting disease, but is this the very best possible application of those resources?…

Ayn is that you??? A world without altruism is one I don’t wish to inhabit. How do you explain that Norway has the highest Gross National Income (GNI) per capita in the world? Their’s is $103,630 and they are also ranked as having the highest standard of living in the world. The U.S GNI is $53,960, ranked 11th. I…

I obviously agree wholeheartedly that at this juncture we desperately need to do everything possible to defeat DT (i.e. VOTING FOR HILLARY CLINTON FOR THE LOVE OF GOD), but this attitude is partly what got us into this situation. People feel completely ignored and overlooked by our political system and government, and…
