That grill looks like it’s wearing a retainer. Electric cars are clearly going through their teenage years.

No opinion either way regarding coloured tops but that Jag looks like it has a bald patch on its head. The ford looks like it needs a cigar and some sherry. Nice!

Does that Nissan Terra also overheat?

true. Agree with the ring circuit point. I should’ve been cleared that I meant the ring circuit as a solution to a post war copper shortage while simultaneously supporting rapid mass electrification.

That is almost pornographic. them brits indulged in some good ingenuity in that period. like the ingenious BS1363 plug (and ring circuit)design. or the jet engine. or radar. or colossus.

at least it looks like it cleans up after itself

Been using WorkRave for a while. does the same as above and is free and open source as well. Also lets you set time limits as well as number of hours of the day after which it suggests switching off. Gives exercise tips during the longer break as well! That said, I appear to have developed a pavlovian response to the…

My dad has a story about Brazil. He was invited by the government to give a talk at an environmental summit (back in 1992).

mea culpa. heat of the moment and all that. I would edit the original but since kinja doesn’t allow edits after some time, have to put my apology for that here instead. In hindsight, should’ve reviewed my reply a few times before clicking publish.

Why does <Insert Country Here> need <insert complex geopolitical requirement> when they should spend it on <insert some other unrelated problem> instead?

it would have been more useful if they hadn’t put the fuel filler cap deep inside as well making it an absolute chore at your local Gaskinov Ztation. Government backed muggings while refuelling were common due to this flaw/feature.

An employee healthplan that covers eye tests?

I googled this. Either my morning coffee needs to be stronger or the world is so utterly crazy that I thought it possible. Would make an excellent movie though, as the Kalashnikovs chase our hero in an actual fiat. If only they didnt keep breaking down, they could get their man!

like putting wingflaps on a di/bikini. superfluous bits that unnecessarily extend the coverage of the essential bits. Or lots of giant bottle openers near the rim edge.

Is the Stig an optional extra?

hahaha Spectacular. Consider this message a second star for that since I can only click once for the star.

Leopards can be beaten, as can cheetahs. Tragically, they often are. some dogs would be harder to beat than them!

The mooching roommate also has a bomb which is within range of your capital city. The scary logic of mutually assured destruction does not apply to unhinged dictators with nothing to lose.

It’s called Creative Accounting.
