Here is some limited sample kind of anecdotal data for you guys. I’ve been driving my car in eco mode this entire tank. According to the OBC I have averaged 26.8 mpg all city with the exception of about 10 miles on highway at rush hour. There is a fair share of slopes but nothing crazy (Denver metro). The thing is,…

Goddamn. But yeah, let’s socialize industrial externalities by reducing environmental regulation.

Having her appear at all next to the First Lady is what gives her the legitimacy. If she shows up on the same screen as Mrs. Obama—if Michelle Obama has to make time in her schedule and make plans to sit down with this living, talking sex doll—she has already won.

“This god-awful shitbox that was designed to exclusively appeal to old people, couldn’t outrun roadkill”

No, the objectification of women won’t change if y’all keep justifying it. Nothing is going to change if you just shrug your shoulders and say “well, shit happens”. Getting a little annoyed about something and demanding a change within your own community is how we got stuff like voting rights for people who weren’t…

It’s messed up that anyone in this country has to worry about healthcare.

They would have seen a spike on the telemetry (pic is not from the incident)

It’s not just for cars. Computers fall into that “creep”

But bullies do what they do because they have some kind of psychological need, not because of anything the bullied have…

Sure, it would eat into the pedestrian lane, but they should have the bike lane slalom around the poles.

Teaching kids personal finance is pointless. It used to be done, but studies have shown that students don’t retain the information because it doesn’t have any direct application of what they are learning for another 10 years.

Silver Spring (no ‘s’). And people there don’t have anything resembling a “Ball-moor” accent.

Roads are shite because the gas tax hasn’t gone up in 25 years and it was designed to pay for these things. Can’t raise gas prices though because it’ll murder your run for office. In addition states and municipalities are responsible for road repair and maintenance, not the Federal government.

Having grown up in Michigan during the height of the real energy crisis and the flight of auto manufacturing, my perspective is that many are adhering to an outdated notion that “Made in America” is still a thing and that it is worth holding on to. The auto industry and labor unions marched together into that crisis…

In the US we do not punish people for the “sins of their fathers”.

‘what about Hillary’.

Oh you’re fucked? Let’s just fuck you even harder.

Dealer kept trying to say they needed to run a credit check to make sure I can get that price.

Ew.

I get that it’s a tradition for $kaycog to post her COTD pics but we can at least tone down the creep factor with the replies
