Gift cards are just the dumbest thing. We’ve somehow let companies trick us into thinking that cash is a bad gift, but cash that can only be spent at 1 company isn’t? Just give people cash. 

Let me break it down for you:

#22 steal content from reddit so that you don’t even have to ask your site’s commenters to do the work.

Verdict: completely unuseful.

Ugh.  Too bad it’s a slideshow, so we’ll never see any of them...

#21, using a slideshow instead of real content

Can we get a “10,000 times movies chased Bond” write up as well.

Hard agree on the “Apologize” one. My father never particularly wanted kids, but basically ended up raising my sister and me by himself due to my mother’s mental health issues... His solution to having no idea what he was doing was to treat us like actual people.

You’re right, there’s no sexism in this country, just racism.

first thought? must be nice to have a rich family...

Good grief.  You bought a bottom dollar worn out GTI.  Get a nicer one.  Get a 2010-11 with the TSI (be sure tensioner’s been replaced) or a 2012+.  David, you’re lovely, but generalizing about VW’s like that is what kept me afraid of them for so long.

I agree that this looks SUPER bad for him, but in his position I would 100% not talk to the police either. There are zero upsides and many, many, many downsides. 

If the police ever want to interview you for something where there’s even the remotest chance you could be a suspect, you need to lawyer up. Cops are interested in clearing cases and naming suspects for DA”s to charge, not necessarily in getting to the truth. 

“and lawyered up right away”

Yes, it is terrible when people have the nerve to exercise their Constitutional rights and it clearly means they are guilty rather than following their attorney’s advice.

The big difference is that Jeep owners bolt random crap to their car and just make it worse or look like a poser with the body matching color trim, lifted to the sky Jeep with 40s and enough lights to keep a city going at night.

This is a perfect example of why - why, why, why - you need to stop with the carousels or give us an option to not use them. The tweet/graphic is getting covered by the navigation every, single time. End the carousel; give us choice. Stop the insanity.

My only advice to parents is to avoid slideshows on Kinja.

Where is the number in the title? Surprise slideshows are even worse than ones you know are coming.
