My grandfather was an 80's era Cadillac enthusiast, so there will never be another kind of land yacht for me. Sinking into the plush velour of an ‘86 Eldo. That was luxury. Haha.

Yeah. I used to park in a municipal parking garage with all of the cops and firefighters, and me, in my 2008 Honda Fit, had trouble maneuvering around all of these giant ass trucks parked in two spots and stuck out way into the middle of the middle lane.  I don’t know how any of them actually got in and out of that…

I was SO into this show when it was on Toonami, and my tween self was all about it. I remember going over to a friend’s house and realizing that it was the finale episode and completely freaking out over it. Many many years later, I tracked down an uncensored version and rediscovered it, only to find that it was…

Turkey is all fine and good in our family, but the noodles are the one irreplaceable part of the Thanksgiving table. Thin egg noodles made with the turkey drippings, broth, and lots and butter.

Sorry, I misunderstood when they were talking about the reverence for him. Haha. 

AGREED. Seeing them messing around during the last couple of videos has given me life.

If Spielberg is still hands-on with the writing, this all makes sense. He’s been looking backwards and yelling at the kids to get off of his lawn for a decade or two now.

You know, my 2008 Fit Sport needs a facelift...

That’s a no from me. My family is complicated anyway, so I think it’s a good idea to take a year off. My 60 yo parents are in a deep red town, and while they are abiding by restrictions, the people they do have contact with certainly aren’t. My sister’s family has been exposed just because her husband is a teacher…

Here in Central Illinois, you get a lot of American muscle. My city has an old Route 66 parade and cruise every year, and between muscle cars and hot rods, there’s not much else (no shade, they are all lovely). My hometown, a few hours south, loves rat rods and hardscrabble restorations of Mustangs of all ages. I’m…

An inspiring and beautiful article. Love your stuff, sir. Keep on being awesome.

I’m not an Apple devotee or anything, but Ted Lasso is the best show I’ve seen in the last four years EASILY.

Same for me. It’s a great eating apple, but in all of my trials (apple cake, apple galette, applesauce) it also holds up really well! I throw a little lemon juice in if I need a little tartness, but otherwise, also a good baking apple!

In the words of my dad, “Does your nose run and your feet smell? Well, by god, you’re built upside-down!”

They also kind of add this to the canon, in that the first suits were all plate metal and such, and the later suits were all nano-tech, so they were able to move and act like a second skin. 

My dad grew up in Ottawa, and his sister still lived there, so every few years, we would load up the family van and drive 18 hours north to visit. We always strolled around the Rideau Canal and Parliament Hill to get our dose of touristing in. We also once crossed the river to stroll around Gatineau and visit the…

I really didn’t give a crap about this show, but my roommate was devoted to it. She did a binge leading up to the final season, which means that I did a binge leading up to the final season.  After what happened with Bellamy, my roommate, who was only hanging on to see it through, completely quit the show altogether. …

Speed Racer (2008) hands down. Cheesy, trippy, and a lot of goddamned fun.

Krispy Kreme pumpkin spice cake donut is the ultimate edible pumpkin spice thing. A pumpkin spice candle is kind of cheating, but it is the overall winner of pumpkin spice things.

Where’s that old joke that we started seeing the Trix as puffs instead of fruit shapes because “Trix are for kids!”?
