I wanted one of these so bad in high school. This and a Porsche 928. And a Countach. And a 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint convertible. 27 years later, maybe I should get at least one of them...

It's not M.U.L.E. without the song...
I have a former delivery truck that is a 1989 Dodge Ramcharger with a 318 V8, dual controls, but only one seat. They called it The Beast.
500 was the top trim on both the Galaxie and the Polara starting 1962, and the Fairlane and Lancer before that. It was called "500" because that's how many examples needed to be made for sale before the car could compete in NASCAR. Now, in 1962, neither company wanted to just make 500 copies of a car, so they folded…
It was an arms race, is my point. New super cars came out every few months in the 60s, completely changing the game each time. By the time all of this ended with the Superbird, it had been just 7 years since the 426 Max Wedge and the iconic Galaxy 500. That's insane.
And the Talledaga was made to beat the Charger 500, which was made to beat the Galaxy 500, which was made to beat the Max Wedge Polara, which was made to beat.......
This guy is definitely doing a bit. He's just checking too many boxes, presenting basically what a kid would think a paranoid schizophrenic angry gamer would look like. And that's probably exactly what he is. A kid, I'll bet still in high school. He stays in character, though probably not as much as you think, because…
I always assumed he had a caddy.
All three Bard's Tales were pretty much the same. You had a picture, sometimes animated, of the monster your were fighting, or one of them in a mixed group, a section with your party's status, and the actual combat was just scrolling text. You would pick your party's actions at the start of the turn, and then the…
There were a lot of goofy jokes, yeah, and Monty Python references. The Bard song that let you run away from any battle, for example, was a one channel MIDI of the song Sir Robin's minstrels sang after he ran from the three headed giant in The Holy Grail. There was also a spell that destroyed the world. It told you…
What does Wasteland 2 have, because the original Wasteland used the same system as Bard's Tales, so I'm pretty sure that will still hold.
Blessing hearts and saying "oh, honey" turn whatever horrible thing you say with them from an insult to a valid criticism.
There doesn't have to be a main Spider-Man. If they do this right, then Peter Parker will finally get to grow up, get married, and be a big time hero like the other Avengers, not dealing with the street level, teenage outsider stuff anymore. Miles would simply take on the classic Spider-Man drama.
400km is not a long journey. It's roughly the distance from Orlando to Miami.
It's like speaker cables, it gives people the ability to brag not only about their system, but how finely trained their body is that THEY can tell the difference, and you can't.
Manuals were still standard on most American cars in the 90s, too.
That's actually the third gen of Novas. The original was an high optioned Chevy II, which was a little shit box cranked out in 1962 to compete with the Ford Falcon.
I had an 82 and considering the condition it was in when I got it, it was a fantastic car. It was a hand-me-down, I thought it was just a gussied up Camry and everything I found out about while I owned it was a surprise.
But wait! You suddenly notice the car actually has a dealer license plate frame and a little dealer badge on the trunk that says something like Jimmy Smith Chevrolet: Don't Even Try to Beat a Jimmy Smith Deal, Or We'll Cut Off Your Thumbs! It's at this point you remember something crucial: some people still buy the…
You say that, until some guy in a tuned Accord tries to take you off a light and you beat him accidentally...
