You’ll probably get a lot of responses saying “It’s not that hard, just eat out less!” or “give up your daily cup of Starbucks and put it in savings!”

When I first started working at Autozone in 2009, I used my employee discount to buy every single tacky mod that appealed to me. You know the kind: stick-on carbon fiber vents, .44 magnum valve stem caps, universal-fit brushed aluminum shift knob, racing pedals, you name it. That poor IROC was the ghetto-est looking…

I normally hypermile my Corvette, but it’s mostly so I have that extra justification for winding the engine out on the occasional empty on-ramp.

Didn’t Les Schwab used to offer “free steak” if you bought 4 tires? As a kid I thought the commercials were amusing, but as an adult I realize it was probably some low-grade beef that otherwise would’ve been destined for a grinder.

Public Opinion is primed to accept Uber as being a heap of shit.

Reverse: I think the definition of a “bad” car has changed from how we used to define it. If you’re using a “bad” car from the 80's or 90's as your definition, then of course there are no bad cars anymore!

The correct answer:

Believe it or not, there are more Foresters than Outbacks or WRXs in the Hampton Roads area, where Subaru only recently started to become popular choices.

What do you think of sous-vide cooking? When sous-vide first started popping up regularly on here, I had the same impression as you did about the Instant Pot: “It’s an expensive fad that won’t stick around; it can’t be that good, since it’s just heating water.”

The last time I watched this movie was in 2005, and the one thing that’s completely unforgettable (in my mind) is Skinny Pete’s line: “You don’t mess with mother nature, mother-in-laws, or mother friggin’ Ukrainians!”

Yeah, but mine’s a WJ; I’ve got an 1100lb disadvantage on the XJ!

Hey! I never said it was junk - what it can’t do in the towing or speed department, it more than makes up for in reliability and longevity! 😝 

My wife constantly badgered my grandma for her corn casserole recipe. Like your situation, it was right there on the box! I’m not ashamed to admit that I laughed a little at my wife’s reaction to figuring this out.

Hi there! 2004 Grand Cherokee owner here; and mine’s equipped with a 4.0 six. Everything you said was spot on - if you’re going to do anything more than A-to-B everyday highway driving, you’re gonna want a V8.
