I am going to guess that the ‘pushing the car back to the paddocks’ was staged for dramatic effect. But the 55 mile range I believe to be 100% true. Most likely the car went to limp mode and obviously that wasn’t very dramatic.

pre-COVID, pre Spotify JRE content was great.. because no one had the breadth of guests that Joe pulled in.. and did a solid job asking decent questions to get a conversation going, but these days he has utterly lost touch with humanity and will gladly barrel through guests to keep going down whatever path he wants,…
So remember, if a dealer says you’re approved, make sure you check to see that you’re actually approved before you leave with that car.
“He appeared on several addiction-based reality shows with Dr. Drew Pinsky: Celebrity Rehab 1, Celebrity Rehab 2, Sober House 1, and Sober House 2.”
“Rehab” was her only top 40 hit in the US, so people who stick to top 40 radio only may have not known much about her as well.
Assuming you’re American, she kinda died before she was able to hit a true cultural escape velocity a la your Madonnas or Britneys. I feel like if you didn’t listen to mainstream radio between maybe 2006-2009 it was possible to completely miss her. (Probably a different case in the UK though—sounds like their…
“Everything is not a dog whistle”
I love that the same folks who thought Colin Kaepernick should have been banned from football for his political opinions are the same ones who now think companies shouldn’t fire employees for being assholes like Gina Carano.
The Founding Fathers, in their great wisdom, knew that one day we’d need a mechanism for dealing with Gina Carano’s bullshit.
Jesus christ the PC entitlement crowd is out in force today.
And I say that as someone who has a gaming PC.
Sure they are. They aren’t actually a totally closed community like folks think; they interact with the outside world. They mostly just dress differently and don’t generally use electricity or gas engines (although they may be allowed to hire others to use them for them, like buying bus tickets). A lot of things you…
I’m not an expert in international copyright law, but I am fairly certain that the many international treaties and agreements signed over the years covers the “well we’re not selling it there” defense.
Nintendo is a Japanese company, Japan has different laws regarding copyright, Valve does business in Japan, has Japanese customers, and works with Japanese companies.
“And so it was sort of like my daughter’s future, which meant I had to break the law.”
As someone who watched the movie Yentl last week, I feel I’m in a special position to know that . . .
Kenneth, between this post and the opening paragraph of your post about Shadow in the next Sonic movie, I am becoming genuinely concerned about you. Unless all of it is tongue in cheek and you’re just playing it 100% straight for amusement, I hope you’re getting some help with some of this shit.
congrats on writing something that made even me say “geez, lay off Jack Antonoff!”
I see this sentiment sometimes and it always irks me. The nature of TV narrative is *not the same* as film narrative. You shouldn't compare the experiences as a 1:1. The expectations are different, the nature of the plot and character progression are different, the structure is different... It's not apples and oranges…
you seem to miss the point
