At what point was I whiney?

The idea is that your mom gave you the car, so you’d have a nice thing to drive. And you’d break her poor heart of you just sold it - she tried so hard to find you something nice. So you have to pretend you would be stuck with the car, just like you had to pretend someone would give you a car as a gift. Now show some…

No doubt! I posted in the suggestion for the Cobalt that the Pontiac Sunfire (the nightmarish offspring of a Cavalier and Satan) was far worse - and I deny anyone to make a claim otherwise. You want a shitbox with no redeeming quality? Sunfire/Cavalier certainly is higher on the list than Cobalt.

I really come from a different place on this than a lot of people, apparently. I remember Wards selling these the cheapest way possible to get on a bike. It’s like drooling over a base model Escort - or lower really. It looks like a kids toy to me... by no means stylish or desirable. It’s obviously as utilitarian as…

I see your Sebring and raise you... a Sunfire! Pontiac took the shittiest car (Cavalier) and somehow made it worse. Too crappy to even hoon into death. It’d be like hooning a broken, dirty recliner.

“They handle excellent considering the weight.”

Was the ride that hard even on the comfort setting? Test drove a sedan a while back and agree about the turning radius - but don’t remember the ride being overly harsh except in the advance setting.

You made me laugh - I can only hope it was on purpose. :)

How did no one mention the “magmanauts” yet? By far the most awesome term made up for sci-fi I have ever heard. Also, most ridiculous. I assume they can see through magma in the movie?

We’re not that different. I am an over-researcher, post-regret filled type. My dislike for people who avoid unpleasant things does not stem from an ignorance of experiencing that - it comes from going through it. People who are natural trigger pullers don’t need to be reminded that avoiding hard decisions does not…

I was trying to figure out how to say most of what you said here. Thanks. And props to you for admitting that a lot of the ambivalence comes from avoiding fear. I see way too many people doing this - putting off decisions, ignoring the true cause of things because it’s unpleasant.

Ha! Hilarious. And I am the result of a failed vasectomy. Well, Dad had three tubes - apparently an uncommon (but not crazy rare) occurance and they did not do a follow up sperm count. Hooray for me. Mom told me once she was made the first eight months of the pregnancy. Not the best news, but I’d rather have an angry…

Ugh, don’t be jealous. Being a super thin dude is not really desirable - and when you have that metabolism, any gym work is an excersice in futility. Be jealous of Ryan Reynolds body if you feel the need.

The Victorian men knew about periods - but had some crazy ideas about it. If I remember correctly, women were to avoid the kitchen as they thought menstration would make bread and other food spoil. They all knew all the same things we did, they just had most of the scientific reasons wrong and didn’t talk about them…

Still hilarious.

Hahaha. My favorite comment type. Translation: “It’s not that bad - with continuous and careful care, you can get 50K miles of low torque, not very exciting driving before it eats itself.”

That’s not a phobia. You don’t have the condition - and you do not understand the condition. So please, yourself. Don’t simply dismiss the reality of what a phobia can do to someone. Glib statements like yours are what continues a cycle of shame and unfair treatment of mental illnesses. Why do you get to pass such…

You don’t have a true phobia of heights - or yours is not very severe. You are using your own case as a basis for how others experience something. It’s great that you don’t have an irritional and uncontrollable fear of something (and worrying about falling is not the same as acrophobia, everyone worries about…

This is super sweet, but the picture has me laughing - their expression’s have me thinking of a dialogue between the two of them:

I voted crack pipe. It’s not nice looking, it’s really not practical in any meaningful way (it can carry two people and maybe 50 lbs of random crap I have to lift out of the back - and likely won’t make it up a hill with that load), it’s by no means fun to drive. Unique? Yes. But that doesn’t mean anything when all…
