So you’re telling me the entire fucking movie climaxes in Mario sponsoring a product placement for a Mario-themed packaged rice condiment? I’ll stick with my gritty American version, because I trust the fungus thankyouverymuch.

I understand where you’re coming from, and sure with exceptions like old hardware breaking down but like, fear of missing out is the reason why companies do shady crap like false scarcity, and the same reason why the scalping problem has gotten as bad as it is. There’s nothing wrong with wanting a thing because you’re…

ah, but you may find people are the real horrifying space monster.

Yeah, that message gets real old— which is why I tend to dislike zombie media properties. There's only so many times this point can be reiterated. No shit, people suck, give me a monster people have to work together to fight, like some horrifying space monster.

Hopefully that goes to some good mushroom zombie action - I’m kind of tired of the post-apocalyptic “people are the REAL monsters” angle.

I stuck a fork in the Passat the moment they made the U.S. version different to the European one. The slightly smaller and sportier Passat sold globally was the better car. Like stereotype of Americans the TN produced one was fat and lazy.

I miss my Wolfsburg made VR6 5spd Passat Wagon. I let it go for a song, and…

There are two Mercedes dealers in the state of montana and I know the one in Missoula sucks. Most people on the western side of the state that want a “Foreign” car shop in Spokane or the Seattle area. Those dealers are used to dealing with people from montana and also don’t charge the sales tax.

Hmmm...

They don’t really release exclusives because people like it. They do it to sell consoles. 

Or at least save the Rylon Star League

If it makes you feel any better “(digital tire gauge joke can burn in hell)“ gave me quite a chuckle.

Oh, I know exactly what you’re talking about. I miss those days. Even Defector.com comments have mostly lost that kind of humor, there’s moments, but most of it is just puns or self-righteousness.

I really appreciate Mazda’s commitment to branding.

Everyone outside the U.S. is wrong. Getting super into things is fun.

Most people in politics are too narcissistic to see a re-election loss coming. Heck, some don’t even realize it for many months afterward. 

Gahd Tesla/Ol’ Muskie stans are obnoxious.
