Uh. Wat? Explain dis.

My pullover is from J. Crew, thank you very much. The only time I eat kale is in salads, and if I have a bagel, it’s loaded with smoked salmon and capers alongside an Americano at my weekly Cars and Coffee.

This is probably the most complete explanation of why I chose to buy the G37S 6MT over the 3.8 Genny 6MT. I love the lines of the Genesis, I love the specs on paper, but you get in and it just feels...... cheap.

A star for your reference to a favorite holiday film of mine. Now PUT THAT COOKIE DAUWNUH!

Am I the only one who things the U-Wing looks like a Snow Speeder, not a Y-Wing?

Airport photographer here - I’ve seen an Air France A380 go around in person - it’s impressive. Not sure the reason they went around when I saw it. The 380 is a very cool aircraft.

Those Porsche wheels never bothered me; I actually like them. The NSX though... tsk. I always found the massive blob and ACURA text to take away from the interior look. If they have to have text, I think it should have been NSX. Read more

The car is referred to as “Penny the Talking Limo,” likely in reference to Chrysler’s then-current electronic voice-alert system, the place where 90% of Generation X Americans learned the meaning of the word “ajar.”

Did anyone think to check out these three suspects?

Sooo... disappearing camera pod? Camera pod is in every shot except 0:30. Ground / exterior only shot(s) before cutting to retrofit the camera pod?

I’m very happy I just bought my 6MT four months ago. Loving every minute of it, and no, I am not a douchcanoe as the comments would imply (there IS that crowd, usually with horrid mods, but I am not part of that community). Mine is remaining stock, and being babied (yet enjoyed).

So it's a Cylon.

If you are going to the airport, you wouldn’t use the Dulles Toll Road; you’d be using the 100% free Dulles Airport Access Highway, which is basically an expressway to and from the airport. If you were paying to drive to the airport, you were doing it wrong.

I had both; the Saturn was the system after the Genesis. I jumped ship when the N64 came out though - I don't know anyone who had a Dreamcast. Read more

Clearly I have new driving music now...

This game was so amazingly awful. How many hundreds of hours did it consume in my childhood? How my parents didn't take away my Sega Saturn and smash it to bits after hearing this "song" time after time is beyond me.

It's a "Shuttle Carrier Aircraft" or SCA... not Space Shuttle Carrier. Read more

Wait. So Batman defeated Scarecrow, the Joker, Two-Face, Bane, Talia al Ghul and the entire League of Shadows, but gets his newest ride stolen by some Detroit hooligans? Must be like his mother's necklace... or that one time Robin took it for a midnight test drive:

Damnit! I was going to post this!

The bad part about Maryland is the number of speed cameras they have. In my experience, Maryland patrols even more than Virginia, particularly as you cross from Virginia into Maryland. I've (somehow) never gotten a speeding ticket in my life, but Maryland has always seemed to enforce more, even if Virginia's… Read more
