Fantastic narrative, Chris, I enjoyed this a ton.

The Death Star was totally only a render, too.

I love me some big fenders.

I have a friend from Montana and he brought the most awesome fruit salad ever to a thanksgiving. It was actually called snickers salad and was made of fruit, whipping cream, and chunks of snickers. Montana wins in my book.

A couple things: I don't think this route goes into the Olympics at all.

Is this going to be another instance of the manufacturers releasing the car as lease only, very limited units in very limited states?

Man, I was gonna do the crx!

Please make a zoomed gif of whatever bud selig is doing.

Do they still offer this? I can't find it on their site.

I want to see more of those two guys playing tug-of-war over the jersey.

I found an LP with the same name/from the same era at my girlfriend's aunts house. Ever since I found it, I was thinking I needed to get it on Jalopnik.

an Aussie friend taught me "fucknuckle."

You realize that if they would have scored on any of the first ten excellent saves by Howard, the game would have not gone to extra time, and we wouldn't have scored our one, right? Cool. Wouldn't want to insult your intelligence or anything.

My favorite is Croque Canelle, the Canadian version. It has one crunch giving another cinnalingus.

This is hilarious too:

Some of those people (like me in WA) go into the mountains several times a week and need them. But I agree with you, too, I just got studless (xi3) this year and they're actually much better - performance on snow/slush is the same and on pavement in the city is much, much better.

It wasn't exactly the car I wanted, but close - so I'm about a month in on a 2014 WRX 5-door without nav, highest trim level. Seats are awesome (they are heated) radio is simple and works every time with my iphone over Bluetooth. I test drove 3-series and an allroad to replace my e46, and both had so much e-crap that…

You can't hear it from the TV coverage, but after "the bombs bursting in air" the whole stadium started to join in with her. It got pretty loud near the end, definitely the loudest sing-along I've heard at a sporting event.
