A bunch of people have said that - but isn’t this guy in Ireland or England? I’m willing to bet that any rust free examples there are gonna cost the earth. It’s not like he could take a cheap flight to Nevada and drive a cheap desert dry example back. 

I didn’t care for him in Workaholics (but his character was just too far over the frat boy dudebro side of the line for my tastes), but he’s okay here. His timing’s pretty good and he’s not nearly as douchey with everyone as I assumed he’d be (and his sniping at McBride’s character is pretty funny). 

I see them all the time here in the Chicago area (to be fair there’s a lake nearby, but it ain’t salty). 

You just know that a lot of these knuckleheads took their Keurigs out in the yard, set up their iPhones, parroted back some Fox News whining points, smashed up the coffeemaker, posted the video to YouTube or Twitter or whatever, felt super proud of themselves, and had to go out and buy another Keurig when their…

The book “The Girls of Murder City” would make a good basis for an actual drama about this if one hasn’t already been made. (I’m sure it’s been pitched if not actually made)

*Yes, I know about “Chicago”. 

I caught Adventure Wife on Skinemax the other night. It still holds up. 

FWIW, I was like fourteen in 1986, and I knew that a hoagie and a sub sandwich were the same thing. The Count of Monte Whatever hasn’t got an excuse, except stupidity. 

Lighting dork checking in! Your take is exactly right - the store I work at uses the LED ones in some of our fixtures (we have several that are rustic enough that they look best with a squirrel cage bulb), but they look best on a pendant that you’re not looking too closely at. The LED bars are thicker, and it’s…

For real he looks like Al Bundy when Peg wants to fuck.

My folks had a Cavalier wagon similar to that (probably an ‘83 or 4). I didn’t think anything of it till they bought a new Honda Accord in 1987, which was light years ahead of the Chevy in every single way - I could tell that just being a passenger.

I’m not a Jeep guy (old school or otherwise) and I don’t like them either. Aside from the way they look (the proportions are way off), I imagine that the extra weight and length probably doesn’t do the handling and off roading any favors either (stock at least. And I readily admit that I’ve not done a whole lot of…

This theory makes perfect sense, especially in light of that “the wind stops and the television goes off” nonsense. Back in the 80's, I remember a television commercial for, I dunno, ComEd or something, and it featured a Depression era family working on a farm, and the farmer hears a faint squeaking noise. He looks up…

I have two memories about the Star Wars release in 1999. The first is that, even though I loved the original three films, Episode One was kind of boring and didn’t spark the same wonder as Empire did when I first saw it as a kid (by 1999 I was in my mid twenties). It put me completely off the idea of even seeing any…

A coworker’s favorite insult was “You hemorrhoid.” A surprising number of people needed that translated to “pain in the ass”. 

The prhase is “The first pancake is always spoiled”. 

Well, in 1973 you could just go buy a new Travelall.

Honestly, with the sorts of things you’ve accomplished with your Moab projects, this one seems like a slice of the baked good of your choice. 

Similarly, there’s the “black out” game. This is where a car is driving around without it’s lights on at night, and if you flash your lights at it to get them to turn them on, it does a U turn, follows you, then when you stop a bunch of “gangbangers” (ie, nonwhite people) jump out and murder you, as a gang initiation.

Two reasons:

The CRX is really one of those cars that just disappeared over the course of like five years. I had an ‘89 Si, which I got in 1993 for like five grand, having just been traded in on a then new Del Sol. They weren’t super common around here but you would see them often enough - when I got rid of it in 1999 you’d still…
