Didn't know that piece of trivia!

...or the classic VW Bug in a more general sense, at least.

All but word for word one of the lines regarding Kojima's Z from the project car track-battle in the rain. Bravo.

While I agree on principle, look at the target demographics for the ones which remain: Motor Trend (which it seems is the overall parent to a bunch of these) can serve as the general catch-all for automotive content, it seems to aim at the general car enthusiasts who also grew up with “Road & Track” or “Car and…

Coleman was the best foil imaginable for Kojima—someone who could goad the latter of those two into tearing away from the data and physics of it all to talk some damn trash. I’ve dearly missed Dave Coleman’s writing since he left to work for Mazda.

Same. I’m surprised there wasn’t more than one tuner subculture mag left, but I suppose that’s geared towards the younger demographic such that it would have been the first to see its audience migrate to online-content only. I remember when I just finished college and I think “Sport Compact Car,” “Import Tuner,” and…

I'm sure you'd find a way to make some great content with that, yes.

Patrick, I still remember one year where the Gawker sites rotated for a week and wrote pieces for topics relating to a subject outside their wheelhouse: Jez swapped with Lifehacker, A.V. Club did pieces normally handled by Deadspin, something like that (sorry that I can’t dig up example links in the search function).…

(Thanks for playing along.)

“Hey Farva, what’s the name of that restaurant with the mozzarella sticks and the goofy shit on the walls?”

Get fucked and shut your asshole-mouth. I’m not wasting any more effort on you than that.

You’re calling Mormons and Muslims a cult? Even though I don't ascribe to either faith, I’m done with you—get fucked and go to hell.

You’ve got a lot going on in that last reply, so I’ll try to get to as much as I can: is your first contention that the age of the religion or the number of followers is somehow proportional to legitimacy? Because if so, anything prior to about 2,000 years ago, the world contained precisely zero Christians—they were va…

What’s your authoritative evidence that the Flying Spaghetti Monster (of Pastafarianism, check Wikipedia if you're unfamiliar) doesn’t exist?

So very impressive—he didn’t just hold it together for the last couple of laps, but hung on consistently.

Yet again, I'm thankful for your words and perspective. I don't even know what else to say right now, I'll just try to keep listening and to internalize what I can to help however I can.

I understand your point, but if a gymnast hits their intended target on the mat face-first with the dismount, it’s hardly perfect.

Didn't stick the landing, though--that's gotta cost some points off the final score.

Honest-to-God, this was my progression just now:

I see your minibikes and raise you a drift car!
