I once came across a bunch of brand new, abandoned MG and Rover products sitting under an overpass in downtown Beijing. This was about 15 years ago, in 2005/2006 when that company’s future was totally up in the air.

it sounds, based on the comment, that the people who were fired were not those responsible for the actual design, you goddamned melon

I’d argue the EB110 was a bigger flop than the XJ220. It was overly complicated with all-wheel drive and four turbos, they built far fewer of them than the Jaguar, they were constantly tweaking the design even after the first cars had reached customers, and it failed to create a launching pad to resurrect the Bugatti…

I know I’m getting it flamed for this, but one of the things about this particular subject that has always fascinated me is the fact that no one seems to have noticed how difficult it was to sell vehicles like this back in the 80s and 90s. Regardless of how good they were. When these hypercars first started to appear,…

I hope you never have license to "write" another "article" for AV.Club.

Sorry, the part of your post where you named them got cut off.  Damn Kinja!

I’m not sure Aaliyah would have made a great Freddie, but I guess we’ll never know.

But, if each nation only had 100, an aggressor might feel they could neutralize say, 90 or 95 of them with an effective first strike.

Listen carefully to Bill Clinton’s opening line. This is just an illumination of compressed bullshit operating on about three different levels, both surface level bullshit, and lurking hidden bullshit.

Looks great. But you have to admit that at the very least they were... “inspired” by the MacBook Pro, right?

I think I can speak for millions of so-called millennials with a resounding, “Who?”

I can’t help but be amused by the fact that right under this article on of the “Recommended Stories” from the A.V. Club being suggested to me is “Everything Wrong with Zak Snyder’s Sucker Punch” — which is a Great Job, Internet, linking straight to a CinemaSins video.

She should also get a medal for the best genuine reaction to winning.

The sun gets slightly hotter as it ages. Every year, it adds a fraction of a percent of “brightness” ie. solar radiative output such that every one hundred million years, the sun becomes 1% brighter. To put this in perspective, 1 billion years ago, the sun was ~10% less bright than it is today. A billion years from…

I want to buy this and put a fiberglass Fiero body panel kit on it

It also came with a car key that was a cat. A cat named after a sumo wrestler. I am not making this up.

Are you unaware of the difference between "discrete" and "discreet", or taking the piss? Bear in mind that sarcasm sometimes doesn't travel well over the 'net.

…Jeez, that was pathetic.

Flurpst!
It's my first first!
