Churchill was the right guy in place at the right time, but is there not a lot of revisionism about him in terms of his character?

If the USSR hadn't fallen, I feel like they would have rolled the dice on a second space race, something big to capture the nation's imagination again... they had the right combination of bugfuck insane goals, willingness to die doing something insanely manly, and "sure why not?" engineering to have a rickety colony…

Not so fast ...

To: all of those saying we should not be praising Hebdo and his organization because they ridiculed already marginalized groups. NO, THEY DID NOT. Their targets were the same as any satirist; tyrants, blowhards, and hypocrites who preach hate instead of following the tenets of their own religion. No peace loving…

The taxes aren't on displacement, but on fuel consumption. Unlike the US, we've realised that it's not actually a terribly good idea to pollute like it's going out of fashion. And because we don't have people thinking 'V8 or nothing', and design our roads better so you don't need a 0-60 time in the low 5s in order to…

$89,000? That's bullshit. These people have no sense of proportion.

Pretty efficient killer of M3's. And, really, anything else.

There is only one answer for the next car, Demuro.

And what beautiful sausages they are ...

I've never heard the phrase 'the American front' before. Did you invent it?

Just you wait.

Learn from your history. Just about 100 years ago young men in France, England and other countries were gladly marching off to fight the Huns. The first major fighting men their age had been asked to do for their countries for at least 50 years at that point. Those man fall all over themselves to sign up for the…

The thing is, it's not actually a necessary change in the law. Denmark already has laws on the books that prohibit causing an animal suffering, pain, distress or lasting harm. A point made by the president of the Danish animal ethics council.

Just knock out the backseat and mount that bitch in the trunk!

A little man slaps a big man in the face. The big man beats him to a bloody pulp with a crowbar, then beats up anyone standing near him, then complains to sympathetic bystanders about how much his face hurts now.

Speaking as an urban planner, "Mobility" represents the idea that one can easily get around by whatever mode they like. For the better part of a century, we've built our environment pretty much exclusively for the car and actively excluded everyone else. Want to walk? Tough shit, no sidewalks for you, and besides,…

I'm guessing the power to weight ratio is unimpressive, although me pointing that out digresses from my point. Again, a sports car is what you make of it: the feeling it gives you. I think of a sports car as a car with responsive and agile handling/feedback, decent power (although it's all about the power:weight,…
