You know it's not like those profits go untaxed, right?

Can we get a #COTD here?

Price: How much of a food snob are you? Going to MSR-Houston via West from Austin is a bit out of the way, dude.

you're going to need to expand upon that incomplete thought as I don't follow in the least.

That's not how it works. "Donating" to universities creates a giant liability for BMW, a liability that has reared its ugly head with other automakers in the past. It's not like they're just being wasteful assholes for the sake of being wasteful assholes.

JOEY MOD!!!!111!1!!!!juanjuan!!111!1juan!11!

God, rabid barely scrapes the surface. Vapid, moronic, repugnant, obtuse...I could exhaust the resources of a thesaurus in describing that little slice of shit.

I know what you're thinking. The wagon is the chemex of automobiles, a seemingly outmoded machine for people who walk that narrow line between purists and assheads. It's a joke amongst auto writers that all we want is a "brown diesel wagon."

Honestly, almost everything in that 1/4 mile east of K-H is great. Victor Tangos is great for a tapas-style experience, Sissy's is excellent Southern/Home cooking, the Porch is always great even if crowded and bro-y. I want to like Velvet Taco but it's just been super middle of the road every time I've gone.

This, although I presume Ms. Horton wrote this with a certain level of tongue planted in cheek and a certain amount of pent up frustration being vented.

Why would Californians move to California?

I have a better idea: since the inhabitants of Uptown have taken it upon themselves to start venturing east and ruin the wonderful oasis that is East Dallas, why don't you Californians just come move right in and take the skyrocketing property values to new heights?

You can delete the first three words of your sentence and you've still got something worth saying.

Which of those circular definitions are you attempting to leverage here? You want to use "ethics" or "right/wrong" as proof of a definition? Neither of those terms is ambiguous, for certain.

Nor is the existence of correlation equal to causality.

"Ethics" are not universal and exist on a continuum. Two of the three "analogues" you posted involve legitimate, undeniable violation of another person's will; they're not analogues to cigarettes at all.

Because it influences the choice of cigarette. You can smoke any cigarette; why not make it a winning, well-liveried one?

Then how have those of us who have watched 20+ years of tobacco sponsorship in racing managed to avoid the perils of cigarettes? Are we just special? Has the advertising voodoo simply not worked on us because we're magically anti-kryptonite?

"Higher moral standard" is an entirely ambiguous term.

Just look at this adorable little thing soar!
