It grew up, made money, and realized it had better things to do than slum around with you anymore. It’s working out pretty well for them too; got a nice house, chill wife, and those 3 kids brought a sense of greater purpose and focus to his life. He looks back fondly time to time at the hell he used to raise...but he…

No, I explain that a) I don’t think anyone should use it and b) that it IS used and will always BE used as long as it remains in the vernacular. The definition hasn’t changed, so as long as it has the power to offend, and as long as it’s marketed and sold to people as a fucking commodity, they’re gonna use it no…

No, they haven’t. Everyone has a mother or grandmother who has told them in no uncertain terms to knock that shit off. It’s a slur, and no amount of calling each other a slur is going to make it less so in the ears of others.

Slave owners?

That word has only one purpose, which is to degrade. If it cannot be used by everyone (shouldn’t by anyone, in my view), then it’s meaning hasn’t changed. You cannot co-opt a slur; it’s never benign.

People don’t own words, that’s just not how it works.

This is “hating on black people?” They’re just singing along to a song.

This isn’t really hating on black people at all. It’s a group of girls having fun singing along to a popular song.

It’s more than fair; it exposes the basic lie in this article’s premise - calories and grams of fat do not equal health, or “better.”

This title feels very click-baity to me. The author of the twitter post never said that one of these things was “better for you”. Simply that one has less sugar and fewer calories. What about the fat content? Or the protein content? Or the glycemic index? Or the fiber content? How full is one going to make you feel…

Yes. The headline is absolutely untrue, too. Calories are not bad. Fat is not bad. These are things that our body needs, albeit in moderation. And the fact is that a muffin usually provides other nutrients that your body needs, while a donut usually does not.

No, you could shove it further forward than one click to go straight from drive to park.

Actually because for BMW and Audi, if you turn off the car, it automatically shifts into park. Which was not the case for FCA.

No one is ever gonna get the Muppets “right” again, because they’re no longer a living, breathing thing. They’ve become an excercise in pointless nostalgia, and no version is ever going to restore whatever vague quality they used to have, because that quality isn’t based on a collective memory, it’s based on millions…

Hi Michael,

this style of low effort IndyCar trolling went out of style like a decade ago, sorry

As car enthusiasts we ALL know deep down that we must defend or hoopties and bad choices with zeal. Yes, we all make bad choices, but they were OUR choices and we made them and dammit we will defend them.

Fine. I’m still going to maintain that there are a lot of better choices out there. If we go back to your first point, that they’re good for people on a tight budget, if someone really is on a tight budget and needs new decent, reliable family transportation there are lots of good options in the low 20s and high teens…

There is a Dodge dealer around the corner of my of office. I drive past it everyday. They have a couple of new Grand Caravans sitting on the lot for $18K.

I see no problem with the Challenger as it currently sits. It was given a face lift in 2014 for the 2015 MY. That is now entering its 4th year of production. Its not unreasonable to ask 5-6 years out of a style. At that point I expect either another refresh to a stout platform they have worked out the kinks on OR a…
