True but only about a decade of those 29 years you are viable to work a full time well paying job. Age eventually start catching up to most people and business are ageist as fuck. Hell in the corporate world you are lucky to not be getting pushed out the door at 55. Then you are looking for a new job and running the…

I agree that 55 isn’t “that” old but you can’t, for example, make risky financial decisions and expect to recover. Switching careers becomes much more difficult since recruiters can be pretty ageist. And while there are plenty of 55 year old people in great shape, that assumes you have been taking care of yourself the…

Those 29 years look a lot different to a 55-year old than a 15- or 25-year old. It’s not as easy to change, for multiple reasons.

TIL questioning whether a 55-year old has a lot of time to make changes implies I don’t think 55-year olds have wants, needs, and ambitions. Thanks for teaching an old dog new tricks!

It’s $3,500.00. If you want a manual wagon, something (subjectively) “cool,” it’s only thirty-five hundred dollars.  For me, this is in the range of cost where it’s cheap enough that if you like it, and it’s isn’t clearly a steaming pile of shit, it’s a NP.

Having owned the lesser powered 92 Escort single side mirror base model, I can say these things are fairly bulletproof. I’m surprisingly good with this project car and the price seems fair enough. I don’t care for the black wheels but that’s an easy fix and the fact it’s been all tested is a plus for me. NP for me.

Heroes?

Yakov Smirnoff is now Jerry Heineken.

Considering that this ride closed several years ago, and there’s a brutal war going on right now, we can’t even blame this on a slow news day. Why, exactly, is this coming up now?

Wait until you see what they’ve got planned for Splash Mountain.

I rewatched Big Mouth recently, and found that as the seasons progressed it felt really overstuffed with all the different mood creatures. I almost wish they had simply had the hormone monsters and demonstrated everything with them to streamline it. But I still enjoy the show so I’m cautiously optimistic about the…

My least favorite part of Big Mouth is every character voiced by Nick Kroll. Especially Rick and Coach Steve. Fuck those guys. I’ll give Maurice a little leeway, and as much as Lola annoys me, she blindsides me with some of the funniest lines in the show. (I don’t know why, but “Lola’s right here, you fucking brussel…

I understand, I work in finance, we do loans (including yachts) where the asset is purchased in the name of a business. But we’re still required to disclose to the government who owns the business that owns the asset. Things are probably different outside the U.S.

How is it even legal to keep ownership confidential from the authorities?

Upload hardly made a splash when it came out a couple years ago, and was previously barely remarked upon on the AV Club (I think it got a fairly tepid season review and was never mentioned again). And yet today we get both a glowing review and an in-depth primer. Is Amazon throwing money around to generate buzz or…

Yeah- I didn’t understand how they put alcohol in her system to verify it was a DUI, but only enough she could easily come out of it? Just put a whole bottle in her if you’re going to do that and no one’s going to wake up that quickly from being that drunk. And yeah Fran magically being OK and not even needing to go…

was it all a fantasy after the car wreck? so frustrated how such a good movie shit the bed so bad :(

Yeah somehow I feel like that can’t be the ending they started out with. Like they tested the movie with audiences and got some feedback and went back and re-wrote it. Cuz wtf was that.

something about a multimillionaire drug lord who is extra precautious being outwitted in 15 minutes seemed off.

**SPOILER ALERT**
