Back in college, my best friend’s girlfriend had a Mirage (probably a ‘93 or ‘94) that was a manual. She let me drive a few times when we were all going to some place that I knew how to get there, and I remember it being fun as hell to drive. It was probably because it was so easy to shift gears I felt like I was some…

I’m surprised Texas isn’t on here with the morbid streak of at least one highway death every single day since 11/7/00 (8674 days and counting).

I would like to add: if you’re going straight at a red light on a multi-lane street and there is zero to little traffic, don’t get in the right lane. Some people want to make that right on red, especially if you’re the only two cars around.

Just got back from a weekend trip (2.5 hour flight each way on AA), and somehow got some of the best airplane rest I’ve had in years. The sides of the headrest bent in way more than any I’ve had before, so it basically made a taco shell around my head. Of course, it helps that I’m short (5'6"ish) and the seats seemed…

When someone says “Large American Sedans”, I think of my grandparents’ 1975 two-door LTD. It was a darker shade of brown, but this is close:

I didn’t remember that until I read your comment, thanks for putting that back in my head.

Yeah, Beavis & Butthead was my first exposure to GWAR - probably 1993 or 1994.

And don’t forget Deadspin completely imploding over the course of what seemed like a few weeks. I know there was probably more lead up to it, but it seemed to come to a head when they banned 100+ users for calling out a writer for doing no research purely for the purpose of posting a short, snarky article.

When my mom decided to get HBO in 1990 (as a 15-year-old, I was very happy about that), this was on all the time and I loved it. It quickly became a favorite. About a year ago, I watched a chunk of it and was surprise that I still enjoyed it. Is it dumb? Absolutely. Do I have a fantastic ability to suspend disbelief?…

Glenn’s death and the waterlogged zombie intestines on Hershel’s farm are the main two examples I use when talking about how ridiculous US standards and practices is. God forbid you show an areola though. Merica!

When I read that, I thought “ooh, now this is getting interesting”.

...fellow Western enthusiast Clint Eastwood (who, by the way, directed Costner’s most impressive performance in A Perfect World).

But is there a Lee Majors cameo?

Hopefully we get a Lee Majors cameo.

My first job out of college was at the Motiva Convent refinery. Since it was a commute from Baton Rouge, my future team lead picked me up for my interview day. On the way home, we took a road that runs perpendicular to the plant and a good 3-4 miles away. I had always heard of cancer alley growing up, so I thought…

Weekend at Bernie’s

Technically, he is succesful at his job, but his self-doubt (and two idiots) drives him insane and likely to never do another job.

I’m kind of shocked there isn’t one from somewhere in this area. There’s a lot of open road. Granted there are not a lot of cops to cover it, and of course, you can’t get a ticket if there isn’t a speed limit (late ‘90s Montana).

People tend to have issues with nepo babies when there’s big money involved. Child of a famous actor? Nepo baby. Fourth generation owner of a plumbing company or seventh generation bourbon distillery owner? Reliable and reputable.

I’ve always loved 28 Weeks Later. It took me a couple years to get around to watching it because I thought it was just dumb, should’ve-gone-straight-to-video sequel. But it turned out way better than it had any right to be. The cast is great and it’s always good for a rewatch.
