I was def thinking on track and/or running up an Interstate off ramp. In town I've never really considered failure a threat for the reasons you listed, but always have that nagging thought in the back of my mind every corner and exit.

I have some pretty trippy/terrifying dreams, but the only ones that have left me in a cold sweat are the dreams where my brakes fail. In dream land I can calmly storm Omaha Beach, but whatever it is about brakes failing immediately trips my brain's "scared shitless" switch. Brake failure is fucking terrifying.

It must be a nice perk. Meanwhile, the rest of us cower in fear of a sudden, life-ending lane change.

I DD a first gen CRX (8" longer wheelbase, 2' longer overall) and maintain that everyone should drive a barebones, tiny car at least once in their life. There's nothing like driving a pop can next to an angry Suburban to illustrate why defensive driving and mutual respect are so important.

Good Lord. It behaves like there's traction even when in the air.

Confirming that CRXs are terrifying at speed.

Which kind of tree does the Hellcat prefer?

What you're looking for is not Ohm's law, but the equation for DC power: P=VI. But yes, LEDs are trivial loads in comparison to eccentric motors.

For some reason this album just doesn't do it for me. It SEEMS oldschool Weezer, but just doesn't have that... bare soul to it. A lot of people didn't like Raditude or the Red Album because it wasn't "OG" Weezer but I'd contend those albums had more of what makes Weezer Weezer: Rivers making the music he wants to make…

The day I bought my car might as well have been Christmas.

My checkbook can't take this. Stop. Please.

I cannot stress enough how great this state is.

For the record, the University of Sex and Drugs is looked down on, even by SDSU students.

I'll keep an eye out. Extremely slim pickings in the upper midwest though, so here's to hoping something shows up. My plastics are in equally bad shape. Funny thing, the cold is actually responsible for killing mine.

Awesome! I've got an '87 Si also, loads of fun. People (on average, even car people) REALLY underestimate the first gen Rexes. Even stock they'll kill Fox bodies on the autocross course.

So you must have a first gen Si then?

Architecture: where dreams replace physics.

Will contest. That whole album (Good News for People who Love Bad News) is gold.

It took about four hours for this campaign to make it around campus ere in SD. Probably the only good thing the DOT has done in the last five months.

As a college student in SD I can confirm that this is 1) a legit campaign and 2)wonderful joke fodder for almost-mature adults.
